A. In your own words, define what a transverse wave is.

Physics
1 answer:
olasank [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a) From definition a transverse wave is which one where the elements moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave. For example is a wave is moving from the left to the right the elements would be wibrating or moving upward or downward.

We have a lot examples for a transverse wave. For example water waves, strings on the musical instruments , light and radio waves.

b) We can identify a transverse wave if the particles are displaced perpendicular to the direction of the wave. Usually these types of wave occur in elastic solids. And we can identify it when we see a pattern perpendicular between the wave direction and the particles motion. In simple words we need to see that the wave is moving down and up.

Sugar dissolved in water is an example of?
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

D. Solution

Explanation:

Sugar dissolved in water is an example of solution.

A solution is a homogenous mixture of solutes and solvents.

In a solution the solute particles ae distributed uniformly in the solvents. The solute is the substance and it is the sugar here that is dissolved to make a solution.

The solvent is the water in this instance that helps to dissolve the solute.

What pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c?
Ronch [10]

The pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c is 4.1atm.

Therefore, option A is correct option.

Given,

Mass m = 14g

Volume= 3.5L

Temperature T= 75+273 = 348 K

Molar mass of CO = 28g/mol

Universal gas constant R= 0.082057L

Number of moles in 14 g of CO is

n= mass/ molar mass

= 14/28

= 0.5 mol

As we know that

PV= nRT

P × 3.5 = 0.5 × 0.082057 × 348

P × 3.5 = 14.277

P = 14.277/3.5

P = 4.0794 atm

P = 4.1 atm.

Thus we concluded that the pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c is 4.1atm.

In each of the four situations below an object is experiencing (nearly) uniform circular motion. State what force is providing t
Stells [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that a centripetal force is a form of force that gives rise or causes a body to move in a curved path.

Hence;

1. When a car is being driven around a track, it is the FORCE OF FRICTION that is acting upon the turned wheels of the vehicle, which transforms into the centripetal force required for circular motion.

2. When a ball being is swung on the end of a string, TENSION FORCE acts upon the ball, which transforms the centripetal force required for circular motion.

3. When the moon is orbiting the earth, it is the FORCE OF GRAVITY acting upon the moon, which transforms the centripetal force required for circular motion.

4. A rotating wheel on the other hand has NO centripetal force because centripetal force is pull towards the center of a motion. However the speed of the object is tangent to the circle, while the direction of the force is also perpendicular to the direction of the rotating wheel.

You are driving your car along a country road at a speed of 27.0 m/s. as you come over the crest of a hill, you notice a farm tr
Bezzdna [24]

speed of the car = 27 m/s

speed of truck ahead = 10 m/s

relative speed of car with respect to truck

v_r = 27 - 10 = 17 m/s

relative deceleration of car

a_r = -7 m/s^2

now the distance before they stop with respect to each other is given by

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - 17^2 = 2 *(-7)*d

d = 20.6 m

so it will come at the same speed of truck after 20.6 m distance and hence it will not hit the truck as the distance of the truck is 25 m from car

Part b)

Distance traveled by car before it stops is given by

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a s

0^2  - 27^2 = 2 * (-7)* s

s = 52.1 m

so it will stop after it will cover total 52.1 m distance

Part c)

time taken by the car to stop

v_f - v_i = at

0 - 27 = (-7) * t

t = 3.86 s

now the distance covered by truck in same time

d = 3.86 * 10 = 38.6 m

now after the car will stop its distance from the truck is

D = 25 + 38.6 - 52.1 = 11.5 m

<em>so the distance between them is 11.5 m</em>

how does distance change when the amount of effort force is increased while the amount of work dine remains the same
Elodia [21]
Work = Force * Displacement.

If the Work is the same, and the Force is increased, from the formula above it means the displacement would have to be reduced. 

So the displacement (a distance in a specified direction)  would be reduced.
