Amber asked her roommate to turn down the radio because she was trying to study. Her roommate had increased the volume from a vo

lume level of 14 to 15. This was just enough for Amber to detect the increase and subsequent decrease. Amber's detection of the increase and decrease of volume is an example of ________

Answer:

Difference threshold or also Just Noticeable Difference

Explanation:

The above mentioned case between room mates, where one room mate was able to detect a minute change in volume shows an instance of the difference threshold.

Difference threshold can be defined as stimulation at its minimum level that can be detected by an individual almost 50 % of the times.

It is the lowest possible level of sound that is detectable by a person.

That is what happened in the mentioned case that when the volume was increased from 14 to 15, Amber was able to detect it.

Describe a situation in which an electron will be affected by an external electric field but will not be affected by an external
irina [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Situations in which an electron will be affected by an external electric field but will not be affected by an external magnetic field

a ) When an electron is stationary in the electric field and magnetic field , he will be affected by electric field but not by magnetic field. Magnetic field can exert force only on mobile charges.

b ) When the electron is moving parallel to electric field and magnetic field . In this case also electric field will  exert force on electron but magnetic field field will not exert force on electrons . Magnetic field can exert force only on the perpendicular component of the velocity of charged particles.

Situations when electron is affected by an external magnetic field but not by an external electric field

There is no such situation in which electric field will not affect an electron . It will always affect an electron .

A 2-kg wheel rolls down the road with a linear speed of 15m/s. Find its trwansitional and rotational kinetic energies.​
Elza [17]

Answer:

The translational kinetic energy is 225 J

The rotational kinetic energy is 225 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the wheel, m = 2-kg

linear speed of the wheel, v = 15 m/s

Transnational kinetic energy is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂MV²

where;

M is mass of the moving object

V is the velocity of the object

E =  ¹/₂ x 2 x (15)²

E = 225 J

Rotational kinetic energy is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂Iω²

where;

I is moment of inertia

ω is angular velocity

E = \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2\\\\E = \frac{1}{2} *mr^2*(\frac{v}{r})^2\\\\E =  \frac{1}{2} *mr^2*\frac{v^2}{r^2} \\\\E =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2

E =  ¹/₂ x 2 x (15)²

E = 225 J

Thus, the translational kinetic energy is equal to rotational kinetic energy

A man standing on the Earth can exert the same force with his legs as when he is standing
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

From the analogy of the problem we are made to know that "a man standing on the earth can exert the same force with his legs as when he is standing on the moon".

 This force he is exerting is due to his weight. If he can have the same weight on the earth and moon, therefore:

      weight  = mass x acceleration due gravity

His mass and acceleration due to gravity on both terrestrial bodies are the same.

So, his jump height will be the same on earth and on the moon.

In summary, we have been shown that his mass and the acceleration due to gravity on both planets are the same, therefore, his weight will also be the same. His jump height will also be same.
