Answer:

A). The amplitude

Explanation:

When two or more coherent waves superimpose then the resultant wave is given as

$y = y_1 + y_2 + y_3.........................$

here the intensity of resultant wave is different from the intensity of the individual waves.

This phenomenon is known as interference

As we know that intensity of wave is directly depends on the square of the amplitude of the wave

So here we can say that after interference the intensity of the wave will change.

$I = kA^2$

So correct answer is

A). The amplitude

A lab assistant drops a 400.0-g piece of metal at 100.0°C into a 100.0-g aluminum cup containing 500.0 g of water at In a few mi

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

2274 J/kg ∙ K

Explanation:

The complete statement of the question is :

A lab assistant drops a 400.0-g piece of metal at 100.0°C into a 100.0-g aluminum cup containing 500.0 g of water at 15 °C. In a few minutes, she measures the final temperature of the system to be 40.0°C. What is the specific heat of the 400.0-g piece of metal, assuming that no significant heat is exchanged with the surroundings? The specific heat of this aluminum is 900.0 J/kg ∙ K and that of water is 4186 J/kg ∙ K.

$m_{m}$ = mass of metal = 400 g

$c_{m}$ = specific heat of metal = ?

$T_{mi}$ = initial temperature of metal = 100 °C

$m_{a}$ = mass of aluminum cup = 100 g

$c_{a}$ = specific heat of aluminum cup = 900.0 J/kg ∙ K

$T_{ai}$ = initial temperature of aluminum cup = 15 °C

$m_{w}$ = mass of water = 500 g

$c_{w}$ = specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg ∙ K

$T_{wi}$ = initial temperature of water = 15 °C

$T$ = Final equilibrium temperature = 40 °C

Using conservation of energy

heat lost by metal = heat gained by aluminum cup + heat gained by water

$m_{m} c_{m} (T_{mi} - T) = m_{a} c_{a} (T - T_{ai}) + m_{w} c_{w} (T - T_{wi} ) \\(400) (100 - 40) c_{m} = (100) (900) (40- 15) + (500) (4186) (40 - 15)\\ c_{m} = 2274 Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$

A kid on a playground swing makes a complete to-and-fro swing each 2 seconds.

sashaice [31]

Answer:

The frequency of the swing: 1/2 Hertz

The period is: 2 Seconds

Explanation:

The time the kid takes to make a complete to-and-fro swing = 2 seconds

The period, T, is the time it takes to make one complete cycle of an oscillatory motion, therefore, we have;

The frequency, f, is the number of cycles completed each second, therefore, we have;

The time for 1 cycle = 2 seconds

2 seconds = 1 cycle

Dividing both sides by 2 gives;

2/2 seconds = 1/2 cycles

2/2 = 1

In 2/2 = 1 seconds The number of cycles completed = 1/2 cycles

Therefore, the number of cycles completed per (one) second = 1/2 cycles

Therefore the frequency of the swing, f = 1/2 cycle/seconds = 1/2 Hertz

The period, T, is the time it takes to complete one to-and-fro swing which is one cycle which is 2 seconds

Therefore, the period is 2 Seconds.

the specific heat of water is 4.2 j/c. if it takes 31,500 joules to heat to warm 750 g of water, what was the temperature change

defon

The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of a substance by $\Delta T$ is given by
$Q=mC_s \Delta T$
where
m is the mass of the substance
$C_s$ the specific heat capacity
$\Delta T$ the increase in temperature

In our problem, the mass of the water is m=750 g, the specific heat is $C_s = 4.2 J/g ^{\circ}C$ and the amount of heat supplied is $Q=31500 J$ , so if we re-arrange the previous formula we find the increase in temperature of the water:
$\Delta T= \frac{Q}{m C_s}= \frac{31500 J}{(750 g)(4.20 J/g^{\circ} C)}=10^{\circ}C$

current is passed through two parallel conductors in the same direction. If the conductors are placed near each other,they will

svlad2 [7]

If current is passed through two parallel conductors in the same direction and the conductors are placed near each other, they will attract each other.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current can be defined as the flow of electrons.

Since electrons are easily removed from atom and are very mobile, the flow of electrons constitute an electric current.

Materials which allow electric current to flow through them are known as conductors. Examples of conductors are metals, and electrolytes.

On the other hand, materials which do not allow electric current to pass through them are known as insulators. Examples of insulators are wood and rubber.

The flow of current is known as electricity.

Parallel conductors with current flowing through them in the same direction are attracted to each other as a result of a magnetic field produced by the flow of current.

In conclusion, conductors allow electric current to pass through and the flow of current through a conductor produces a magnetic field.
