Answer:

Wave speed is the distance a wave travels in a given amount of time, such as the number of meters it travels per second. Wave speed is related to wavelength and wave frequency by the equation: Speed = Wavelength x Frequency. This equation can be used to calculate wave speed when wavelength and frequency are known.

Does a light bulb with a greater wattage have a greater brightness

Tamiku [17]

Only within the same technology. / / / If both of the bulbs you're comparing are incandescent, or both fluorescent, or both CFL, or both LED, then the one that uses more power is brighter. But a CFL with the same brightness as an incandescent bulb uses less power, and an LED bulb with the same brightness as both of those uses less power than either of them.

The box leaves position x=0 with speed v0. The box is slowed by a constant frictional force until it comes to rest at position x

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$Ff=m\times \dfrac{V_o^2}{2X_1}$

Explanation:

Given that

At X=0 V=Vo

At X=X1 V=0

As we know that friction force is always try to oppose the motion of an object. It means that it provide acceleration in the negative direction.

We know that

$V^2=U^2-2aS$

$0=V_o^2-2a X_1$

$a=\dfrac{V_o^2}{2X_1}$

So the friction force on the box

Ff= m x a

$Ff=m\times \dfrac{V_o^2}{2X_1}$

Where m is the mass of the box.

A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area.

babunello [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as:

$p=\frac{F}{A}$

where

F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface

A is the surface

Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:

$p\propto \frac{1}{A}$

this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"

<em>"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"</em>

is true.

Two people are sitting on wheeled chairs 1 metre apart. Person A is holding a 2kg ball. Person A throws the ball to Person. What

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

B - Person A's chair rolls backwards.

Explanation:

This can be seen simply through the Conservation of Momentum. When the ball is thrown to be, the ball's momentum(+m) is transfererd to B, so B's chair moves forward(think about it - it makes sense, doesn't it?), meaning A's chair moves backwards.

So, B.
