Displacement can be positive OR negative. The sign implies the direction of the displacement. Negative means that is is moving to the left (sometimes called West) or down (sometimes called South); positive means that is moving to the right (sometimes called East) or up (sometimes called North).

Answer:

1. Displacement can be positive OR negative. The sign implies the direction of the displacement. 2. In one dimension the direction is indicated by the sign: negative if to the left and positive if to the right.

A 1.0-m-tall vertical tube is filled with 20°C water. A tuning fork vibrating at 580 Hz is held just over the top of the tube as
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

water heights of the tube are 0.851 m  , 0.553 m, 0.255 m

Explanation:

given data

frequency = 580 Hz

temperature = 20°C

tube = 1 m

to find out

water heights of the tube

solution

we will apply here formula for length that is

length L = v ( 2n -1 ) / 4f

here v is velocity o sound that is 343.2 m/s

so for n = 1

L = 343.2 ( 2(1) -1 ) / 4(580) = 0.147931 m

for n = 2

L = 343.2 ( 2(2) -1 ) / 4(580) = 0.443793 m

for n = 3

L = 343.2 ( 2(3) -1 ) / 4(580) = 0.739655 m

for n = 4

L = 343.2 ( 2(4) -1 ) / 4(580) = 1.035517 m is greater than 1

and so here  height is measured less than 1 m

so water heights of the tube are 1 m - 0.147931 m  , 1 m - 0.443793 m, 1 m - 0.739655 m

so water heights of the tube are 0.851 m  , 0.553 m, 0.255 m

Estimate and determine the order of magnitude of the circumference of the Earth in miles and the speed of a sailboat in miles pe
solmaris [256]

Answer:

= 1000 hours

Explanation:

Earth's circumference is 10⁴ mile

speed of a sailboat is 10¹ mile/hour

distance = speed × time

10⁴ = 10¹  × t

t = 10⁴ / 10¹

t = 10³

= 1000 hours

What is the distance between lines on a diffraction grating that produces a second-order maximum for 760-nm red light at an angl
Nataly [62]
The condition for maximum intensity is the same as that for a double slit. However, angular separation of the maxima is generally much greater because the slit spacing is so small for a diffraction grating. For a diffraction grating with lines/mm = lines/inch, the slit separation is d = micrometers = x10^ m.
