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.

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

Given:

u = 20 m/s

a = 5 m/s^2

v = 30 m/s

t = ?

Use the first kinematic equation of motion:

v = u + at

t = (v - u)/a = 10/5 = 2 seconds

In a race, Usain Bolt accelerates at
jeka94

Answer:

65.87 s

Explanation:

For the first time,

Applying

v² = u²+2as.............. Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance

From the question,

Given:  u = 0 m/s (from rest), a = 1.99 m/s², s = 60 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

v² = 0²+2(1.99)(60)

v² = 238.8

v = √238.8

v = 15.45 m/s

Therefore, time taken for the first 60 m is

t = (v-u)/a............ Equation 2

t = (15.45-0)/1.99

t = 7.77 s

For the final 40 meter,

t = (v-u)/a

Given: v = 0 m/s(decelerates), u = 15.45 m/s, a = -0.266 m/s²

Substitute into the equation above

t = (0-15.45)/-0.266

t = 58.1 seconds

Hence total time taken to cover the distance

T = 7.77+58.1

T = 65.87 s

MAXImum [283]

Answer:21.18 m

Explanation:

Given

initial speed u=10 m/s

height of building h=22 m

time taken to complete 22 m

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

initial vertical velocity =0

22=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

t=\sqrt{\frac{22\times 2}{g}}

t=2.11 s

Horizontal Distance moved

R=u_x\times t

R=10\times 2.11

R=21.18 m

This exists in the space surrounding a charged particle and exerts a force on other charged particles.
Zinaida [17]

Gravitational field exists in the space surrounding a charged particle and exerts a force on other charged particles. Gravitational waves are ripples of waves travelling outward from the source. The more massive the orbit of two bodies, the more it emits gravitational wave. And everything around it that is near within the wave experiences a ‘pull’ toward the orbiting bodies.
