5 0

Answer:

Temperature is also a condition that affects the speed of sound. Heat, like sound, is a form of kinetic energy. Molecules at higher temperatures have more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly.

A lens collects light and focuses it into a small spot. This increases the ________ of the light wave.A lens collects light and

Anika [276]

Answer:

intensity.

Explanation:

when the light collected by the lens is focused into a small spot it tends to increase the intensity of the light.

as different path of light with different intensity combines from passing through the lens it tends to make the light path and intensity coherent and after being coherent there intensity increases.

The Hall effect can be used to calculate the charge-carrier number density in a conductor. A conductor carrying current of 2.0 A

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given,

A conductor is carrying current = 2.0 A is 0.5 mm thick

Hall voltage = 4.5 x 10-6 V

uniform magnetic field = 1.2 T

density of the charge = n =?

hall voltage = $V_h =\dfrac{i\ B}{n\ e\ L}$

$n = \dfrac{i\ B}{V\ e\ L}$

$n = \dfrac{2 \times 1.2 }{4.5 \times 10^{-6}\times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 0.5 \times 10^{-3}}$

n = 6.67 × 10²⁷ charges/m

hence the correct answer is option D

Determine the CM of a rod assuming its linear mass density λ (its mass per unit length) varies linearly from λ = λ0 at the left

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

$x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L$

$I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3$

Explanation:

Here mass density of rod is varying so we have to use the concept of integration to find mass and location of center of mass.

At any distance x from point A mass density

$\lambda =\lambda_0+ \dfrac{2\lambda _o-\lambda _o}{L}x$

$\lambda =\lambda_0+ \dfrac{\lambda _o}{L}x$

Lets take element mass at distance x

dm =λ dx

mass moment of inertia

$dI=\lambda x^2dx$

So total moment of inertia

$I=\int_{0}^{L}\lambda x^2dx$

By putting the values

$I=\int_{0}^{L}\lambda_ ox+ \dfrac{\lambda _o}{L}x^3 dx$

By integrating above we can find that

$I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3$

Now to find location of center mass

$x_c = \dfrac{\int xdm}{dm}$

$x_c = \dfrac{\int_{0}^{L} \lambda_ 0(1+\dfrac{x}{L})xdx}{\int_{0}^{L} \lambda_0(1+\dfrac{x}{L})}$

Now by integrating the above

$x_c=\dfrac{\dfrac{L^2}{2}+\dfrac{L^3}{3L}}{L+\dfrac{L^2}{2L}}$

$x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L$

So mass moment of inertia $I=\dfrac {7}{12}\lambda_ 0 L^3$ and location of center of mass $x_c= \dfrac{5}{9}L$

What is the component in a car engine that would detect the need for air?

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Control of air–fuel ratio

Oxygen sensors tell the ECU whether the engine is running rich (too much fuel or too little oxygen) or running lean (too much oxygen or too little fuel) as compared to ideal conditions (known as stoichiometric).
