T = 12.4 h, x(t) = .250 d (displacement)
The total amplitude is half of the distance d from the highest to lowest level. 
Using the equation x(t) = x(m) cos(wt + φ), we get: 

.250d = .5d cos(wt + φ) 
To find w, use the equation w = 2π / T 

.250d = .5d cos((2π / 12.4)t + φ) 

.250d = .5d cos((2π / 12.4)t + 0) 

Solve the equation for t. 
.250d / .5d = cos ((2π / 12.4) t) 
arccos(.5) = 2π / 12.4 * t 
arccos(.5) * 12.4 / 2 / π = t 
t = 2.066666 hours

Jin knows that the initial internal energy of a closed system is 78 J and the final internal energy is 180 J. He also knows that
lawyer [7]

As we know by the first law of thermodynamics

Q = \Delta U + W

here we know that

Q = heat given to the system

\Delta U = U_f - U_i

W = work done by the system

now here we can say

\Delta U = 180 - 78 = 102 J

W = 64 J

now we can say that heat will be given as

Q = 64 + 102 = 166 J

now here we can say that Jin does the error in his first step while calculation of change in internal energy as he had to subtract it while he added the two energy

So best describe Jin's Error is

<em>B )For step 1, he should have subtracted 78 J from 180 J to find the change in internal energy. </em>

What is the force of repulsion between two points positive charges 5 and 8 separated at a distance of 0.02m apart
Zinaida [17]

Explanation:

F =(frac{1}{4{pi}{varepsilon}_o}) x (frac {q_1q_2}{r^2})

F =(frac {5 {times} 10 {times} 8 {times} 10}{0.002 {times} 0.002}) x 9 x 10

F = 900N

Explain diffraction at a single slit (light)
Leto [7]

Answer:

At some point on say, the receiving screen, light emanating from the left side of the slit will be out of phase (a difference of 1/2 wavelengths) from   light coming from the center of the slit.

Thus for every point that is left of the center of the slit, there will be a point on the right side of the slit that is out of phase,

There will be no light on the screen at that particular point and thus there will be a dark fringe there.

That is the basic explanation for the appearance of dark and bright fringes on the receiving screen.

Construction, principal and working of electric motor​
bogdanovich [222]
A power supply A basic motor has a DC power source, in general. It supplies power for the motor or field coils armature. Field Magnet can be a permanent magnet or electromagnet The magnetic field tends to generate a torque on the spinning armature coil by virtue of Fleming's lefthand rule.
