Answer:

Magnets interfere with compasses because compasses use the magnetic field to locate NESW (north east south west)

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically, owing to waves on the surface of the water. It takes 2.5 s

gulaghasi [49]

(a) 0.96 m/s

The period of the wave corresponds to the time taken for one complete oscillation of the boat, from the highest point to the highest point again. Since the time between the highest point and the lowest point is 2.5 s, the period is twice this time:

$T=2\cdot 2.5 s=5.0 s$

The frequency of the waves is the reciprocal of the period:

$f=\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{5.0 s}=0.20 Hz$

The wavelength instead is just the distance between two consecutive crests, so

$\lambda=4.8 m$

And the wave speed is given by:

$v=\lambda f=(4.8 m)(0.20 Hz)=0.96 m/s$

(b) 0.265 m

The total distance between the highest point of the wave and its lowest point is

d = 0.53 m

The amplitude is just the maximum displacement of the wave from the equilibrium position, so it is equal to half of this distance. So, the amplitude is

$A=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.53 m}{2}=0.265 m$

(c) Amplitude: 0.15 m, wave speed: same as before

In this case, the amplitude of the wave would be lower. In fact,

d = 0.30 m

So the amplitude would be

$A=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.30 m}{2}=0.15 m$

Instead, the wave speed would not change, since neither the frequency nor the wavelength of the wave have changed.

Which is the correct order from least amount of atomic (particle) movement to the most amount of atomic particle movement?

babymother [125]

Answer: particles movement in solid< particles movement in liquids< particles movement in gases.

Explanation:

Atoms are very small, it is not easily seen even with the help of light microscopes. However, We use multiple models of atoms toexplain describe particles of an atom behaviour.

In solids, the particles are packed together tightly in an ordered arrangement. The particles only vibrate about their position in the structure because the particles are held together too strongly to allow movement. Thereby,making the particles MOVE THE LEAST

In liquids, the particles are close together and they move with random motion in the container. The particles move rapidly in all directions but there is more colision between itself even more than particles in gases. This means that the particles here are MORE FASTER THAN THAT OF THE SOLID.

Particles in gases move the FASTEST, more than the particles in solids and liquids. Although, the average speed of the particles depends on their mass and the temperature.
