Answer:

Tech A is right.

Explanation:

Its the ability of quartz crystal that if we apply a mechanical stress on them by an applied force then they can produce the electricity or voltage. This phenomenon of producing electricity by squeezing a crystal is termed as piezoelectricity or a piezoelectric effect.

A 3.0kg mass tied to a string
dem82 [27]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Tension \ in \ the \ string \ (T) = 3 \ kN}

Given:

Mass (m) = 3.0 kg

Uniform speed (v) = 20 m/s

Length of string (r) = 40 cm = 0.4 m

To Find:

Tension in the string (T)

Explanation:

Tension (T) is the string will be equal to centripetal force (\sf F_c).

\boxed{ \bold{ T = F_c  =  \frac{m {v}^{2} }{r} }}

Substituting value of m, v & r in the equation:

\sf \implies T =  \frac{3 \times  {20}^{2} }{0.4}  \\  \\  \sf \implies T = \frac{3 \times 400}{0.4}  \\  \\  \sf \implies T =3 \times 1000 \\  \\  \sf \implies T =3000 \: N \\  \\ \sf \implies T =3 \: kN

\therefore

Tension in the string (T) = 3 kN

What is the S.I. unit of drift velocity and electron mobility?
DanielleElmas [232]
Drift velocity is equal to displacement of the moving object per unit time. The SI unit for displacement is meters while that of time is second. Hence the derived SI unit of velocity is meter per second. This also applies to electron mobility which relates to the displacement per unit time of a moving electron

An oil tanker has collided with a smaller vessel, resulting in an oil spill in a large, calm-water bay of the ocean. You are inv
PolarNik [594]

Complete Question

An oil tanker has collided with a smaller vessel, resulting in an oil spill in a large, calm-water bay of the ocean. You are investigating the environmental effects of the accident and need to know the area of the spill. The tanker captain informs you that 18000 liters of oil have escaped and that the oil has an index of refraction of n = 1.1. The index of refraction of the ocean water is 1.33. From the deck of your ship you note that in the sunlight the oil slick appears to be blue. A spectroscope confirms that the dominant wavelength from the surface of the spill is 485 nm. Assuming a uniform thickness, what is the largest total area oil slick

Answer:

The  largest total area of the oil slick  A = 8.257 *10^{9} \ m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The volume of oil the escaped is  V  = 18000 \ L

    The refractive index of oil is n_o = 1.1

     The refractive index of water is n_w = 1.33

      The wavelength of the light  is \lambda = 485 \ nm =  485 * 10^{-9} \ m

         

Generally the thickness of the oil for condition of constructive interference between the oil and the water is mathematically represented as

          d = m *\frac{\lambda}{2n_w}

Where is the order of interference of the light and it value ranges from 1, 2, 3,...n

It is usually take as 1 unless stated otherwise by the question

substituting value

      d = 1 * \frac{485 *10^{-9}}{2 * 1.1}    

      d = 218 nm    

The are can be mathematically evaluated as

        A = \frac{V}{d}

Substituting values

        A = \frac{18000}{218*10^{-8}}

        A = 8.257 *10^{9} \ m^2
