Answer:

Shock wave.

Explanation:

A wave that will travel faster than the speed of sound. It will generate regions where the pressure is high, in the medium in which the wave travels.

As the wave travels faster than the sound wave, in that medium compressional waves pile up and will result in regions of high pressure. The source that generates the shock waves will be moving ahead of the waves that are produced by it.

Suppose an air craft travels faster than the speed of sound, it will generate shock waves.

A charged particle is moving perpendicular to a magnetic field in a circle with a radius r. An identical charge particle enters

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The second particle will move through the field with a radius greater that the radius of the first particle

Explanation:

For a charged particle, the force on the particle is given as

$F = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}$

also recall that work is force times the distance traveled

work = F x d

so, the work on the particle = F x d,

where the distance traveled by the particle in one revolution = $2\pi r$

Work on a particle = 2πrF = $2\pi mv^{2}$

This work is proportional to the energy of the particle.

And the work is also proportional to the radius of travel of the particles.

Since the second particle has a bigger speed v, when compared to the speed of the first particle, then, the the second particle has more energy, and thus will move through the field with a radius greater that the radius of the first particle.

What is an electric circuit?

klemol [59]

<h3>Answer: any path that allows electrons to flow</h3>

An electrical circuit is a path in which electrons from a voltage or current source flow. ... The part of an electrical circuit that is between the electrons' starting point and the point where they return to the source is called an electrical circuit's "load".
