Answer: The correct option is (A).

Explanation:

Reflection: It is the phenomenon in which the light rays bounce back from the surface without getting transmit.

Refraction: It is the phenomenon in which light ray gets bend or change its speed while travelling from one medium to the another due to change in the speed of light.

In the given problem, Serena draws a diagram  to compare when the rays hit a boundary and are either reflected or refracted.

In the given diagram, the part X represents the reflection and the part Z represents the refraction. The part Y in the diagram represents similarities between reflection and refraction.

Therefore, the labels belong in the area marked X,Y and Z in the given diagram represents as follows;

A. X: ray bounces off a boundary and maintains constant speed  

Y: ray changes direction  

Z: ray passes through a boundary and changes speed

Answer:

circuit sketched in first attached image.

Second attached image is for calculating the equivalent output resistance

Explanation:

For calculating the output voltage with regarding the first image.

Vout = Vin \frac{R_{2}}{R_{2}+R_{1}}

Vout = 5 \frac{2000}{5000}[/[tex][tex]Vout = 5 \frac{2000}{5000}\\Vout = 5 \frac{2}{5} = 2 V

For the calculus of the equivalent output resistance we apply thevenin, the voltage source is short and current sources are open circuit, resulting in the second image.

so.

R_{out} = R_{2} || R_{1}\\R_{out} = 2000||3000 = \frac{2000*3000}{2000+3000} = 1200

Taking into account the %5 tolerance, with the minimal bound for Voltage and resistance.  

if the -5% is applied to both resistors the Voltage is still 5V because the quotient  has 5% / 5% so it cancels. to be more logic it applies the 5% just to one resistor, the resistor in this case we choose 2k but the essential is to show that the resistors usually don't have the same value. applying to the 2k resistor we have:

Vout = 5 \frac{1900}{4900}\\Vout = 5 \frac{19}{49} = 1.93 V

Vout = 5 \frac{2100}{5100}\\Vout = 5 \frac{21}{51} = 2.05 V

R_{out} = R_{2} || R_{1}\\R_{out} = 1900||2850= \frac{1900*2850}{1900+2850} = 1140

R_{out} = R_{2} || R_{1}\\R_{out} = 2100||3150 = \frac{2100*3150 }{2100+3150 } = 1260

so.

V_{out} = {1.93,2.05}V\\R_{1} = {1900,2100}\\R_{2} = {2850,3150}\\R_{out} = {1140,1260}

Electric current in a solid metal conductor is caused by the movement of what ?
Vlad1618 [11]
Electric current in a solid metal conductor is caused by the movement of electric charge. An electric current is the flow of electric charge. An electron current, the flow of electrons, contributes to an electric current since the electron 'carries' negative electric charge. The flow of ions also contributes to an electric current in, for example, the electrolyte of an electrochemical cell.

You know that you sound better when you sing in the shower. This has to do with the amplification of frequencies that correspond
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a) L = 0.75m   f₁ = 113.33 Hz , f₃ = 340 Hz, b) L=1.50m   f₁ = 56.67 Hz ,  f₃ = 170 Hz

Explanation:

This resonant system can be simulated by a system with a closed end, the tile wall and an open end where it is being sung

In this configuration we have a node at the closed end and a belly at the open end whereby the wavelength

With 1  node         λ₁ = 4 L

With 2 nodes      λ₂ = 4L / 3

With 3 nodes       λ₃ = 4L / 5

The general term would be      λ_n= 4L / n         n = 1, 3, 5, ((2n + 1)

The speed of sound is

         v = λ f

         f = v / λ

         f = v  n / 4L

Let's consider each length independently

L = 0.75 m

        f₁ = 340 1/4 0.75 = 113.33 n

         f₁ = 113.33 Hz

        f₃ = 113.33   3

       f₃ = 340 Hz

L = 1.5 m

       f₁ = 340 n / 4 1.5 = 56.67 n

       f₁ = 56.67 Hz

       f₃ = 56.67 3

       f₃ = 170 Hz
