Answer:

Because the soundwave bounces back when it hits the wall. Only a fraction of the soundwave gets transferred through the wall.

The condition of a country’s depends on its people’s ability to exchange money for goods and services.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer;

-Economy

The condition of a country’s economy depends on its people’s ability to exchange money for goods and services.

Explanation;

Economy is the state of a country or region in terms of the production and consumption of goods and services and the supply of money.

An economy encompasses all activity related to production, consumption and trade of goods and services in an area. An economy applies to everyone from individuals to entities such as corporations and governments.

There are four different types of economies; traditional economy, market economy, command economy and mixed economy. Each type of economy has it’s own strengths and weaknesses.

Which statement best describes insulators? Free electrons can move to other atoms Electrons within their atoms are strongly held
balandron [24]

Answer:

The statement that best describes insulators is <u><em>"Electrons within their atoms are strongly held by the nuclei"</em></u>

Explanation:

Atoms are constituted by a nucleus with positive charge (protons and neutrons), around which negative charges (electrons) revolve.

Substances that have a huge amount of "free electrons" that can move through the material are called conductors. This is due to the low resistance to the movement of the load or electric current.

Materials that do not conduct electricity are called insulators. In this case the electrons are strongly bound to the nucleus and cannot move freely. In this way a great resistance to the flow of electric current is offered.

Finally, semiconductors are the materials that can have electrical properties of conductors or insulators.

So<u><em> the statement that best describes insulators is "Electrons within their atoms are strongly held by the nuclei"</em></u>

Is a quantum of light or a single packet/particle of light at a given wavelength.
Yanka [14]

Photon is a quantum of light or a single packet/particle of light at a given wavelength.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that light has dual nature of wave as well as particles. Light waves can behave in wave nature as well as in particle nature depending upon the situation. So the light waves are assumed in different views to easily understand the nature of light waves.

There are several models proposed to simplify the nature of light. Among the several assumptions, one of the most prominent observations are that light waves or quantum of light are termed as photons which are made up of single packet/particles of light in a given wavelength.

Light of wavelength 500 nm is incident perpendicularly from air on a film 10-4cm thick and of refractive index 1.375. Part of th
Marysya12 [62]

Answer

given,

wavelength (λ)= 500 n m

thickness of film= 10⁻⁴ cm

refractive index = μ = 1.375

distance traveled is double which is equal to 2 x 10⁻⁴ cm

a) Number of wave

     N = \dfrac{d}{\mu\lambda}

     N = \dfrac{2 \times 10^{-6}}{1.375\times 500 \times 10^{-9}}

           N = 2.91

           N = 3

b) phase difference is equal to

Reflection from the first surface has a 180° (½λ) phase change.

There is no phase change for the 2nd surface reflection and there is no phase difference for the 2nd wave having traveled an exact whole number of waves.

net phase difference = 180^0\times \dfrac{3}{2}

                                   = 270°
