The speed of light is determined by the medium (material) through which the light is travelling. Light travels faster in a vacuum than it does in any other medium. Light changes speed as it passes from one medium to another. This is called refraction.

Your high-fidelity amplifier has one output for a speaker of resistance 8 Ω. How can you arrange two 8-Ω speakers, one 4-Ω speak
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

(a) 8Ω (b)  Ratio = Parra/P8 ohm = 1

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

An high-fidelity amplifier has one output for a speaker of resistance of = 8 Ω

Now,

(a) How can  two 8-Ω speakers be  arranged, when one =  4-Ω speaker, and one =12-Ω speaker

The Upper arm is : 8 ohm, 8 ohm

The Lower arm is : 12 ohm, 4 ohm

The Requirement is  = (16 x 16)/(16 + 16) = 8 ohm

(b) compare  your arrangement  power output of with the power output of a single 8-Ω speaker

The Ratio = Parra/P8 ohm = 1

Represent 7468 N with SI units having an appropriate prefix. Express your answer to four significant figures and include the app
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

7.468 kN

Explanation:

Here the force is given in Newton

Some of the prefixes of the SI units are

kilo = 10³

Mega = 10⁶

Giga = 10⁹

Tera = 10¹²

The number is 7468.0

Here, the only solution where the number of significant figures is kilo. If any other prefix is chosen then the significant figures will increase.

1 kilonewton = 1000 Newton

1\ Newton=\frac{1}{1000}\ kilonewton

\\\Rightarrow 7468\ Newton=\frac{7468}{1000}\ kilonewton\\ =7.468\ kilonewton

So, 7468 N = 7.468 kN

. A ball is thrown downward at a speed of 20 m/s. Choosing
a_sh-v [17]

The final velocity is v = 20 - gt

The distance traveled by the ball at time t is y = y_o + (-20)t - \frac{1}{2} gt^2

The maximum distance traveled by the object is 0 = (20)^2 - 2g(y-y_0)

The given parameters;

initial velocity of the ball, u = 20 m/s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The final velocity can be calculate as;

v = 20 - gt

The distance traveled by the ball at time t;

y = y_o + (-20)t - \frac{1}{2} gt^2

The maximum distance traveled by the object is calculated as;

v^2 = u^2 - 2g(y - y_0)\\\\0 = (20)^2 - 2g(y-y_0)
