Answer:

Explanation:

in physics, the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another caused by its change in speed. For example, waves in deep water travel faster than in shallow.from one medium to another or from a gradual change in the medium. Refraction of light is the most commonly observed phenomenon, but other waves such as sound waves and water waves also experience refraction in other words it can be all of them or i can narrow it down some more it can have a change in dirction when light enters into a traveling point for example after moving through air it passes through a prism called compare reflection

Answer:

quality factor (Q) = 69.99

inductor = 1.591 x 10⁻⁴ H

capacitor = 3.248 x 10⁻¹⁰ F

Explanation:

Given;

resonance frequency (F₀) = 700 kHz

resistor, R = 10 Ohm

bandwidth (BW) = 10 kHz

bandwidth (BW) $= \frac{R}{2\pi L}$

$BW = \frac{R}{2\pi L}$

make L (inductor) the subject of the formula

$L = \frac{R}{2\pi *BW} = \frac{10}{2\pi *10,000} =1.591 *10^{-4} \ H = \ 0.1591\ mH$

$F_o =\frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC} } \\\\\sqrt{LC} = \frac{1}{2\pi F_o} \\\\LC = \frac{1}{4\pi ^2F_o^2}= \frac{1}{4\pi ^2(700,000)^2} = 5.168*10^{-14}$

make C (capacitor) the subject of the formula

$C = \frac{5.168*10^{-14}}{1.591*10^{-4}} = 3.248*10^{-10} \ F = \ 3.248*10^{-4} \ \mu F$

quality factor (Q) $= \frac{1}{R} \sqrt{\frac{L}{C}} \ = \frac{1}{10} \sqrt{\frac{1.591*10^{-4}}{3.248*10^{-10}}}=69.99$

quality factor (Q) = 69.99

The area of a rectangular park is 4 mi^2. The park has a width that is equal to "w", and a length that is 3 mi longer than the w

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

l= 4 mi : width of the park

w= 1 mi : length of the park

Explanation:

Formula to find the area of the rectangle:

A= w*l Formula(1)

Where,

A is the area of the rectangle in mi²

w is the width of the rectangle in mi

l is the width of the rectangle in mi

Known data

A = 4 mi²

l = (w+3)mi Equation (1)

Problem development

We replace the data in the formula (1)

A= w*l

4 = w* (w+3)

4= w²+3w

w²+3w-4= 0

We factor the equation:

We look for two numbers whose sum is 3 and whose multiplication is -4

(w-1)(w+4) = 0 Equation (2)

The values of w for which the equation (2) is zero are:

w = 1 and w = -4

We take the positive value w = 1 because w is a dimension and cannot be negative.

w = 1 mi :width of the park

We replace w = 1 mi in the equation (1) to calculate the length of the park:

l= (w+3) mi

l= ( 1+3) mi

l= 4 mi
