The answer to your question here is A,


(I am dragging a very helpful piece of information from a website call “The Physics Classroom” for an explain took by the way so go check them out if you are still having trouble.)

Hi, why do waves with longer wavelengths travel further than waves with shorter wavelengths?

Answers

Answer:

ones longer than the other daa

Explanation:

Answer:

well, because of the moon!

Explanation:

you see, the moon is what controls the waves. waves are most commonly caused by wind. wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. as wind blows across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave crest. the gravitational pull of the sun and moon on the earth also causes waves. so when the gravitation pull is weak, it creates the shorter wavelengths. without a stong pull, they don't go as far. when the pull is strong, the waves with longer wavelengths go further.

A spring with a spring constant of 50 N/m is displaced by a force of 40 N. What is the displacement of the spring? (Fₛ = k Δx)

Answers

Answer:

The spring stretches or compresses 0.8 m (80 cm)

Explanation:

Hooke's Law

The force (F) needed to stretch or compress a spring by some distance Δx is given by

[tex]F=-k\Delta x[/tex]

Where k is a constant factor characteristic of the spring.

We are given the constant of a spring k=50 N/m and it's required to calculate the displacement Δx produced by a force of F=40 N. Solving for Δx:

[tex]\displaystyle \Delta x=\frac{F}{k}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \Delta x=\frac{40}{50}[/tex]

Calculating:

[tex]\displaystyle \Delta x=0.8\ m[/tex]

The spring stretches or compresses 0.8 m (80 cm)

Which of the following will result in the highest conductance?
large cross-sectional area, short pipe
small cross-sectional area, long pipe
small cross-sectional area, short pipe
large cross-sectional area, long pipe

Answers

Answer:

The highest conductance results from;

Large cross-sectional area, short pipe

Explanation:

The conductance, G, of a material is a measure of the rate or ease of electricity conduction of the material

[tex]The \ conductance \ G = Current/(Potential \ difference) = \dfrac{I}{V} =\dfrac{1}{R} = \dfrac{A}{\rho \cdot l}[/tex]

Where;

I = The current

V = The voltage (Potential difference)

R = The resistance

A = The cross-sectional area of the conductor

L = The length of the conductor

ρ = The resistivity of the conductor

Therefore, "G" is directly proportional to "A"  ang "G" is inversely proportional to "l" from which we have that as the cross-sectional area increases the conductance increases and as the length of the pipe decreases the conductance increases.

The highest conductance is given by a large cross-sectional area and a short pipe.

Answer:

Large cross-sectional area, short pipe

A bicycle pump contains 20 cm3 of air at a pressure of 100 kPa. The air is then pumped in a tyre of volume 100 cm3. Calculate the pressure of the air in the tyre. Assume that the temperature is fixed. ​

Answers

Answer:

The pressure of the air in the tyre is 20 kPa

Explanation:

The parameters for the bicycle pump and tyre are;

The volume of air contained in the bicycle pump, V₁ = 20 cm³

The pressure of the air contained in the bicycle pump, P₁ = 100 kPa

The volume (available) of the tyre, where the air is pumped, V₂ = 100 cm³

Let P₂ represent the pressure in the tyre after the air is pumped

By Boyle's law, we have that at constant temperature, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure;

Mathematically, Boyle's law gives the following equation;

P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂

∴ P₂ = (P₁ × V₁)/V₂

Substituting the known values gives;

P₂ = (100 kPa × 20 cm³)/(100 cm³)

∴ P₂ = 100 kPa × 1/5 = 20 kPa

P₂ = 20 kPa

The pressure of the air in the tyre = P₂ = 20 kPa.

A car is driving on the road. The car starts to decelerate at -3 m/s2. It stops moving after 125
meters. How fast was the car going initially?

Answers

Answer:

27.39 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Deceleration (a) = –3 m/s²

Distance (s) = 125 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) =?

The initial velocity (u) of the car can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² + 2as

0² = u² + (2 × –3 × 125)

0 = u² + (– 750)

0 = u² – 750

Collect like terms

0 + 750 = u²

750 = u²

Take the square root of both side

u = √750

u = 27.39 m/s

Thus, the initial velocity of the car was 27.39 m/s

A beam of light of wavelength lambda = 541nm is normally incident on a diffraction grating which has 600 lines m * m ^ - 1 Determine the angle theta 2 at which the second order diffracted beam is seen.

Answers

Answer:

Angle of diffraction for second order maxima is θ = 18.941°

Explanation:

From the question it is given that

wavelength of incident light = λ = 541 nm = 541 x [tex]10^-^9 m[/tex]

order of maxima = n =2

diffraction grating has 600 lines per mm

⇒ distance between two slit is [tex]\frac{1mm}{600}[/tex] = 1.66 x [tex]10^-^6[/tex] m

using the relation of Braggs diffraction formula i.e.,

2dsinθ = nλ ..................................(1)

where, d = distance between two lines of grating

θ is the angle of diffraction

n= order of maxima

λ is the intensity of incident photon

on substituting the respected values in relation (1) we get,

2 x 1.66 x [tex]10^-^6[/tex]m sinθ = 2 x 541 x [tex]10^-^9 m[/tex]

⇒ sinθ = 0.3246

θ = [tex]sin^-^1(0.3246)[/tex] = 18.941 °

What happens first when a star begins to run out of fuel?

The star’s core shrinks.
The star becomes a black hole.
The star becomes a white dwarf.
The star’s outer layer drifts away.

Answers

The star’s core shrinks, this happens first when a star begins to run out of fuel. Hence option A is correct.

What is star ?

A star is a type of celestial object that consists of a bright spheroid of plasma kept together by self-gravity. The Sun is the closest star to Earth. Many other stars can be seen with the open eye at night, but due to their great distances from Earth, they appear as fixed points of light. Many of the brightest stars have proper names, and the most prominent stars have been classified into constellations and asterisms. Astronomers have put together star catalogues that identify known stars and offer conventional stellar designations. An estimated 1022 to 1024 stars exist in the visible cosmos. Only about 4,000 of these stars can be seen with the open eye, and they are all located within the Milky Way galaxy.

Hence option A is correct.

Needles sinks in water due to the more density of needles than the density of water. But ship is made hollow and contains air. So it's average density Is less than that of water. It displaces the liquid of it's own weight causing the ship to float on water.

So, it it possible for iron ships to float on water,but needles sink when dropped in water.

Answers

Answer:

125.44 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Weight on earth = 784 N

Acceleration due to gravity of the moon (gₘ) = 1.6 m/s²

Weight on moon =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of the person. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight on earth (Wₑ) = 784 N

Acceleration due to gravity of earth (gₑ) = 10 m/s²

Mass (m) =?

Wₑ = m × gₑ

784 = mass × 10

Divide both side by 10

Mass = 784 / 10

Mass = 78.4 Kg

Finally, we shall determine the weight of the person on moon. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = constant = 78.4 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity of the moon (gₘ) = 1.6 m/s²

Weight on moon (Wₘ) =?

Wₘ = m × gₘ

Wₘ = 78.4 × 1.6

Wₘ = 125.44 N

Therefore, the weight of the person on moon is 125.44 N.

The magnitude of inertia depends on the mass of the body.

What is inertia?

The term inertia has to do with the degree of resistance to motion. We know that an object will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion unless it is acted upon by an external force.

The magnitude of inertia depends on the mass of the body. Since the truck is more massive than the car, it follows that a moving truck takes a much longer time to stop than that taken by a car when brakes are pressed at the same time​.
