Bats use a process called echolocation to find their food. This involves giving out sound waves that hit possible prey or food.

When the waves hit an object, they bounce back to the bat, allowing the bat to locate its prey. What type of wave interaction is echolocation?

The type of waves used by bats are sound waves. Most of the species use their larynx to produce ultrasound waves in the frequency range of 20 to 200 kilohertz.
These sound waves are echoed, reflected, by surroundings, in this case food or prey. These reflections are received by the specialized receptor cells in the ears of bats. The reflections are analyzed by the brain to make an image.
Fun fact: The brain cells of bats are also specialized to better analyze the frequency of ultrasound used by the bat.

Complete Question

  The complete Question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

The torque acting on the particle is  \tau = 48t \r k

b

The magnitude of the angular momentum increases relative to the origin

Explanation:

From the equation we are told that

      The position of the particle is   \= r = 4.0 t^2 \r i - (2.0 t - 6.0 t^2 ) \r j

       The mass of the particle is m = 3.0 kg

        The time is  t

   

The torque acting on  the particle is mathematically represented as

           \tau = \frac{ d \r l }{dt}

where \r l is change in angular momentum which is mathematically represented as

       \r l = m (\r r \ \ X  \ \ \r v)

Where X mean cross- product

   \r v is the velocity which is mathematically represented as

           \r v = \frac{d \r r }{dt}

Substituting for  \r r

           \r v = \frac{d }{dt} [ 4 t^2 \r i - (2t + 6t^2 ) \r j]

           \r v =  8t \r i - (2 + 12 t) \r j

Now the cross product of \r r \ and \ \r v is  mathematically evaluated as    

          \r r  \  \ X \ \ \r v = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}{\r i}&{\r j}&{\r k}\\{4t^2}&{-2t -6t^2}&0\\{8t}&{-2 -12t}&0\end{array}\right]

                       = 0 \r i + 0 \r j + (- 8t^2 -48t^3 + 16t^2 + 48t^3 ) \r k

                      \r r \ \  X \ \ \r v = 8t^2 \r k

So the angular momentum becomes

       \r l = m (8t^2 \r k)

Substituting for m

      \r l = 3 *  (8t^2 \r k)

      \r l =24t^2  \r k

Substituting into equation for torque

       \tau = \frac{d}{dt} [24t^2 \r k]

       \tau = 48t \r k

The magnitude of the angular momentum can be evaluated mathematically as

        |\r l| = \sqrt{(24 t^2) ^2}

        |\r l| = 24 t^2

From the is equation we see that the magnitude of the angular momentum is varies directly with square of the time so it would relative to the origin because at the origin t= 0s and we move out from origin t increases hence angular momentum increases also

A two-resistor voltage divider employing a 2-k? and a 3-k? resistor is connected to a 5-V ground-referenced power supply to prov
vesna_86 [32]

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}

(1 point) Which of the following statements are true?A.The equation Ax=b is referred to as a vector equation.B.If the augmented
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

A. False

B. False

C. True

D. True

E. True

F. True

Explanation:

A. The equation Ax=b is referred to as a matrix equation and not vector equation.

B. If the augmented matrix [ A b ] has a pivot position in every​ row then equation Ax=b may or may not be consistent. It is inconsistent if [A b] has a pivot in the last column b and it is consistent if the matrix A has a pivot in every row.

C. In the product of Ax also called the dot product the first entry is a sum of products. For example the the product of Ax where A has [a11 a12 a13] in the first entry of each column and the corresponding entries in x are [x1 x2 x3] then the first entry in the product is the sum of products i.e.  a11x1 + a12x2 +a13x3

D. If the columns of mxn matrix A span R^m, this states that every possible vector b in R^m is a linear combination of the columns which makes the equation consistent. So the equation Ax=b has at least one solution for each b in R^m.

E. It is stated that a vector equation x1a1 + x2a2 + x3a3 + ... + xnan = b has the same solution set as that of the linear system with augmented matrix [a1 a2 ... an b]. So the solution set of linear system whose augmented matrix is [a1 a2 a3 b] is the same as solution set of Ax=b if A=[a1 a2 a3]  and b can be produced by linear combination of a1 a2 a3 iff the solution of linear system corresponding to [a1 a2 a3 b] takes place.

F.  It is true because lets say b is a vector in R^m which is not in the span of  the columns. b cannot be obtained for some x which belongs to R^m as b = Ax. So Ax=b is inconsistent for some b in R^m and has no solution.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer: 14.52*10^6 m/s

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider the energy conservation for the electron within the coaxial cylidrical wire.

the change in potential energy for the electron; e*ΔV is  equal to energy kinetic gained for the electron so:

e*ΔV=1/2*m*v^2  v^=(2*e*ΔV/m)^1/2= (2*1.6*10^-19*600/9.1*10^-31)^1/2=14.52 *10^6 m/s

Which of the following characteristics of Earth's relationship to the Sun explains the existence of Earth's seasons? Choose all
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Earth's axis is tilted relative to its orbital plane.

Earth orbits around the Sun, completing one orbit each year

Explanation:

The earth tilt at an angle causes the sun rays to hit the earth surface around the globe differently. Due to the oblique angle that the rays hit the subtropics and poles, there is less heat intensity compared to the equator where the sun rays hit the earth's surface at a more or less right angle.

The earth rotation around the sun also causes seasons coupled with the earth’s tilts. As the earth rotates, in one point in the orbit, the northern or southern hemispheres will be tilted towards the sun. The phenomenon varies the local temperatures of particular regions of the earth hence driving seasonal climatic changes.
