The one at the base would be much older due to the law of super position, and the rock at the top would be much newer,again, due to the law of super position.

A string of length 100 cm is held fixed at both ends and vibrates in a standing wave pattern. The wavelengths of the constituent
azamat

The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be 400 cm.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Length of the string, L = 100 cm</em>

<em />

The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves is calculated as follows;

L = \frac{n \lambda}{2} \\\\n\lambda = 2L\\\\\lambda = \frac{2L}{n}

for first mode: n = 1

\lambda = \frac{2\times 100 \ cm}{1} \\\\\lambda = 200 \ cm

for second mode: n = 2

\lambda = \frac{2L}{2} = L = 100 \ cm

For the third mode: n = 3

\lambda = \frac{2L}{3} \\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 100}{3} = 67 \ cm

For fourth mode: n = 4

\lambda = \frac{2L}{4} \\\\\lambda = \frac{2 \times 100}{4} = 50  \ cm

Thus, we can conclude that, the wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be 400 cm.

The complete question is below:

A string of length 100 cm is held fixed at both ends and vibrates in a standing wave pattern. The wavelengths of the constituent travelling waves CANNOT be:

A. 400 cm

B. 200 cm

C. 100 cm

D. 67 cm

E. 50 cm

Nearly monochromatic light of wavelength 420 nm is split in two beams. The first beam traveled 105 nm to the screen more than th
leva [86]

Answer:

phase difference = π / 2

constructive interference

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength = 420 nm

1st beam = 105 nm

path difference = 105 nm

to find out

phase difference  and interference pattern of the two beams

solution

we use here equation of phase difference that is

phase difference = 2π / wavelength × Δx

put here value

phase difference = 2π / 420 × 105

phase difference = π / 2

and

we know that  here path difference Δx is the integral multiple of the wavelength  so it will be constructive interference

Δx is wavelength / 4

Suppose you were asked to demonstrate electromagnetic induction. Which of the following situations will result in an electric cu

D. All of the above. When a wire loop is moved or rotated in a magnetic field, there is a change in magnetic flux which produces emf in wire loop and hence electric current is produced.

A cube of side 5.0m is in a region where the electric field is directed outward from both of two opposite cube faces, with unifo
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The charge inside the cube is null.

Explanation:

If we apply the gauss theorem with a cubical gaussian surface of the size of the cube:

\displaystyle\oint_{S} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds}=\frac{q_{in}}{\varepsilon_{0}}

If we consider than the direction of the electric field is \vec{E}=E_0\hat{x}, we can solve the problem differentiating  the integral for each face of the cube:

\displaystyle\oint_{S} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds}=\displaystyle\int_{S_1} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds_1}+\displaystyle\int_{S_2} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds_2}+\displaystyle\int_{S_3} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds_3}+\displaystyle\int_{S_4} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds_4}+\displaystyle\int_{S_5} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds_5}+\displaystyle\int_{S_6} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds_6}

\displaystyle\oint_{S} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds}=\displaystyle\int_{S_1} E_0\hat{x}\,\hat{x}ds_1+\displaystyle\int_{S_2} E_0\hat{x}\,\hat{-x}ds_2+\displaystyle\int_{S_3} E_0\hat{x}\,\hat{y}ds_3+\displaystyle\int_{S_4} E_0\hat{x}\,\hat{-y}ds_4+\displaystyle\int_{S_5} E_0\hat{x}\,\hat{z}ds_5+\displaystyle\int_{S_6} E_0\hat{x}\,\hat{-z}ds_6

E₀ is a constant and each surface is equal to each other, so: S_1=S_2=S_i=S

Therefore:

\displaystyle\oint_{S} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds}=E_0\displaystyle\int_{S_1} \,ds_1+E_0\displaystyle\int_{S_2} -1\,ds_2+0+0+0+0=E_0S-E_0S=0

\displaystyle\oint_{S} \vec{E}\,\vec{ds}=0=\frac{q_0}{\varepsilon_0} \longleftrightarrow q_0=0c

Two hicers are 13 miles apart and walking toward each other. They meet in 2 hours. Find the rate of each hiker if one hiker walk
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let r be the rate of the slower walker in mph

[r + (r + 1.7)](2) = 13

    (2r + 1.7)(2) = 13

         4r + 3.4 = 13

                  4r = 9.6

                    r = 2.4 mph

            r + 1.7 = 4.1 mph
