Answer:

False

Explanation:

Larger pulse with more energy means that the wave has large amplitude. As in the given question, both the waves are travelling in the same medium, hence their speeds will remain same and therefore the larger pulse will not overtake the smaller pulse. Remember the amplitude of a wave does not affect the speed at which the wave travels

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The amplitude of a wave does not affect the speed at which the wave travels. The speed of a wave is only altered by alterations in the properties of the medium through which it travels.

Laura and Elana are discussing how to solve the following problem: "A canary sits 10 m from the end of a 30-m-long clothesline,

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

$f=2.236\ Hz$

Explanation:

Given:

Length of a rope, $l=30\ m$

Position of Canary on the rope from one end, $l_c=10\ m$

Position of Grackle on the rope from another end, $l_g=5\ m$

Tension in the rope, $F_T=200\ N$

linear mass distribution on the rope, $\mu=0.1\ kg.m^{-1}$

We have for the speed of wave on the string:

$v^2=\frac{F_T}{\mu}$

$v^2=\frac{200}{\0.1}$

$v=44.7\ m.s^{-1}$

<em>For canary to be undisturbed we need a node at this location.</em>

<em>Also, at the end close to Canary there must be a node to avoid any change in pattern of vibration.</em>

So,

the distance between Canary and the closer end must be equal to half the wavelength.

$\frac{\lambda}{2} =10\ m$

$\Rightarrow \lambda=20\ m$

∴Wavelength of wave to be produced = 20 m. This will give us nodes at the multiples of 10 and anti-nodes at the multiples of 5.

Now, frequency:

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$

$f=\frac{44.7}{20}$

$f=2.236\ Hz$

Solar cells are often coated with a transparent, thin film of silicon monoxide (n = 1.45) to minimize reflective losses from the

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

94.82 nm

Explanation:

We have given that wavelength $\lambda=550\ nm$

We have to find the minimum film thickness that produces the least reflection

minimum thickness is given by $t=\frac{\lambda }{4n}$

here n is given n=1.45

so minimum thickness $t=\frac{550 }{4\times 1.45}=94.82\ nm$

so the minimum film thickness will be 94.82 nm

In order to place a satellite into orbit, it requires enough fuel to supply the necessary mechanical energy. Into what types of

nexus9112 [7]

When a satellite is revolving into the orbit around a planet then we can say

net centripetal force on the satellite is due to gravitational attraction force of the planet, so we will have

$F_g = F_c$

$\frac{GM_pM_s}{r^2} = \frac{M_s v^2}{r}$

now we can say that kinetic energy of satellite is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}M_s v^2$

$KE = \frac{GM_sM_p}{2r}$

also we know that since satellite is in gravitational field of the planet so here it must have some gravitational potential energy in it

so we will have

$U = -\frac{GM_sM_p}{r}$

so we can say that energy from the fuel is converted into kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy of the satellite
