Answer:

B. convergent boundary

Explanation:

Convergent boundaries, where ocean plates are subducted at trenches, produce the most tsunamis because they produce the largest earthquakes

What is the maximum value of the magnetic field at a distance of 2.5 m from a light bulb that radiates 100 W of single-frequency

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

$1.04\times 10^{-7}$ T

Explanation:

$IP$ = Power of the bulb = 100 W

$r$ = distance from the bulb = 2.5 m

$I$ = Intensity of light at the location

Intensity of the light at the location is given as

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^{2}}$

$I = \frac{100}{4(3.14) (2.5)^{2}}$

$I$ = 1.28 W/m²

$B_{o}$ = maximum magnetic field

Intensity is given as

$I = \frac{B_{o}^{2}c}{2\mu _{o}}$

$1.28 = \frac{B_{o}^{2}(3\times 10^{8})}{2(12.56\times 10^{-7})}$

$B_{o} = 1.04\times 10^{-7}$ T

The distance between adjacent nodes in a standing wave pattern in a length of string is 25.0 cm:A. What is the wavelength of wav

mina [271]

A) 50 cm

B) 10000 cm/s

Explanation

Step 1

If you know the distance between nodes and antinodes then use this equation:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=D \\ \text{where}\lambda\text{ is the wavelength} \\ D\text{ is the distance betw}een\text{ nodes} \end{gathered}$

then, let

$D=\text{ 25 cm }$

now, replace to find the wavelength

$\begin{gathered} \frac{\lambda}{2}=25 \\ \text{Multiply both sides by 2} \\ \frac{\lambda}{2}\cdot2=25\cdot2 \\ \lambda=50\text{ Cm} \end{gathered}$

so, the wavelength is

A) 50 cm

Step 2

The speed of a wave can be found using the equation

$v=\lambda f$

or velocity = wavelength x frequency,

then,let

$\begin{gathered} \lambda=50\text{ cm} \\ f=200\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}$

replace and evaluate

$\begin{gathered} v=\lambda f \\ v=50\text{ cm }\cdot200\text{ HZ} \\ v=10000\text{ }\frac{\text{cm}}{s} \end{gathered}$

B) 10000 cm/s

A guitar string is 0.620m long, and oscillates at 234Hz. What is the velocity of the waves in the string? m/s

9966 [12]

Answer:

v = 72.54 m/s

Explanation:

We have,

Length of a guitar string is 0.62 m

Frequency of a guitar string is 234 Hz

For guitar string,

$L=2\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{L}{2}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{0.62}{2}\\\\\lambda=0.31\ m$

The velocity of the wave in the string is given by :

$v=f\lambda\\\\v=234\times 0.31\\\\v=72.54\ m/s$

So, the velocity of the waves in the string is 72.54 m/s.
