Waves are ?
that can travel through matter.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A wave can be thought of as a disturbance or oscillation that travels through space-time, accompanied by a transfer of energy. The direction a wave propagates is perpendicular to the direction it oscillates for transverse waves. A wave does not move mass in the direction of propagation; it transfers energy.

coefficient of viscosity of a glycerine is 8.4 poison explain

Answers

Answer:

coefficient of viscosity of 8.4 poison denotes that the tangential frictional force acting per unit area when divided by the velocity gradient as a result of streamline flow conditions gives 8.4.

Explanation:

Viscosity is defined as the extent to which a fluid can resist flow when a force is applied to it.

Now, coefficient of viscosity is the term in which viscosity is calculated. It is basically the tangential frictional force acting per unit area which is divided by the velocity gradient as a result of streamline flow conditions.

Thus, coefficient of viscosity of 8.4 poison denotes that the tangential frictional force acting per unit area when divided by the velocity gradient as a result of streamline flow conditions gives 8.4.

a. A compass needle placed above the wire points with its north pole toward the east. In What direction is the current flowing
b. If a compass is put underneath the wire, in which direction will the compass needle point?

Answers

Answer:

a. The current is flowing from South to North. So, the current flows in the North direction

b. West

Explanation:

a. A compass needle placed above the wire points with its north pole toward the east. In What direction is the current flowing?

Using Maxwell's corkscrew rule, with the thumb of the right hand pointing in the direction of the current and the closed fingers pointing in the direction of the magnetic field.

Since the compass is placed above the wire and points east, the direction of the magnetic field at that point is east.

Since the magnetic field is tangential to the circular path around the wire, to produce an eastward magnetic field above the wire, the current must go from South to North. So, the current flows in the North direction.

b. If a compass is put underneath the wire, in which direction will the compass needle point?

If the compass is put underneath the wire, using Maxwell's corkscrew rule, since the current points northward, and the magnetic field is tangential to the circular path around the wire, the magnetic field below the wire points west.

So, the direction of the compass needle when the compass is put beneath the wire is west.

Using the American Engineering system of units (AES), a) Calculate the weight of a 170.5 lbm person on the surface of the earth, where the local acceleration due to gravity is 32.174 ft/s2 . Report your answer in pound-force, lbf. b) What would be the weight of a 170.5 lbm astronaut on the moon, where the local acceleration due to gravity is 5.32 ft/s2 . Report your answer in pound-force, lbf.

Answers

Answer:

a) the weight of the person is 170.5 lbf

b) weight of the astronaut on the moon is 28.2 lbf

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a)

we know that;

weight on the surface of the earth = m[tex]g_{earth[/tex]

given that m = 170.5 lbm and g = 32.174 ft/s²

we substitute

weight on the surface of the earth =  170.5 lbm × 32.174 ft/s²

= 5485.667 lbm-ft/s²

1 lbf = 32.174 lbm-ft/s²

so

weight on the surface of the earth = (5485.667 / 32.174) lbf

weight on the surface of the earth = 170.5 lbf

Therefore, the weight of the person is 170.5 lbf

b)

given that;

weight on the surface of the earth = m[tex]g_{moon[/tex]

m = 170.5 lbm and g = 5.32 ft/s²

weight on the surface of the earth = 170.5 lbm × 5.32 ft/s²

= 907.06 lbm-ft/s²

1 lbf = 32.174 lbm.ft/s²

weight on the surface of the earth = ( 907.06 / 32.174 ) lbf

weight on the surface of the earth = 28.2 lbf

Therefore, weight of the astronaut on the moon is 28.2 lbf

The potential energy of a 40-kg cannonball is 14000 J. How high was the cannon ball to have this much potential energy?

Answers

Answer:

35.71 m

Explanation:

Potential energy is calculated using this formula:

PE = mghwhere m = mass (kg). g = gravitational acceleration on Earth (9.8 m/s²), h = height (m)

We are given 3 out of the 4 variables in this problem. We want to solve for h, the height of the cannon ball.

List out the known variables:

PE = 14,000 J m = 40 kg g = 9.8 m/s² h = ? m

Substitute these values into the potential energy formula.

14,000 = (40)(9.8)h 14,000 = -392h h = 35.7142857143

The cannonball was 35.71 m high to have a potential energy of 14,000 J.

HINT: The rope will be in equilibrium if the net force is 0.

Answers

Answer:

100

Explanation:

since the two at the left side is pulling with a force of 70 and 60 which equals to 130 for the rope to be in equilibrium, those at the left must also pull with same force. Which makes it 130-30=100N

A satellite orbits Earth 350 km above Earth's surface. Calculate the free-fall acceleration at this altitude.

Answers

Answer:

8.82 m/s²

Explanation:

Formula for the free fall or gravitational acceleration is;

a = GM/r²

Where;

G is gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^(-11) m³/kg.s²

M is mass of earth = 5.972 × 10^(24) kg

r is radius of earth = 6371 km

We are given that the satellite orbits Earth 350 km above Earth's surface.

Thus, new radius = 6371 + 350 = 6721 km = 6721000 m

Thus;

a = (6.67 × 10^(-11) × 5.972 × 10^(24))/(6721000²)

a = 8.82 m/s²

When you are driving on the freeway and following the car in front of you, how close is too close? Let's do an estimation.
1. Pick a car model (preferably the one you drive, but can also be any car of your dream), and find its stopping distance at highway speeds (you can usually find this type of data online).
2. Assuming that the car in front of you suddenly does a hard brake. For simplicity, assume that its braking performance is about the same as yours. Then also assume a reasonable amount of reaction time on your part (the time delay between seeing the brake lights lit up and applying your own brake). In order for you not to run into the car your are following, what's the closest distance you need to keep between the two cars?
3. Redo the same calculation if the vehicle in front of you is a typical big-rig truck. Find its braking data online.
4. There is a rule of thumb which says that you must stay one car length behind the car in front of you for every 10 mi/h of driving speed. From your calculation, does this rule make sense?

Answers

Answer:

1) v= 90km/h  d = 70 m,  2)  x₁ = v t_r,  x₁ = 6.25 m, 3) x₁=6.25 no change

4) x = 22 m

Explanation:

1) for the first part, you are asked to find the minimum safety distance with the vehicle in front

The internet is searched for the stopping distance for two typical speeds on the highway

v (km/ h)      v (m/s)      d (m)

90                  25           70

100                 27.78      84

the safe distance is this distance plus the distance traveled during the person's reaction time, which can be calculated with infirm movement

              v = x / t_r

               x₁ = v t_r

the average reaction time is t_r = 0.25s for a visual stimulus and t_r 0.17 for an auditory stimulus

therefore the safe distance is

              x_total = x₁ + d

2) The distance is the sum of the distance traveled in the reaction

              x₁ = v t_r

for v = 90 km / h

              x₁ = 25 0.25

              x₁ = 6.25 m

for v = 100 km / h

              x₁ = 27.78 0.25

              x₁ = 6.95 m

the total distance is

               x_total = x₁ + d

for v = 90 km / h

             x_total = 25 0.25 + 70

             x_total = 76.25 m

this is the distance until the cars stop and do not collide

3) the stopping distance of a truck is

   v = 90 km / h       d = 100 m

in this case we see that the braking distance is much higher,

the safe distance is given by the distance traveled during the reaction, as the truck brakes slower than the car this distance does not change

4) let's analyze the empirical rule: maintain the length of a car for each increase in speed of v = 10 m / h = 4.47 m / s

for the car case at v = 90km / h = 25 m / s

according to this rule we must this to

           x = 25 / 4.47 = 5.6 cars

each modern car is about 4 m long so the distance is

           x = 22 m

we see that this distance is much greater than the reaction  distance so it does not make much sense

200 Coulombs of charge passes through a point in a circuit for 0.6 minutes. what is the magnitude of the current flowing​

Answers

Answer:

5.56 A

Explanation:

From the question,

Where Q = charges, i = current, t = time.

Make i the subject of the equation

i = Q/t.............. Equation 2

Given: Q = 200 coulombs, t = 0.6 minutes = (0.6×60) seconds

Substitite these values into equation 2

i = 200/(0.6×60)

i = 5.56 A

Hence the magnitude of the current flowing through the circuit is 5.56 A

1. What does the Work-Energy Theorem state?
Work is equal to the change in kinetic energy
Work is equal to the change in momentum
Work is equal to the change in impulse
Work is equal to the change in position

Answers

The principle of work and kinetic energy (also known as the work-energy theorem) states that the work done by the sum of all forces acting on a particle equals the change in the kinetic energy of the particle. ... Kinetic Energy: A force does work on the block. So the answer would be the first one.

The Work-Energy Theorem states that Work is equal to the change in kinetic energy, which is the first option . This theorem is an essential principle in physics and mechanics, so first option is correct.

Work (W) is a measure of the energy transferred to or from an object by a force acting on it. It is defined as the product of the force applied to the object and the displacement of the object in the direction of the force. When a force does positive work on an object, it transfers energy to the object, increasing its kinetic energy. Conversely, when a force does negative work on an object (opposite to its direction of motion), it takes energy away from the object, decreasing its kinetic energy. So, first option is correct.

A flat loop of wire consisting of a single turn of cross-sectional area 8.80 cm2 is perpendicular to a magnetic field that increases uniformly in magnitude from 0.500 T to 1.80 T in 1.10 s. What is the resulting induced current if the loop has a resistance of 2.20

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the induced current is 4.73 x 10⁻³ A.

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns, N = 1

cross sectional area of the loop, A = 8.8  cm² = 8.8 x 10⁻⁴ m²

change in magnetic field strength, ΔB = 1.8 T -  0.5 T = 1.3 T

change in time, Δt = 1.10 s

resistance of the loop, R = 2.2 ohm

The magnitude of the induced emf is calculated as;

[tex]emf = \frac{NA \Delta B}{\Delta t} \\\\emf = \frac{1 \times 8.8\times 10^{-4} \times 1.3}{1.10} \\\\emf = 1.04 \times 10^{-3} \ V[/tex]

The induced current in the loop is calculated as;

[tex]I = \frac{emf}{R} \\\\I = \frac{1.04 \times 10^{-3}}{2.2} \\\\I= 4.73 \times 10^{-4} \ A[/tex]

Therefore, the magnitude of the induced current is 4.73 x 10⁻³ A
