Below are the choices that can be found in the other sources:

A. diffraction 
<span>B. refraction </span>
<span>C. reflection </span>
<span>D. transmission
</span>
The answer is diffraction. It means that <span>the process by which a beam of light or other system of waves is spread out as a result of passing through a narrow aperture or across an edge, typically accompanied by interference between the wave forms produced.</span>

A grasshopper jumps at a 65.0 degree angle at 5.42m/s. At what time does it reach its maximum height?
crimeas [40]
When the grasshoppers vertical velocity is exactly zero.
v = -g•t + v0.
v: vertical part of velocity. Is zero at maximum height.
g: 9.81
t: time you are looking for
v0: initial vertical velocity
Find the vertical part of the initial velocity, by using the angle at which the grasshopper jumps.

A sister spins her brother in a circle of radius R at angular speed wi. Then the sister decreases her angular speed
Igoryamba

Answer:

The change in the centripetal acceleration of the brother,

                               Δa = V₂²/R - V₁²/R

Explanation:

Given data,

A sister spins her brother in a circle of radius, R

The angular velocity of the brother, ω₁ = V₁/R

The angular velocity of the brother, ω₂ = V₂/R

The centripetal acceleration is given by the relation

                                 a = V²/R

Therefore change in the centripetal acceleration of the brother,

                              Δa = V₂²/R - V₁²/R

First find ∮RB⃗ ⋅dl⃗ , the line integral of B⃗ around a loop of radius R located just outside the left capacitor plate. This can
Allisa [31]

Answer:

the expression of current in the loop enclosed to the left of the capacitor plate is

I(t) = \frac{1}{\mu_0}\int B. dL

Explanation:

As we know by Ampere's law that line integral of magnetic field around a closed loop is proportional to the current enclosed in the path

So we will have

\int B. dL = \mu_0 I(t)

so we have

I(t) = \frac{1}{\mu_0}\int B. dL

so above is the expression of current in the loop enclosed to the left of the capacitor plate

Water, of density 1000 kg/m3, is flowing in a drainage channel of rectangular cross-section. The width of the channel is 15 m, t
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Water flowing rate=  (300000kg/s) = (300000l/s)

Explanation:

First with the section of the channel, the depth of the water and the speed of the fluid we can determine the volume of fluid that circulates per second through the channel:

Volume per time= 15m × 8m × (2.5m/s)= 300 m³/s

With this volume of circulating fluid per second elapsed, we multiply it by the density of the water to determine the kilograms or liters of water that circulate through the channel per second elapsed:

Water flowing rate= (300m³/s) × (1000kg/m³)= (300000kg/s) = (300000l/s)

Taking into account that 1kg of water is approximately equal to 1 liter of water.
