Answer:

decrease the volume of the cylinder.

Explanation:

In order to be able to solve this question we have to understand what Boyle's law is. According to Boyle's law; at constant temperature the pressure of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to to its volume.

The Boyle's law shows us the relationship between the pressure and the volume. So, the Important thing to note hear is that if the volume in a container is decreased then the pressure will increase (and vice versa) due to the fact that as the volume decreases the particles in that container makes more collision which will make the pressure to increase.

Since, the piston is moveable it means that we can decrease and increase the volume in the cylinder. So, if the decrease the volume of the cylinder then we will have an increase in the pressure of the gas below the piston.

Pulses A, B, C, and D all travel at 10 m/s on the same string but in opposite directions. The string is depicted at time t=0 in
Anit [1.1K]

(a) The displacement of point P at time t=0.10s is determined as +2cm.

(b) The displacement of point P at time t=0.20s is determined as -2cm.

<h3>What is displacement?</h3>

Displacement is the change in position of an object. It is obtained from the product of velocity and time of motion.

x = vt

<h3>Displacement of the waves after 0.1 s</h3>

x = 10 m/s x 0.1 s = 1 m

Each wave will travel 1 m to the right or to the left, depending on the initial direction.

  • wave B from left will stop at point 0 m
  • wave A from left will stop at point -1 m
  • wave C from right will stop at point 0 m
  • wave D from right will stop at point + 1 m

wave B and C superimposed and the displacement will be between A and D.

Amplitude of A = - 2cm

Amplitude of D = + 4cm

Displacement of point P = 4 cm - 2 cm =  2cm

<h3>Displacement of the waves after 0.2 s</h3>

x = 10 m/s x 0.1 s = 2 m

Each wave will travel 2 m to the right or to the left, depending on the initial direction.

  • wave B from left will stop at point 1 m
  • wave A from left will stop at point 0 m
  • wave C from right will stop at point -1 m
  • wave D from right will stop at point 0 m

Displacement of point P = (amplitude B + amplitude C) + (amplitude A + amplitude D)

Displacement of point P= (2cm - 2cm) + (2 cm - 4cm)= -2cm

Tomtit [17]

C.  quartz and amethyst

Explanation:

Quartz and amethyst can be told apart by their color without performing a streak test on them.

This is because from the given choices, their color is different.

   quartz is a colorless

   amethyst is purple

  • Quartz is silicate mineral purely made of silicon and oxygen.
  • Amethyst is a variety of quartz but containing some mineral inclusions that makes its color different.
  • Preforming the streak test gives their color to be white.
  • This cannot be useful in identifying the minerals they contain.
  • Since their natural colors are distinct, it is a more diagnostics tool .
