Answer:

The wave speed in SI units, is closest to - 2.7 m/s

Explanation:

given information:

y = 0.005 cos [π(38t - 14x)]

we know that the wave function is

y = A cos (kx ± ωt)

where

A = amplitude

w = angular velocity

k = wave number

thus,

y = 0.005 cos [(14πx - 38πt)]

ω = - 38π

k = 14π

to find the speed v, we use the equation below

v = ω/k

so,

v = - 38π/14π

= - 2.7 m/s

Which best explains how the diffraction pattern observed in young’s experiment supports the wave theory of light?.

KIM [24]

Answer: the airy pattern can only arise from wave propagation

Explanation:if particles went in straight lines through a slit, they would progate linearly and not interfere. The airy pattern arises from diffraction as waves interfere, producing peaks (constructive interference where peaks of waves from each slit coincide) and troughs (destructive interference where peaks and troughs of waves from each slit cancel out). If intensity rather than field is measured nodes occur where 0 values line up instead of troughs

Gravity causes objects to be attracted to one another. This attraction keeps our feet firmly planted on the ground and causes th

azamat

So the problem are asking to find the value of G base on the formula of the said equation of the magnitude of gravitational attraction on either body. Base on that, the possible answer or the derived formula of the said function is G = Fr^2/m1m2. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more

A dentist causes the bit of a high-speed drill to accelerate from an angular speed of 1.10 104 rad/s to an angular speed of 3.14

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

3.63 s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the equivalent SUVAT equations for the angular motion.

To find the angular acceleration, we can use the following equation:

$\omega_f^2 - \omega_i ^2 =2 \alpha \theta$

where

$\omega_f = 3.14\cdot 10^4 rad/s$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 1.10 \cdot 10^4 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\theta= 2.00 \cdot 10^4 rad$ is the angular distance covered

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

Re-arranging the formula, we can find $\alpha$ :

$\alpha=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}=\frac{(3.14\cdot 10^4 rad/s)^2-(1.10\cdot 10^4 rad/s)^2}{2(2.00\cdot 10^4 rad)}=2.16\cdot 10^4 rad/s^2$

Now we want to know the time the bit takes starting from rest to reach a speed of $\omega_f=7.85\cdot 10^4 rad/s$ . So, we can use the following equation:
