True or false the refraction of a wave is how many wavelengths pass a fixed point each second

No.  That's the description of the wave's 'frequency'.

Refraction of a wave is its behavior when it crosses
the boundary between two different media.

Hello,Plz Help Which conditions are necessary for rain to form?
dimulka [17.4K]
Vas happenin!
The third one makes no since because the clouds carry the rain. It isn’t always cold when it’s going to rain

The fourth one is a good one

The second one again it’s not always cold when it’s raining

The first one could be it also

Hmmm I would go with the last one

Sorry if it’s wrong

Two capacitors, a 15 micro F and a 25 micro F, are connected in parallel to a 60 Hz source. The total capacitive reactance is :_
Stells [14]

Answer:

<em> 3980.89 ohms</em>

Explanation:

The capacitive reactance is expressed as;

X_c = \frac{1}{2 \pi fC}

f is the frequency

C is the capacitance of the capacitor

Given

f = 60H

C = C1+C2 (parallel connection)

C = 15μF + 25μF

C = 40μF

C = 40 * 10^{-6}F

Substitute into the formula:

X_c = \frac{1}{2(3.14)*60*40*10^{-6}}\\X_c =  \frac{1}{0.0002512}\\X_c = 3,980.89

<em>Hence the  total capacitive reactance is 3980.89 ohms</em>

A helicopter flies with an air speed of 175 km/h, heading south. The wind is blowing at 85 km/h to the east relative to the grou
spayn [35]

Answer:

154° at 195 km/h

Explanation:

The helicopter is moving south at 175 km/h, relative to the wind.

But the wind is moving east at 85 km/h, relative to the ground.

This means that the helicopter is moving south east relative to the ground.

Every hour, the helicopter will move 175 km to the south and 85 km to the east, relative to the ground.

This means that we can determine the speed and direction of the helicopter using a right triangle and simple trigonometry.

Refer to the triangle b1.

The distance traveled by the helicopter in 1 hour is denoted by d.

d is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can calculate d to be 195 km (rounded to 3 s. f.)

Hence the helicopter is traveling at 195 km/h relative to the ground.

To calculate the direction we use,

tan (x) = opposite/adjacent = 85/175

So the angle x is,

x = arctan (\frac{85}{175} ) = 25.9°

Relative to the North, the helicopter is moving at 180° - 25.9° = 154° (rounded to 3 s. f.)
