explain why the impact of one heavy stone would produce waves with higher amplitude than the impact of the light stone would
DerKrebs [107]
The heavy stone would produce waves with a higher amplitude, rather than the smaller stone, because since the stone is heaver its going to have a grater impact and displace more water to create a bigger wave.

You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly
Viefleur [7K]

A bathroom scales works due to gravity. Under normal conditions, a reading can be obtained when your body is pushing some force on the scale. However in this case, since you and the scale are both moving downwards, so your body is no longer pushing on the scale. Therefore the answer is:

<span>The reading will drop to 0 instantly</span>

1) A capacitor consists of two metal surfaces separated by an electrical insulator with no electrically conductive path through
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Current flows in a resistor-capacitor circuit because of the varying electric field across the plates of a capacitor induced by an AC voltage source <em>(displacement current)</em>

Explanation:

In a capacitor, current does not flow the same way it does in a circuit, that is through conduction. This is because there is a highly resistive material in between the plates of the capacitor. Rather current flows through a phenomenon called displacement current.

Because of change in charge accumulation with time above the plates, the electric field changes causing the displacement current.

Displacement current arises due to the flow of electrons as a result of the varying magnetic fields set up on the plates of the capacitor when supplied with an AC voltage. It is important to note that a DC voltage does not induce any displacement current.

<em>Through this, phenomenon discovered by Maxwell,  current is able to flow in a resistor-capacitor circuit despite the absence of an electrically conductive path through the plates.</em>

If Emily throws the ball at an angle of 30∘ below the horizontal with a speed of 14m/s, how far from the base of the dorm should
liubo4ka [24]

Emily throws the ball at 30 degree below the horizontal

so here the speed is 14 m/s and hence we will find its horizontal and vertical components

v_x = 14 cos30 = 12.12 m/s

v_y = 14 sin30 = 7 m/s

vertical distance between them

\delta y = 4 m

now we will use kinematics in order to find the time taken by the ball to reach at Allison

\delat y = v_y *t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

here acceleration is due to gravity

a = 9.8 m/s^2

now we will have

4 = 7 * t + \frac{1}{2}*9.8 * t^2

now solving above quadratic equation we have

t = 0.44 s

now in order to find the horizontal distance where ball will fall is given as

d = v_x * t

here it shows that horizontal motion is uniform motion and it is not accelerated so we can use distance = speed * time

d = 12.12 * 0.44 = 5.33 m

so the distance at which Allison is standing to catch the ball will be 5.33 m
