Waves that hit a fixed boundary return to the starting point on the____

Physics
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A: Opposite

Explanation:

From Newton's third law of motion, to every action there is an equal an opposite reaction. Thus, when the wave hits a fixed boundary, it is returned as a reflected wave to the starting point albeit on the other side.

A block with mass ma = 14.0 kg on a smooth horizontal surface is connected by a thin cord that passes over a pulley to a second
Drupady [299]
<span>We can assume that the horizontal surface has no friction and the pulley is massless. We can use Newton's second law to set up an equation. F = Ma F is the net force M is the total mass of the system a is the acceleration a = F / M a = (mb)(g) / (ma + mb) a = (6.0 kg)(9.80 m/s^2) / (6.0 kg + 14.0 kg) a = 58.8 N / 20 kg a = 2.94 m/s^2 The magnitude of the acceleration of the system is 2.94 m/s^2</span>

Which of the following explains why international travelers need to use special adapters when plugging a device designed to oper
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The answer is: The increased voltage causes an increase in power usage, and the device will over-heat.

Explanation:

First, we must consider the variables of the electrical system that will allow us to respond. In this case, power, current and voltage, which are related by

P=VI

Where P=Power, V=Voltage, I=Current.

In the equation it can be observed that power is directly proportional to the system voltage. Thus, if the voltage increases as in this case, the power will also increase, which overheats the device and can cause damage to it.

A motor uses motion in a magnetic field to produce an electric current. true or false
irinina [24]

Well, that's a nice, concise description, but it applies to a
generator, not a motor.  A motor does exactly the opposite.
It uses an electric current to produce motion in a magnetic field.

Sadly, the statement is false.

Car A starts out traveling at 35.0 km/h and accelerates at 25.0 km/h2 for 15.0 min. Car B starts out traveling at 45.0 km/h and
lawyer [7]

1 kilometre=1000 metre

      1 hour = 3600 second

       1\ km/hr=\frac{1000}{3600} m/s

       1\ km/hr=\frac{5}{18} m/s

The initial velocity of car A is 35.0 km/hr i.e

                                         35.0\ km/hr=35*\frac{5}{18} m/s

                                                                   = 9.72 m/s

The initial velocity of car B is 45 km/hr =12.5 m/s

The initial velocity of car C is 32 km/hr = 8.89 m/s

The initial velocity of car D is 110 km/hr=30.56 m/s

The acceleration of car A is given as  25\ km/hr^2

                                            =\ 25*\frac{1000}{3600*3600} m/s^2

                                            =0.00192901234 m/s^2

The time taken by car A = 15 min.

From equation of kinematics we know that-

                                 v= u+at      [Here v is the final velocity and a is the acceleration and t is the time]

Final velocity of A,  v = 9.72 m/s +[0.00192901234×15×60]m/s

                                   =11.456111106 m/s

The acceleration of B is given as    15\ km/hr^2

                                    =0.00115740740740 m/s^2

The time taken by car B =20 min

The final velocity of B is -

                             v= u+at

                               = u-at    [Here a is negative due to deceleration]

                               =12.5 m/s +[0.0011574074074×20×60]

                               =13.8888888.....

                               =13.9

The acceleration of C is given as    40\ km/hr^2          

                                                            =\ 0.003086419753 m/s^2

The time taken by car C =30 min

The final velocity of C is-

                                v = u+at

                                   =8.89 m/s+[0.003086419753×30×60] m/s

                                   =14.4455555555..m/s

                                   =14.45 m/s

The car C is decelerating.The deceleration is given as-  60\ km/hr^2

                                                                      =0.0046296296296m/s^2

The time taken by car D= 45 min.

The final velocity of the car D is-

                     v =u+at

                        =30.56 -[0.00462962962962×45×60]m/s

                        =18.06 m/s

Hence from above we see that the magnitude of final velocity car C and B is close to 15 m/s. The car C is very close as compared to car B.
