   Power = (voltage) x (current)

   = (120 volts) x (8.4 Amperes)

   = 1,008 watts .

What relationship exists between the amplitude of a wave and amount of disturbance in the water?

guapka [62]

A wave is a result of the disturbance in the equilibrium state. There are two types of wave, transverse and longitudinal. Transverse wave affects amplitude while longitudinal wave affects the frequency of the wave. As for the transverse wave, the magnitude of the perpendicular disturbance of the wave is directly proportional to the amplitude of the wave. The higher the transverse disturbance the higher the amplitude.

A 65.8-kg person throws a 0.0413 kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 32.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 58.7 kg, c

guapka [62]

Answer:

$v_{1} = 2.490\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v_{2} = 0.023\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The statement is described physically by means of the Principle of Momentum Conservation. Let assume that first person moves in the positive direction:

First Person

$(65.8\,kg)\cdot (2.51\,\frac{m}{s}) = (65.8\,kg)\cdot v_{1} + (0.0413\,kg)\cdot (32.5\,\frac{m}{s} )$

Second Person

$(0.0413\,kg)\cdot (32.5\,\frac{m}{s})+(58.7\,kg)\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s})=(0.0413\,kg+58.7\,kg)\cdot v_{2}$

The final velocities of the two people after the snowball is exchanged is:

$v_{1} = 2.490\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v_{2} = 0.023\,\frac{m}{s}$

Starting from rest, a particle that is confined to move along a straight line is accelerated at a rate of 5.0 m/s2. Which one of

Elanso [62]

Answer:

c) The slope is not constant and increases with increasing time.

Explanation:

The equation for the position of this particle (starting from rest is)

$s = at^2/2 = 5t^2/2 = 2.5t^2$

We can take derivative of this with respect to time t to get the equation of slope:

$s' = (2.5t^2)' = 2*2.5t = 5t$

As time t increase, the slope would increases with time as well.

Debbie places two shopping carts in a cart Corral. she pushes the first cart, which then pushes a second cart. what force is bei

Bingel [31]

When Debbie pushes the first cart she is using an applied force. An applied force is created when someone or something pushes another thing using, of course, an applied force. Now, when the second cart is being pushed by the first cart, this is also an applied force. You can tell because the first cart is being pushed using forced and this causes the second cart to be pushed using some of the force that is being transmitted to the first cart.

Debbie exerts applied force on the first cart. The first cart exert applied force on the second cart.

Nostrana [21]

The values with (1/2)(9.8 m/s2) (4 - X)^2 = (1.7 × 10^8 m/s) (X) —> We discover with the calculator X = 4.40 × 10^-7. The depth of the ice is then calculated by multiplying by the speed 74.8 m. Through ice, radio waves move at a speed of 1.7 x 108 m/s.

What is radio waves?

A radio wave pulse that is delivered into the Antarctic ice returns after reflecting off the bottom rock. A radio wave pulse that is transmitted into the Antarctic ice bounces off the subsurface rock and resurfaces. ice in Antarctica Through ice, radio waves move at a speed of 1.7 108 m/s. The rock reflects the radio wave pulse that was transmitted into the Antarctic ice. The amount of time that passed between the signal being sent and being received by the earth station.
