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.

Suppose astronomers discover a radio message from a civilization whose planet orbits a star 35 light-years away. Their message e
Grace [21]

Answer:

The duration  is  T  =72 \  years /tex]Explanation:From the question we are told that     The  distance is  [tex]D  =  35 \ light-years = 35 *  9.46 *10^{15} = 3.311 *10^{17} \  m

  Generally the time it would take for the message to get the the other civilization is mathematically represented as

         t =  \frac{D}{c}

Here c  is the speed of light with the value  c =  3.08 *10^{8} \  m/s

=>     t =  \frac{3.311 *10^{17} }{3.08 *10^{8}}

=>     t =  1.075 *10^9 \ s

converting to years

           t =  1.075 *10^9 *  3.17 *10^{-8}

              t =  1.075 *10^9 *  3.17 *10^{-8}

            t =  34 \ years

Now the total time taken is mathematically represented as

      T  =  2*  t  +  2 + 2

=>   T  =  2* 34  +  2 + 2

=>   [tex]T  =72 \  years /tex]

A stone is thrown at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal from the top edge of a cliff with an initial speed of 12 m/s. A
natta225 [31]

v = initial velocity of launch of the stone = 12 m/s

θ = angle of the velocity from the horizontal = 30

Consider the motion of the stone along the vertical direction taking upward direction as positive and down direction as negative.

v₀ = initial velocity along vertical direction = v Sinθ = 12 Sin30 = 6 m/s

a = acceleration of the stone = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel = 4.8 s

Y = vertical displacement of stone = vertical height of the cliff = ?

using the kinematics equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

inserting the values

Y = 6 (4.8) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (4.8)²

Y = - 84.1 m

hence the height of the cliff comes out to be 84.1 m
