Answer:

The energy becomes 4 times greater.

Explanation:

We know that the energy of a wave is proportional to the square of its amplitude

E ∝ Amplitude^2

Since the original amplitude = 0.5 m

and the new amplitude becomes = 1 m

We are doubling the amplitude. This means that the new energy will be affected by a factor of 4

E_new  ∝ (2*Amplitude)^2  =

E_new ∝ 4*(Amplitude)^2  

E_new  = 4*E

The Cartesian coordinate of a point in the xy plane are (x,y)=(-3.50,-2.50)m. Find the poler coordinate of this point
Masja [62]

Answer:

The polar coordinate of P(x,y) = (-3.50\,m,-2.50\,m) is P (r,\theta) = (4.301\,m, 215.538^{\circ}).

Explanation:

Given a point in rectangular form, that is P(x,y) = (x,y), its polar form is defined by:

P(x,y) = (r,\theta) (1)

Where:

r - Norm, measured in meters.

\theta - Direction, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

The norm of the point is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:

r = \sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}} (2)

And direction is calculated by following trigonometric relation:

\theta = \tan^{-1} \frac{y}{x} (3)

If we know that x = -3.50\,m and y = -2.50\,m, then the components of coordinates in polar form is:

r = \sqrt{(-3.50\,m)^{2}+(-2.50\,m)^{2}}

r \approx 4.301\,m

Since x < 0\,m and y < 0\,m, direction is located at 3rd Quadrant. Given that tangent function has a period of 180º, we find direction by using this formula:

\theta = 180^{\circ}+\tan^{-1} \left(\frac{-2.50\,m}{-3.50\,m} \right)

\theta \approx 215.538^{\circ}

The polar coordinate of P(x,y) = (-3.50\,m,-2.50\,m) is P (r,\theta) = (4.301\,m, 215.538^{\circ}).

Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of m and n when the time it takes a beam of
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

5,2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of light C=3.0×10^8 m/s.

Generally the equation for Average Speed is mathematically given by

V_{avg}=\frac{d}{t}

Where

d=Distance between the Earth and the sun

d=1.5*10^11m

Therefore

t=\frac{d}{V_{avg}}

t=\frac{1.5*10^11m}{3.0×10^8 m/s.}

t=5*10^2s

Since m and n is given in the form of

m*10^n

Therefore

m=5 & n=2

The conduction velocity of an axon is determined by:
Marina86 [1]

The conduction velocity of an axon is determined by myelin sheath

thickness and internode distance.

Axon are structures in the neuron which is involved in the conduction of

impulses away from the cell body. Axons which have myelin sheath conduct

impulses faster than those without it.

Axons which have thicker myelin sheath and longer internode distance will

increase the conduction velocity of an axon and vice versa.
