Which one of the following terms is used to describe the bending of waves and subsequent spreading around obstacles or the edges
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

B)Diffraction

Explanation:

The concept of diffraction in the field of physics is defined as the deflection of a wave when it crosses an opening or hits the edge of an opaque element. Diffraction is a phenomenon that involves all waves: electromagnetic, radio, sound, etc., and it is possible to predict their behavior using different mathematical approaches. There is a method of analysis called the Huygens principle, which allows us to understand diffraction as a wavefront that is seen as a series of emitters capable of redirecting the wave when it oscillates and thus promotes propagation. Although the waves produced by the oscillators are spherical, their interference causes a flat wave that moves in the same direction as the initial one.

The tire on this drag racer is severely twisted: The force of the road on the tire is quite large(most likely several times the
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer: Speeding Up

Explanation:

Force is proportional to the acceleration of an object. The greater the force, the more acceleration will be produced.

When the force on the tire is equal to the weight of the car, the car is reaching a stability as a result of increase in motion.

But when the force of the load on the tire is quite large(most likely several times the weight of the car) and is directed forward, then, the car is at high speed.

A 2.40 kg ball is attached to an unknown spring and allowed to oscillate. The figure below shows a graph of the ball’s position
irga5000 [103]

(a) The period of the oscillation is 0.8 s.

(b) The frequency of the oscillation is 1.25 Hz.

(c) The angular frequency of the oscillation is 7.885 rad/s.

(d) The amplitude of the oscillation is 3 cm.

(e) The force constant of the spring is 148.1 N/m.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Mass of the ball, m = 2.4 kg</em>

<em />

From the given graph, we can determine the missing parameters.

The amplitude of the wave is the maximum displacement, A = 3 cm

The period of the oscillation is the time taken to make one complete cycle.

T = 0.8 s

The frequency of the oscillation is calculated as follows;

f = \frac{1}{T} \\\\f = \frac{1 }{0.8} \\\\f = 1.25 \ Hz

The angular frequency of the oscillation is calculated as follows;

\omega = 2\pi f\\\\\omega = 2\pi \times 1.25\\\\\omega = 7.855 \ rad/s

The force constant of the spring is calculated as follows;

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\\omega ^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\\\ k = \omega ^2 m\\\\k = (7.855)^2 \times 2.4\\\\k = 148.1 \ N/m

Calculate the angular velocity and linea­r velocity of both wheels assuming the l­arger wheel rotates at 120 revolutions p­er mi
IRINA_888 [86]
<span>120 revolutions p­er min is (20RPM)
120revolutions is 240 Pi radians (because 1 revolution is 2Pi rad)

angular velocity
w= 240Pixf, f is the frequency and f= 1/T, T =1mn=60s=period, so f=1/60=0.01Hz
so w = 240*Pi*0.01=12.56 rad /s
linear velocity can be found with
V =Rx w,    
V=12.56 R the value depends on what value is the radius of both wheels

What is the cause of the falling surface temperatures of the Pacific Ocean?
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The primary cause of rising SST levels worldwide is climate warming due to excessive amounts of greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere. Heat from the warming atmosphere raises the temperature of the sea surface. ... Water expands as it warms and the increased volume causes sea level rise.

Explanation:

I think so, sorry if wrong
