Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{h. 20 000 N}}$

Explanation:

Force is the change in momentum over time

F = Δp/Δt

1. Calculate the change in momentum

p₁ = mv₁ = 1000 kg × 10 m/s = 10 000 kg·m·s⁻¹

p₂ = 0

Δp = p₂ - p₁= (0 - 10 000) kg·m·s⁻¹ = -10 000 kg·m·s⁻¹

2. Calculate the force

$\begin{array}{rcl}F & = & \dfrac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}\\\\& = & \dfrac{-10 000 \text{ kg$\cdot$m$\cdot$ s}^{-1}}{\text{ 0.5 s}}\\\\& = & \textbf{-20 000 N}\\\end{array}\\\text{The negative sign shows that the force is exerted opposite to the direction of motion.}\\\text{The magnitude of the force is $\large \boxed{\textbf{20 000 N}}$}$

Use a common denominator to find-2/3 + -4/5

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

-22/15

Explanation:

the least common denominator is 15 so first you multiply -2/3 by 5 in both the numerator and denominator making it -10/15

Then you do the same to -4/5 except you multiply the numerator and denominator by 3 giving you -12/15

If you add -10/15+ -12/15 you get -22/15

While looking at a cliff, you observe that three visible layers of rocks are tilted about 30 degrees. There are four straight ho

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

the principle of original horizontality and the principle of superposition

Explanation:

The principle of horizontality states that layers of sediment are originally deposited horizontally under the influence of gravity.

The principle of superposition states that the oldest layer layer is at the bottom and each layer above it is younger, with the youngest being at the top.

Unconformities help us find the age of different layers. An unconformity is a surface in which no new solid matter is deposited after a long geologic interval. Angular unconformity is a type of unconformity which different kinds of stratum were tilted or folded before deposition of younger layers of solid matter above the unconformity. Once the layers were folded and tilted, the older layers of the solid matter eroded, then the younger layers were deposited on the older layers. There angular unconformity is the contact between young and old layers of solid matter.

Therefore, these two principles therefore describe how the tilted layers are older than horizontal layers.

What is F = m x a in Newton's laws of motion?

madam [21]

Answer:

This is Newton's second law.

Newton's second law text:

(If a resultant force acts on a body, then an acceleration will give it an acceleration, the magnitude of which is directly proportional to the amount of the net force, and a direction is in the direction of the net force itself)

F=ma

net force = mass x acceleration

A plane electromagnetic wave, with wavelength 4.1 m, travels in vacuum in the positive direction of an x axis. The electric fiel

marusya05 [52]

(a) $7.32\cdot 10^7 Hz$

The frequency of an electromagnetic waves is given by:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

where

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

$\lambda=4.1 m$ is the wavelength of the wave in the problem

Substituting into the equation, we find

$f=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s}{4.1 m}=7.32\cdot 10^7 Hz$

(b) $4.60\cdot 10^8 rad/s$

The angular frequency of a wave is given by

$\omega = 2\pi f$

where

f is the frequency

For this wave,

$f=7.32\cdot 10^7 Hz$

So the angular frequency is

$\omega=2\pi(7.32\cdot 10^7 Hz)=4.60\cdot 10^8 rad/s$

(c) $1.53 m^{-1}$

The angular wave number of a wave is given by

$k=\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}$

where

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the wave

For this wave, we have

$\lambda=4.1 m$

so the angular wave number is

$k=\frac{2\pi}{4.1 m}=1.53 m^{-1}$

(d) $1.03\cdot 10^{-6}T$

For an electromagnetic wave,

$E=cB$

where

E is the magnitude of the electric field component

c is the speed of light

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field component

For this wave,

E = 310 V/m

So we can re-arrange the equation to find B:

$B=\frac{E}{c}=\frac{310 V/m}{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}=1.03\cdot 10^{-6}T$

(e) z-axis

In an electromagnetic wave, the electric field and the magnetic field oscillate perpendicular to each other, and they both oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Therefore, we have:

- direction of propagation of the wave --> positive x axis

- direction of oscillation of electric field --> y axis

- direction of oscillation of magnetic field --> perpendicular to both, so it must be z-axis

(f) 127.5 W/m^2

The time-averaged rate of energy flow of an electromagnetic wave is given by:

$I=\frac{E^2}{2\mu_0 c}$
