Answer:

It becomes wider

Explanation:

Because The bigger the object the wave interacts with, the more spread there is in the interference pattern. Decreasing the size of the opening increases the spread in the pattern.

Alex is standing still and throws a football with a speed of 10 m/s to his friend, who is also standing still. The two friends a
Phantasy [73]

The question is incomplete. It comes with a set of answer choices.


These are the answer choices:


Alex observes it as 10 m/s, and his friend observes it as less than 10 m/s.


Alex observes it as less than 10 m/s, and his friend observes it as 10 m/s.


Both Alex and his friend observe it as 10 m/s.


Both Alex and his friend observe it as less than 10 m/s.



Answer: Both Alex and his friend observe it as 10 m/s.


Justification:


1) The speed is relative to the frame of reference.


2) It is said that the both Alex and his friend are standing still.


3) Then, the speed they both see is the same, 10 m/s, respect the Earth (where they are standing still).


Of course, Alex is watching the ball moving away and his friend is seing it approaching, but it is not relevant for the question, as it deals with the speed which is only about magnitude, not direction.

Three 20.0 ohm resistors are
V125BC [204]

Answer:

6.67 ohm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Resistor 1 (R₁) =20 ohm

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 20 ohm

Resistor 3 (R₃) = 20 ohm

Equivalent Resistance (R) =?

Since the resistors are arranged in parallel connection, the equivalent resistance can be obtained as follow:

1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃

1/R = 1/20 + 1/20 + 1/20

1/R = (1 + 1 + 1) / 20

1/R = 3/20

Invert

R = 20/3

R = 6.67 ohm

Therefore, the equivalent resistance is 6.67 ohm.

An electric pump rated 1.5 KW lifts 200kg of water through a vertical height of 6m in 10 secs: way is the efficiency of the pump
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

80%

Explanation:

Efficiency = Power output / Power input × 100 %

To calculate efficiency we need to find power output of electric pump.

We can use,

Work done = Energy change

Work done per second = Energy change per second

Work done per second = Power

Therefore, Power = Energy change per second

                              = Change in potential energy of water per second

                              =mgh / t

                              = 200× 10×6 / 10

                              = 1200 W = 1.2 kW

Now use the first equation to find efficiency,

Efficiency = \frac{1.2}{1.5} × 100%

                = 80 %
