nexus9112 [7]3 years ago
7 0
Mechanical waves, it needs a certain medium to travel through. This medium can be a solid, liquid and gas. There are three types of mechanical waves namely, sound wave, water, and waves through the ropes.

A longitudinal wave is a wave that vibrates in a parallel direction with the motion. Also known as a compression wave. Both mechanical and longitudinal waves produce a sound.

Current flowing in a circuit depends on two variables. Identify these variables and their relationship to current.
joja [24]

Question is Incomplete, Complete question is given below.

Current flowing in a circuit depends on two variables. Identify these variables and their relationship to current.

A) Current is proportionate to the conductance of the circuit and precisely proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

B) Current is conversely proportional to the electrical tension of the circuit and corresponds to the resistance across the circuit.

C) Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

D) Current is commensurate to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the electric pressure applied across the circuit.

Answer:

C) Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

Explanation:

Now Ohms Law states that, "So long as a physical state of a conductor remains the potential difference applied to the conductor is directly proportional to current flowing through it."

I ∝ V

V=IR also I=V/R

where R is the Resistance

Hence, From above equation we can say that Current increases when there is increase in Voltage but Current decreases as the resistance decreases.

Hence,Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

11. A fundamental property of light is that it: 15
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Curves around objects

Explanation:

Diffraction is a property of light described by bending of light around an object. This ability of light to bend around edges has facilitated optical effects of light where there is interference of light waves. Other properties of light are: reflection, refraction, polarization, scattering of light, and interference of light.

A hypothetical planet has a mass 2.81 times that of Earth, but the same radius.
patriot [66]

The acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet is 27.38 m/s².

<h3>Acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet</h3>

g = GM/R²

where;

  • G is universal gravitation constant
  • M is mass of the planet
  • R is radius of the planet
  • g is acceleration due to gravity = ?

g = (6.626 x 10⁻¹¹ x 2.81 x 5.97 x 10²⁴) / (6371 x 10³)²

g = 27.38 m/s²

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet is 27.38 m/s².

Please help with these physics problems 1. A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

1.) h = 164.8 m

2.) U = 49.1 m/s

3.) t = 1.43 seconds

Explanation:

1.) A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to the ground. The height of the building is...? 

Since the soccer ball is dropped from the building, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Substitutes the time into the formula

h = 1/2 × 9.8 × 5.8^2

h = 164.8 m

2. The Falcon 9 launches to a height of 123 meters. What is its vertical initial velocity?

At maximum height final velocity = 0

Using the third law of motion

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 123

U^2 = 2410.8

U = 49.1 m/s

3. An apple falls from rest off a 10.m m tree. How long will it take before it hits the ground?

Since the apple fall from rest, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using the second equation of motion,

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

substitute all the parameters into the formula

10 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

10 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 10/4.9

t^2 = 2.04

t = 1.43 seconds

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

60

Explanation:

Translation -

A book weighing 12 N is balanced on a table. Knowing that the static friction coefficient is 0.5, how much is the friction force worth?

Friction force is

f = u * n

f = 0.5 * 12N

f = 60
