irakobra [83]

Answer:

C. Sunlight to electricity

Explanation:

Photo voltaic cells covert sunlight to the electricity. It absorbs the light from the sun and use that sunlight to create electric current. The number of photo voltaic cells are connected together in a solar panel to generate enough electricity to power up a home.

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. A listener in front of both speakers hears a maximum sound intensity when sp

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer

given,

difference between the two consecutive maximum

λ = 0.870 - 0.540

λ = 0.33 m

speed of sound = 340 m/s

b) frequency of the sound

v = f x λ

340 = f x 0.33

$f =\dfrac{340}{0.33}$

f = 1030.3 Hz

a) phase difference

the expression of phase difference is given by

$\phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}\ \delta$

$\delta = \Delta x - \lambda$

$\delta = 0.540 - 0.33$

$\delta = 0.21\ m$

now,

$\phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}\ \times 0.21$

$\phi = \dfrac{2\pi}{0.33}\ \times 0.21$

$\phi = 3.99 rad$

The earth travels around the sun once a year in an approximately circular orbit whose radius is 1.50x10^11 m. From this data det

seraphim [82]

(a) Determine the circumference of the Earth through the equation,
C = 2πr
Substituting the known values,
C = 2π(1.50 x 10¹¹ m)
C = 9.424 x 10¹¹ m

Then, divide the answer by time which is given to a year which is equal to 31536000 s.
orbital speed = (9.424 x 10¹¹ m)/31536000 s

orbital speed = 29883.307 m/s

Hence, the orbital speed of the Earth is ~29883.307 m/s.

(b) The mass of the sun is ~1.9891 x 10³⁰ kg.

the gravitational force between two objects is 1600 and what will be the gravitational force between the objects if the distance

Xelga [282]

I believe this is what you have to do:

The force between a mass M and a point mass m is represented by

$F = G\frac{Mm}{r^{2} }$

So lets compare it to the original force before it doubles, it would just be the exact formula so lets call that F₁

So F₁ = G(Mm/r^2)

Now the distance has doubled so lets account for this in F₂:

F₂ = G(Mm/(2r)^2)

Now square the 2 that gives you four and we can pull that out in front to give

F₂ = $\frac{1}{4}$ G(Mm/r^2)

Now we can replace G(Mm/r^2) with F₁ as that is the value of the force before alterations

now we see that:

F₂ = $\frac{1}{4}$ F₁

So the second force will be 0.25 (1/4) x 1600 or 400 N.
