Answer:
The boundaries cause the waves to change direction an effect called <u>refraction.</u>
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.
Answer:
For a given spring the extension is directly proportional to the force applied For example if the force is doubled, the extension doubles When an elastic object is stretched beyond its limit of proportionality the object does not return to its original length when the force is removed
Explanation:
Answer:
a ) 1.267 radian
b ) 1.084 10⁻³ mm
Explanation:
Distance of screen D = 1.65 m
Width of slit d = ?
Wave length of light λ = 687 nm.
Distance of second minimum fro centre y = 2.09 cm
Angle of diffraction = y / D
= 2.09 /1.65
= 1.267. radian
Angle of diffraction of second minimum
= 2 λ / d
so 2 λ / d = 1.267
d = 2 λ / 1.267 = (2 x 687 ) /1.267 nm
=1084.45 nm = 1.084 x 10⁻³ mm.
Answer:
T = 188.5 s, correct is C
Explanation:
This problem must be worked on using conservation of angular momentum. We define the system as formed by the fan and the paper, as the system is isolated, the moment is conserved
initial instant. Before the crash
L₀ = r m v₀ + I₀ w₀
the angular speed of the fan is zero w₀ = 0
final instant. After the crash
L_f = I₀ w + m r v
L₀ = L_f
m r v₀ = I₀ w + m r v
angular and linear velocity are related
v = r w
w = v / r
m r v₀ = I₀ v / r + m r v
m r v₀ = (I₀ / r + mr) v
v =
let's calculate
v =
v =
v = 0.02 m / s
To calculate the time of a complete revolution we can use the kinematics relations of uniform motion
v = x / T
T = x / v
the distance of a circle with radius r = 0.6 m
x = 2π r
we substitute
T = 2π r / v
let's calculate
T = 2π 0.6/0.02
T = 188.5 s
reduce
t = 188.5 s ( 1 min/60 s) = 3.13 min
correct is C
Answer:
a1 = 3.56 m/s²
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass of book on horizontal surface; m1 = 3 kg
Mass of hanging book; m2 = 4 kg
Diameter of pulley; D = 0.15 m
Radius of pulley; r = D/2 = 0.15/2 = 0.075 m
Change in displacement; Δx = Δy = 1 m
Time; t = 0.75
I've drawn a free body diagram to depict this question.
Since we want to find the tension of the cord on 3.00 kg book, it means we are looking for T1 as depicted in the FBD attached. T1 is calculated from taking moments about the x-axis to give;
ΣF_x = T1 = m1 × a1
a1 is acceleration and can be calculated from Newton's 2nd equation of motion.
s = ut + ½at²
our s is now Δx and a1 is a.
Thus;
Δx = ut + ½a1(t²)
u is initial velocity and equal to zero because the 3 kg book was at rest initially.
Thus, plugging in the relevant values;
1 = 0 + ½a1(0.75²)
Multiply through by 2;
2 = 0.75²a1
a1 = 2/0.75²
a1 = 3.56 m/s²
