Answer:

Explanation:

Prism is a glass object that is used to study the pattern of refraction.

During this experiment it is not advised to used small values of incident angle , as when a small amount of incident ray is passed the refracted pattern observed at the end will not provide satisfactory results.

The amount of light that comes out of prism which is the refracted light will also be small hence study of complete refracted pattern will not be possible.

The small incident angle will give rise to more errors in measurement.

Two sinusoidal waves travel along the same string. They have the same wavelength and frequency. Their amplitudes are ym1 = 2.5 m
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

0.5 m

Explanation:

Givens:

ym1 = 2.5 mm

ym2 = 4.5 mm

Ф_1=π / 4

Ф_2=π / 2

We have 2 ways to solve this problem. The first one given that the 2 waves have the frequency then we know that the resultant wave amplitude is

Ym = (ym1 + ym2)cos(Ф_2/2)

By substitution we have  

Ym= (0.025 + 0.045)cos(π/4) = 0.496 m

The second one is it treat them as Phasors where the phase between them is Ф_2=π / 2 Therefore  

Ym^2=(ym1^2+ym2^2)

So we have Ym=√0.025^2+0.045^2

                         = 0.5 m

The velocity versus time graph of particle A is tangent to the velocity versus time graph for particle B at point O. What is the
lara [203]
As velocities are tangent, the value of both Particle A and Particle B would be same for that point O (Intersecting point)

a = v / t
Here, v = 7, t = 6
So, a = 7/6
a = 1.17 
As the graph is decreasing, value of acceleration would be negative.
So, a = -1.17 m/s²

In short, Your Answer would be Option C

Hope this helps!

If a 1,300 kg car with no people inside is on the edge of a cliff 1,500 m above the ground, what is its potential energy?
Ghella [55]

<u>Given that</u>

mass (m) = 1300 Kg ,

height (h) = 1500 m

Determine the potential energy ?

     P.E = m × g × h

           = 1300 × 9.81 × 1500

           = 19129500  Joules

           = 19129.5 KJ

Some hydrogen gas is enclosed within a chamber being held at 200∘c with a volume of 0.0250 m3. the chamber is fitted with a mova
Mrac [35]

Answer: The final volume V₂ of the container is  0.039 m³.

Explanation:

Since the temperature is constant, the gas would expand isothermally.

For isothermal expansion,

P₁V₁=P₂V₂

Where, P₁ and P₂ are the initial and final pressure and V₁ and V₂ are initial and final volume.

It is given that:

V₁ = 0.0250 m³

P₁ = 1.5 × 10⁶ Pa

P₂ = 0.950 × 10⁶ Pa

V₂ = ?

⇒ 1.5 × 10⁶ Pa × 0.0250 m³ = 0.950 × 10⁶ Pa × V₂

⇒V₂ = 0.039 m³

Hence, the final volume V₂ of the container is  0.039 m³.

A baseball pitcher brings his arm forward during a pitch, rotating the forearm about the elbow. If the velocity of the ball in t
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

D) 117 rad/s

Explanation:

We can treat this system as a circular motion where the origin is the elbow joint, the ball rotation velocity v is 35 m/s, the rotation radius is r = 0.3m.

As the ball is leaving the pitcher hand at such speed and rotation radius. Its angular velocity is:

\omega = \frac{v}{r} = \frac{35}{0.3} = 117 rad/s
