How do reflection and refraction of waves affect communication?​

Physics
2 answers:
romanna [79]4 years ago

Answer:

Reflection involves a change in direction of waves when they bounce off a barrier. Refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another.

A soccer ball of mass 0.4 kg is moving horizontally with a speed of 20 m/s when it is kicked by a player. The kicking force is s
frutty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The ball was moving with velocity of 20 m /s earlier in horizontal direction . Due to kicking, additional V velocity was added to it at 40° because he kicked it at this angle but the ball travelled in the direction of resultant which was making an angle of 30° with the horizontal  .

From the relation of inclination of resultant

Tan θ = V sinα / (u + V cosα) where α is angle between u and V , θ is inclination of resultant

Tan30 = \frac{Vsin40}{20+ Vcos40}

\frac{1}{\sqrt{3 } } =\frac{V\times .64}{20+ V\times.766}

20 + .766 V = 1.11 V

20 = .344 V

V = 58 m /s

To know the force , we shall apply concept of impulse

F x t = mv  , F is force for time t creating a change of momentum mv

F x .1 = .4 x 58

F = 232 N

Problem Three

Remark

Somewhere we ought to be told that this is the Doppler Effect. I have never done a problem using this formula, so I think I'm doing it correctly, but no guarantees. My guess is that the frequency increases as it comes towards you and decreases as it moves away from you. I think that is correct.

Formula

<em><u>Givens</u></em>

  • f' = observed frequency
  • f = actual frequency
  • v = velocity of sound or light waves.
  • vo = velocity of observer (in both cases 0)
  • vs = velocity of source.

f' = (v + vo) * f / (v - vs)

Solution

  • v = 3*10^8 m/s
  • f' = 1.1 f
  • f = f
  • vo = 0  We are standing still while all this is going on.
  • vs = ???

f'/f = 1.1

1.1 = (3*10^8  + 0 ) / (3*10^8 - vs)

3.3*10^8 - 1.1*vs = 3*10^8

3.3*10^8 - 3*10^8= 1.1 vs

0.3 * 10^8 = 1.1 vs

2.73 * 10^7 = vs

The closest answer is 3.00 * 10^7 which is C

Problem Four

Here what is happening is that you are looking for the frequency resulting from a wave moving towards you at 1/2 the speed of sound. You are not moving.

<em><u>Givens</u></em>

  • v = v
  • vs = 1/2 v
  • f ' = ?
  • f = 1000 hz
  • vo =0

f' = v/(v - 1/2v) * 1000

f' = v/ (1/2 v) * 1000

f' = 2 * 1000

f' = 2000 which is D

What type of plate boundary do most volcanoes occur along
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Subducting convergent boundary

Explanation:

Generally, volcanoes occurs in both divergent and convergent boundaries. But the convergent boundary it occurs is usually associated with subduction.

Divergent boundary, plates move away from each other creating a new crust in the process. The diverging plates creates the space for magma to be squeezed through cracks and fissures. The magma's erupt to form volcanoes. In the Atlantic ocean the spreading of the plates causes an upwelling of magma through the crest of the Atlantic ridges. New oceanic crust are formed through this process. Sometimes the magma eruption forms volcanoes  that are higher than the sea level.

Convergent boundary , plates collides with each other . But in the case of volcanoes existence , the collision should be between a denser  plate(oceanic plates) and a less dense plates(continental plates) so that subduction can take place. The subducted plates (oceanic plates)  creates trenches and get expose to high temperature and pressure as it sinks toward the mantle. The upper mantle rocks melts and migrate to the earth surface forming volcanoes . Over 75% of the volcanoes occur along the pacific basin where convergent boundary is dominant. Pacific ring of fire has one of the most number of volcanoes.

At one instant, an object moving downward in free fall on the Earth has a speed of 50 m/s. Its speed 1 second later is
maksim [4K]

Answer:

velocity 1 second later = 59.8 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity final = Velocity initial + acceleration • time

Velocity final = 50m/s + 9.8m/s/s • 1s

Velocity final = 59.8 m/s
