A mechanical wave<span> requires an initial </span>energy<span> input. Once this initial </span>energy<span> is added, the </span>wave<span> travels through the medium until all its </span>energy is transferred<span>. In contrast, electromagnetic </span>waves<span> require no medium, but can still travel through one</span>

An observer on Earth sees rocket 1 leave Earth and travel toward Planet X at 0.3c. The observer on Earth also sees that Planet X
Verizon [17]

Answer:

0.625 c

Explanation:

Relative speed of a body may be defined as the speed of one body with respect to some other or the speed of one body in comparison to the speed of second body.

In the context,

The relative speed of body 2 with respect to body 1 can be expressed as :

$u'=\frac{u-v}{1-\frac{uv}{c^2}}$

Speed of rocket 1 with respect to rocket 2 :

$u' = \frac{0.4 c- (-0.3 c)}{1-\frac{(0.4 c)(-0.3 c)}{c^2}}$

$u' = \frac{0.7 c}{1.12}$

u'=0.625 c

Therefore, the speed of rocket 1 according to an observer on rocket 2 is 0.625 c

Consider two diffraction gratings with the same slit separation. The only difference between the two gratings is that one gratin
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

True The grid with more slits gives more angle separation increases

True. The grating with 10 slits produces better-defined (narrower) peaks

Explanation:

Such a system can be seen as a diffraction network in this case with different number of lines per unit length, the expression for the constructive interference of a diffraction network is

      d sin θ = m λ

where d is the distance between slits or lines, m the order of diffraction and λ the wavelength.

For network with 5 slits

      d = 1/5 = 0.2

For the network with 10 slits

      d = 1/10 = 0.1

let's calculate the separation (teat) for each one

      θ = sin⁻¹ (m λ / d)

for 5 slits

     θ₅ = sin⁻¹ (m λ 5)

for 10 slits

     θ₁₀ = sin⁻¹ (m λ 10)

we can appreciate that for more slits the angle increases

the intensity of a series of slits is

       I = I₀ sin²2 (N d/2) / sin² d/2)

when there are more slits (N) the peaks have greater intensity and are more acute (half width decreases)

let's analyze the claims

False

True The grid with more slits gives more angle separation increases

False

True The expression for the intensity of the diffraction peaks the intensity of the peaks increases with the number of slits as well as their spectral width decreases

False

Use the galvanometers to determine the amount and direction of the induced current. Which galvanometer is
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Looking at the 3 galvanometer readings given above, for galvanometer A, the reading is -2 mA.

For galvanometer B, the reading is 4 mA.

While for galvanometer C, the reading is -5 MA

Thus, option B is correct.

When the temperature of the air is 25 degress C, the velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air is approximately
dusya [7]
Assuming an ideal gas, the speed of sound depends on temperature 
only.   Air is almost an ideal gas. 

Assuming the temperature of 25°C in a "standard atmosphere", the 
density of air is 1.1644 kg/m3, and the speed of sound is 346.13 m/s. 

The velocity can't be specified, since the question gives no information 
regarding the direction of the sound.
