You are walking toward the back of a train that is moving forward with a constant velocity. The train's velocity relative to the

ground is 30 m/s forward. Your velocity relative to the train is 1.5 m/s backward. How fast are you moving relative to the ground?

Answer:

28.5 m/s

Explanation:

There are 2 different velocities: the train velocity and yours velocity. They're in opposite directions, so one is positive and other is negative. Take the forward direction as the positive:

V = +30 -1.5

V = 28.5 m/s

A block of weight mg sits on an inclined plane as shown in (Figure 1) . A force of magnitude F1 is applied to pull the block up
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

W = (F1 - mg sin θ) L,   W = -μ  mg cos θ L

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second law to find the friction force. In these problems the x axis is taken parallel to the plane and the y axis perpendicular to the plane

Y Axis  

       N - W_{y} =

       N = W_{y}

X axis

       F1 - fr - Wₓ = 0

       fr = F1 - Wₓ

Let's use trigonometry to find the components of the weight

     sin θ = Wₓ / W

     cos θ = W_{y} / W

      Wₓ = W sin θ

      W_{y} = W cos θ

We substitute

      fr = F1 - W sin θ

Work is defined by

        W = F .dx

        W = F dx cos θ

The friction force is parallel to the plane in the negative direction and the displacement is positive along the plane, so the Angle is 180º and the cos θ= -1

         

        W = -fr x

        W = (F1 - mg sin θ) L

Another way to calculate is

         fr = μ N

         fr = μ W cos θ

the work is

         W = -μ  mg cos θ L

What is the most likely outcome of increasing the number of slits per unit distance on a diffraction grating?1) lines become nar
Nina [5.8K]

It's important to know that diffraction gratings can be identified by the number of lines they have per centimeter. Often, more lines per centimeter is more useful because the images separation is greater when this happens. That is, the distance between lines increases.

<h2>Therefore, the answer is 2.</h2>

how could you prove to a skeptic that the beats are an interference effect that requires both sound sources? test out your metho
podryga [215]

Beats are interference patterns between two tones of different frequencies. To prove the skeptic first, play the recorded audio as there are no beats in it. Now take two sound sources with different frequencies. When both sources are turned on, we hear notes that rise and fall at equal intervals. That's what's called beats.

A frequency beat occurs when two waves with different frequencies overlap, causing alternating cycles of constructive and destructive interference between the waves.

When we tap the table with our finger, then put our ear to the table, and tap the table surface as far as 30 cm from our ear. Then the sound of beats on the table will sound louder when we put our ears on the table. So, it can be concluded that solid objects can conduct sound better than air. This is because the molecules or particles of solid objects are denser than air.
