Answer:

Reflection

Explanation:

The wave phenomenon that allows the DVD player to work is REFLECTION.

Reflection is defined as the repropagation of incident light striking a plane surface.

The light ray striking the surface is incident ray while the repropagated light ray is the reflected ray. The DVD was able to play because the laser light that hits the surface of the disk was able to reflect back and returns to the detector. The detector senses the light and cause the DVD to play. If the laser light didn't reflect, assuming it was absorbed by the surface of the disk, the detector wouldn't have detected the light and the DVD wouldn't have played.

The mass of an object is 10 kg and the velocity is 4 m/s, what is the momentum?
eduard

The answer is 40 kg. m/s.

Formula for momentum:

p=mv

p=(10 kg.)(4 m/s)

So, therefore, the final answer is p=40 kg. m/s.

I hope this helped answer your question. Enjoy your day, and take care!

In which space, outdoors or in your classroom, would it be easier to hear a musician? Explain
bixtya [17]

Answer:

It is easier to hear a musician in the classroom than outdoors

Explanation:

It is easier to hear a musician in the classroom due to the improved acoustics provided by the walls of the classroom whereby along with the direct sound of the musician, which is the lead source of the sounds, there is an increased number of indirect sound reaching the ear in the classroom than outdoors and due to precedence effect, all the sound appear to come from the musician

In music played outside, along side the direct sound from the musician, the indirect sound that reach the ear is echoed from maybe by only the ground while the majority of the sound from the music wanders away with the wind and in other directions as well as being absorbed such that speakers will be required to improve the sound of the music outdoors.

The atomic mass of an atom (in amu) is equal to
ladessa [460]

An atomic mass unit (symbolized AMU or amu) is defined as precisely 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The carbon-12 (C-12) atom has six protons and six neutrons in its nucleus. In imprecise terms, one AMU is the average of the proton rest mass and the neutron rest mass.

To calculate the atomic mass of a single atom of an element, add up the mass of protons and neutrons.

Two runners start at the same point and jog at a constant speed along a straight path. Runner A starts at time t = 0 s, and Runn
Radda [10]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

First thing to do here, is to calculate the speed of each runner. The problem states that both runners jog at a constant speed. We are given data for both runners, the starting time and the time where both of them reach the same distance.

With these data we can calculate the speed of both runners. Let's do it with runner 1:

If by t  = 25 s it reach a 64 m of distance, then his speed:

V = d/t   (1)

Replacing we have:

V₁ = 64 / 25 = 2.56 m/s

With this speed we can calculate the distance at t = 45 s so:

d = V * t    (2)

d₁ = 2.56 * 45

<h2>d₁ = 115.2 m</h2>

So Runner 1 will be at 115.2 from the starting point at 45 seconds.

For runner 2, he began at t = 2.5 s, but he reach the 64 m at 25 s, so his speed would be:

V₂ = 64 / (25-2.5) = 2.84 m/s

And the distance at t = 45 s

d₂ = 2.84 * 45

<h2>d₂ = 127.8 m</h2>

Runner 2 is 127.8 m from the starting point at 45 seconds.

Hope this helps
