Answer:

Three dimensional wave

Explanation:

We know that waves generally spread in multiple dimensions and have different wavefronts, the more a wavefront moves away from the source it spreads the energy as it becomes larger hence it starts loosing energy.

As the number of wavefront in a three dimensional wave will certainly be more than that of two dimensional wave, it will spread more energy and will definitely starts to loose its energy way faster than two dimensional wave

A boy whirls a stone in a horizontal circle of radius 1.4 m and at height 1.5 m above ground level. The string breaks, and the s

balandron [24]

Answer: $233.23 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

radius of circle=1.4 m

Height of stone above ground=1.5 m

Horizontal distance(R)=10 m

It is given at the time of break stone flies horizontally thus stone to cover a height of 1.5 m in time t before reaching ground

$1.5=0+\frac{gt^2}{2}$

t=0.55 s

Initial horizontal velocity at the time of break is given by u

$R=u\times t$

$10=u\times 0.55$

u=18.07 m/s

Therefore magnitude of centripetal acceleration is given by

$a_c=\frac{u^2}{r}=\frac{18.07^2}{1.4}=233.23 m/s^2$

A solid weighs 16.5N on the surface of the moon. The force of gravity on the moon is 1.7N/Kg.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

mass = 9.7 kg

Explanation:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity (g)

16.5 = mass x 1.7

mass = $\frac{16.5}{1.7}$ = 9.7 kg

The inductor in a radio receiver carries a current of amplitude 200 mA when a voltage of amplitude 2.4 V is across it at a frequ

zzz [600]

Answer:

The value of the inductance is 1.364 mH.

Explanation:

Given;

amplitude current, I₀ = 200 mA = 0.2 A

amplitude voltage, V₀ = 2.4 V

frequency of the wave, f = 1400 Hz

The inductive reactance is calculated;

$X_l = \frac{V_o}{I_o} \\\\X_l = \frac{2.4}{0.2} \\\\X_l =12 \ ohms$

The inductive reactance is calculated as;

$X_l = \omega L\\\\X_l = 2\pi fL\\\\L = \frac{X_l}{2 \pi f}$

where;

L is the inductance

$L = \frac{12}{2 \pi \times \ 1400} \\\\L = 1.364 \times \ 10^{-3} \ H\\\\L = 1.364 \ mH$

Therefore, the value of the inductance is 1.364 mH.

How can radioactive dating and relative dating be used together to date the age of a rock strata or an organism?

Otrada [13]

Answer:

It compares the the difference between a radioactive element remaining in specimen to the amount of the radioactive element that would have been originally trapped in the specimen. This is done by comparing the ratio of the relative abundance of this radioactive element to its non radioactive isotope in nature to their ratio remaining in the specimen and comparing it to the half-life of the radioactive isotope.
