Answer:

The opposite wave of same frequency...

Explanation:

Let us take an example. We know the noise cancellation property of most of the modern headphones. When sounds from the environment is picked up by the microphone embed into the headphones, a opposite wave of same frequency is transmitted out that interact destructively and causes destructive interference and cancel out each other in this process.

A spring is hanging from the ceiling. When a 250 gram of mass is attached to the free end, the spring elongates by 5 cm. The spr

lord [1]

Answer:

k = 49 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

When the mass is attached to the end of the spring, it elongates 5 cm or 0.05 m. We need to find the spring constant. Let it is k.

The force due to mass is balanced by its weight as follows :

mg=kx

$k=\dfrac{mg}{x}\\\\k=\dfrac{0.25\times 9.8}{0.05}\\\\k=49\ N/m$

So, the spring constant of the spring is 49 N/m.

Which transformation of energy occurs when a fan is turned on and the blades start to rotate?

Ksju [112]

Answer:

kinetic energy

Explanation:

A wind turbine transforms the mechanical energy of wind into electrical energy. A turbine takes the kinetic energy of a moving fluid, air in this case, and converts it to a rotary motion. As wind moves past the blades of a wind turbine, it moves or rotates the blades. These blades turn a generator

A transformer has two sets of coils, the primary with N1 = 160 turns and the secondary with N2 = 1400 turns. The input rms volta

vovikov84 [41]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the voltage in a coil, through the percentage relationship that exists between the voltage and the number of turns it has.

So things our data are given by

$N_1 = 160$

$N_2 = 1400$

$\Delta V_{1rms} = 62V$

PART A) Since it is a system in equilibrium the relationship between the two transformers would be given by

$\frac{N_1}{N_2} = \frac{\Delta V_{1rms}}{\Delta V_{2rms}}$

So the voltage for transformer 2 would be given by,

$\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{N_2}{N_1} \Delta V_{1rms}$

PART B) To express the number value we proceed to replace with the previously given values, that is to say

$\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{N_1}{N_2} \Delta V_{1rms}$

$\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{1400}{160} 62V$

$\Delta V_{2rms} = 1446.66V$

Monochromatic light of a given wavelength is incident on a metal surface. However, no photoelectrons are emitted. If electrons a

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Light of a shorter wavelength should be used.

Explanation:

This is studied in the phenomenon called photoelectric effect, in which light is able to release electrons from a metal, said electrons are called photoelectrons .

The experiments that have been carried out show that <u>increasing or decreasing the intensity of the light will not cause the photoelectrons to be emitted</u>, what will cause the photoelectrons to be emitted is to increase the frequency of the incident light.

And a higher frequency corresponds to a shorter wavelength according to the equation:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

(where $f$ is frequency, $c$ the speed of light, and $\lambda$ the wavelength)

So the answer is that the wavelength of the light must be shortened to cause the emission of electrones.

How does the speed of visible light compare with the speed of gamma rays

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

They are the same

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of perpendicular oscillations of electric and magnetic field, which oscillate perpendicularly to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse wave). One property of the electromagnetic waves is that they travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, called speed of light:

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types according to their frequency; from highest to lowest frequency, we have:

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared

Microwaves

Radio waves

We see that both visible light and gamma rays are electromagnetic waves, so they both travel in a vacuum at the same speed, the speed of light.
