Answer:

Explanation:

A wave is a phenomenon that travels through a material medium without any permanent effect on the medium. It can be classified as mechanical or electromagnetic waves. And the two major types are transverse and longitudinal.

From the given question;

1. Longitudinal waves e.g sound waves, waves in a spring'

2. Frequency (number of cycles per second).

3. Wavelength of the wave. Measured in meters.

4. Transverse waves e.g light waves, water waves.

5. Wave speed.

6. Electromagnetic waves e.g ultraviolet waves, X-rays etc.

7. Amplitude.

8. Hertz.

9. Rarefaction

10. Compression

A tube is sealed at both ends and contains a 0.0100-m long portion of liquid. The length of the tube is large compared to 0.0100

Ahat [919]

Answer:

31.321 rad/s

Explanation:

L = Tube length

A = Area of tube

$\rho$ = Density of fluid

v = Fluid velocity

m = Mass = $\rho Al$

Centripetal force is given by

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{L}\\ F=\dfrac{m(\omega L)^2}{L}\\ F=m\omega^2\\ F= 0.01A\rho\omega^2L$

Pressure is given by

$P=\dfrac{F}{A}=\rho gL\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.01A\rho\omega^2L}{A}=\rho gL\\\Rightarrow 0.01\omega^2=g\\\Rightarrow \omega^2=\dfrac{g}{0.01}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{0.01}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{9.81}{0.01}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=31.321\ rad/s$

The angular speed of the tube is 31.321 rad/s

Explain why the driver's reaction time affects the thinking distance.

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The thinking distance depends on the reaction time of the driver which could can affected by alcohol, distractions and tiredness. A faster speed increases both thinking distance, increasing the total stopping distance.

To find the number of neutrons in an atom, you would subtract

Luda [366]

Atomic number is equal to the number of protons and electrons

Atomic mass - protons = neutrons

protons + neutrons = atomic mass

R'=2 Ohm R"=1,5 Ohm R"'=2 Ohm

Andrew [12]

Answer:

2.5 ohm

Explanation:

R' and R''' are parallel

So,

1/R1= 1/R' + 1/R'''

1/R1 = 1/2 + 1/2

1/R1 = 1

so,

R1= 1 ohm

Now R1 and R'' are in series

so,

R= R1 + R''

R= 1 + 1.5

R= 2.5 ohm

A point charge of -4.28 pC is fixed on the y-axis, 2.79 mm from the origin. What is the electric field produced by this charge a

makkiz [27]

Answer:

E = (-3.61^i+1.02^j) N/C

magnitude E = 3.75N/C

Explanation:

In order to calculate the electric field at the point P, you use the following formula, which takes into account the components of the electric field vector:

$\vec{E}=-k\frac{q}{r^2}cos\theta\ \hat{i}+k\frac{q}{r^2}sin\theta\ \hat{j}\\\\\vec{E}=k\frac{q^2}{r}[-cos\theta\ \hat{i}+sin\theta\ \hat{j}]$ (1)

Where the minus sign means that the electric field point to the charge.

k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2

q = -4.28 pC = -4.28*10^-12C

r: distance to the charge from the point P

The point P is at the point (0,9.83mm)

θ: angle between the electric field vector and the x-axis

The angle is calculated as follow:

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{2.79mm}{9.83mm})=74.15\°$

The distance r is:

$r=\sqrt{(2.79mm)^2+(9.83mm)^2}=10.21mm=10.21*10^{-3}m$

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

$\vec{E}=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)\frac{4.28*10^{-12}C}{(10.21*10^{-3}m)}[-cos(15.84\°)\hat{i}+sin(15.84\°)\hat{j}]\\\\\vec{E}=(-3.61\hat{i}+1.02\hat{j})\frac{N}{C}\\\\|\vec{E}|=\sqrt{(3.61)^2+(1.02)^2}\frac{N}{C}=3.75\frac{N}{C}$

The electric field is E = (-3.61^i+1.02^j) N/C with a a magnitude of 3.75N/C
