Two transverse waves travel along the same taut string. Wave 1 is described by y1(x, t) = A sin(kx - ωt), while wave 2 is descri

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

6) Wave 1 travels in the positive x-direction, while wave 2 travels in the negative x-direction.

Explanation:

What matters is the part $kx \pm \omega t$ , the other parts of the equation don't affect time and space variations. We know that when the sign is - the wave propagates to the positive direction while when the sign is + the wave propagates to the negative direction, but here is an explanation of this:

For both cases, + and -, after a certain time $\delta t$ ( $\delta t >0$ ), the displacement y of the wave will be determined by the $kx\pm\omega (t+\delta t)$ term. For simplicity, if we imagine we are looking at the origin (x=0), this will be simply $\pm \omega (t+\delta t)$ .

To know which side, right or left of the origin, would go through the origin after a time $\delta t$ (and thus know the direction of propagation) we have to see how we can achieve that same displacement y not by a time variation but by a space variation $\delta x$ (we would be looking where in space is what we would have in the future in time). The term would be then $k(x+\delta x)\pm\omega t$ , which at the origin is $k \delta x \pm \omega t$ . This would mean that, when the original equation has $kx+\omega t$ , we must have that $\delta x>0$ for $k\delta x+\omega t$ to be equal to $kx+\omega\delta t$ , and when the original equation has $kx-\omega t$ , we must have that $\delta x$ for $k\delta x-\omega t$ to be equal to $kx-\omega \delta t$

Note that their values don't matter, although they are a very small variation (we have to be careful since all this is inside a sin function), what matters is if they are positive or negative and as such what is possible or not .

In conclusion, when $kx+\omega t$ , the part of the wave on the positive side ( $\delta x>0$ ) is the one that will go through the origin, so the wave is going in the negative direction, and viceversa.

Identifying What are five things

g100num [7]

Answer:

1. Naturally occuring

2. Solid

3. Inorganic

4. Crystalline

5. Specific Chemical Compostion

Explanation:

Minerals are inorganic, crystalline solids that occur during biogeochemical processes in nature like in cooled lava or evaporated sea water. Minerals are not rocks, but are actually the components that make up rocks. Though they vary in color and shape, each mineral has a distinct chemical composition.

1. Minerals are formed by natural geological processes. Most minerals form from molten lava, sea evaporation or hot liquids in caves or cracks. Laboratory-generated minerals like synthetic gems made for commercial purposes are not considered actual minerals.

2. Though minerals vary in shape, color, luster (the way a mineral reflects light) and hardness, all minerals are a solid at a given temperature. If a substance is not in its solid state, it is not currently a mineral. For example, ice is a mineral, but liquid water is not. The Mohr scale, rates a minerals hardness from one to 10, 10 being the hardest. Diamond is the hardest mineral. Talc is a very soft mineral with a Mohr rating of one.

3. Minerals are wholly inanimate, inorganic compounds. But there are exceptions to this qualifier. There are rare organic substances with definitive chemical compositions that are labeled as “organic minerals." The most famous of this oxymoronic exception is whewellite. Whewellite is a component of kidney stones and coal deposits.

4. Most minerals will grow into a crystal shape, space permitting. Mineral deposits are often small because there is usually a variety of minerals in the same vicinity competing for the same room to grow. A mineral’s crystalline structure determines its hardness, cleavage (how it breaks) and color. There are six different crystal shapes: cubic, tetragonal, orthohombic, hexagonal, monoclinic and triclinic.

5. A mineral is defined by its chemical composition. A rock, on the other hand, does not have a specific chemical composition because it is a composite of a variety of minerals. Minerals are classified based on their anionic group. The major mineral groups are native elements, sulfides, sulfosalts, oxides and hydroxides, halides, carbonates, nitrates, borates, sulfates, phosphates and silicates. Silica is abundant in the Earth’s crust, so silicates are the most common group of mineral.
