R1 + R4 = 1430 + 1350 = 2780 = R14 series combination of R1 & R4

R2 + R5 = 1350 + 1150 = 2500 = R25

The circuit has been reduced to 3 resistors in parallel

R314 = 2780 * 1100 / (2780 + 1100) = 788 this is the resistance of the parallel combination of R14 and R3

R31425 = 2500 * 788 / (2500 + 788) = 599 which is the equivalent of the circuit - you can also use the formula for 3 resistors in parallel but this seems simpler

Answer:

The increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the box, m = 2.35 kg

It is lifted from the floor to a tabletop 1.30 m above the floor, h = 1.3 m

We need to find the increase the gravitational potential energy. Initial it will placed at ground i.e. its initial gravitational potential is equal to 0. The increase in the gravitational potential energy is given by :

$U=mgh$

$U=2.35\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.3\ m$

U = 29.93 Joules

So, the increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two loudspeakers are about 10 mm apart in the front of a large classroom. If either speaker plays a pure tone at a single freque

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

I hear points of low volume sound and points of high volume of sound.

Explanation:

This is because, since the two sources of sound have the same frequency and are separated by a distance, d = 10 mm, there would be successive points of constructive and destructive interference.

Since their frequencies are similar, we should have beats of high and low frequency.

So, at points of low frequency, the amplitude of the wave is smallest and there is destructive interference. The frequency at this point is the difference between the frequencies from both speakers. Since the frequency from both speakers is 400 Hz, we have, f - f' = 400 Hz - 400 Hz = 0 Hz. So, the volume of the sound is low(zero) at these points.

Also, at points of high frequency, the amplitude of the wave is highest and there is constructive interference. The frequency at this point is the sum between the frequencies from both speakers. Since the frequency from both speakers is 400 Hz, we have, (f + f') = 400 Hz + 400 Hz = 800 Hz. So, the volume of the sound is high at these points.

So, as you wander around the room, I should hear points of high and low sound across the room.

Light waves have some similarities with water and sound waves, but they are not exactly the same. Describe all the differences y

makkiz [27]

Answer:

<h2>All the waves are pertubations that propagate (transport) energy.</h2><h2></h2>

Nevertheless, they have some differences:

1. Light waves are electromagnetic waves, while sound and water waves are mechanical waves, this is the first and principal difference.

2. Electromagnetic waves can propagate in vacuum (they do not need a medium or material), but mechanical waves obligatory need a material to propagate

3. Light waves are always transversal waves, this means the oscillatory movement is in a direction that is perpendicular to the propagation; but mechanical waves may be both: longitudinal waves (the oscillation occurs in the same direction as the propagation) or transversal waves.

4. Electromagnetic waves propagates at a constant velocity (Light velocity) while the velocity of mechanical waves will depend on the type of wave and the density of the medium or material.

5. Mechanical waves are characterized by the regular variation of a single magnitude, while electromagnetic waves are characterized by the variation of two magnitudes: the electric field and the magnetic field

6. Water waves are 2-dimensional waves, while the light and the sound are tridimensional spherical waves

7. Light waves transports energy in the form of radiation, while mechanical waves transport energy with material

Two objects, A and B, each of mass o.22 kg, are moving at 0.34 m/s directly toward each other. What is the speed of Object A aft

ki77a [65]

Theoretically, if the objects have the same mass and are moving towards each other at a speed of $0.34m s^{-1}$ , after a perfectly elastic collision, the object A is supposed to move with the same velocity in the opposite direction.
