<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

A) the resting position of the wave

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one point which is the source to another, and this involves transfer of energy through a material medium.
  • <em><u>Equilibrium refers to a state of balance between opposing forces, it is a state of balance in which opposing forces cancel one another. </u></em>
  • <em><u>When wave is in rest position its called equilibrium position of a wave. When a wave travels through a material medium, the particles in the medium are disturbed from their resting, or equilibrium positions.</u></em>

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

0.3677181864 m

Explanation:

u = Velocity = 1.5 m/s

\theta = Angle = 20°

y = -20 cm

Velocity components

u_x=ucos\theta\\\Rightarrow u_x=1.5cos20\\\Rightarrow u_x=1.40953\ m/s

u_y=usin\theta\\\Rightarrow u_y=1.5sin20\\\Rightarrow u_y=0.51303\ m/s

Acceleration components

a_x=0

a_y=-9.81\ m/s^2

y=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\Rightarrow -0.2=0.51303\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times -9.81t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.905t^2-0.51303t-0.2=0

t=\frac{-\left(-0.51303\right)+\sqrt{\left(-0.51303\right)^2-4\cdot \:4.905\left(-0.2\right)}}{2\cdot \:4.905}, \frac{-\left(-0.51303\right)-\sqrt{\left(-0.51303\right)^2-4\cdot \:4.905\left(-0.2\right)}}{2\cdot \:4.905}\\\Rightarrow t=0.26088, -0.15629

Time taken is 0.26088 seconds

x=u_xt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_xt^2\\\Rightarrow x=1.40953\times 0.26088\\\Rightarrow x=0.3677181864\ m

The distance the beetle travels on the ground is 0.3677181864 m

Suppose you are myopic (nearsighted). You can clearly focus on objects that are as far away as 52.5 cm away. You can clearly foc
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Image of distant object will be made at far point or at 52.5 so

object distance u = infinity

image distance v = - 52.5 cm

focal length required = f

Lens formula

1 / v - 1 / u = 1 / f

1 /  - 52.5 - 0 = 1 / f

f =  -52.5 cm

= -.525 m

Power P = 1 / f = -  1 / .525

= -  1.90

now , for eye with glass we shall find new near point .

v = ?

u = - 17.2 cm

f = -  52.5 cm

1 / v - 1 / u = 1 / f

  1 / v + 1 / 17.2 = -  1 / 52.5

1 / v  = - 1 / 17.2 -    1 / 52.5

= - .05813 -  .019

= - .07713

u = - 12.96 cm

so new near point will be 12.96 cm

A photon is scattered from an initially stationary electron within a metal. How does the frequency of the photon change upon sca
sammy [17]

Answer:

The frequency of the photon decreases upon scattering

Explanation:

Here we note that when a photon is scattered by a charged particle, it is referred to as Compton scattering.

Compton scattering results in a reduction of the energy of the photon and hence an increase in the wavelength (from λ to λ') of the photon known as Compton effect.

Therefore, since the wavelength increases, we have from

λf = λ'f' = c

f = c/λ

Where:

f and f' = The frequency of the motion of the photon before and after the scattering

c = Speed of light (constant)

We have that the frequency, f, is inversely proportional to the wavelength, λ as follows;

f = c/λ

As λ = increases, and c is constant, f decreases, therefore, the frequency of the photon decreases upon scattering.

Two friends, barbara and neil, are out rollerblading. with respect to the ground, barbara is skating due south at a speed of 5.9
Semmy [17]
<span>As seen by Barbara, Neil is traveling at a velocity of 6.1 m/s at and angle of 76.7 degrees north from due west. Let's assume that both Barbara and Neil start out at coordinate (0,0) and skate for exactly 1 second. Where do they end up? Barbara is going due south at 5.9 m/s, so she's at (0,-5.9) Neil is going due west at 1.4 m/s, so he's at (-1.4,0) Now to see Neil's relative motion to Barbara, compute a translation that will place Barbara back at (0,0) and apply that same translation to Neil. Adding (0,5.9) to their coordinates will do this. So the translated coordinates for Neil is now (-1.4, 5.9) and Barbara is at (0,0). The magnitude of Neil's velocity as seen by Barbara is sqrt((-1.4)^2 + 5.9^2) = sqrt(1.96 + 34.81) = sqrt(36.77) = 6.1 m/s The angle of his vector relative to due west will be atan(5.9/1.4) = atan(4.214285714) = 76.7 degrees So as seen by Barbara, Neil is traveling at a velocity of 6.1 m/s at and angle of 76.7 degrees north from due west.</span>
