In a longitudinal wave, amplitude can be measured

Physics
1 answer:
nignag [31]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Compressions

Explanation:

A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the direction of propagation of the wave and the direction of the displacement of the particles of the wave are parallel.

As the wave propagates, the particles do not move, but, oscillate back and forth about their equilibrium position, and there are thus regions of high pressure called compressions and regions of low pressure called rarefactions.

The amplitude is thus the distance between successive compressions.

A rock at the top of a 30 meter cliff has a mass of 25 kg. Calculate the rock’s gravitational potential energy when dropped off
nalin [4]

Potential energy =

                     (mass) x (gravity) x (height above the reference level) .

Relative to the bottom of the cliff, the potential energy
at the top of the cliff is

                         (25kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (30 meters)

                     =  (25 x 9.8 x 30)  kg-m²/s²

                     =        7,350 joules .

Kinetic energy = (1/2) x (mass) x (speed²)

The rock's kinetic energy at the bottom is
the same as its potential energy at the top.

                                        7,350 joules = (1/2) x (25 kg) x (speed²)

Divide each side
by 12.5kg :                7,350 joules/12.5 kg  =  speed²

                                 7,350 kg-m²/s² / 12.5kg  =  speed²

                                 (7,350 / 12.5)  m²/s²  =  speed²

                                      588 m²/s²  =  speed²
Take the square root
of each side:            
                                   Speed = √(588 m²/s²) 

                                             =  24.248... m/s       (rounded)

Light in a vacuum travels at a constant speed of 3x10^8 m/s. If the moons average distance from the earth is 38776106 km how lon
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer: 258.3 s

Explanation:

The speed s is given by the following equation:

s=\frac{D}{t}

Where:

s=3(10)^{8} m/s is the speed of light in vacuum

D=2(38776106 km \frac{1000 m}{1 km})=7.75(10)^{10} m is the double of the distance between Earth and Moon, since the beam of light travels from Earth to the Moon and back to Earth again.

t is the time it takes to the beam of light to travel the mentioned distance

Isolating t and solving with the given information:

t=\frac{D}{s}

t=\frac{7.75(10)^{10} m}{3(10)^{8} m/s}

Finally:

t=258.3 s \approx 258 s
