Answer:

Explanation:

C Remaining or left over after everything has been accounted for.

You can have as many forces as you can define as long as there is an opposing force that cancels it out. If there is just 1 more force that cannot be cancelled, then it is a remaining force and it determines what happens to the object.

The rest have to do with something that resembles a fisherman's net.

xxMikexx [17]

answer: 340 m/s

explanation: in this instance, the sound wave travels 340 meters in 1 second, so the speed of the wave is 340 m/s. remember, when there is a reflection, the wave doubles its distance. in other words, the distance traveled by the sound wave in 1 second is equivalent to the 170 meters down to the canyon wall plus the 170 meters back from the canyon wall.

7. A double-slit experiment uses coherent light of wavelength 633 nm with a slit separation of 0.100 mm and a screen placed 2.0
Illusion [34]

Answer:

The distance between first-order and second-order bright fringes is 12.66mm.

Explanation:

The physicist Thomas Young establishes through its double slit experiment a relationship between the interference (constructive or destructive) of a wave, the separation between the slits, the distance between the two slits to the screen and the wavelength.

\Lambda x = L\frac{\lambda}{d}  (1)

Where \Lambda x is the distance between two adjacent maxima, L is the distance of the screen from the slits, \lambda is the wavelength and d is the separation between the slits.  

The values for this particular case are:

L = 2.0m

\lambda = 633nm

d = 0.100mm

Notice that is necessary to express L and \lambda in units of milimeters.

L = 2.0m \cdot \frac{1000mm}{1m} ⇒ 2000mm

\lambda = 633nm \cdot \frac{1mm}{1x10^{6}nm} ⇒ 6.33x10^{-4}mm

Finally, equation 1 can be used:

\Lambda x = (2000mm)\frac{(6.33x10^{-4}mm)}{(0.100mm)}

\Lambda x = 12.66mm

Hence, the distance between first-order and second-order bright fringes is 12.66mm.

Korolek [52]

Answer:

a. v_f=1.477m/s

b. ΔK=1558.3J

c. E_k=1034.7 J

Explanation:

a).

Momentum conserved

p_{ix}=p_{fx}

m_1*v_1+m_2*v_2=(m_1+m_2)*v_f

v_f=\frac{m_1*v_1+m_2*v_2}{m_1+m_2}

v_f=\frac{89.0kg*5.6m/s+85.0kg*-2.84m/s}{(89.0+85.0)kg}

v_f=1.477m/s

b).

ΔK=K_i-K_f

\frac{1}{2}*m_1*v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}*m_2*v_2^2=\frac{1}{2}*(m_1+m_2)*v_f^2

\frac{1}{2}*89.0kg*(5.6m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}*85.0kg*(2.84m/s)^2=\frac{1}{2}*(89.0+85.0)kg*(1.447m/s)^2

ΔK=1558.3J

c).

E_k=\frac{1}{2}*89kg*(5.8m/s)^2-\frac{1}{2}*(85+89)kg*(1.44m/s)^2

E_k=1034.7 J

d).

All of which has been lost as mechanical energy, and is now thermal energy warmer football players, noise a loud crunch for example.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

B=2.025\times 10^{11}\ Pa

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of P- waves, v = 9 km/s = 9000 m/s

The density of rock is about 2500\ kg/m^3

We need to find the average bulk modulus of Earth's crust. Let it is given by B. So,

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{B}{d}} \\\\B=v^2d\\\\B=(9000)^2\times 2500\\\\B=2.025\times 10^{11}\ Pa

So, the bulk modulus of the Earth's crust is 2.025\times 10^{11}\ Pa.
