4 0

Answer:

The name given to the underwater mountains in the middle of oceans is;

Mid-ocean ridges

Explanation:

Mid-ocean ridges, also known as mid-oceanic ridge is a mountain range made by plate tectonics under the water.

The magma created at a divergent boundary where two tectonic plates meet due to the rise of convection currents in the Earth's mantle which is beneath the oceanic crust results in the uplifting of the ocean floor.

An electromagnetic wave is propagating towards the west. At a certain moment the direction of the magnetic field vector associat
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

either +z direction or -z direction.

Explanation:

The direction of the electric field, in an electromagnetic wave always is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field and the direction of propagation of the wave.

You assume a system of coordinates with the negative x axis as the west direction, and the y axis as the up direction

In this case, the wave is propagating toward the west (- x direction), and the magnetic field vector points up (+ y direction), then, it is mandatory that the electric field vector points either +z direction or -z direction.

Name at least three fundamental differences between the harmonic oscillator dynamics and the simple pendulum dynamics
xenn [34]

Answer: please find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

Harmonic can be experienced by any body that repeats itself. The pattern can be sinusoidal, square, tooth etc.

The fundamental differences between the harmonic oscillator dynamics and the simple pendulum dynamics are:

1.) The harmonic oscillator dynamics can be sinusoidal or square wave so far the motion is periodic while the simple pendulum dynamics is always sinusoidal.

2.) In simple pendulum dynamics, the period of oscillation is independent of the amplitude. While the period in harmonic oscillator dynamics depends on the amplitude.

3.) Differential equation is only one method to analyze the simple pendulum dynamics where there are several methods to analyze the harmonic oscillator dynamics.

A cosmic ray travels 60.0 km through the earth's atmosphere in 500 μs , as measured by experimenters on the ground. You may want
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

t' = 458.26 μs

Explanation:

given,

distance traveled by the cosmic ray = 60 Km

time = 500 μs

time taken for the journey according to cosmic ray = ?

now,

 v =\dfrac{distance}{time}

 v =\dfrac{60\times 10^3}{500\times 10^{-6}}

      v = 1.2 x 10⁸ m/s

according to time dilation formula

t' = t\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}

t' = 500\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(1.2\times 10^8)^2}{(3\times 10^8)^2}}

     t' = 500 x 0.9165

    t' = 458.26 μs

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor. The charge per unit area on each plate is
amm1812

Answer:1.066\times 10^7 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Charge per unit area on each plate(\sigma)=2.2\times 10^{-7}

Plate separation(y)=0.013 m

and velocity is given by

v^2-u^2=2ay

where a=acceleration is given by

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{eE}{m}

e=charge on electron

E=electric field

m=mass of electron

E=\frac{\sigma }{\epsilon _0}

a=\frac{e\sigma }{m\epsilon _0}

substituting values

v=sqrt{\frac{2e\sigma y}{m\epsilon _0}}

v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2.2\times 10^{-7}\times 0.013}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}}

v=1.066\times 10^7 m/s
