Think about holding a glass of cold water. Your hand is warmer than the glass. Do the particles in your hand or those in the gla

technically usually the warmer object/substances particles move master which causes friction among the particles plus the kinetic energy being converted to thermal energy, so i would say the hand.

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A general wave function is given by:

f(x,t)=Acos(kx-\omega t)

A: amplitude of the wave = 0.075m

k: wave number

w: angular frequency

a) You use the following expressions for the calculation of k, w, T and λ:

\omega = 2\pi f=2\pi (2.00Hz)=12.56\frac{rad}{s}

k=\frac{\omega}{v}=\frac{12.56\frac{rad}{s}}{12.0\frac{m}{s}}=1.047\ m^{-1}

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{2.00Hz}=0.5s\\\\\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}=\frac{2\pi}{1.047m^{-1}}=6m

b) Hence, the wave function is:

f(x,t)=0.075m\ cos((1.047m^{-1})x-(12.56\frac{rad}{s})t)

c) for x=3m you have:

f(3,t)=0.075cos(1.047*3-12.56t)

d) the speed of the medium:

\frac{df}{dt}=\omega Acos(kx-\omega t)\\\\\frac{df}{dt}=(12.56)(1.047)cos(1.047x-12.56t)

you can see the velocity of the medium for example for x = 0:

v=\frac{df}{dt}=13.15cos(12.56t)

If, while standing on the bank of a stream, you wished to spear a fish swimming in the water out in front of you, would you aim
Serggg [28]

Answer:

<em>a) below the observed position</em>

<em>b) directly at the observed position</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

If I'm standing on the bank of a stream, and I wish to spear a fish swimming in the water out in front of me, I would aim below the observed fish to make a direct hit. This is because the phenomenon of refraction of light in water causes the light coming from the fish is refract away from the normal as it passes  into the air and into my eyes.

If I'm to zap the fish with a taser, I would aim directly at the observed fish because the laser (a form of concentrated light waves) will refract into the water, taking the same path the light from the fish took to get to my eyes.

Answer:

b. Hill top

Explanation:

On a topographic map, the closed circles are meant to represent a hill. So if the contour lines are creating a group of concentric closed loops then it must be an indication of a hill.

Briefly describe the difference between the behaviorist, nativist, and interactionist language acquisition theories.
Over [174]

Answer:

Described below

Explanation:

- The behaviorist theories: This theory is of the claim that language is learned through the means of reinforcement and imitation. This means that little children can mimic the language of individuals around them and also receive reinforcement to correct the formation of their words. Thereafter, words not reinforced will eventually no longer be in use.

- The nativist theories: This theory is of the claim that individuals possess an innate process which is used in language learning and is widely known as "language acquisition device" (LAD). This device is used to assist in helping them automatically learn languages.

-The interactionist theories: This theory is of the claim that innate processes which is also referred to as genetic predispositions and learning experiences from the environment both help in language development.
