When two or more waves meet, they interact with each other. The interaction of waves with other waves is called wave interference. Wave interference may occur when two waves that are traveling in opposite directions meet. The two waves pass through each other, and this affects their amplitude.

A straightforward method of finding the density of an object is to measure its mass and then measure its volume by submerging it
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Density of rock will be equal to 3.13g/cm^3

Explanation:

It is given that mass of the rock m=260gram

Volume displaced bu rock V=83cm^3

We have to find the density of rock

Density is equal to ratio of mass and volume

Therefore density of rock \rho =\frac{m}{V}

\rho =\frac{260}{83}=3.13g/cm^3

So density of rock will be equal to 3.13g/cm^3

Consider the reaction data. A ⟶ products T ( K ) k ( s − 1 ) 225 0.385 525 0.635 What two points should be plotted to graphicall
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Plot ln K vs 1/T

(a) -0.5004; (b) 0.002 539 K⁻¹; (c) -197.1 K⁻¹; (d) 1.64 kJ/mol

Explanation:

This is an example of the Arrhenius equation:

k = Ae^{-E_{a}/RT}\\\text{Take the ln of each side}\\\ln k = \ln A - \dfrac{E_{a}}{RT}\\\\\text{We can rearrange this to give}\\\ln k = - \dfrac{E_{a}}{R}\dfrac{1}{T} + \ln A\\\\y = mx + b

Thus, if we plot ln k vs 1/T, we should get a straight line with slope = -Eₐ/R and a y-intercept = lnA

Data:

\begin{array}{cccc}\textbf{k/s}\mathbf{^{-1}} &\mathbf{\ln k} & \textbf{T/K} & \mathbf{1/T(K^{-1})}\\0.285 & -0.9545 & 225 &0.004444\\0.635 & -0.4541 & 525 & 0.001905\\\end{array}

Calculations:

(a) Rise

Δy = y₂ - y₁ = -0.9545 - (-0.4541) = -0.9545 + 0.4541 = -0.5004

(b) Run

Δx = x₂ - x₁ = 0.004 444 - 0.001 905 = 0.002 539 K⁻¹

(c) Slope

Δy/Δx = -0.5004/0.002 539 K⁻¹ = -197.1 K⁻¹

(d) Activation energy

Slope = -Eₐ/R

Eₐ = -R × slope = -8.314 J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹ × (-197.1 K⁻¹) = 1638 J/mol = 1.64 kJ/mol

A ray of light traveling in water (n = 1.33) is incident at the flat surface of a block of glass (n = 1.60). If the incident ray
Rudik [331]

Answer:

θ₂ ≈ 29.7°

Explanation:

Given:

n₁ = 1.33, n₂= 1.60, θ₁ = 36.6°, θ₂ = ?

Solution:

According to snell's Law

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

1.33 × sin (36.6°) = 1.60 × sin θ₂

⇒ Sin θ₂ = 0.496

θ₂ ≈ 29.7°

I been having a problem with this question can you please help??
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

(D) Water is denser than oil but less than syrup.

Explanation:

Given:

A picture of a jar containing three liquids.

The position of the syrup is at the bottom of the jar. The position of water is in middle and the oil is at the top.

We know that, the oil is the lightest in density when compared to syrup and water. So, it is at the top.

Now, since water is in the middle of the two, it means that density of water is greater than that of oil but less dense than that of syrup.

So, the density of the syrup is the greatest. Hence, it sits at the bottom.

Therefore, the best explanation is that water being less dense than syrup but more dense than oil, will be in the middle of two.

This explains the position of all the three liquids. Water is in the middle, oil at top and syrup at bottom.

So, the last option is correct.

A wooden block with mass 1.45 kg is placed against a compressed spring at the bottom of a slope inclined at an angle of 29.0 deg
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

76.3 J

Explanation:

I'm assuming the distance of 4.60 m is along the incline, not the vertical distance from the bottom.  I'll call this distance d, so h = d sin θ.

Initial energy = final energy

Energy in spring = gravitational energy + kinetic energy + work by friction

E = mgh + 1/2 mv² + Fd

We need to find the force of friction.  To do that, draw a free body diagram.

Normal to the incline, we have the normal force pointing up and the normal component of weight (mg cos θ).

Sum of the forces in the normal direction:

∑F = ma

N - mg cos θ = 0

N = mg cos θ

Friction is defined as:

F = Nμ

Plugging in the expression for N:

F = mgμ cos θ

Substituting:

E = mgh + 1/2 mv² + (mgμ cos θ) d

E = mg (d sin θ) + 1/2 mv² + (mgμ cos θ) d

E = mgd (sin θ + μ cos θ) + 1/2 mv²

Given:

m = 1.45 kg

g = 9.90 m/s²

d = 4.60 m

θ = 29.0°

μ = 0.45

v = 5.10 m/s

Solving:

E = mgd (sin θ + μ cos θ) + 1/2 mv²

E = (1.45) (9.80) (4.60) (sin 29.0 + 0.45 cos 29.0) + 1/2 (1.45) (5.10)²

E = 76.3 J
