How do I measure the wavelength/amplitude ​

Physics
2 answers:
Dimas [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The wavelength can always be determined by measuring the distance between any two corresponding points on adjacent waves. In the case of a longitudinal wave, a wavelength measurement is made by measuring the distance from a compression to the next compression or from a rarefaction to the next rarefaction.

Answer:

Explanation:

So what you want to do is measure the wavelength for the wavelength by putting the ruler under or above the distance (show in picture).

amplitude you want to measure it inside of the wave. so when measuring move the ruler sideways.

( i hope this makes sense)

the deepest point in the sea is 100m below sea level .what arr the water pressure at this depth and the total pressure due to wa
fomenos

The water pressure at this depth and the total pressure due to water and atmosphere are  10.3 x 10⁵ Pa and 11.31× 10⁵ Pa.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The pressure is the amount of force applied per unit area.

Atmospheric pressure, Patm =1.01×10⁵ Pa

Density of water, ρ=1030 kg/m³

Depth, h=100 m

Pressure =ρgh

P = 1030×10×100

P = 10.3 x 10⁵ Pa.

Total pressure, P=Po +ρgh

P=1.01×10⁵ + 1030×10×100

P=11.31× 10⁵ Pa

Hence, total pressure is 11.31× 10⁵ Pa.

What is your mass in kilograms?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Take whatever you weigh in pounds and divide by 2.205.

Explanation:

Because weight is a measure of the force you exert on the earth, with some simple manipulation of Newton's second law we can get your mass in kilograms. 2.205 is just a nice constant that does that for you, but the more in-depth version is that

F = ma

The equation for weight is thus

W = mg, where W is your weight in pounds, m is your mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.80 m/s^2)

Thus, your mass in kilograms is m = W / g.

On a cold winter day, a penny (mass 2.50 g) and a nickel (mass 5.00 g) are lying on the smooth (frictionless) surface of a froze
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

0.78333 m/s in the opposite direction

1.566 m/s in the same direction

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of penny = 0.0025 kg

m_2 = Mass of nickel = 0.005 kg

u_1 = Initial Velocity of penny = 2.35 m/s

u_2 = Initial Velocity of nickel = 0 m/s

v_1 = Final Velocity of penny

v_2 = Final Velocity of nickel

As momentum and Energy is conserved

m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}

{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{1}u_{1}^{2}+{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{2}u_{2}^{2}={\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}+{\tfrac {1}{2}}m_{2}v_{2}^{2}

From the two equations we get

v_{1}=\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_1=\frac{0.0025-0.005}{0.0025+0.005}\times 2.35+\frac{2\times 0.5}{0.4005+0.5}\times 0\\\Rightarrow v_1=-0.78333\ m/s

The final velocity of the penny is 0.78333 m/s in the opposite direction

v_{2}=\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_{1}+\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\\Rightarrow v_2=\frac{2\times 0.0025}{0.0025+0.005}\times 2.35+\frac{0.005-0.0025}{0.005+0.0025}\times 0\\\Rightarrow v_2=1.566\ m/s

The final velocity of the nickel is 1.566 m/s in the same direction

The sum of the charges on both plates of a capacitor is zero. What does a capacitor store?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Current is the overall flow of electrons through a conductor and can be defined as the speed of the flow of electrons. Resistance is defined as the opposition to current flow. Circuits must have resistance  to convert electrical energy into light, heat, or motion. Resistance is called the directional movement of electrons that form an electric current. It is also known that  electrons do not move freely in the crystal structure of a conductor. Resistance is the inherent opposition to the flow of electrons present in a conductor. Inductance is the property of any circuit to resist any change in current while capacitance is the property of the circuit to resist any change in voltage.

<h3>What is capacitor?</h3>

A capacitor is an electronic component that stores an electrical charge. Capacitors consist of two close conductors (usually plates) separated by a dielectric material. The plates accumulate an electrical charge when connected to a power source. The main purpose of a capacitor is to store electrostatic energy in an electric field and, if possible, to supply this energy to an electrical circuit.

To avoid dangerous circuit failure, they allow alternating current to flow but block direct current. Capacitors are widely used as circuit elements in many common electrical devices. Commercial capacitors are made of interwoven metal foils with paraffin or Mylar-impregnated paper as the dielectric.

STOP TO THINK 17.1 Two pulses on a string approach each other at speeds of 1 m/s. What is the shape of the string at t = 6 s?
Vinvika [58]

'The principle of superposition states that when two disturbance occupy the same space at the same time the resulting disturbance is the sum of two disturbances.'

Explanation:

if two pulses are moving towards each other in the same medium and are not disturb by any external force they will approach each other and the point which will be the the sum of their individual displacement or more precisely the point of superposition of both pulses either constructive or destructive depending on the conditions given
