Answer:

Since incident wave and its reflected part in opposite phase superimpose on each other

So correct answer will be

Option B

Explanation:

Here we know that the wave reflection is done by rigid boundary

So when wave is reflected by the boundary then its phase is reversed by 180 degree

so the reflected wave is in reverse phase from the boundary

so we can superimpose the reflected part with incident wave to dine the resultant wave

So the phenomenon is given as follow

a 2 meter tall astronaut standing on mars drops her glasses from her nose. how long will the astronaut have before he hits the g

lorasvet [3.4K]

Here,
Height (S) = 2m
Gravity on mars (g) = 3.7m/s^2
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s^2
By the one of the formula of the motion,
S = ut + 1/2at^2
2 = 0 * t + 1/2*3.7*t^2
2 = 1.85t^2
t^2 = 2/1.85 = 1.081
t =1.03s
So, it will take 1.03s long..

A new interstate highway is being built with a design speed of 120 km/h. For one of the horizontal curves, the radius (measured

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

28.79%

Explanation:

Given

Design Speed, V = 120km/h = 33.33m/s

Radius, R = 300m

Side Friction, Fs = 0.09

Gravitational Constant = 9.8m/s²

Using the following formula, we'll solve the required rate of superelevation.

e + Fs = V²/gR where e = rate

e = V²/gR - Fs

e = (33.33)²/(9.8 * 300) - 0.09

e = 0.287853367346938

e = 28.79%

Hence, the required rate of superelevation for the curve is calculated as 28.79%

What is true of an object pulled inward in an electric field?

slava [35]

Answer:

option b

Explanation:

There is an object pulled inward in an electric field.

We have to find out of the four options given which is true.

a) The object has a neutral charge is false since when electric field pulls the object inward, there is a charge inside.

b) The object has a charge opposite that of the field, this option is correct since there will be an equal and opposite charge created by the object

c) The object has a negative charge will be correct only if the original charge was positive hence wrong

d) The object has a charge the same as that of the field is incorrect since this would be opposite the charge

So only option b is right

Conductivities are often measured by comparing the resistance of a cell filled with the sample to its resistance when filled wit

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

1200 Sm^2mol^-1

Explanation:

Given data :

conductivity of water ( kwater ) = 76 mS m^-1 = 0.076 Sm^-1

conductivity of kcl (aq)( Kkcl ) = 1.1639 Sm^-1

Kkcl = 1.1639 - 0.076 = 1.0879 Sm^-1

Resistance = 33.21 Ω

where conductivity can be expressed as = $\frac{Cell constant}{Resistance }$

hence cell constant = conductivity * Resistance

= 1.0879 * 33.21 = 36.13m^-1

conductivity of CH3COOH ( kCH3COOH ) = 36.13 / 300

= 0.120 Sm^-1

<u>Determine the molar conductivity of acetic acid</u>

= ( kCH3COOH * 1000 ) / C

C = 0.1 mol dm

= (0.120 * 1000) / 0.1 = 1200 Sm^2mol^-1

A crate rests on a flatbed truck which is initially traveling at 17.9 m/s on a level road. The driver applies the brakes and the

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.

Explanation:

The minimum coefficient of friction required to keep the crate from sliding can be found as follows:

$-F_{f} + F = 0$

$-F_{f} + ma = 0$

$\mu mg = ma$

$\mu = \frac{a}{g}$

Where:

μ: is the coefficient of friction

m: is the mass of the crate

g: is the gravity

a: is the acceleration of the truck

The acceleration of the truck can be found by using the following equation:

$v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} + 2ad$

$a = \frac{v_{f}^{2} - v_{0}^{2}}{2d}$

Where:

d: is the distance traveled = 46.1 m

$v_{f}$ : is the final speed of the truck = 0 (it stops)

$v_{0}$ : is the initial speed of the truck = 17.9 m/s

$a = \frac{-(17.9 m/s)^{2}}{2*46.1 m} = -3.48 m/s^{2}$

If we take the reference system on the crate, the force will be positive since the crate will feel the movement in the positive direction.

$\mu = \frac{a}{g}$

$\mu = \frac{3.48 m/s^{2}}{9.81 m/s^{2}}$

$\mu = 0.35$

Therefore, the minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.

I hope it helps you!
