A wave will "break" because the bottom interferes with its oscillatory motion. Breaking of waves may occur anywhere that the amplitude is sufficient, including in mid-ocean. When waves enter shallow water they break because the motion of water in lower part of the wave nearest the bottom is slowed by friction so that their oscillation is faster than its supporting portion at the bottom. Thus, the wave collapses forward and breaks.

Which statement best describes the difference between a substance with a pH of 3.0 and a substance with a pH of 6.0?
satela [25.4K]

The statement best describes the difference between a substance with a pH of 3.0 and a substance with a pH of 6.0 is - The substance with the lower pH has 1,000 times as many hydrogen ions per volume of water.

pH is the scale or measure for the substance about its acidic or basic strength. It ranges from 0 to 6.9 which is acidic and 7.1 to 14 which is basic.

Acidic substance has high concentration of Hydrogen ions whereas, basic substance has low concentration of hydrogen ions, however for the OH⁻ ions it is reverse.

  • Concentration of hydrogen ions is inversely related to its pH
  • More hydrogen ions present, the lower the pH
  • The fewer hydrogen ions, the higher the pH We know,

pH = -log(H^{+}) then,  

=> 3 = -log (H^{+})

=> H^{+} =  (for pH = 3)  

=> pH = -log(H^{+})

=> 6 = -log (H^{+})

=> H^{+} = 10^{-6} (for pH = 6)

 Thus, The substance with the lower pH (3) has 1000 times as many hydrogen ions per volume of water.

A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Incomplete question as the unit of volume is not written correctly.So the complete question is here:

A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it in a graduated cylinder. What is the density of a 240-g rock that displaces 89.0 cm³?

Answer:

d_{Density}=2.7g/cm^{3}

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=240g

Volume V=89.0 cm³

To find

Density d

Solution

If rock displaces 89.0 cm³ of water means volume of rock is also 89cm³

So

d_{Density}=\frac{mass}{volume}\\d_{Density}=\frac{240g}{89.0cm^{3} } \\d_{Density}=2.7g/cm^{3}

Which term describes the number of joules used per second by a circuit?
jasenka [17]

Answer:

B) Power

Explanation:

The power is defined by the following equation:

P = W / t

where:

W = work = Force * Distance = [Newton] * [meter]

t = time = seconds

The units for work are give en Newton per second, which is equal to Joules

And for power the unit used commonly is Watts, therefore:

Watts = (Joule/second)

A short current element dl⃗ = (0.500 mm)j^ carries a current of 5.40 A in the same direction as dl⃗ . Point P is located at r⃗ =
SashulF [63]

Answer:

The magnetic field along x axis is

B_{x}=1.670\times10^{-10}\ T

The magnetic field along y axis is zero.

The magnetic field along z axis is

B_{z}=3.484\times10^{-10}\ T

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the current element dl=(0.5\times10^{-3})j

Current in y direction = 5.40 A

Point P located at \vec{r}=(-0.730)i+(0.390)k

The distance is

|\vec{r}|=\sqrt{(0.730)^2+(0.390)^2}

|\vec{r}|=0.827\ m

We need to calculate the magnetic field

Using Biot-savart law

B=\dfrac{\mu_{0}}{4\pi}\timesI\times\dfrac{\vec{dl}\times\vec{r}}{|\vec{r}|^3}

Put the value into the formula

B=10^{-7}\times5.40\times\dfrac{(0.5\times10^{-3})\times(-0.730)i+(0.390)k}{(0.827)^3}

We need to calculate the value of \vec{dl}\times\vec{r}

\vec{dl}\times\vec{r}=(0.5\times10^{-3})\times(-0.730)i+(0.390)k

\vec{dl}\times\vec{r}=i(0.350\times0.5\times10^{-3}-0)+k(0+0.730\times0.5\times10^{-3})

\vec{dl}\times\vec{r}=0.000175i+0.000365k

Put the value into the formula of magnetic field

B=10^{-7}\times5.40\times\dfrac{(0.000175i+0.000365k)}{(0.827)^3}

B=1.670\times10^{-10}i+3.484\times10^{-10}k

Hence, The magnetic field along x axis is

B_{x}=1.670\times10^{-10}\ T

The magnetic field along y axis is zero.

The magnetic field along z axis is

B_{z}=3.484\times10^{-10}\ T
