Answer:

The disturbance of molecules are perpendicular to wave motion

Explanation:

Transverse waves: in transverse waves all the medium moles vibrates perpendicular to the wave motion such that the net displacement of all molecules are zero.

While in longitudinal waves all the molecules will oscillate in the direction of wave propagation. All molecules transfer the energy from one point to other point while oscillating parallel to the wave propagation direction.

Two charged concentric spherical shells have radii of 11.0 cm and 14.0 cm. The charge on the inner shell is 3.50 ✕ 10−8 C and th

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field are $2.38\times10^{4}\ N/C$ and $1.09\times10^{4}\ N/C$

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of inner shell = 11.0 cm

Radius of outer shell = 14.0 cm

Charge on inner shell $q_{inn}=3.50\times10^{-8}\ C$

Charge on outer shell $q_{out}=1.60\times10^{-8}\ C$

Suppose, at r = 11.5 cm and at r = 20.5 cm

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field at r = 11.5 cm

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}$

Where, q = charge

k = constant

r = distance

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times3.50\times10^{-8}}{(11.5\times10^{-2})^2}$

$E=2.38\times10^{4}\ N/C$

The total charge enclosed by a radial distance 20.5 cm

The total charge is

$q=q_{inn}+q_{out}$

Put the value into the formula

$q=3.50\times10^{-8}+1.60\times10^{-8}$

$q=5.1\times10^{-8}\ C$

We need to calculate the magnitude of the electric field at r = 20.5 cm

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times5.1\times10^{-8}}{(20.5\times10^{-2})^2}$

$E=1.09\times10^{4}\ N/C$

Hence, The magnitude of the electric field are $2.38\times10^{4}\ N/C$ and $1.09\times10^{4}\ N/C$

An electron shell can hold 2(n^2) electrons (technically) where n is the shell number, i.e. shell 1 can hold 2, shell 2 can hold 8, 3 holds 18 and so on.
The atomic number of Nitrogen is 7, i.e. it has 7 electrons (to match its 7 protons, assuming it isn't an ion).

With the atomic number, you simply start from shell 1 and work out. So we put 2 electrons in shell 1, leaving us with 5 left. Shell 2 can hold 6 so we can fit all 5 in.

In other words, you should have 2 electron shells on the atom, shell 1 with 2 e- and shell 2 with 5 e-.

When water waves meet, they can combine to form new waves. In constructive waves, a ________ amplitude wave is formed. In destru

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

In constructive waves, a greater amplitude wave is formed. In destructive waves, a wave with a smaller amplitude is formed. (option A)

Explanation:

Interference is called the superposition or sum of two or more waves. Depending mainly on the wavelengths, amplitudes and the relative distance between them, there are two types of interference: constructive or destructive.

Constructive interference occurs when there are two waves of identical or similar frequency (both have motions equal to an even number of similar wavelengths) and overlap the peak of one with the peak of the other. These effects add together and make a wave of greater amplitude. All of this is possible because the waves were in the same phase in the beginning (in the same position).

Destructive interference occurs in the opposite case to constructive. When the crest of one wave overlaps the valley of the other, they cancel out since they are in different phases when they overlap (they were in different positions). That is, as in the case of constructive waves they were added, in the case of destructive waves they cancel out (subtract).

So, In constructive waves, a greater amplitude wave is formed. In destructive waves, a wave with a smaller amplitude is formed.
