Answer:

E. Both are mechanical waves

Explanation:

The correct answer is E. Both are mechanical waves

As we know that sounds waves are longitudinal waves in which medium particles will oscillates parallel to the wave propagation.

While in ocean the waves are of both nature i.e. transverse and longitudinal both. Here the energy is transferred to all molecules inside the water by transverse nature of wave while in the case of surface the energy is transferred by longitudinal waves.

So here we can say that common thing between them is that both type of waves required medium particles to propagate energy through the medium.So all those waves which required medium particles to propagate energy then it is known as mechanical waves

So here correct answer will be

When light is directed on a metal surface, the kinetic energies of the photoelectrons a) are random b) vary with the frequency o

jekas [21]

Answer:

b) vary with the frequency of the light

Explanation:

The phone electric effect can be expressed as

K.E=(hv -W•)

Where K.E is the Kinectic energy

W• = work function of the metal

ν =frequency of the radiation

h = Planck's constat

Then, we can see that K.E is proportional linearly to "v" in the equation above.

Therefore, When light is directed on a metal surface, the kinetic energies of the photoelectrons vary with the frequency of the light

Two identical resistors connected in series have an equivalent resistance of 4 ohms. The same two resistors, when connected in p

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1 ohm

Explanation:

since there are two identical resistors, one resistor will be

R = $\frac{4}{2}$ =2ohm [ proven as in series $R_{e} = 2 + 2 = 4ohm$ ]

to calculate the equivalent resistance when in parallel:

$\frac{1}{R_{e} } = \frac{1}{R_{1} } + \frac{1}{R_{2}}$

so,

$\frac{1}{R_{e} } = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}$

$R_{e} = 1ohm$

A hot air balloon is on the ground, 200 feet from an observer. The pilot decides to ascend at 100 ft/min. How fast is the angle

liq [111]

Answer:

0.0031792338 rad/s

Explanation:

$\theta$ = Angle of elevation

y = Height of balloon

Using trigonometry

$tan\theta=y\dfrac{y}{200}\\\Rightarrow y=200tan\theta$

Differentiating with respect to t we get

$\dfrac{dy}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}200tan\theta\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dy}{dt}=200sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}\\\Rightarrow 100=200sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{100}{200sec^2\theta}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{2}cos^2\theta$

Now, with the base at 200 ft and height at 2500 ft

The hypotenuse is

$h=\sqrt{200^2+2500^2}\\\Rightarrow h=2507.98\ ft$

Now y = 2500 ft

$cos\theta=\dfrac{200}{h}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\dfrac{200}{2507.98}=0.07974$

$\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.07974^2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=0.0031792338\ rad/s$

The angle is changing at 0.0031792338 rad/s
