Name 2 ways that sound waves and electromagnetic waves are different. Describe specifically.

1 answer:

6 0

Answer:Sound waves are longitudinal waves that is, are transmitted in the same direction of oscillation of the particles in the medium. Electromagnetic waves are transverse ie, the electric and magnetic fields, which are perpendicular to each other, oscillate perpendicularly to the direction of wave propagation.

Savatey [412]

Answer:N=322.53 rpm

Explanation:

Given

Linear velocity (v)=1.25 m/s

Position from center is 3.7 cm

we know

$v=\omega \times r$

$1.25\times 100=\omega \times 3.7$

$\omega =\frac{125}{3.7}=33.78$

and $\frac{2\pi N}{60}=\omega$

$N=\frac{\omega \times 60}{2\pi }$

$N=\frac{33.78\times 60}{2\pi }$

N=322.53 rpm

If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 65 ft/s, its height in feet after t seconds is given by

fgiga [73]

Answer:

a) $v_{1}=\frac{(62.5-66)ft}{(2.5-2)s}=-7ft/s$

$v_{2}=\frac{(65.94-66)ft}{(2.1-2)s}=-0.6ft/s$

$v_{3}=\frac{(66.0084-66)ft}{(2.01-2)s}=0.84ft/s$

$v_{4}=\frac{(66.001-66)ft}{(2.001-2)s}=1ft/s$

b) $v=65-32(2)=1ft/s$

Explanation:

From the exercise we got the ball's equation of position:

$y=65t-16t^{2}$

a) To find the average velocity at the given time we need to use the following formula:

$v=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{t_{2}-t_{1} }$

Being said that, we need to find the ball's position at t=2, t=2.5, t=2.1, t=2.01, t=2.001

$y_{t=2}=65(2)-16(2)^{2} =66ft$

$y_{t=2.5}=65(2.5)-16(2.5)^{2} =62.5ft$

$v_{1}=\frac{(62.5-66)ft}{(2.5-2)s}=-7ft/s$

$y_{t=2.1}=65(2.1)-16(2.1)^{2} =65.94ft$

$v_{2}=\frac{(65.94-66)ft}{(2.1-2)s}=-0.6ft/s$

$y_{t=2.01}=65(2.01)-16(2.01)^{2} =66.0084ft$

$v_{3}=\frac{(66.0084-66)ft}{(2.01-2)s}=0.84ft/s$

$y_{t=2.001}=65(2.001)-16(2.001)^{2} =66.001ft$

$v_{4}=\frac{(66.001-66)ft}{(2.001-2)s}=1ft/s$

b) To find the instantaneous velocity we need to derivate the equation

$v=\frac{df}{dt}=65-32t$

$v=65-32(2)=1ft/s$

3. How do you represent the strength of a<br> force in a free-body diagram?

ivann1987 [24]

Generally, the length of the line will indicate how strong the force is. If you have two opposing forces and one is higher than the other, you would draw the line of the higher force visibly longer.
