A sound wave propagates through a region filled with an ideal gas at constant temperature T. It approaches an acoustically perme
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The answer is <em>e.2</em>

Explanation:

We should make use of Snell's refractive law. The arriving wave has a certain velocity at T in a medium, then instantly it reaches a medium (same composition) at T' where velocity would either decrease or increase.

When the incidence angle is 30 °, and we want to make the refraction angle 90 ° such that no sound passes through the barrier (this would be named total internal refraction), so we want the second medium to be "faster" than in the first.

A proton, an alpha particle (a bare helium nucleus), and a singly ionized helium atom are accelerated through a potential differ
ra1l [238]

Answer:

The correct question is:

"Find the energy each gains"

The energy gained by a charged particle accelerated through a potential difference is given by

\Delta U = q\Delta V

where

q is the charge of the particle

\Delta V is the potential difference

For a proton,

q=+e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

And since \Delta V=100 V

The energy gained by the proton is

\Delta U=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(100)=1.6\cdot 10^{-17}J

For an alpha particle,

q=+2e=3.2\cdot 10^{-19}C

Therefore, the energy gained is

\Delta U=(3.2\cdot 10^{-19})(100)=3.2\cdot 10^{-17}J

Finally, for a singly ionized helium nucleus (a helium nucleus that has lost one electron)

q=+e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

So the energy gained is the same as the proton:

\Delta U=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(100)=1.6\cdot 10^{-17}J

Boyles law<br> squeezing a balloon is one way to burst it. Why? ...?
KiRa [710]
According to Boyle's Law,  volume is inversely proportional to pressure. It means if the volume of a gas goes up the pressure goes down and if the volume of the gas goes up the pressure goes down. When the pressure of air inside the inflated balloon is more than the atmospheric pressure outside the balloon. And also when the density inside is greater than the density outside. The molecules inside the balloon move and bang around the inner walls which produces force, which provides the pressure of an enclosed air.

A point charge Q is held at a distance r from the center of a dipole that consists of two charges ±q separated by a distance s.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

a) the magnitude of the force is

F= Q(\frac{kqs}{r^3}) and where k = 1/4πε₀

F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

b)  the magnitude of the torque on the dipole

τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²

Explanation:

from coulomb's law

E = \frac{kq}{r^{2} }

where k = 1/4πε₀

the expression of the electric field due to dipole at a distance r is

E(r) = \frac{kp}{r^{3} } , where p = q × s

E(r) = \frac{kqs}{r^{3} } where r>>s

a) find the magnitude of force due to the dipole

F=QE

F= Q(\frac{kqs}{r^3})

where k = 1/4πε₀

F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

b) b) magnitude of the torque(τ) on the dipole is dependent on the perpendicular forces

τ = F sinθ × s

θ = 90°

note: sin90° = 1

τ = F × r

recall  F = Qqs/4πε₀r³

∴ τ = (Qqs/4πε₀r³) × r

τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
