Which statement best describes how waves carry energy?

Physics
2 answers:
ratelena [41]3 years ago

Correct answer choice is :


A) Energy moves from one place to another through the wave.


Explanation:


Waves can carry energy over a range without moving matter the complete distance. For instance, an ocean wave can move many kilometers without the water itself traveling many kilometers. The water moves up and down a motion recognized as a disturbance. A wave brings its energy without carrying matter. Waves are observed to travel through an ocean or lake, yet the water perpetually reverts to its rest state. Energy is carried through the medium, yet the water particles are not carried.

A large solar panel on a spacecraft in Earth orbit produces 1.0 kW of power when the panel is turned toward the sun. What power
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

e*P_s = 11 W

Explanation:

Given:

- e*P = 1.0 KW

- r_s = 9.5*r_e

- e is the efficiency of the panels

Find:

What power would the solar cell produce if the spacecraft were in orbit around Saturn

Solution:

- We use the relation between the intensity I and distance of light:

                                  I_1 / I_2 = ( r_2 / r_1 ) ^2

- The intensity of sun light at Saturn's orbit can be expressed as:

                                  I_s = I_e * ( r_e / r_s ) ^2

                                  I_s = ( 1.0 KW / e*a) * ( 1 / 9.5 )^2

                                  I_s = 11 W / e*a

- We know that P = I*a, hence we have:

                                  P_s = I_s*a

                                  P_s = 11 W / e

Hence,                       e*P_s = 11 W

Find the wavelength of the balmer series spectral line corresponding to n = 15.
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

371.2 mm

Explanation:

The Balmer series of spectral lines is obtained from the formula

1/λ = R(1/2² -1/n²) where λ = wavelength, R = Rydberg's constant = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

when n = 15

1/λ = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹(1/2² -1/15²)

    = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹(1/4 -1/225)

    = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹(0.25 - 0.0044)

    = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹ 0.245556

    = 2.693 10⁶ m⁻¹

So,

λ  = 1/2.693 10⁶ m⁻¹

    = 0.3712 10⁻⁶ m

    = 371.2 mm

What is the temperature of a sample of gas when the average translational kinetic energy of a molecule in the sample is 8.37 × 1
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

404K

Explanation:

Data given, Kinetic Energy.K.E=8.37*10^-21J

Note: as the temperature of a is increase, the rate of random movement will increase, hence leading to more collision per unit time. Hence we can say that the relationship between the kinetic energy and the temperature is a direct variation.

This relationship can be expressed as

K.E=\frac{3}{2}KT

where K is a constant of value 1.38*10^-23

Hence if we substitute the values, we arrive at

T=\frac{2/3(8.37*10^{-21})}{1.38*10^-23}\\ T=404K

converting to degree we have 131^{0}C
