A water-skier is moving at a speed of 12.0 m/s . When she skis in the same direction as a traveling wave, she springs upward eve

ry 0.600 s because of the wave crests. When she skis in the direction opposite to that in which the wave moves, she springs upward every 0.500 s in response to the crests. The speed of the skier is greater than the speed of the wave. Determine (a) the speed and (b) the wavelength of the wave.

A reaction that releases heat is:<br> endothermic<br> exothermic<br> none of the above
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Exothermic reaction

Explanation:

  • A reaction that releases heat is known as an exothermic reaction.
  • Reactions can be classified as either exothermic or endothermic depending on whether they release or absorb heat from the surrounding.
  • A reaction that absorbs or gains heat from the surrounding is known as endothermic reaction.
  • On the other hand, if a reaction releases heat to the surrounding is known as exothermic reaction.
  • An exothermic reactions results to an increase in temperature of a solution while an endothermic reaction results to a decrease in the temperature of a solution.

Why should the substage condenser not be included in computing the magnification?
Leni [432]
The reason as to why the substage condenser does not need to be included in computing the magnification and the only component needed is the ocular lens and the objective lenses is because the condenser is only responsible for gathering light and it does not contribute with the magnification of the object under the microscope.

Charlie Brown kicks a football at 24.5 m/s at 35.0. What is the maximum height of the ball?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

d = 10.076 m

Explanation:

We need to obtain the velocity of the ball in the y direction

Vy  = 24.5m/s * sin(35) = 14.053 m/s

To obtain the distance, we use the formula

vf^2 = v0^2 -2*g*d

but vf = 0

d = -vo^2/2g

d = (14.053)^2/2*(9.8) = 10.076 m

A metallic wire has a diameter of 4.12mm. When the current in the wire is 8.00A, the drift velocity is 5.40×10−5m/s.What is the
podryga [215]

Answer:

6.9\times 10^{28}m^{-3}

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of wire=d=4.12 mm

Radius of wire=rr=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{4.12}{2}=2.06mm=2.06\times 10^{-3} m

1mm=10^{-3} m

Current=I=8 A

Drift velocity=v_d=5.4\times 10^{-5} m/s

We have to find the density of free electrons in the metal

We know that

Density of electron=n=\frac{I}{v_deA}

Using the formula

Density of free electrons=\frac{8}{5.4\times 10^{-5}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 3.14\times (2.06\times 10^{-3})^2}

By using Area of wire=\pi r^2

\pi=3.14\\e=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Density of free electrons=6.9\times 10^{28}m^{-3}
