Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

A model is practical representation of reality with help of various tools called model. It is more purposeful, appealing and provide greater understanding of the specific phenomenon called modeling.

Theory on the other hand are set of written statement which is more generalized and aimed to explain the phenomenon. Theory is developed through the process of abstraction, experimentation, and deduction.

A model is often is used to describe an application of a theory for a specific case.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The very high voltage needed to create a spark across the spark plug is produced at the transformer's secondary winding. <span>The secondary coil is engulfed by a powerful and changing magnetic field. This field induces a current in the coils -- a very high-voltage current.</span>

A weight of 30.0 N is suspended from a spring that has a force constant of 220 N/m. The system is undamped and is subjected to a

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

$F_0 = 393 N$

Explanation:

As we know that amplitude of forced oscillation is given as

$A = \frac{F_0}{ m(\omega^2 - \omega_0^2)}$

here we know that natural frequency of the oscillation is given as

$\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$

here mass of the object is given as

$m = \frac{W}{g}$

$\omega_0 = \sqrt{\frac{220}{\frac{30}{9.81}}}$

$\omega_0 = 8.48 rad/s$

angular frequency of applied force is given as

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi(10.5) = 65.97 rad/s$

now we have

$0.03 = \frac{F_0}{3.06(65.97^2 - 8.48^2)}$

$F_0 = 393 N$

What minimum distance should you separate two sources emitting the same waves with wavelength 5mm in phase such that you obtain

Makovka662 [10]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept related to destructive interference (from the principle of superposition). This concept is understood as a superposition of two or more waves of identical or similar frequency that, when interfering, create a new wave pattern of less intensity (amplitude) at a point called a node. Mathematically it can be described as

$d = n \frac{\lambda}{2}$

Where,

d = Path difference

$\lambda$ = wavelength

n = Any integer which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum

In this question the distance between the two source will be minimum for the case of minimum path difference, then n= 1

$d = \frac{\lambda}{2}$

$d = \frac{5*10^{-3}}{2}$

$d = 2.5mm$

Therefore the minimum distance that should you separate two sources emitting the same waves is 2.5mm
