Two solid spheres are made from the same material, but one has twice the diameter of the other. Which sphere will have the great

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

It will be the same for both

Explanation:

from this question we have one similarity between these two spheres.

- they are both made from the same material,

The difference between both spheres is that:

- one of the spheres has its diameter to be twice as large as that of the other one.

We are to say the sphere with the greater bulk modulus.

If the material is the same thenthe Bulk modulus is also the same. It is not dependent on the material since it is a constant for that materia

Therefore the correct answer is:

It will be the same for both spheres.

A radar station detects an airplane approaching directly from the east. At first observation, the range to the plane is 375.0 m

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

819.78 m

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

OA = range of initial position of the airplane from the point of observation = 375 m
OB = range of the final position of the airplane from the point of observation = 797 m
$\theta$ = angle of the initial position vector from the observation point = $43^\circ$
$\alpha$ = angle of the final position vector from the observation point = $123^\circ$
$\vec{AB}$ = displacement vector from initial position to the final position

A diagram has been attached with the solution in order to clearly show the position of the plane.

$\vec{OA} = OA\cos \theta \hat{i}+OA \sin \theta \hat{j}\\\Rightarrow \vec{OA} = 375\ m\cos 43^\circ \hat{i}+375\ m\sin 43^\circ \hat{j}\\\Rightarrow \vec{OA} = (274.26\ \hat{i}+255.75\ \hat{j})\ m\\\vec{OB} = OB\cos \alpha \hat{i}+OB \sin \alpha \hat{j}\\\Rightarrow \vec{OB} = 797\ m\cos 123^\circ \hat{i}+797\ m\sin 123^\circ \hat{j}\\\Rightarrow \vec{OB} = (-434.08\ \hat{i}+668.42\ \hat{j})\ m$

Displacement vector of the airplane will be the shortest line joining the initial position of the airplane to the final position of the airplane which is given by:

$\vec{AB}=\vec{OB}-\vec{OA}\\\Rightarrow \vec{AB} = (-434.08\ \hat{i}+668.42\ \hat{j})\ m-(274.26\ \hat{i}+255.75\ \hat{j})\ m\\\Rightarrow \vec{AB} = (-708.34\ \hat{i}+412.67\ \hat{j})\ m$

The magnitude of the displacement vector = $\sqrt{(-708.34)^2+(412.67)^2}\ m = 819.78\ m$

Hence, the magnitude of the displacement of the plane is 819.67 m during the period of observation.

Receiver maxima problem. When the receiver moves through one cycle, how many maxima of the standing wave pattern does the receiv

shusha [124]

Answer:

Two.

Explanation:

A standing wave or stationary wave are the type of wave in which it oscillates with time but the amplitude does not move.

One complete wave consists of two loops.
It means that when the receiver moves through one cycle, two maxima of standing wave pattern the receiver pass through.

A train travels 55 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 52 kilometers in 5 hours. What is its average speed?

bulgar [2K]

The formula for working out speed is distance ÷ time.

55 km ÷ 2 hours = 27.5 km/h (average speed for first part of journey)

52km ÷ 5 hours = 10.4 km/h (average speed for second part of journey)

(27.5 + 10.4) ÷ 2 = 18.95 km/h (average speed throughout the journey)
