Answer:

The boundaries cause the waves to change direction an effect called refraction.

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.

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

0.07°C

Explanation:

solution:

the speed of a sound in water is:

v(T)=1480+4(T-4°C)

at 4°C the travel time is:

t(4◦C) = ( 7600 × 103 m ) / (1480 m/s) = 5202.7 s

5°C, the travel time is:

t(5◦C) = ( 7600 × 103 m ) / (1484 m/s) = 5188.7 s

one degree C corresponds to a ∆t of 14 s so temperature difference is:

ΔT=1 s/14 s=0.07◦C

How many joules of heat must be transferred to a 410-g aluminum pizza pan to raise its temperature from 32oC to 232oC? The speci

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

recall that heat absorbed released is given by

Q = mc*(T2 - T1)

where

m = mass (in g)

c = specific heat capacity (in J/g-k)

T = temperature (in C or K)

*note: Q is (+) when heat is absorbed and (-) when heat is released.

substituting,

Q = (480)*(0.97)*(234 - 22)

Q = 98707 J = 98.7 kJ

A 0.500 H inductor is connected in series with a 93 Ω resistor and an ac source. The voltage across the inductor is V = −(11.0V)

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

205 V

V $_{R}$ = 2.05 V

Explanation:

L = Inductance in Henries, (H) = 0.500 H

resistor is of 93 Ω so R = 93 Ω

The voltage across the inductor is

$V_{L} = - IwLsin(wt)$

w = 500 rad/s

IwL = 11.0 V

Current:

I = 11.0 V / wL

= 11.0 V / 500 rad/s (0.500 H)

= 11.0 / 250

I = 0.044 A

Now

V $_{R}$ = IR

= (0.044 A) (93 Ω)

V $_{R}$ = 4.092 V

Deriving formula for voltage across the resistor

The derivative of sin is cos

V $_{R}$ = V $_{R}$ cos (wt)

Putting V $_{R}$ = 4.092 V and w = 500 rad/s

V $_{R}$ = V $_{R}$ cos (wt)

= (4.092 V) (cos(500 rad/s )t)

So the voltage across the resistor at 2.09 x 10-3 s is which means

t = 2.09 x 10⁻³

V $_{R}$ = (4.092 V) (cos (500 rads/s)(2.09 x 10⁻³s))

= (4.092 V) (cos (500 rads/s)(0.00209))

= (4.092 V) (cos(1.045))

= (4.092 V)(0.501902)

= 2.053783

V $_{R}$ = 2.05 V

A 392 N wheel comes off a moving truck and rolls without slipping along a highway. At the bottom of a hill it is rotating at 24

alex41 [277]

Answer:

h=12.41m

Explanation:

N=392

r=0.6m

w=24 rad/s

$I=0.8*m*r^{2}$

So the weight of the wheel is the force N divide on the gravity and also can find momentum of inertia to determine the kinetic energy at motion

$N=m*g\\m=\frac{N}{g}\\m=\frac{392N}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}$

$m=40kg$

moment of inertia

$M_{I}=0.8*40.0kg*(0.6m} )^{2}\\M_{I}=11.5 kg*m^{2}$

Kinetic energy of the rotation motion

$K_{r}=\frac{1}{2}*I*W^{2}\\K_{r}=\frac{1}{2}*11.52kg*m^{2}*(24\frac{rad}{s})^{2}\\K_{r}=3317.76J$

Kinetic energy translational

$K_{t}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}\\v=w*r\\v=24rad/s*0.6m=14.4 \frac{m}{s}\\K_{t}=\frac{1}{2}*40kg*(14.4\frac{m}{s})^{2}\\K_{t}=4147.2J$

Total kinetic energy

$K=3317.79J+4147.2J\\K=7464.99J$

Now the work done by the friction is acting at the motion so the kinetic energy and the work of motion give the potential work so there we can find height

$K-W=E_{p}\\7464.99-2600J=m*g*h\\4864.99J=m*g*h\\h=\frac{4864.99J}{m*g}\\h=\frac{4864.99J}{392N}\\h=12.41m$

Complete the following sentence: How much you pay in taxes depends on _________________________.

solong [7]

Answer:

How much you pay in taxes depends on the amount of your taxable income

Explanation:

The total amount expected to be payed as taxes is a factor of the amount of taxable income earned within the given tax period.

The taxable income is found by subtracting the amount of deductions and exemption allowed in the tax year from the gross income. It is also specified as the adjusted gross income

The set marginal tax rate indicates the percentage of the taxable income that is to be paid as taxes, such that there are three different ranges or tax brackets and taxes are paid according to the bracket to which a taxable income belongs.
