Sound waves, water waves, and light waves are all alike in that they all

Paha777 [63]

Sound and water waves are longitudinal waves, they require a medium to travel through and occilate particles 90 degrees to the wave motion
Light is a transverse wave. It doesnt require a medium to travel through.
All three reflect, refract and diffract

Light is difficult to think of because it acts in ways which waves cannot explain in some cirumstances. It acts like a particle (called photons) in some conditions, but acts like a normal sound or water wave does in others. Try not to get too caught up in light being a wave or a particle because even physists dont know how to explain it yet.

If you stood on a planet having a mass four times higher than Earth's mass, and a radius two times 70) lon longer than Earth's r

BigorU [14]

CHECK COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW

you stood on a planet having a mass four times that of earth mass and a radius two times of earth radius , you would weigh?

A) four times more than you do on Earth.

B) two times less than you do on Earth.

C) the same as you do on Earth

D) two times more than you do on Earth

Answer:

OPTION C is correct

The same as you do on Earth

Explanation :

According to law of gravitation :

F=GMm/R^2......(a)

F= mg.....(b)

M= mass of earth

m = mass of the person

R = radius of the earth

From law of motion

Put equation b into equation a

mg=GMm/R^2

g=GMm/R^2

g=GM/R^2

We know from question a planet having a mass four times that of earth mass and a radius two times of earth radius if we substitute we have

m= 4M

r=(2R)^2=4R^2

g= G4M/4R^2

Then, 4in the denominator will cancel out the numerator we have

g= GM/R^2

Therefore, g remain the same

A mass of 0.5 kg hangs motionless from a vertical spring whose length is 1.10 m and whose unstretched length is 0.50 m. Next the

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The maximum length during the motion is $L_{max} = 1.45m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass is $m =0.5 kg$

The vertical spring length is $L = 1.10m$

The unstretched length is $L_{un} = 1.30m$

The initial speed is $v_i = 1.3m/s$

The new length of the spring $L_{new} = 1.30 m$

The spring constant k is mathematically represented as

$k = -\frac{F}{y}$

Where F is the force applied $= m * g = 0.5 * 9.8=4.9N$

y is the difference in weight which is $=1.10-0.50=0.6m$

The negative sign is because the displacement of the spring (i.e its extension occurs against the force F)

Now substituting values accordingly

$k = \frac{4.9}{0.6}$

$= 8.17 N/m$

The elastic potential energy is given as $E_{PE} = \frac{1}{2} k D^2$

where D is this the is the displacement

Since Energy is conserved the total elastic potential energy would be

$E_T = initial \ elastic\ potential \ energy + kinetic \ energy$

$E_T = \frac{1}{2} k D_{max}^2 = \frac{1}{2} k D^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Substituting value accordingly

$\frac{1}{2} *8.17 *D_{max}^2 =\frac{1}{2} * 8.17*(1.30 - 0.50)^2 + \frac{1}{2} * 0.5 *1.30^2$

$4.085 * D_{max}^2 = 3.69$

$D^2_{max} = 0.9033$

$D_{max} = 0.950m$

So to obtain total length we would add the unstretched length

So we have

$L_{max} = 0.950 + 0.5 = 1.45m$

A closed container initially holds 50 monatomic Aparticles that have a combined energy of 480 units. After 100 monatomic B parti

Molodets [167]

Answer:

"8 units" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

According to the question,

Throughout equilibrium all particles are of equivalent intensity, and as such the integrated platform's total energy has been uniformly divided across all individuals.

Now,

The total energy will be:

= $480+720$

= $1200 \ units$

The total number of particles will be:

= $50+100$

= $150$

hence,

Energy of each A particle or each B particle will be:

= $\frac{1200}{150}$

= $8 \ units$
