Which statement best describes a wave?

Physics
2 answers:
OleMash [197]2 years ago

Answer:

A continuous transmission of energy from one location to the next.                        

Explanation:

Wave is a disturbance which continuously transmit energy from one location to another. It does not transmit any mass. There are many types of waves like mechanical wave, electromagnetic wave, gravitational waves etc.

The speed of a wave is given by :

v=\nu \times \lambda

\nu is the frequency of wave

\lambda is the wavelength of the wave

So, the correct option is (d) "a continuous transmission of energy from one location to the next".

Correct answer choice is:

D. A continuous transmission of energy from one location to the next.

Explanation:

Waves include the carrier of energy without the carrier of matter. In outcome, a wave can be characterized as a change that progresses into a medium, carrying energy from one spot (its source) to different spot without carrying matter.

Directions: Read the following excerpts carefully, then identify whether they employ informative, persuasive, or argumentative w
Savatey [412]

Hi there!

Informative writing has the intent to inform or educate us on a particular topic or event. It gives us more information and insight onto something.

Persuasive writing has the intent of convincing us to believe in a certain idea or to perform a certain action. For instance, advertisements have a persuasive intent; they are persuading us to buy a product or service.

Argumentative writing is similar to persuasive writing in the sense that they are persuading us to believe a certain idea. However, they are often based on logic and fact rather than opinions.

Let's look at the first excerpt.

<em>This morning at 9 a.m., a school bus collided with a car at the intersection of Osmena and Cabrera streets. The passengers were not injured, but the medical personnel checked each student as well as the driver before they were transported to their school.</em>

This text doesn't try to convince us in believing something. It doesn't argue anything and it only tries to give us more insight onto the event, which is a car accident. No opinions are stated and only events are given.

Therefore, this excerpt uses an informative writing technique.

The energy of a photon of light is __________ proportional to its frequency and __________ proportional to its wavelength.
icang [17]

Answer:

D) directly, inversely

Explanation:

The energy of a photon of light is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength.

Frequency is the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time.

Wavelength is the is the distance between successive crests or troughs on a wave.

 Mathematically, frequency is related to wavelength and velocity using;

             Energy   =  h x f

                      where h is the Planck's constant

                                  f is the frequency

         

                   Since c  = f ∧

where f is the frequency of the wave

           ∧ is the wavelength of the wave

           c is the speed of light

So;

                 f  = c/∧

  Therefore;

                E  = \frac{h c}{wavelength}

From the equation, we see an inverse relationship between E and wavelength and a direct one with frequency.

Air enters a turbine operating at steady state at 8 bar, 1600 K and expands to 0.8 bar. The turbine is well insulated, and kinet
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

the maximum theoretical work that could be developed by the turbine is 775.140kJ/kg

Explanation:

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the adiabatic process that relate the temperature and pressure variables

Mathematically this can be determined as

\frac{T_2}{T_1} = (\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{(\frac{\gamma-1}{\gamma})}

Where

Temperature at inlet of turbine

Temperature at exit of turbine

Pressure at exit of turbine

Pressure at exit of turbine

The steady flow Energy equation for an open system is given as follows:

m_i = m_0 = mm(h_i+\frac{V_i^2}{2}+gZ_i)+Q = m(h_0+\frac{V_0^2}{2}+gZ_0)+W

Where,

m = mass

m(i) = mass at inlet

m(o)= Mass at outlet

h(i)= Enthalpy at inlet

h(o)= Enthalpy at outlet

W = Work done

Q = Heat transferred

v(i) = Velocity at inlet

v(o)= Velocity at outlet

Z(i)= Height at inlet

Z(o)= Height at outlet

For the insulated system with neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects

h_i = h_0 + WW = h_i -h_0

Using the relation T-P we can find the final temperature:

\frac{T_2}{T_1} = (\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{(\frac{\gamma-1}{\gamma})}\\

\frac{T_2}{1600K} = (\frac{0.8bar}{8nar})^{(\frac{1.4-1}{1.4})}\\ = 828.716K

From this point we can find the work done using the value of the specific heat of the air that is 1,005kJ / kgK

W = h_i -h_0W = C_p (T_1-T_2)W = 1.005(1600 - 828.716)W = 775.140kJ/Kg

the maximum theoretical work that could be developed by the turbine is 775.140kJ/kg
