Wave energy can only be transmitted through a material medium. wave energy can only be transmitted through a material medium.

1 answer:

3 0

The correct answer is False.
In fact, electromagnetic waves (which carry energy), do not need a material medium to travel, because they can travel in vacuum as well. So, wave energy can be transmitted also through vacuum.

A planet is discovered orbiting around a star in the galaxy Andromeda at four times the distance from the star as Earth is from

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Tp/Te = 2

Therefore, the orbital period of the planet is twice that of the earth's orbital period.

Explanation:

The orbital period of a planet around a star can be expressed mathematically as;

T = 2π√(r^3)/(Gm)

Where;

r = radius of orbit

G = gravitational constant

m = mass of the star

Given;

Let R represent radius of earth orbit and r the radius of planet orbit,

Let M represent the mass of sun and m the mass of the star.

r = 4R

m = 16M

For earth;

Te = 2π√(R^3)/(GM)

For planet;

Tp = 2π√(r^3)/(Gm)

Substituting the given values;

Tp = 2π√((4R)^3)/(16GM) = 2π√(64R^3)/(16GM)

Tp = 2π√(4R^3)/(GM)

Tp = 2 × 2π√(R^3)/(GM)

So,

Tp/Te = (2 × 2π√(R^3)/(GM))/( 2π√(R^3)/(GM))

Tp/Te = 2

Therefore, the orbital period of the planet is twice that of the earth's orbital period.

Answer:

$3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J$

Explanation:

In order to convert the work function of cesium from electronvolts to Joules, we must use the following conversion factor:

$1 eV = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J$

In our problem, the work function of cesium is

$E=2.1 eV$

so, we can convert it into Joules by using the following proportion:

$1 eV : 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J = 2.1 eV : x\\x=\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J)(2.1 eV)}{1 eV}=3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J$

A diverging lens (f1 = -12.0cm) is located 50.0 cm to the left of a converging lens (f2 = 34.0 cm). A 2.0 cm-tall object stands

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The final image relative to the converging lens is 34 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Focal length of diverging lens = -12.0 cm

Focal length of converging lens = 34.0 cm

Height of object = 2.0 cm

Distance of object = 12 cm

Because object at focal point

We need to calculate the image distance of diverging lens

Using formula of lens

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}$

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-12}-\dfrac{1}{-12}$

$v=\infty$

The rays are parallel to the principle axis after passing from the diverging lens.

We need to calculate the image distance of converging lens

Now, object distance is ∞

Using formula of lens

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{34}-\dfrac{1}{\infty}$

$v=34$

The image distance is 34 cm right to the converging lens.

Hence, The final image relative to the converging lens is 34 cm.
