How can the speed of ripples in a ripple tank be changed​

Physics
1 answer:
Tanzania [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

By putting something like a sheet of glass in the water.

Explanation:

Putting a sheet of glass in the water will make the ripples move slower because the speed of a wave depends on the depth of water.

An electric pump has 2kW power . How much water will it lift every minute if the height is 10 m ?
valkas [14]

Answer:

Given that,

  • Power = 2000 W
  • time = 60 seconds
  • distance= 10m

Power = work done ÷ time

Here, since the movement is vertical, w = mgh

So,

Power = mgh÷t

2000 = (m × 9.8 ×10) ÷ 60

m = (2000 ×60) ÷98

m = 1224.5kg

Two insulated copper wires of similar overall diameter have very different interiors. One wire possesses a solid core of copper,
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a

 Solid Wire     I  =   0.01237 \  A      

  Stranded  Wire  I_2  =   0.00978 \  A

b

  Solid Wire   R  = 0.0149 \ \Omega

   Stranded  Wire  R_1  = 0.0189 \ \Omega

Explanation:

Considering the first question

From the question we are told that

  The  radius of the first wire is  r_1  = 1.53 mm = 0.0015 \  m

  The radius of  each strand is  r_0 =  0.306 \ mm =  0.000306 \ m

  The current density in both wires is  J  =  1750 \  A/m^2

Considering the first wire

     The  cross-sectional area of the first wire is

      A   = \pi  r^2

= >  A   = 3.142 *  (0.0015)^2

= >  A   = 7.0695 *10^{-6} \  m^2

Generally the current in the first wire is    

     I  =  J*A

=>  I  =  1750*7.0695 *10^{-6}

=>  I  =   0.01237 \  A

Considering the second wire  wire

The  cross-sectional area of the second wire is

     A_1  =  19 *  \pi r^2

=>     A_1  =  19 *3.142 *  (0.000306)^2

=>  A_1  =  5.5899 *10^{-6} \  m^2

Generally the current is  

      I_2  =  J  *  A_1

=>    I_2  =   1750  *  5.5899 *10^{-6}

=>    I_2  =   0.00978 \  A

Considering question two  

 From the question we are told that

     Resistivity is  \rho  =  1.69* 10^{-8} \Omega \cdot m

     The  length of each wire  is  l =  6.25 \  m

Generally the resistance of the first wire is mathematically represented as

    R  =  \frac{\rho *  l  }{A}

=> R  =  \frac{  1.69* 10^{-8} * 6.25 }{ 7.0695 *10^{-6} }

=> R  = 0.0149 \ \Omega

Generally the resistance of the first wire is mathematically represented as

    R_1  =  \frac{\rho *  l  }{A_1}

=> R_1  =  \frac{  1.69* 10^{-8} * 6.25 }{5.5899 *10^{-6} }

=> R_1  = 0.0189 \ \Omega

How much total surface of the moon is illuminated by the sun when it is at quarter phase?
alex41 [277]
50% of the moon is always illuminated, however during it's quarter phase means that we only see a quarter of what's really lit up. So it LOOKS like the moon is only 25% lit and 75% dark, it's truly 50/50. We only see that 25% since we can see it from one angle.

Answer the answers that you know.
sesenic [268]
1).  Sequence from the Sun:

       Inner planets:
                 Mercury
                 Venus
                 Earth
                 Mars

       Outer planets:
                 Jupiter
                 Saturn
                 Uranus
                 Neptune
            
2).  The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes
to orbit the sun.  Mercury ... 88 days.  Earth ... 365 days.
                           Jupiter ... 12 years.    Neptune ... 165 years.

3).  Mercury & Venus ... no moons
      Earth - 1
      Mars - 2
     Jupiter -  more than 65

4).  Mercury ... cratered, no atmosphere
      Venus ... cratered, thick cloudy atmosphere
       Mars ... dry, cratered, slight atmosphere, like 1% or Earth's
      
       Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
                     We can't see any surface.  If any of them even
                     HAS a surface, it's thousands of miles under a
                     thick atmosphere of methane gas.

5).  Missing from the list

6).  Here's a list from the biggest planet to the smallest one.
The numbers in parentheses are the radius of the planet --
half of the diameter:

Jupiter (69,911 km / 43,441 miles) – 1,120% the size of Earth
Saturn (58,232 km / 36,184 miles) – 945% the size of Earth
Uranus (25,362 km / 15,759 miles) – 400% the size of Earth
Neptune (24,622 km / 15,299 miles) – 388% the size of Earth
Earth (6,371 km / 3,959 miles)
Venus (6,052 km / 3,761 miles) – 95% the size of Earth
Mars (3,390 km / 2,460 miles) – 53% the size of Earth
Mercury (2,440 km / 1,516 miles) – 38% the size of Earth

7). At least seven of the planets rotate in the same direction. 
There's something different about one of them ... it may be Uranus
but I'm not sure.  You'll have to look this up.

8).  Saturn has the famous rings, that you can almost see
with only binoculars.
Spacecraft sent to observe the outer planets have detected
very thin rings around Uranus and Neptune.

9).  Included in #6.

10).  I don't have complete info.  Generally, the closer the planet
is to the sun, the hotter it is.  But there are a few exceptions. 
I think Venus ... the second one from the sun, is actually hotter
than Mercury. 

11).  Just about every language has its own name for each planet.

12).  "Terrestrial" means "like Earth" ("Terra").
The terrestrial planets are the ones that have solid surfaces
and are made of rock.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.

13).  "Jovian" means "like Jupiter".
Either no solid surface, or very small, inside a big deep gas ball. 
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.
