Explain what happens to particles in diffusion. What causes diffusion?
vlabodo [156]
<u><em>Diffusion:
</em></u><em> in diffusion particles move from area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration..
</em><u><em>causes:
</em></u><em>the movement of particles allow them ti disperse,,, when molecules are close to each other they collide with each other and push each other apart so they spread in the whole area... :)</em><u><em>

(ii) Describe how the acceleration of the train at time t = 100 s differs from the acceleration
quester [9]

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. When acceleration increases a body moves a faster velocity.

  • In the graph acceleration at time t= 100s is rapidly increasing.
  • At t = 20s, the acceleration of the body is getting started up.

A vehicle at time 100s will have a faster velocity compared to one at t = 20s

The box resting on the inclined plane above has a mass of 20kg. The incline sits at a 30o angle. Find the friction force between
tekilochka [14]

The friction force between the box and the incline if the box does not slide down the incline will be 0.577

The force preventing sliding against one another of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material components is known as friction. There are several kinds of friction: Two solid surfaces in touch are opposed to one another's relative lateral motion by dry friction.

Given the box resting on the inclined plane above has a mass of 20kg and the The incline sits at a 30 degree angle

We have to find the friction force between the box and the incline if the box does not slide down the incline

Since the frictional force F₁ must equal or exceed gravitational force F₂ down the incline:

F₁ = F₂

μmgcosΘ = mgsinΘ

μ = (mgsinΘ)/(mgcosΘ)

μ = tanΘ

μ = 0.577

Hence the friction force between the box and the incline if the box does not slide down the incline will be 0.577

Which of the following is an example of the Doppler effect? A water bug on the surface of a pond is producing small ripples in t
noname [10]

Answer:

A police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase.

Explanation:

In Physics, Doppler effect can be defined as the change in frequency of a wave with respect to an observer in motion and moving relative to the source of the wave.

Simply stated, Doppler effect is the change in wave frequency as a result of the relative motion existing between a wave source and its observer.

The term "Doppler effect" was named after an Austrian mathematician and physicist known as Christian Johann Doppler while studying the starlight in relation to the movement of stars.

<em>The phenomenon of Doppler effects is generally applicable to both sound and light. </em>

An example of the Doppler effect is a police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase. This is so because when a sound object moves towards you, its sound waves frequency increases, thereby causing a higher pitch. However, if the sound object is moving away from the observer, it's sound waves frequency decreases and thus resulting in a lower pitch.

<em>Other fields were the Doppler effects are applied are; astronomy, flow management, vibration measurement, radars, satellite communications etc. </em>
