Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning).

Change in speed = (10 m/s) - (zero) = 10 m/s

Time for the change = 3 sec

Acceleration = (10 m/s) / (3 sec)

<em>Acceleration = (3 and 1/3) m/s²</em> or 3.333 m/s²

What relationship exists between the amplitude of a wave and amount of disturbance in the water?

guapka [62]

A wave is a result of the disturbance in the equilibrium state. There are two types of wave, transverse and longitudinal. Transverse wave affects amplitude while longitudinal wave affects the frequency of the wave. As for the transverse wave, the magnitude of the perpendicular disturbance of the wave is directly proportional to the amplitude of the wave. The higher the transverse disturbance the higher the amplitude.

A string of 26 identical Christmas tree lights are connected in series to a 120 V source. The string dissipates 73 W. What is th

spin [16.1K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Ohm's law and Electric Power. By Ohm's law we know that resistance is equivalent to,

$R_{eq}= \frac{V}{I}$

Here,

V = Voltage

I = Current

While the power is equivalent to the product between the current and the voltage, thus solving for the current we have,

$P=VI \rightarrow I = \frac{P}{V}$

$I =0.608 A$

Applying Ohm's law

$R_{eq} = \frac{120V}{0.608A}$

$R_{eq} = 197.4\Omega$

Therefore the equivalent resistance of the light string is $197.4\Omega$

What is the difference between chemical change and a physical change?

NeX [460]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are several differences between a physical and chemical change in matter or substances. A physical change in a substance doesn't change what the substance is. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.
