evablogger [386]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

5m

Explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem,

a^2+ b^2=c^2

3^2+4^2=c^2

25=c^2

√(25)=c

5m=c

What measures the amount of displacement in a transverse wave
MAVERICK [17]
Unlike a longitudinal wave, a transverse wave moves about, perpendicular to the direction of propagation. The particles in a transverse wave do not travel along the direction of propagation, but only oscillate up and down on its equilibrium position. With this, the displacement can be determined by measuring (in the case of electronic waves, using an oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer) and setting the desired units to measure the wave in.

A hiker climbs a mountain. Starting at the base of the mountain, he first moved up 520m at a 32.0 degree angle. What is the fina

Answer:

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

Explanation:

<u>Displacement Vector</u>

Suppose an object is located at a position  

\displaystyle P_1(x_1,y_1)

and then moves at another position at

\displaystyle P_2(x_2,y_2)

The displacement vector is directed from the first to the second position and can be found as

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

If the position is given as magnitude-angle data ( z , α), we can compute its rectangular components as

\displaystyle x=z\ cos\alpha

\displaystyle y=z\ sin\alpha

The question describes the situation where the initial point is the base of the mountain, where both components are zero

\displaystyle P_1(0,0)

The final point is given as a 520 m distance and a 32-degree angle, so  

\displaystyle x_2=520\ cos32^o= 440.99\ m

\displaystyle y_2=520\ sin32^o=275.6\ m

The displacement is

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

who developed the quantum theory? who is remembered as the father of nuclear science? who developed the theories of relativity?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

1.Albert Einstein is considered as the one who developed the quantum theory. Although Planck gives the idea of quantized energy but Einstein gives the theory that not only the energy the wave or radiation itself is quantized.

2. Earnest Rutherford is considered as the father of nuclear science as he gives the concept of half life and  perform tests of alpha and beta radiations in various elements.

3. Again Albert Einstein was the one who gave the theory of relativity in 1905.
