The right answer to this question is A. a crest that is toppling over. When a surfer rides an ocean wave on her surfboard, she is actually riding on a crest. The crest is the point on a wave with the maximum value or upward displacement within a cycle.

Answer:

A. a crest that is toppling over.

Explanation:

As we know that at the position of crest in a wave the velocity of motion of molecules is the least velocity or zero velocity

So as the surfer needs the stability he need a point of least velocity and maximum stability

So in that case he has to travel at the position of crest where he can obtain maximum stability and then his speed will be same as the speed of wave propagation in the direction of wave

so here correct answer would be

A. a crest that is toppling over.

A 4350 kg truck, driving 7.39 m/s, runs into the back of a stationary car. After the collision, the truck moves 4.55 m/s and the
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Mass of car = 1098 kg

Explanation:

Here law of conservation of momentum is applied.

Let mass of car be m.

Initial momentum = Final momentum.

Initial momentum = 4350 x 7.39 + m x 0 = 32416.5 kgm/s

Final momentum = 4350 x 4.55 + m x 11.5 = 19792.5+11.5m

We have

      19792.5+11.5m = 32416.5

        m = 1097.97 kg

Mass of car = 1098 kg

The voltage across the terminals of a generator is 5.7 v when it supplies a current of 0.3 A. It becomes 5.1 V when I=0.9A. Find
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

  • The emf of the generator is 6V
  • The internal resistance of the generator is 1 Ω

Explanation:

Given;

terminal voltage, V = 5.7 V, when the current, I = 0.3 A

terminal voltage, V = 5.1 V, when the current, I = 0.9 A

The emf of the generator is calculated as;

E = V + Ir

where;

E is the emf of the generator

r is the internal resistance

First case:

E = 5.7   + 0.3r -------- (1)

Second case:

E = 5.1 + 0.9r -------- (2)

Since the emf E, is constant in both equations, we will have the following;

5.1 + 0.9r = 5.7   + 0.3r  

collect similar terms together;

0.9r - 0.3r = 5.7 - 5.1

0.6r = 0.6

r = 0.6/0.6

r = 1 Ω

Now, determine the emf of the generator;

E = V + Ir

E = 5.1 + 0.9x1

E = 5.1 + 0.9

E = 6 V
