Explain what parallel medium boundaries do to the path of the wave after it travels through both boundaries. (air and water)

Physics
1 answer:
Brilliant_brown [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The boundaries cause the waves to change direction an effect called <u>refraction.</u>

Explanation:

When a wave crosses a boundary between different materials, the speed of the wave and its wavelength changes.When passing from air to water the two properties (speed and wavelength) decreases, and the wave is observed to change direction as it crosses the boundary between the two material.The bending of the wave is called refraction.

Zorn and Porsha are ice skating. Porsha has a mass of 60 kg, and Zorn has a mass of 40 kg. As they face each
algol13

Assuming the friction between the skaters and the ice is  negligible, the magnitude of Porsha's acceleration is 2.8m/s².

Missing part of the question: determine the magnitude of Porsha's acceleration.

Given the data in the question;

  • Mass of Porsha; m_{porsha} = 60kg
  • Mass of Zorn; m_{zorn} = 40kg
  • Force of Porsha push; F_{porsha} = 168N

Magnitude of Porsha's acceleration; a = \ ?

To determine the magnitude of Porsha's acceleration, we use Newton's second laws of motion:

F = m*a

Where m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration.

We substitute the mass of Porsha and the force he used into the equation

168N = 60kg * a\\\\a = \frac{168kg.m/s^2}{60kg}\\\\a = 2.8m/s^2

Therefore, assuming the friction between the skaters and the ice is  negligible, the magnitude of Porsha's acceleration is 2.8m/s².

Notice that in each conversion factor the numerator equals the denominator when units are taken into account. A common error in
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

he factor for the temporal part 1.296 107 s² = h²

 m / s² = 12960 km / h²

Explanation:

This is a unit conversion exercise.

In the unit conversion, the size of the object is not changed, only the value with respect to which it is measured is changed, for this reason in the conversion the amount that is in parentheses must be worth one.

In this case, it is requested to convert a measure km/h²

Unfortunately, it is not clearly indicated what measure it is, but the most used unit in physics is   m / s² , which is a measure of acceleration. Let's cut this down

the factor for the distance is 1000 m = 1 km

the factor for time is 3600 s = 1 h

let's make the conversion

        m / s² (1km / 1000 m) (3600 s / 1h)²

note that as time is squared the conversion factor is also squared

        m / s² = 12960 km / h²

the factor for the temporal part 1.29 107 s² = h²
