Which direction do longitudinal waves travel?

Physics
1 answer:
docker41 [41]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

If the particles of the medium vibrate in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave, it is called a longitudinal wave. In longitudinal waves, the particle movement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation.

A +71 nC charge is positioned 1.9 m from a +42 nC charge. What is the magnitude of the electric field at the midpoint of these c
viva [34]

Answer:

The net Electric field at the mid point is 289.19 N/C

Given:

Q = + 71 nC = 71\times 10^{- 9} C

Q' = + 42 nC = 42\times 10^{- 9} C

Separation distance, d = 1.9 m

Solution:

To find the magnitude of electric field at the mid point,

Electric field at the mid-point due to charge Q is given by:

\vec{E} = \frac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}(\frac{d}{2})^{2}}

\vec{E} = \frac{71\times 10^{- 9}}{4\pi\8.85\times 10^{- 12}(\frac{1.9}{2})^{2}}

\vec{E} = 708.03 N/C

Now,

Electric field at the mid-point due to charge Q' is given by:

\vec{E'} = \frac{Q'}{4\pi\epsilon_{o}(\frac{d}{2})^{2}}

\vec{E'} = \frac{42\times 10^{- 9}}{4\pi\8.85\times 10^{- 12}(\frac{1.9}{2})^{2}}

\vec{E'} = 418.84 N/C

Now,

The net Electric field is given by:

\vec{E_{net}} = \vec{E} - \vec{E'}

\vec{E_{net}} = 708.03 - 418.84 = 289.19 N/C

wheel rotates from rest with constant angular acceleration. Part A If it rotates through 8.00 revolutions in the first 2.50 s, h
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

x2 = 64 revolutions.

it rotate through 64 revolutions in the next 5.00 s

Explanation:

Given;

wheel rotates from rest with constant angular acceleration.

Initial angular speed v = 0

Time t = 2.50

Distance x = 8 rev

Applying equation of motion;

x = vt +0.5at^2 ........1

Since v = 0

x = 0.5at^2

making a the subject of formula;

a = x/0.5t^2 = 2x/t^2

a = angular acceleration

t = time taken

x = angular distance

Substituting the values;

a = 2(8)/2.5^2

a = 2.56 rev/s^2

velocity at t = 2.50

v1 = a×t = 2.56×2.50 = 6.4 rev/s

Through the next 5 second;

t2 = 5 seconds

a2 = 2.56 rev/s^2

v2 = 6.4 rev/s

From equation 1;

x = vt +0.5at^2

Substituting the values;

x2 = 6.4(5) + 0.5×2.56×5^2

x2 = 64 revolutions.

it rotate through 64 revolutions in the next 5.00 s

Light travels at the speed of approximately 3.0 × 108 meters per second. Find the time in minutes required for light to travel f
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

  t = 8.33 minutes

Explanation:

given,

Speed of Light, v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

distance between sun to Earth = 1.5 x 10¹¹ m

time taken to reach earth = ?

we know,

Distance = speed x time

t = \dfrac{d}{s}

t = \dfrac{1.5\times 10^{11}}{3\times 10^8}

      t = 500 s

1 min = 60 s

now, t = \dfrac{500}{60}\ minutes

          t = 8.33 minutes

time taken by the light to reach earth is equal to 8.33 minutes.

1. A car accelerates uniformly from 12 m/s to 39 m/s in 12 seconds. What is the car's average acceleration
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

(1) 2.25m/s^2

(2) 45.6m

Explanation:

(1) A car accelerates uniformly from 12m/s to 39m/s in 12 seconds

Therefore the average acceleration can be calculated as follows

a = 39-12/12

a = 27/12

a= 2.25m/s^2

(2) A butterfly is flying at 4m/s , it accelerates uniformly at 1.2 m/s for 6 seconds

u= 4

a= 1.2

t= 6

Therefore the distance can be calculated as follows

S= ut + 1/2at^2

= 4×6 + 1/2 × 1.2 × 6^2

= 24 + 1/2 × 1.2 × 36

= 24 + 1/2 × 43.2

= 24 + 21.6

S = 45.6m

Hence the butterfly travels at 45.6m
