All waves change speed when they enter a new medium, but they don't always bend. When does bending occur?

Anastaziya [24]

Bending occurs when one side of the wave enters the new medium before the other side of the wave. ... The bending occurs because the two sides of the wave are traveling at different speeds.

The fluid pressure 10 ft underwater is _____ the fluid pressure 5 ft underwater. A.less than or greater than, depending on what

just olya [345]

<span>I would say greater than because as you do deeper, the pressure strengthens. If you were in a 10 ft deep pool and you dive all the way to the bottom, the ears usually pop. That's because of the pressure. Whereas if you were to go five feet, your ears wouldn't. It depends on the age of the person. Hope this helps.</span>

A man standing 1.54 m in front of a shaving mirror produces a real, inverted image 15.2 cm from it. What is the focal length of

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The focal length is 16.86 cm and the distance of the man if he wants to form an upright image of his chin that is twice the chin's actual size is 8.43 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Object distance u=1.54 m =154 cm

Image distance v = 15.2 cm

Magnification = 2

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of mirror

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{15.2}+\dfrac{1}{-154}$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{347}{5852}$

$f=16.86\ cm$

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of magnification

$m= \dfrac{-v}{u}$

Put the value into the formula

$2=\dfrac{v}{u}$

$v = -2u$

Using formula of for focal length

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}$

$\dfrac{1}{16.86}=\dfrac{1}{u}-\dfrac{1}{2u}$

$\dfrac{1}{16.86}=\dfrac{1}{2u}$

$2u=16.86$

$u=\dfrac{16.86}{2}$

$u=8.43\ cm$

Hence, The focal length is 16.86 cm and the distance of the man if he wants to form an upright image of his chin that is twice the chin's actual size is 8.43 cm.

The driver accelerates a 330.0 kg snowmobile, which results in a force being exerted that speeds up the snowmobile from 6.00 m/s

just olya [345]

Answer:

(a) 5610 kgm/s

(b) 5610 Ns.

(c) 78. 64 N

Explanation:

a. Change in momentum: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body to its change in velocity. The S.I unit of change in momentum is kgm/s.

Mathematically, change in momentum is expressed as

ΔM = mΔv......................... Equation 1

Where ΔM = change in momentum, m = mass of snowmobile, Δv = change in velocity.

Given: m = 330 kg, Δv = v₂-v₁ = 23-6 = 17 m/s.

Note: v₁ and v₂ are the initial and the final velocity of the snowmobile.

ΔM = 330(17)

ΔM = 5610 kgm/s.

(b) Impulse: This can be defined as the product and force and time. The S.I unit of impulse is Ns.

Note: From Newton's second law of motion, impulse is equal to change in momentum.

Therefore,

I = ΔM................ Equation 2

Where I = impulse of the force.

Since ΔM = 5610 kgm/s.

Therefore

I = 5610 Ns.

Thus the impulse = 5610 Ns.

(c) Force: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N).

F = ma ................................. Equation 3

F = force, m = mass of the body, a = acceleration

But,

a = ( v₂-v₁)/t

Where v₂ = 23.0 m/s, v₁ = 6.0 m/s t = 60.0 s.

a = (23-6)/60

a = 0.283 m/s².

Substituting the value a and m into equation 3

F = 330(0.2383)

F = 78.639 N.

F ≈ 78. 64 N
