Answer:

Yes, true

Explanation:

In a wave, especially in longitudinal waves, the particles move in the same direction as the wave is moving which means they are parallel.

In sound waves, the particles move in the same direction as the wave is moving, so you wouldn't be able to see them like ripples in the air, instead they make areas in the air where the particles are more squished together, and areas where the particles are further apart.

Marine science- question- what is climate change?

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Defined below

Explanation:

Climate change is simply the long term change in the average weather patterns that are associated with the local, regional and global climates of the earth. Climate change is usually driven by human activities like burning of fossils; natural processes like cyclic ocean patterns; external factors like volcanic eruptions.

A spherical capacitor contains a charge of 3.00 nC when connected to a potential difference of 230 V. If its plates are separate

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Part(a): the capacitance is 0.013 nF.

Part(b): the radius of the inner sphere is 3.1 cm.

Part(c): the electric field just outside the surface of inner sphere is $\bf{2.81 \times 10^{4}~n~C^{-1}}$ .

Explanation:

We know that if 'a' and 'b' are the inner and outer radii of the shell respectively, 'Q' is the total charge contains by the capacitor subjected to a potential difference of 'V' and ' $\epsilon_{0}$ ' be the permittivity of free space, then the capacitance (C) of the spherical shell can be written as

$C = \dfrac{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}}{(\dfrac{1}{a} - \dfrac{1}{b})}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)$

Part(a):

Given, charge contained by the capacitor Q = 3.00 nC and potential to which it is subjected to is V = 230V.

So the capacitance (C) of the shell is

$C &=& \dfrac{Q}{V} = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-90}~C}{230~V} = 1.3 \times 10^{-11}~F = 0.013~nF$

Part(b):

Given the inner radius of the outer shell b = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m. Therefore, from equation (1), rearranging the terms,

$&& \dfrac{1}{a} = \dfrac{1}{b} + \dfrac{1}{C/4 \pi \epsilon_{0}} = \dfrac{1}{0.043} + \dfrac{1}{1.3 \times 10^{-11} \times 9 \times 10^{9}} = 31.79\\&or,& a = \dfrac{1}{31.79}~m = 0.031~m = 3.1~cm$

Part(c):

If we apply Gauss' law of electrostatics, then

$&& E~4 \pi a^{2} = \dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_{0}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{Q}{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}a^{2}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-9} \times 9 \times 10^{9}}{0.031^{2}}~N~C^{-1}\\&or,& E = 2.81 \times 10^{4}~N~C^{-1}$

How can an animal regeneration produce two results?

GenaCL600 [577]

In biology, regeneration refers to the process by which plants and animals replace lost or damaged parts by growing them anew. Some animals can regenerate their limbs, tails, or even parts of internal organs, such as the liver. In plant regeneration, neighboring cells replace missing tissue.

A runner accelerated to 4 m/s^2 for 20 seconds before winning the race.How far did he/she run?

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

s=800 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of a runner, a = 4 m/s²

Time, t = 20 seconds

We need to find the distance covered by her. Initially, she was at rest. It means its initial velocity is equal to 0. So, using second equation of motion as follows :

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Herre, u = 0

$s=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times (20)^2\\\\s=800\ m$

So, she will cover a distance of 800 m.
