A Gaussian surface (sometimes abbreviated as g.s.) is a closed surface in three-dimensional space through which the flux of a vector field is calculated; usually the gravitational field, the electric field, or magnetic field.[1] It is an arbitrary closed surface S = ∂V (the boundary of a 3-dimensional region V) used in conjunction with Gauss's law for the corresponding field (Gauss's law, Gauss's law for magnetism, or Gauss's law for gravity) by performing a surface integral, in order to calculate the total amount of the source quantity enclosed; e.g., amount of gravitational mass as the source of the gravitational field or amount of electric charge as the source of the electrostatic field, or vice versa: calculate the fields for the source distribution.

Answer:

Approximately $71\%$ .

Explanation:

The formula for the kinetic energy $\rm KE$ of an object is:

$\displaystyle \mathrm{KE} = \frac{1}{2}\, m \cdot v^2$ ,

where

$m$ is the mass of that object, and
$v$ is the speed of that object.

Important: Joule ( $\rm J$ ) is the standard unit for energy. The formula for $\rm KE$ requires two inputs: mass and speed. The standard unit of mass is $\rm kg$ while the standard unit for speed is $\rm m \cdot s^{-1}$ . If both inputs are in standard units, then the output (kinetic energy) will also be in the standard unit (that is: joules,

Convert the unit of the arrow's mass to standard unit:

$m = 63\; \rm g = 0.063\; \rm kg$ .

Initial $\rm KE$ of this arrow:

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{KE} &= \frac{1}{2} \, m \cdot v^2 \\ &= \frac{1}{2}\times 0.063\; \rm kg \times \left(\rm 28 \; m \cdot s^{-1}\right)^2 \\ &\approx 24.696\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

That's the same as the energy output of this bow. Hence, the efficiency of energy transfer will be:

$\displaystyle \frac{24.696\; \rm J}{34.8\; \rm J} \times 100\% \approx 71\%$ .

Answer:

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Explanation: comparing the wave equation above with the general wave equation

y(x,t) = Asin(2Πft + 2Πx/¶)

Let ¶ be the wavelength

A is the amplitude

f is the frequency

t is the time

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Determine the sign (+ or −) of the torque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps, the sign of the weight of the forearm,

Alex Ar [27]

Ans:
1. τbiceps = +(Positive)
2. τforearm = -(Negative)
3. τball = -(Negative)

Explanation:

The figure is attached down below.

1. Torque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the biceps.

We can see in the figure that F(biceps) is in upward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the counterclockwise direction. The torque in counterclockwise direction is positive(+). Therefore, the sign would be +.

2. Torque about the the weight of the forearm, τforearm:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the forearm.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(forearm) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.

3. Torque about the the weight of the ball, τball:
Since Torque = r x F (where r and F are the vectors)
Where r is the vector from elbow to the ball.

Also weight is the special kind of Force caused by the gravity.

We can see in the figure that W(ball) is in downward direction, and by applying the right hand rule from r to F, we get the clockwise direction. The torque in clockwise direction is negative(-). Therefore, the sign would be -.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

increase the strength of the magnetic field when current flows through the circuit

She can change the arrows so they show current traveling in opposite directions on the sides of the loop.

halfway between the like poles of two magnets, because the field lines bend away and do not enter this area

A generator converts kinetic energy to electrical energy, and a motor converts electrical energy to kinetic energy.

A switch is closed, so the circuit would be complete and unbroken and the lights in the circuit would shine.
