Answer:

B). 1.53 m/s toward the beach

Explanation:

Velocity consists of a) a magnitude (the speed) and b) a direction.

The speed is given by the ratio between the distance covered and the time taken:

$v=\frac{110 m}{72 s}=1.53 m/s$

while the direction is given in the problem, it is the same as the displacement (toward the beach).

An LC circuit consists of a 3.14 mH inductor and a 5.08 µF capacitor. (a) Find its impedance at 55.7 Hz. 563.57 Correct: Your an

ANEK [815]

Answer:

$z=561.7$

$z=214.1$

Explanation:

L = inductance of the Inductor = 3.14 mH = 0.00314 H

C = capacitance of the capacitor = 5.08 x 10⁻⁶ F

f = frequency = 55.7 Hz

Impedance is given as

$z=\frac{1}{2\pi fC} - 2\pi fL$

$z=\frac{1}{2(3.14) (55.7)(5.08\times 10^{-6})} - 2(3.14) (55.7)(0.00314)$

$z=561.7$

f = frequency = 11000 Hz

Impedance is given as

$z= - \frac{1}{2\pi fC} + 2\pi fL$

$z= - \frac{1}{2(3.14) (11000)(5.08\times 10^{-6})} + 2(3.14) (11000)(0.00314)$

$z=214.1$

A surface receiving sound is moved from its original position to a position three times farther away from the source of the soun

vazorg [7]

Answer:

c. nine times as low.

Explanation:

Sound intensity is defined as the acoustic power transferred by a sound wave per unit of normal area to the direction of propagation:

$I\propto \frac{1}{A}$

Since the sound wave has a spherical wavefront of radius r, then the area is given by:

$A=4\pi r^2$

Here r is the distance from the source of the sound. Thus sound intensity decreases as:

$I\propto \frac{1}{4\pi r^2}\\\\I'\propto \frac{1}{4\pi r'^2}\\\\I'\propto \frac{1}{4\pi (3r)^2}\\\\I'\propto \frac{1}{9} \frac{1}{4\pi r^2}\\\\I'\propto \frac{1}{9} I$

What are two types of diffraction?

tino4ka555 [31]

Fresnel and Fraunhofer diffraction. Fresnel diffraction is produced when light from a point source meets an obstacle, the waves are spherical and the pattern observed is a fringed image of the object. Fraunhofer diffraction occurs with plane wave-fronts with the object effectively at infinity. The pattern is in a particular direction and is a fringed image of the source.

a blackbody is radiating with a characteristic wavelength of 9 microns what is the blackbody temperature answer in kelvin

Daniel [21]

This question involves the concepts of Wein's displacement law and characteristic wavelength.

The blackbody temperature will be "3.22 x 10⁵ k".

<h3>WEIN'S DISPLACEMENT LAW</h3>

According to Wein's displacement law,

$\lambda_{max} T = c\\\\T=\frac{c}{\lambda_{max}}$

where,

$\lambda_{max}$ = characteristic wavelength = 9 μm = 9 x 10⁻⁹ m
T = temperature = ?
c = Wein's displacment constant = 2.897 x 10⁻³ m.k

Therefore,

$T=\frac{2.897\ x\ 10^{-3}\ m.k}{9\ x\ 10^{-9}\ m}$

T = 3.22 x 10⁵ k
