Answer:

It's A

Explanation:

I & II Both seismic waves (that cause earthquakes) and sound waves (which sonar uses) can be compressed because they are longitudinal. All other wave types are electromagnetic waves and cannot be compressed.

Two spectators at a soccer game in Montjuic Stadium see, and a moment later hear, the ball being kicked on the playing field. Th

NikAS [45]

Answer:

a) 68.943 m

b) 41.846 m

c) 80.648 m

Explanation:

Given:

Delay in time for spectator A, t₁ = 0.201 s

Delay in time for spectator B, t₂ = 0.122 s

the delay in sound heard is the due to the distance being traveled by the sound from the kicker to the spectator

thus,

a) Distance of the kicker from A,

d₁ = speed of sound × time taken

d₁ = 343 m/s × 0.201 s = 68.943 m

b) Distance of the kicker from B,

d₂ = speed of sound × time taken

d₂ = 343 m/s × 0.122 = 41.846 m

c) Since the angle between the two spectators for the player is 90°

thus, a right angles triangle is formed.

where, the distance between the spectators is the hypotenuses (s) of the so formed triangle

Therefore,

s² = d₁² + d₂²

on substituting the values, we get

s² = 68.943² + 41.846²

s² = 6504.22

s = √6504.22

s = 80.648 m

hence, the distance between the spectators is 80.648 m

A person is using a rope to lower a 5.0-n bucket into a well with a constant speed of 2.0 m/s. What is the magnitude of the forc

OLga [1]

Answer:

5 N

Explanation:

The bucket is moving at a constant speed of 2m/s Therefore F=ma is 0 N for this to be correct the magnitude of the force exerted by the rope must be equal to the weight of the bucket which is 5 N

Andrei [34K]

Group 17 is the second column from the right in the periodic table and contains six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (As), and (Ts). Astatine and are radioactive elements with very short half-lives and thus do not occur naturally.

- A thin film of oil * (n = 1.45) on a puddle of water, producing different colors. What is the minimum thickness of a place whe

Darya [45]

Answer:

There will be a phase change at the first interface and no phase change at the second interface:

If the film is 1/4 wavelength thick this restriction will hold

The wavelength of the light in oil is 545 nm / 1.45 = 376 nm

376 nm / 4 = 94 nm

What might happen if water molecules did not have a slight negative charge on one end and a slight positive charge on the other?

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

It would not be possible the cohesion among water molecules by the polar covalent bonding.

Well, to understand this in a better way, let's begin by explaining that water is special due to its properties, which makes this fluid useful for many purposes and for the existence of life.

In this sense, one of the main properties of water is cohesion (molecular cohesion), which is the attraction of molecules to others of the same type. So, water molecule ( $H_{2}O$ ) has 2 hydrogen atoms attached to 1 oxygen atom and can stick to itself through hydrogen bonds.

How is this possible?

By the polar covalent bonding, a process in which electrons are shared unequally between atoms, due to the unequal distribution of electrons between atoms of different elements. In other words: slightly positive and slightly negative charges appear in different parts of the molecule.

Now, it can be said that a water molecule has a negative side (oxygen) and a positive side (hydrogen). This is how the oxygen atom tends to monopolize more electrons and keeps them away from hydrogen. Thanks to this polarity, water molecules can stick together.
