Physics
1 answer:
Nitella [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct option is (C).

Explanation:

Electric current can be direct or alternating.

The direct current flows only in one direction. It is unidirectional.

The alternating current or an C current reverse its direction periodically.

So, the correct statement regarding the alternating current is (c) i.e. Electrons reverse direction periodically.

Help me please Which of the following statements best describes the atoms and molecules that make up a glass
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The atoms and molecules of the liquid water are moving, while the atoms and molecules of the glass are not moving

Explanation:

Matter that exist in the liquid or gaseous state consist of molecules that move freely about in the entire containing medium for gas, while the molecules move freely  in the portion of the container occupied by the fluid in the case of liquid fluids

However, the molecules of a solid are fixed within the current shape of the solid and are only free to vibrate within a fixed location and the allow the passage of subatomic particles such as electrons

As such, the glass cup being a solid, consists of molecules fixed in space, while the liquid water consists of molecules which can translate within the portion of the volume of the glass filled with the water.

A chair exerts a force of 20 N on a floor and is not moving. What force does
AysviL [449]

The floor exerts 20 N of force on the chair

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's third law, which states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"</em>

In this problem, we can identify:

- Object A as the chair

- Object B as the floor

This means that the force of 20 N exerted by the chair on the floor is the action, and so the force exerted by the floor on the chair is the reaction. Newton's third law states that these two forces are equal and opposite: therefore, the force exerted by the floor on the chair is also 20 N, but in the opposite direction.

Jan first uses a Michelson interferometer with the 606 nmnm light from a krypton-86 lamp. He displaces the movable mirror away f
gogolik [260]

Answer:

a) d₁ = 247.8 μm

d₂ = 205.3 μm

b) d₂ = 20.53 x 10⁻⁵ m = 205.3 μm

Explanation:

a)

The formula for Michelson Interferometer is derived to be:

d = mλ/2

where,

d = distance moved

m = no. of fringes

λ = wavelength of light

For JAN, we have following data

d = d₁

m = 818

λ = 606 nm = 606 x 10⁻⁹ m

Therefore,

d₁ = (818)(606 x 10⁻⁹ m)/2

<u>d₁ = 24.78 x 10⁻⁵ m = 247.8 μm</u>

For LINDA, we have following data

d = d₂

m = 818

λ = 502 nm = 502 x 10⁻⁹ m

Therefore,

d₂ = (818)(502 x 10⁻⁹ m)/2

<u>d₂ = 20.53 x 10⁻⁵ m = 205.3 μm</u>

b)

The resultant displacement can be found out from the difference between both displacement. And the direction of resultant displacement will be the same as the direction of greater displacement. Therefore,

Resultant Displacement = Δd = d₁ - d₂

Δd = 247.8 μm - 205.3 μm

<u>Δd = 42.5 μm (in the direction of JAN)</u>
