Mashcka [7]3 years ago

Explanation:

The amplitude of a wave is equal to the height of a wave. It is the maximum displacement of the wave. The intensity of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of a wave.

The highest point of the wave is called the crest and the lowest point of the wave is called the trough.

The crest of wave is defined as the distance from the base line to the maximum point and the trough of a wave is defined as the distance from the base line to the minimum point.

The correct option is:

crest trough


In fact, the sentence can be completed as follows:

"The amplitude of a wave is the height of a wave as measured from the highest point on the wave crest to the lowest point on the wave trough."

Answer:

Iris

Explanation:

The iris seems to be the illuminated portion of the eyes which really covers the pupil. It controls the amount of light reaching the eye. The lens is indeed a translucent layer of the retina that serves to concentrate light and objects on the lens.

To suck lemonade of density 1040 kg/m3 up a straw to a maximum height of 4.94 cm, what minimum gauge pressure (in atmospheres) m
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The minimum gauge pressure is 0.4969 atm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Density = 1040 kg/m³

Height = 4.94 cm

We need to calculate the pressure

Using formula of pressure

P_{g}=\rho g h

Where, \rho=density

h = height

Put the value into the formula

P_{g}=1040\times9.8\times4.94

P_{g}=50348.48\ Pa

Pressure in atmospheres

1\ atm =101.3\ kPa

P_{g}=\dfrac{50348.48}{101325}

P_{g}=0.4969\ atm

Hence, The minimum gauge pressure is 0.4969 atm.

The magnetic field over a certain range is given by B~ = Bx ˆı + By ˆ, where Bx = 2 T and By = 4 T. An electron moves into the
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The force exerted in a magnetic field is given as

F = q (v × B)

Where

F is the force entered

q is the charge

v is the velocity

B is the magnetic field

Given that,

The magnetic field is

B = 2•i + 4•j. T

The velocity of the electron is

v = 2•i + 6•j + 8•k. m/s

Also, the charge of an electron is

q = -1.602 × 10^-19 C.

Then note that,

V×B is the cross product of the speed and the magnetic field

Then,

F = q (V×B)

F = -1.602 × 10^-19( 2•i + 4•j +8•k × 2•i + 4•j)

Note

i×i=j×j×k×k=0

i×j=k. j×i=-k

j×k=i. k×j=-i

k×i=j. i×k=-j

F = -1.602 × 10^-19[(2•i + 4•j +8•k) × (2•i + 4•j)]

F = -1.602 × 10^-19 [2×2•(i×i) + 2×4•(i×j) + 4×2•(j×i) + 4×4•(j×j) + 8×2•(k×i) + 8×4•(k×j)]

F = -1.602 × 10^-19[4•0 + 8•k + 8•-k + 16•0 + 16•j + 32•-i]

F = -1.602 × 10^-19(0 + 8•k - 8•k + 0 + 16•j - 32•i)

F = -1.602 × 10^-19(16•j - 32•i)

F = -1.602 × 10^-19 × ( -32•i + 16•j)

F = 5.126 × 10^-18 •i - 2.563 × 10^-18 •j

Then, the x component of the force is

Fx = 5.126 × 10^-18 N

Also, the y component of the force is

Fy = -2.563 × 10^-18 N

car is moving at 40 m/s. At 10 meters the driver spots a deer on the road and instantly steps on the brakes. If the car is 400 k
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

32000 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) =?

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 40² + (2 × a × 10)

0 = 1600 + 20a

Collect like terms

0 – 1600 = 20a

–1600 = 20a

Divide both side by –1600

a = –1600 / 20

a = –80 m/s²

The negative sign indicate that the car is decelerating i.e coming to rest.

Finally, we shall determine the force needed to stop the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Acceleration (a) = –80 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 400 × –80

F = – 32000 N

NOTE: The negative sign indicate that the force is in opposite direction to the motion of the car.
