Answer: Diffraction</h2><h2 />
Diffraction is a characteristic phenomenon that occurs in all types of waves
.
In this sense, <u>diffraction</u> happens when a wave (the light in this case) meets an obstacle or a slit .When this occurs, the light bends around the corners of the obstacle or passes through the opening of the slit that acts as an obstacle, forming <u><em>multiple patterns</em></u> with the shape of the aperture of the slit.
Note that the principal condition for the occurrence of this phenomena is that <u>the obstacle must be comparable in size (similar size) to the size of the wavelength.

You said that she's losing 1.9 m/s of her speed every second.
So it'll take
(6 m/s) / (1.9 m/s²) = 3.158 seconds (rounded)
to lose all of her initial speed, and stop.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Focal length of the concave mirror, f = -13.5 cm
Image distance, v = -37.5 cm (in front of mirror)
Let u is the object distance. It can be calculated using the mirror's formula as :
u = -21.09 cm
The magnification of the mirror is given by :
m = -1.77
So, the magnification produced by the mirror is (-1.77). Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
a.) 1567.2 m/s
b.) 149.4 m/s
Explanation:
Given that a 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal explosion, it breaks into three parts. One part, with a mass of 7.8 kg, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 180 m/s in the positive y direction. A second part, with a mass of 8.8 kg, moves in the negative x direction with a speed of 640 m/s.
The x-component of the third part can be calculated by assuming that it moves in a positive x axis.
The third mass = 26 - ( 7.8 + 8.8)
The third mass = 26 - 16.6
The third mass = 9.4kg
since momentum is conserved, the momentum before explosion will be equal to sum of the momentum after explosion
26 x 350 = -8.8 x 640 + 9.4V
9100 = -5632 + 9.4V
9.4V = 9100 + 5632
9.4V = 14732
V = 14732/9.4
V = 1567.2 m/s
(b) y-component of the velocity of the third part will be
7.8 x 180 = 9.4 V
1404 = 9.4V
V = 1404/9.4
V = 149.4 m/s
Answer:
d. decreases
Explanation:
The law of conservation of momentum tells us that the sum of momenta before the collision is equal to the sum of momenta after the collision. The bag has no momentum as it falls onto the boat because its velocity is zero in the horizontal direction. But after it hits the boat, it's momentum increases while the momentum of the system remains the same. That means a component of the system must decrease somewhere else. And that component is the velocity, not the mass, of the boat.
