Which statement best describes the common features of sound waves and light waves

Pascal's Principle states that (a) If we apply pressure to a fluid in a sealed container, the pressure will be felt undiminished

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

a) If we apply pressure to a fluid in a sealed container, the pressure will be felt undiminished at every point in the fluid and on the walls of the container.

Explanation:

Pascal´s Principle can be applied in the hydraulic press:

If we apply a small force (F1) on a small area piston A1, then, a pressure (P) is generated that is transmitted equally to all the particles of the liquid until it reaches a larger area piston and therefore a force (F2) can be exerted that is proportional to the area(A2) of the piston.

P=F/A

P1=P2

F1/ A1= F2/ A2

F2= F1* A2/ A1

The pressure acting on one side is transmitted to all the molecules of the liquid because the liquid is incompressible.

In an incompressible liquid, the volume and amount of mass does not vary when pressure is applied.

A thin hoop is hung on a wall, supported by a horizontal nail. The hoop's mass is M=2.0 kg and its radius is R=0.6 m. What is th

boyakko [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the thin hoop

M = 2kg

Radius of the hoop

R = 0.6m

Moment of inertial of a hoop is

I = MR²

I = 2 × 0.6²

I = 0.72 kgm²

Period of a physical pendulum of small amplitude is given by

T = 2π √(I / Mgd)

Where,

T is the period in seconds

I is the moment of inertia in kgm²

I = 0.72 kgm²

M is the mass of the hoop

M = 2kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity

g = 9.8m/s²

d is the distance from rotational axis to center of of gravity

Therefore, d = r = 0.6m

Then, applying the formula

T = 2π √ (I / MgR)

T = 2π √ (0.72 / (2 × 9.8× 0.6)

T = 2π √ ( 0.72 / 11.76)

T = 2π √0.06122

T = 2π × 0.2474

T = 1.5547 seconds

T ≈ 1.55 seconds to 2d•p

Then, the period of oscillation is 1.55seconds

A ball is dropped from rest from the top of a building of height h. At the same instant, a second ball is projected vertically u

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

a) $t = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}$

b) Ball 1 has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height is the same for both balls = 3h/4.

Explanation:

a) We can find the time when the two balls meet by equating the distances as follows:

$y = y_{0_{1}} + v_{0_{1}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Where:

$y_{0_{1}}$ : is the initial height = h

$v_{0_{1}}$ : is the initial speed of ball 1 = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

$y = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (1)

Now, for ball 2 we have:

$y = y_{0_{2}} + v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Where:

$y_{0_{2}}$ : is the initial height of ball 2 = 0

$y = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (2)

By equating equation (1) and (2) we have:

$h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$t=\frac{h}{v_{0_{2}}}$

Where the initial velocity of the ball 2 is:

$v_{f_{2}}^{2} = v_{0_{2}}^{2} - 2gh$

Since $v_{f_{2}}^{2}$ = 0 at the maximum height (h):

$v_{0_{2}} = \sqrt{2gh}$

Hence, the time when they pass each other is:

$t = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2gh}} = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}$

b) When they are passing the speed of each one is:

For ball 1:

$v_{f_{1}} = - gt = -g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = - 0.71\sqrt{gh}$

The minus sign is because ball 1 is going down.

For ball 2:

$v_{f_{2}} = v_{0_{2}} - gt = \sqrt{2gh} - g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = (\sqrt{1} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})*\sqrt{gh} = 0.41\sqrt{gh}$

Therefore, taking the magnitude of ball 1 we can see that it has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height of the ball is:

For ball 1:

$y_{1} = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = h - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h$

For ball 2:

$y_{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = \sqrt{2gh}*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h$

Then, when they are passing the height is the same for both = 3h/4.

I hope it helps you!

What is required to specify the position of an object?(๑•ᴗ•๑)♡

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

To describe the motion of any object, we must be able to describe its position x. It reflects it at any particular time. In other words, we need to specify its position relative to the conventional frame of reference.
