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."

A spring is 6.0cm long when it is not stretched, and 10cm long when a 7.0N force is applied. What force is needed to make it 20c
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Approximately 25\; {\rm N} (assuming that this spring is ideal.)

Explanation:

The displacement of a spring is the new length of the spring relative to the original length.

For example:

  • When the 6.0\; {\rm cm}-spring in this question is stretched to 10\; {\rm cm}, the displacement is x = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}).
  • Likewise, if this spring is stretched to 20\; {\rm cm}, the displacement would be (20\; {\rm cm} - 6\; {\rm cm}).

If this spring is ideal, the force on the spring would be proportional to the displacement of the spring. In other words, if a force of F_{\text{a}} displaces this spring by x_{\text{a}}, while a force of F_{\text{b}} displaces this spring by x_{\text{b}}, then:

\displaystyle \frac{F_{\text{a}}}{x_{\text{a}}} = \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{x_{\text{b}}}.

In this question, it is given that a force of F_{\text{a}} = 7.0 \; {\rm N} would stretch this spring by x_{\text{a}} = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}). Thus, the force F_{\text{b}} required to stretch this spring by x_{\text{a}} = (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) would satisfy:

\displaystyle \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}= \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}.

Rearrange and solve for F_{\text{b}}:

\begin{aligned} F_{\text{b}} &= \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}} \, (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) \\ &\approx 25\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}.

A particle with charge 3.01 µC on the negative x axis and a second particle with charge 6.02 µC on the positive x axis are each
ra1l [238]

Answer:

The third particle should be at 0.0743 m from the origin on the negative x-axis.

Explanation:

Let's assume that the third charge is on the negative x-axis. So we have:

E_{1}+E_{3}-E_{2}=0

We know that the electric field is:

E=k\frac{q}{r^{2}}

Where:

  • k is the Coulomb constant
  • q is the charge
  • r is the distance from the charge to the point

So, we have:

k\frac{q_{1}}{r_{1}^{2}}+k\frac{q_{3}}{r_{3}^{2}}-k\frac{q_{2}}{r_{2}^{2}}=0

Let's solve it for r(3).

\frac{3.01}{0.0429^{2}}+\frac{9.03}{r_{3}^{2}}-\frac{6.02}{0.0429^{2}}=0

r_{3}=0.0743\:  

Therefore, the third particle should be at 0.0743 m from the origin on the negative x-axis.

I hope it helps you!

By considering action-reacton forces,identify why water rises up a thin capillary tube
netineya [11]

The forces of attraction between water molecules and the glass walls and within the molecules of water themselves are what enable the water to rise in a thin tube immersed in water.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

Surface or interfacial forces lead to capillarity. The forces of attraction between the water molecules and the glass walls and among the water molecules themselves are what causes the water in a thin tube submerged in water to rise.

Hence, the water rises up a thin capillary tube can be explained by Newton's third law.

To learn more about the force refer to the link;
