Which of the following statements is accurate? A) Compressions and rarefactions occur throughout a transverse wave. B) The wavel

ength of both transverse and longitudinal waves is measured parallel to the direction of the travel of the wave. C) Sound waves passing through the air will do so as transverse waves, which vibrate vertically and still retain their horizontal positions. D) Amplitude of longitudinal waves is measured at right angles to the direction of the travel of the wave and represents the maximum distance the molecule has moved from its normal position.

A rubber ball and a lump of clay have equal mass. They are thrown with equal speed against a wall. The ball bounces back with ne
gregori [183]

Answer:

The ball experiences the greater momentum change

Explanation:

The momentum change of each object is given by:

\Delta p = m \Delta v= m (v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

Both objects have same mass m and same initial velocity u. So we have:

- For the ball, the final velocity is

v=-u

Since it bounces back (so, opposite direction --> negative sign) with same speed (so, the magnitude of the final velocity is still u). So the change in momentum is

\Delta p=m(v-u)=m((-u)-u)=-2mu

- For the clay, the final velocity is

v=0

since it sticks to the wall. So, the change in momentum is

\Delta p = m(v-u)=m(0-u)=-mu

So we see that the greater momentum change (in magnitude) is experienced by the ball.

After a laser bean passes through two thin parallel slits, thefirst completely dark fringes occur at ± 15.00with the original di
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

143 °

Explanation:

a ) If d be the distance between slits , λ be wavelength of light used and at angle θ nth dark fringe is formed then

d sinθ = ( 2n+1) λ/2

for first dark fringe

d sinθ = λ/2

d /λ = 1/ 2 sinθ

1 / 2 sin15

= 1.93

b )

For intensity of fringe at angle θ,  the relation is

I = I₀ cos²θ

I / I₀  = cos²θ/2

Given I / I₀ =0. 1

0.1 = cos²θ/2

θ/2 = 71.5

θ = 143 °

A block of metal is 3 cm on each side. It has a mass of 283.5 grams. What is the density of the metal.
Luden [163]
Density =  \frac{Mass}{Volume}
\\\rho=\frac{m}{V}
\\\\\rho=\frac{283.5}{3^3}
\\\\\rho=\frac{283.5}{27}
\\\\\rho = 10.5  g/cm^3
