As ocean waves get closer to the shore they slow down. This slowing causes them to bend and come in close to parallel with the s

hore. This is because shallow water and deep water can be thought of as two different media. This bending of a wave is the wave interaction known as
A) diffraction
B) interference
C) reflection
D) refraction

abody starts from rest and accelerate uniformly at 8m/s/s.calculate the distance travelled by the body in 10s?

vagabundo [1.1K]

Explanation:

using the formula: S=ut+½gt², where u=0, S=?, g=8m/s², t=10seconds.

S=ut+½gt² ("ut" term will cancel because u=0).

=> S= ½gt²

=>S = ½×8×10²

=>S = 4×100

=>S = 400m .

Therefore, the distance traveled by the body in 10s is 400m.

hope this helps you.

You are holding a positive charge and there are positive charges of equal magnitude 1 m to your north and 1 m to your east. what

pychu [463]

By holding a positive charge and there are positive charges of equal magnitude 1 m to your north and 1 m to your east. Therefore, the direction of the force on the charge you are holding will be to the southwest.

Let I hold the charge , q at the centre of given co-ordinate system and two positive charge of equal magnitude Q are placed 1 m to my North and 1 m to my South .

now, both the charge are same nature e.g., positive . Let my charge is also positive (well, you can assume negative too , I am considering positive because it makes me easy to solve) then, both charge repel to my charge.

charge Q placed on east is repelling my charge q toward west . similarly charge Q placed on North is repelling my charge q toward south.

Now , use vector for solve it.

vector $F_{net}$ = vector Fe + vector Fn,

⇒ | $F_{net}$ | = $\sqrt{} F^{2} _{e } + F^{2}_n$

⇒ Fe = Fs = KqQ/(1m)² = KqQ

⇒ $F_{net}$ = √{Fe² + Fs²} = √{(kqQ)²+(KqQ)²}

⇒ $F_{net}$ = √2KqQ

Hence, net force act on q {my charge } is √2KqQ and the direction of force is S - W (southwest )direction.

Charge Q is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an insulating sphere of radius R = 4.00 cm. At a distance of r = 8.00

Elena L [17]

Answer:

$2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3$

$1979.99974\ N/C$

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = $8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

Q = Charge

r = Distance = 8 cm

R = Radius = 4 cm

Electric field is given by

$E=\dfrac{kQ}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{990\times 0.08^2}{8.99\times 10^{9}}\\\Rightarrow Q=7.04783\times 10^{-10}\ C$

Volume charge density is given by

$\sigma=\dfrac{Q}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=\dfrac{7.04783\times 10^{-10}}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (0.04)^3}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3$

The volume charge density for the sphere is $2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3$

$E=\dfrac{kQr}{R^3}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{8.99\times 10^9\times 7.04783\times 10^{-10}\times 0.02}{0.04^3}\\\Rightarrow E=1979.99974\ N/C$

The magnitude of the electric field is $1979.99974\ N/C$

Several springs are connected as illustrated below in (a). Knowing the individual springs stiffness k1 = 20 N/m, k2 = 30 N/m, k3

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring stiffness is

$k_{1}=20\ N/m$

$k_{2}=30\ N/m$

$k_{3}=15\ N/m$

$k_{4}=20\ N/m$

$k_{5}=35\ N/m$

According to figure,

$k_{2}$ and $k_{3}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent

Using formula for series

$\dfrac{1}{k}=\dfrac{1}{k_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{k_{3}}$

$k=\dfrac{k_{2}k_{3}}{k_{2}+k_{3}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k=\dfrac{30\times15}{30+15}$

$k=10\ N/m$

k and $k_{4}$ is in parallel

We need to calculate the k'

Using formula for parallel

$k'=k+k_{4}$

Put the value into the formula

$k'=10+20$

$k'=30\ N/m$

$k_{1}$ ,k' and $k_{5}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent stiffness of the spring

Using formula for series

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{k_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{k'}+\dfrac{1}{k_{5}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{30}+\dfrac{1}{35}$

$k_{eq}=8.93\ N/m$

Hence, The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.
