Answer:
The wavelength stays the same.
Explanation:
When the amplitude is increased, the wavelength stays the same.
Here the wavelength doesn't depend upon the amplitude.
Answer:
The strength of the magnetic field that the line produces is
.
Explanation:
From Biot-Savart law, the equation to determine the strength of the magnetic field for any straight wire can be deduced:
(1)
Where
is the permiability constant, I is the current and r is the distance from the wire.
Notice that it is necessary to express the current, I, from kiloampere to ampere.
⇒ 
Finally, equation 1 can be used:
Hence, the strength of the magnetic field that the line produces is
.
Answer: 100 suns
Explanation:
We can solve this with the following relation:

Where:
is the diameter of a dime
is the diameter of the Sun
is the distance between the Sun and the pinhole
is the amount of dimes that fit in a distance between the sunball and the pinhole
Finding
:


This is roughly the diameter of the Sun
Now, the distance between the Earth and the Sun is one astronomical unit (1 AU), which is equal to:

So, we have to divide this distance between
in order to find how many suns could it fit in this distance:

Explanation:
We'll need two equations.
v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)
where v is the final velocity, v₀ is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, x is the final position, and x₀ is the initial position.
x = x₀ + ½ (v + v₀)t
where t is time.
Given:
v = 47.5 m/s
v₀ = 34.3 m/s
x - x₀ = 40100 m
Find: a and t
(47.5)² = (34.3)² + 2a(40100)
a = 0.0135 m/s²
40100 = ½ (47.5 + 34.3)t
t = 980 s
Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
Elastic collision is defined as a collision where the kinetic energy of the system remains same. Both linear momentum and kinetic energy are conserved in case of an elastic collision.
Inelastic collision is defined as a collision where kinetic energy of the system is not conserved whereas the linear momentum is conserved. This loss of kinetic energy may due to the conversion to thermal energy or sound energy or may be due to the deformation of the materials colliding with each other.
As given in the problem, before the collision, total momentum of the system is
and the kinetic energy is
. After the collision, the total momentum of the system is
, but the kinetic energy is reduced to
. So some amount of kinetic energy is lost during the collision.
Therefor the situation describes an inelastic collision (and it could NOT be elastic).
