Answer:

a

Explanation:

Undersea mountain ranges are mountain ranges that are mostly or entirely underwater, and specifically under the surface of an ocean. If originated from current tectonic forces, they are often referred to as a mid-ocean ridge. In contrast, if formed by past above-water volcanism, they are known as a seamount chain.

As the wavelength of light decreases,<br> What happens
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Waves. Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light. ... The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction.

Explanation:

As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. ... Mechanical and electromagnetic waves with long wavelengths contain less energy than waves with short wavelengths.

vector u has a magnitude of 20 and direction of 0°.vector v has amagnitude of 40and a direction of 60°.find the magnitude and di
pantera1 [17]

Addition of vectors:

vector u

has a magnitude of 20 and a direction of 0º with respect to the horizontal, vector v has a magnitude of 40 and a direction of 60º with respect to the horizontal.

a) Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant to the nearest whole

number.

Vector Sum:

The resultant of two vectors is simply the vector sum of the vectors. There are a handful of ways to present the resultant factor; the notation that shows the vector magnitude and direction is called the polar vector notation. An example of a vector presented in polar vector notation is

a∠θ where a is the magnitude and θis the angle that the vector makes with the horizontal axis.

Answer and Explanation:

Let's first present the vectors in rectangular vector notation.

For the vector →u of magnitude 20 and direction 0∘ to the horizontal axis, the vector is →u=^i20.

For the vector →v

of magnitude 40 and direction 60∘ to the horizontal axis, the vector is →v=^i40cos60∘+^j40sin60∘.

The resultant vector →w is the vector sum of the vectors, i.e.

→w=→u+→v

=^i20+^i40cos60∘+^j40sin60∘

=^i(20+40cos60∘)+^j(40sin60∘)

=^i40+^j20√3

For a vector ^ix+^jy, the magnitude of the vector is √x2+y2 and the direction above the horizontal axis is θ=tan−1(yx).

Let's use the formulas:

|→w|∠θ=√(40)2+(20√3)2∠tan−1(20√340)≈52.9∠40.9∘

The magnitude of the vector is about 53 units in the direction 41-degrees above the horizontal axis.

A laser beam with a frequency of 180 Hz forms an 8 m standing wave with 10 nodes.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:33

Explanation:

F = frequency

N =  Node count

w = wave lenght

v = wave velocity

L = distance wave traveled

First find wave length of laser

w = (2/(N))*(L)

w = (2/(10))*(8)

w = 1.6

then using (w), find velocity

V =  (w)(F)

V = (1.6)*(108)

V = 288

Plug in V and the new frequency to solve for new node count

F = NV/2L

(600) = (N)*(288) / 2 * (8)

(N) = 33.33

there are 33 nodes

Two wires A and B with circular cross-section are made of the same metal and have equal lengths, but the resistance of wire A is
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

r₁/r₂ = 1/2 = 0.5

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by the following formula:

R = ρL/A

where,

R = Resistance of wire

ρ = resistivity of the material of wire

L = Length of wire

A = Cross-sectional area of wire = πr²

r = radius of wire

Therefore,

R = ρL/πr²

<u>FOR WIRE A</u>:

R₁ = ρ₁L₁/πr₁²   -------- equation 1

<u>FOR WIRE B</u>:

R₂ = ρ₂L₂/πr₂²   -------- equation 2

It is given that resistance of wire A is four times greater than the resistance of wire B.

R₁ = 4 R₂

using values from equation 1 and equation 2:

ρ₁L₁/πr₁² = 4ρ₂L₂/πr₂²

since, the material and length of both wires are same.

ρ₁ = ρ₂ = ρ

L₁ = L₂ = L

Therefore,

ρL/πr₁² = 4ρL/πr₂²

1/r₁² = 4/r₂²

r₁²/r₂² = 1/4

taking square root on both sides:

<u>r₁/r₂ = 1/2 = 0.5</u>
