Information I learned from history class Education in the 1950's expanded from previous decades. They no longer focused purely on reading, writing and arithmetic. History and science became a main part of the cirriculum. Also, enrollment skyrocketed as the baby-boomers began enrolling in elementary school. One interesting thing that categorized this generation was the presence of fallout tests. Schools would require the students to go through a fake atomic bomb attack in which they would hide under their desks (which was completely pointless in protecting them from radiation, it was more of an emotional security for the parents and teachers, but scared the hell out of the students). Socially, children were taught to conform and to be normal. Standing out or questioning authority was bad. Sex was taught, though minimally. They explained the penis and vagina. Sexually transmitted diseases were focused on greatly so as to "scare" the students out of premarital sex.
Answer:
They don’t ‘represent’ anything, they are properties of the wave.
Depending on the type of wave, we experience them as various phenomena. For example, with a sound wave we experience frequency (or wavelength, which is just another way to describe the same property) as the pitch of the sound. We experience amplitude as the loudness of the sound, although due to the characteristics of the ear, frequency also effects perceived loudness.
If the wave is a light wave, we experience the frequency (wavelength) as the colour of the light, and the amplitude as the brightness of the light.
For many waves, we don’t perceive them at all (e.g. radio waves).
For ocean waves, frequency is the time for each peak or trough to reach us, and amplitude is how tall the wave is.
His power output was 3 Watt (360 Joule/120 seconds). The power output can be calculated by dividing the quantity of work by the amount of second needed for the activity and also by multiplying the force amount with the velocity of the activity. The power output usually used for measuring the ability of machine for doing its job.
Answer:
T= 4.24sec
Explanation:
We are going to use the formula below to calculate.
Where T is period
L is length of rod
g is acceleration due to gravity =
From the problem, the rod is pivoted at 1/4L which means that three quarter of the rod was used for the oscillation. lets call this
= 4.4625m
thus
T= 4.24sec
Answer:
Explanation:
24 - gauge wire , diameter = .51 mm .
Resistivity of copper ρ = 1.72 x 10⁻⁸ ohm-m
R = ρ l / s
1.72x 10⁻⁸ / [3.14 x( .51/2)² x 10⁻⁶ ]
= 8.42 x 10⁻² ohm
= .084 ohm
B ) Current required through this wire
= 12 / .084 A
= 142.85 A
C )
Let required length be l
resistance = .084 l
2 = 12 / .084 l
l = 12 / (2 x .084)
= 71.42 m
