That is false. we cannot see the microwaves that cook your food or the x-rays that allows doctors to see the bones inside your body. We are limited to a small portion of the EM spectrum that is called visible light

It is false. We see only a few members of electromagnetic spectrum

Hope it helps!

N76 [4]

Answer: The total momentum before the docking maneuver is $mV_{1}+MV_{2}$ and after the docking maneuver is $(m+M) U$

Explanation:

Linear momentum $p$ (generally just called momentum) is defined as mass in motion and is given by the following equation:

$p=m.v$

Where $m$ is the mass of the object and $v$ its velocity.

According to the conservation of momentum law:

"If two objects or bodies are in a closed system and both collide, the total momentum of these two objects before the collision $p_{i}$ will be the same as the total momentum of these same two objects after the collision $p_{f}$ ".

$p_{i}=p_{f}$

This means, that although the momentum of each object may change after the collision, the total momentum of the system does not change.

Now, the docking of a space vehicle with the space station is an inelastic collision, which means both objects remain together after the collision.

Hence, the initial momentum is:

$p_{i}=mV_{1}+MV_{2}$

Where:

$m$ is the mass of the vehicle

$V_{1}$ is the velocity of th vehicle

$M$ is the mass of the space station

$V_{2}$ is the velocity of the space station

And the final momentum is:

$p_{f}=(m+M)U$

Where:

$U$ is the velocity of the vehicle and space station docked

kifflom [539]

Answer:

Height will be 3.8971 m

Explanation:

We have given that radius of the solid r = 1.60 m

Mass of the solid disk m = 2.30 kg

Angular velocity $\omega =4.46rad/sec$

Moment of inertia is given by $I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2$

Transnational Kinetic energy is given by $KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ as we know that v = $v=\omega r$

So $KE=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2$

Rotational kinetic energy is given by $KE_{ROTATIONAL}=\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2=\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{1}{2}mr^2 \right )\omega ^2=\frac{1}{4}m(r\omega )^2$

Potential energy is given by mgh

According to energy conservation

$mgh=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2+\frac{1}{4}m(\omega r)^2$

$h=\frac{3r^2\omega ^2}{4g}=\frac{3\times 1.60^2\times 4.46^2}{4\times 9.8}=3.8971m$

A wave pulse traveling to the right along a thin cord reaches a discontinuity where the rope becomes thicker and heavier. What i

Talja [164]

Answer:

the reflected wave is inverted and the transmitted wave is up

Explanation:

To answer this question we must analyze the physical phenomenon, with an wave reaching a discontinuity, we can analyze it as a shock.

Let's start when the discontinuity is with a fixed, very heavy and rigid obstacle, in this case the reflected wave is inverted, since the contact point cannot move

In the event that it collides with an object that can move, the reflected wave is not inverted, this is because the point can rise, they form a maximum at this point.

In the proposed case the shock is when the thickness changes, in this case we have the above phenomena, a part of the wave is reflected by being inverted and a part of the wave is transmitted without inverting.

The amplitude sum of the amplitudes of the two waves is proportional to the lanería that is distributed between them.

When checking the answers the correct one is the reflected wave is inverted and the transmitted wave is up
