Help me with this homework

Physics

Answer:

4. The reading decreases because part of your weight is applied to the table and the table exerts a matching force on you that acts in the direction opposite to your weight.

Explanation:

When you push on anything, Newtons Third Law comes into effect: "when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction." So pretty much, the table you are putting some of your weight on is taking some of the downward force and in return the scale isn't going to push up with as much force.

I'm not the best at explaining, but im in physics right now and thats somewhat how my teacher explained it.

Orlov [11]

The question is incomplete. You dis not provide values for A and B. Here is the complete question

Light in the air is incident at an angle to a surface of (12.0 + A) degrees on a piece of glass with an index of refraction of (1.10 + (B/100)). What is the angle between the surface and the light ray once in the glass? Give your answer in degrees and rounded to three significant figures.

A = 12

B = 18

Answer:

18.5⁰

Explanation:

Angle of incidence i = 12.0 + A

A = 12

= 12.0 + 12

= 14

Refractive index u = 1.10 + B/100

= 1.10 + 18/100

= 1.10 + 0.18

= 1.28

We then find the angle of refraction index u

u = sine i / sin r

u = sine24/sinr

1.28 = sine 24 / sine r

1.28Sine r = sin24

1.28 sine r = 0.4067

Sine r = 0.4067/1.28

r = sine^-1(0.317)

r = 18.481

= 18.5⁰

Pls someone I need it urgently and explain Solving and explanation so I can understand Thank you
Temka [501]

Answer:

   f = 6.37 Hz,       T = 0.157 s

Explanation:

The expression you have is

       y = 5 sin (3x - 40t)

this is the equation of a traveling wave, the general form of the expression is

      y = A sin (kx - wt)

where A is the amplitude of the motion, k the wave vector and w the angular velocity

Angle velocity and frequency are related

         w = 2π f

         f = w / 2π

from the equation w = 40 rad / s

        f = 40 / 2π

        f = 6.37 Hz

frequency and period are related

       f = 1 / T

       T = 1 / f

       T = 1 / 6.37

       T = 0.157 s
