The strength of the electric and magnetic fields there is no physical "distance" of oscillation here. nothing is actually moving up and down if you draw light as a sinusoidal wave, the up and down motion is the strength of the EM fields cheers

A 1400.0 kg car crests a 3200.0 m pass in the mountains and briefly comes to rest. The car descends 1000 m before climbing and c
rjkz [21]

Answer:

a) v = 88.54 m/s

b) vf = 26.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

m = 1400.0 kg

a)

by using the energy conservation

loss in potential energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy

mg × ( 3200-2800) = 1/2 ×m×v²

so

1400 × 9.8 × 400 = 0.5 × 1400 × v²

5488000 = 700v²

v² = 5488000 / 700

v² = 7840

v = √7840

v = 88.54 m/s

b)

Work done by all forces is equal to change in KE

W_gravity + W_non - conservative = 1/2×m×(vf² - vi²)

we substitute

1400 × 9.8 × ( 3200-2800) - (5 × 10⁶) = 1/2 × 1400 × (vf²  -0 )

488000 = 700 vf²

vf² = 488000 / 700

vf² = 697.1428

vf = √697.1428

vf = 26.4 m/s

Why does sound propagate faster in solid bodies than in liquids and faster in liquids than in air?
storchak [24]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

this is because particles in solids are packed very closely together, thus , the particles collide with each other frequently and thus transfer of energy is faster. however, particles in liquid are closely packed but not as close as in solid so the particles do not collide as frequently. thus, transfer of energy slower than in solid. furthermore, the particles in gas are spaced far apart from each other, thus the particles don't collide with each other frequently, thus transfer of energy is very slow in gas.

hope you get it,

please mark

Listed following is a set of statements describing individual stars or characteristics of stars. Match these to the appropriate
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Red giant or super giant → very cool but very luminous

                                      → found in the upper right of the H-R diagram.

Main sequence →The majority of stars in our galaxy

                        → Sun, for example

                        → a very hot and very luminous star

White dwarfs → very hot but very dim

                     → not much larger in radius than earth  

Explanation:

Giant:

When the stars run out of their fuel that is hydrogen for the nuclear fusion reactions then they convert into Giant stars.That's why they are very cool. Giant stars have the larger radius and luminosity then the main sequence stars.

Main Sequence:

Stars are called main sequence stars when their core temperature reaches up to 10 million kelvin and their start the nuclear fusion reactions of hydrogen into helium in the core of the star. That is why they are very hot and luminous. For example sun is known as to be in the stage of main sequence as the nuclear fusion reactions are happening in its core.

White dwarfs:

When the stars run out of their fuel then they shed the outer layer planetary nebula, the remaining core part that left behind is called as white dwarf. It's the most dense part as the most of the mass is concentrated in this part.

Using an inclined plane, what happens to the amount of work that has to be done?
weeeeeb [17]
A. The amount of work increases.
Imagine you are pushing a box on a flat surface. Now imagine pushing it up a steep hill. It gets harder and that's how I remember this.
Hope this helps.
