A light wave moves from a medium where particles of matter are closely packed to a medium made of very little matter. How do you

expect the light wave to travel differently?
The light will change wavelength and lose energy.



The wavelength will change along with the frequency.



The wave will move faster, increasing its speed.

The wavelength will chang along with the frequency, I think.  I don't recall why it would lose energy...

"The wave will move faster, increasing its speed" is the way among the following choices given in the question that you can expect the light wave totravel differently. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the fourth option or the last option. I hope the answer has come to your help.

The velocity of a car changes from 50 m/s north to 40 m/s north in 2 seconds. What is the car’s acceleration?
Zigmanuir [339]
Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by the change in time. Since the velocity changed from 50 m/s to 40 m/s (-10 m/s change) in 2 seconds, then the acceleration is (-10/2) = -5 m/s^2 northward. Hope this helps!

If a planet has 3 times the radius of the Earth, but has the same density as the Earth, what is the gravitational acceleration a
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The Gravitational Acceleration of the Big planet is G = 3g

where G is the gravitational acceleration of the Big Planet and g is the gravitational acceleration of the Earth

So, it becomes G = 3 x 9.8ms^{-2}

G = 29.4 ms^{-2}  

Explanation:

Let's start by calculating the <u>Density of the Earth</u> of mass m anad Radius r

We know that mass is density times the volume

ρ = \frac{m}{V}

m = ρV

we know the volume is V = \frac{4}{3} πr^{3} (please ignore the symbol of Pi)

m = ρ\frac{4}{3} πr^{3}

Calculating the <u>Density of Big Planet</u>

→For Big Planet we know that radius is 3-times the radius of Earth, that is 3r

M = ρ\frac{108}{3} π(r)^{3}    

So in conclusion, the mass of Earth and the mass of Big planet are related as M = 27m    

Now let's come to the Gravitational Force, we know that gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of the body and inversely proportional to the radius.

→Suppose for Earth:  Mass = m, Radius = r  

For Big Planet:   Mass = M, Radius = R

\frac{m}{r^{2} } :  \frac{M}{R^{2} } = g : G

\frac{Gm}{r^{2} } =  \frac{gM}{R^{2} }

G =\frac{gMr^{2}}{mR^{2}}

→ Putting the value of R = 3r and M = 27m

G = \frac{g27mr^{2}}{m(3r)^{2}}

By cutting the terms, we get

G = 3g

value of g= 9.8ms^{-2}  

G = 3 x 9.8ms^{-2}  

G = 29.4 ms^{-2}

To form a hydrogen atom, a proton is fixed at a point and an electron is brought from far away to a distance of 0.529 ✕ 10−10 m,
Elodia [21]
1) First of all, let's calculate the potential difference between the initial point (infinite) and the final point (d=0.529x10-10 m) of the electron.
This is given by:
\Delta V =- \int\limits^{d}_{\infty} {E} \, dr
Where E is the electric field generated by the proton, which is
E=k_e  \frac{q}{r^2} 
where k_e=8.99\cdot10^9~Nm^2C^{-2} is the Coulomb constant and q=1.6\cdot10^{-19}~C is the proton charge.
Replacing the electric field formula inside the integral, we obtain
\Delta V =- \int\limits^{d}_{\infty} {k_e  \frac{q}{r^2} } \, dr = k_e  \frac{q}{d}= 27~V

2) Then, we can calculate the work done by the electric field to move the electron (charge q_e=-1.6\cdot10^{-19}C) through this \Delta V. The work is given by
W=-q_e \Delta V = - (-1.6\cdot10^{-19}C) (27V)=4.35\cdot10^{-18}~J

Hi, I am having some difficulties in solving this question. Could someone please explain this question to me in detail. The thin
aniked [119]

Answer:

a) 3.0×10⁸ m

b) 0 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance from the starting position to the final position.

a) In half a year, the Earth travels from one point on the circle to the point on the exact opposite side of the circle (from 0° to 180°).  The distance between the points is the diameter of the circle.

x = 2r

x = 2 (1.5×10⁸ m)

x = 3.0×10⁸ m

b) In a full year, the Earth travels one full revolution, so it ends up back where it started.  The displacement is therefore 0 m.

Two long, straight wires are parallel and are separated by a distance of d = 0.210 m. The top wire in the sketch carries current
love history [14]

Answer:

1.88\cdot 10^{-5} T, inside the plane

Explanation:

We need to calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field produced by each wire first, using the formula

B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}

where

\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability

I is the current

r is the distance from the wire

For the top wire,

I = 4.00 A

r = d/2 = 0.105 m (since we are evaluating the field half-way between the two wires)

so

B_1 = \frac{(4\pi\cdot 10^{-7})(4.00)}{2\pi(0.105)}=7.6\cdot 10^{-6}T

And using the right-hand rule (thumb in the same direction as the current (to the right), other fingers wrapped around the thumb indicating the direction of the magnetic field lines), we find that the direction of the field lines at point P is inside the plane

For the bottom wire,

I = 5.90 A

r = 0.105 m

so

B_2 = \frac{(4\pi\cdot 10^{-7})(5.90)}{2\pi(0.105)}=1.12\cdot 10^{-5}T

And using the right-hand rule (thumb in the same direction as the current (to the left), other fingers wrapped around the thumb indicating the direction of the magnetic field lines), we find that the direction of the field lines at point P is also inside the plane

So both field add together at point P, and the magnitude of the resultant field is:

B=B_1+B_2 = 7.6\cdot 10^{-6} T+1.12\cdot 10^{-5}T=1.88\cdot 10^{-5} T

And the direction is inside the plane.
