Answer:

light is a transverse wave. The direction of energy transfer is perpendicular to the motion of the wave

Explanation:

Light is an example of a wave that transfers energy through empty space. How are all mechanical waves similar? The waves caused by an earthquake are good examples of energy transfer. The disturbed ground shakes from side to side and up and down as the waves move through it,

A hockey puck is struck so that it slides at a constant speed and strikes the far side of the rink, 58.2 m away. The shooter hea

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

$v = 33.66 m/s$

Explanation:

Let hockey puck is moving at constant speed v

so here we have

$d = vt$

so time taken by the puck to strike the wall is given as

$t = \frac{58.2}{v}$

now time taken by sound to come back at the position of shooter is given as

$t_2 = \frac{58.2}{340}$

$t_2 = 0.17s$

so we know that total time is 1.9 s

$1.9 = t + t_2$

$1.9 = t + 0.17$

$1.9 - 0.17 = t$

$t = 1.73 s$

now we have

$1.73 = \frac{58.2}{v}$

$v = 33.66 m/s$

Describe the results of Ernest Rutherford's gold-foil experiment and explain how his results changed ideas about the distributio

DochEvi [55]

In Rutherford's gold foil experiment, some of the positive particles would pass through the foil and some would bounce off. This led to a new theory that all of the positive subatomic particles were in the center of the atom instead of evenly spread throughout.

What magnitude charge creates a 1.0 n/c electric field at a point 1.0 m away?

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

$1.1\cdot 10^{-10}C$

Explanation:

The electric field produced by a single point charge is given by:

$E=k\frac{q}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q is the charge

r is the distance from the charge

In this problem, we have

E = 1.0 N/C (magnitude of the electric field)

r = 1.0 m (distance from the charge)

Solving the equation for q, we find the charge:

$q=\frac{Er^2}{k}=\frac{(1.0 N/c)(1.0 m)^2}{9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2c^{-2}}=1.1\cdot 10^{-10}C$

Milk containing 3.7% fat and 12.8% total solids is to be evaporated to produce a product containing 7.9% fat. What is the yield

ratelena [41]

Answer:

the yield of product is YP=46.835 % and the concentration of solids is

Cs = 27.33%

Explanation:

Assuming that all the solids and fats remains in the milk after the evaporation, then the mass of product mP will be

Mass of fat in 100 kg of milk = 100 kg* 0.037 = mP* 0.079

mP = 100 kg* 0.037/0.079 = 46.835 kg

then the yield YP of the product is

YP= mP / 100 kg = 46.835 kg / 100 kg = 46.835 %

YP= 46.835 %

the concentration of solids Cs is

Mass of solids in 100 kg of milk = 100 kg* 0.128 = 46.835 kg * Cs

Cs = 100 kg* 0.128 / 46.835 kg = 0.2733 = 27.33%

Cs = 27.33%
