Answer:

Option b. the wave s energy passes from particle to particle.

Explanation:

A wave is an propagation of energy along a medium. Waves need a medium in order for them to travel from one point or another. A wave is a particulate transfer of motion from one point to another. A very good example of the need of a medium is regarding sound. Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. This is because there are no air molecules to transfer the energy of the sound propagation. Hence no sound travels through the vacuum. The particle to particle interaction and vibration results in the transfer of energy in a wave propagation.

Calculate the average charge on arginine when ph=9.20. (hint : find the average charge for each ionizable group and sum these to
weqwewe [10]
Arginine is a basic aminoacid, because it has two amino groups and one acid group. At a low pH, every ionizable group is protoned. At a little higher pH, the acid group looses its proton. A little higher pH, one amino group looses its proton. At a very high pH, all ionizable groups are not protoned.

Pkas

<span> <span><span> <span> pka1 = 1.82 </span> <span> pka2 = 8.99 </span> <span> pka3 = 12.48 </span> </span> </span></span> So 9.20 is higher tan the second pKa and lower than the third pka. This means the acid has already lost its proton, and one of the aminos too, but the second amino hasn’t. When an acid is not protoned, it has a negative charge. When an amino is not protoned, it’s neutral. When an amino is protoned, it has a positive charge. So this amnino acid has one positive charge (one of the aminos) and one negative charge (the acid), what makes it neutral.

An airplane flying parallel to the ground undergoes two consecutive dis- placements. The first is 75 km 30.0° west of north, and
torisob [31]

Answer: displacement of airplane is 172 km in direction 34.2 degrees East of North

Explanation:

In constructing the two displacements it is noticed that the angle between the 75 km vector and the 155 km vector is a right angle (90 degrees).

 

Hence if the plane starts out at A, it travels to B, 75 km away, then turns 90 degrees to the right (clockwise) and travels to C, 155 km away from B. Angle ABC is 90 degrees, hence we can use Pythagoras theorem to solve for AC

 

AC2 = AB2 + BC2 ; AC^2 = 752 + 1552  ; from this we get AC = 172 km (3 significant figures)

 

Angle BAC = Tan-1(155/75) ; giving angle BAC = 64.2 degrees

 

Hence AC is in a direction (64.2 - 30) = 34.2 degrees East of North

 

Therefore the displacement of the airplane is 172 km in a direction 34.2 degrees East of North

A 1.0 kg block is attached to an unstretched
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Change in  potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system between Figure 1 and Figure 2 = 1 Nm.

Explanation:

Here, spring constant, k  = 50 N/m.

given block comes down eventually 0.2 m below.

here, g = 10 m/s.

let block be at a height h above the ground in figure 1.

⇒In figure 2, potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system = m×g×(h - 0.2) + 1/2× k × x². where, x = change in spring length.

⇒ Change in  potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system between Figure 1 and Figure 2 = (m×g×(h - 0.2)) - (1/2× k × x²)

              =  (1×10×0.2) - (1/2×50×0.2×0.2) = 1 Nm.
