What measures the distance between two consecutive crests of a wave?
Marina86 [1]
Answer A is incorrect
A crest is just one point. It is not the distance between 2 crests.

B  is incorrect
A trough is just 1 point. It is not the distance between 2 troughs.

C is incorrect.
the amplitude measures the height of a crest from the middle of the wave to the crest (or trough).

D is the correct answer. That is the distance between 2 crests or 2 troughs

The heating system in Jeff and Tony's new home takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower. What
-BARSIC- [3]

If it takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower, the type of heat transfer is convection heat transfer.

<h3>What is heat transfer by convection?</h3>

Convection is the transfer of heat from one place to another due to the movement of fluid.

During heat transfer by convection, cold air replaces hot risen air.

Thus, if it takes cool air and passes it through the heat source using a fan or blower, the type of heat transfer is convection heat transfer.

Student pushes a 50 N block across the floor for a distance of 15 m how much work was done to move the block
Talja [164]

Answer:

750 J

Explanation:

We have a student that pushes a 50N block  across the floor for a distance of 15m. The question is asking how much work was done to move the block.

To solve this, we must know that we are looking for a certain thing called joules. And to get the answer, we must follow the formula of W = FS

F being the force and S being the distance.

W = FS

W = (50)(15)

W = 750

Therefore, 750 joules is our answer.

The cylinder in the picture is rotating at 500 RPMs. The friction coefficients between the cylinder and block B are static=0.5 a
Tju [1.3M]

  • Coefficient of static friction = 0.5
  • Coefficient of Kinetic friction = 0.3
  • Angular velocity = 500 RPMs

<h3>The Radius of the System</h3>

Let R be the radius of cylinder

m_a + m_b = 4 + 3 = 7kg

The angular velocity is 500 RPMs

\omega ^2 = \frac{500 * 2\pi}{60} rad/s\\N = (M_a + M_b)\omega ^2 R

The normal force

f = \mu N = (M_a + M_b) g\\\mu (M_a + M_b) \omega ^2 R = M_a + M_b\\R = \frac{1}{\mu \omega ^2 R}\\\mu_s = 0.5\\R = \frac{1}{0.5 * (\frac{500 * 2\pi}{60})^2 }\\R = 0.0073m\\R = 7.3mm

Since the radius is very little for two block to execute circular motion so system will slide down.
