what happens when a wave passes through a medium ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

When waves travel from one medium to another the frequency never changes. As waves travel into the denser medium, they slow down and wavelength decreases. Part of the wave travels faster for longer causing the wave to turn. The wave is slower but the wavelength is shorter meaning frequency remains the same.

Explanation:

Semiconductors can simplistically be thought of as an intermediate state between insulators and conductors. In a semiconductor, charges are normally bound in place (like in an insulator), but when injected with enough energy, the charges can move freely (like in a conductor). Given what we have observed about the behavior of conductors and insulators in this exploration, what would happen if we replaced the glass rod with a semiconductor material

Answers

Answer:

The semiconductor rod will conduct electricity

Explanation:

Glass rod does not conduct electricity. Glass is one of the best insulators of electricity. But when a glass rod is replace with a semi conductor, then the semi conductor rod starts conducting electricity as the electrons are free to move.

Semi conductors are special materials in which the energy band lies in between the conductor and the non conductor. The conductivity of a semi conductor increases with the increasing temperature.

In an semi conductor the electrons are free to move and as they starts moving they conduct electricity. Thus a semi conductor rod replacing a glass rod conducts electricity.

b) harged must be positive

c) force ais in the direction of the electric field

d)  force is in the opposite direction to the electric field

e)  force is in the opposite direction to the field

Explanation:

After reading your exercise, it is unfortunate that the diagram did not come out, but we are going to answer the questions in general.

a) force on a charge (+) is zero

this implies that the electric field at point P must be zero

        F = q E

b) the magnitude of the charge on the left is on the right

this indicates that the charged must be positive since the lines must exit the charge

c) force on load directed towards (direction not indicated)

since the charge is positive the force at point L is in the direction of the electric field at this point

d) force on test load (-) does not indicate direction

The force on a negative charge is in the opposite direction to the electric field at point J

e) Force on a test load (-) at point N

the force is in the opposite direction to the field at point N

a body of mass 20kg initially at rest is subjected to a force of 40N for 1sec calculate the change in kinetic energy showing the solution​

Answers

Answer:

Change in KE is 40 J

Explanation:

Recall that the impulse exerted on an object equal the change of momentum of the object (ΔP), which in time is defined as the product of the force exerted on it times the time the force was acting:

Change in momentum is:   ΔP = F * Δt

In our case,

ΔP = 40 N * 1 sec = 40 N s

Since the object was initially at rest, its initial momentum was zero, and the final momentum should then be 40 N s.

So, the initial KE was 0, and the final (KEf) can be calculated using:

KEf = 1 /(2 m) Pf^2 = 1 / (40) 40^2 = 40 J

So, the change in kinetic energy is:

KEf - KEi = 40 J - 0 j = 40 J

cylindrical electric resistance heater has a diameter of 1cm and length of 0.25m. When air at 25oC flows across the heater a heat-transfer coefficient of 25W/(m2 . oC) exists at the surface. (JUSTIFY ANY ASSUMPTIONS YOU IMPOSE!) a) If the electrical input to the heater is 5W, what is the steady state surface temperature of the heater if radiation is assumed negligible

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information given:

The diameter of the cylindrical heater (d) = 1 cm

The length of the cylindrical heater (l) = 0.25 m

The ambient air temperature [tex](T_{\infty})[/tex] = 25° C= (273+25)K = 298 K

The convective heat transfer coefficient (h) = 25 W/m² °C

The electric input Q = 5W

As stated in the question that if radiation is being neglected:-

Let also assume that;

the heat transfer takes place at a steady-state

1-D flow takes place

No external heat generation; &

No force convection takes place;

Then; the heat transfer through the convection can be calculated as:

[tex]Q = hA(T - T_{\infty})[/tex]

[tex]5= 25 \times (\pi \times (1\times 10^{-2}) \times 0.25) (T -0.25)[/tex]

By solving the above calculation:

T ( surface temperature of the heater) = 50.46° C  122.83° F

Answers

Answer:

b. The speed of light is 2.99792458 x 10^8 meters/second.

Explanation:

Speed of light is a universal constant and its value is same throughout the universe . So alien living near Alpha Centauri will quickly understand about it . But other statements are not universal . Mass of electron can vary  as per relativistic formula of Einstein . Similarly , mass of proton can also vary according to relativistic concept . It depends upon the velocity of particle . So, the ratio of mass of proton and mass of electron will also vary from one star to another .

The voltage v(t) = 141.4 cos (ωt) is applied to a load consisting of a 10Ω resistor in parallel with an inductive reactance XL=ωL = 3.77Ω. Calculate the instantaneous power absorbed by the resistor and by the inductor. Also calculate the real and reactive power absorbed by the load, and the power factor. Draw all the voltage, current and power waveforms, also the draw the circuit and phasor diagrams.

Answers

Answer:

A) P(t) = 2651.25 [ 1 - cos2wt ] W

B)  Real power = 999.79 watts

    Reactive power = 2652.86 VA

c) power factor = 0.3526

Explanation:

Given data:

V(t) = 141.4 cos (ωt)

R(t) = 10 Ω

Inductive reactance XL = ωL = 3.77 Ω

Ir(t) = V(t) / R(t) = 14.14

A) Calculate the instantaneous power absorbed by the resistor and by inductor

By resistor :

Pr(t) = V(t) * Ir(t) = 141.4 * 14.14 [tex]cos^{2} wt[/tex] = 1999.396 [tex]cos^{2} wt[/tex]

      hence Pr  = 999.698 (cos2ωt + 1) w

By Inductor :

Pl(t) = V(t) I'L(t) = 141.4 cosωt * 37.5 cos(ωt - 90)  

                        =  5302.5 [tex]sin^2 wt[/tex]

Hence Pl(t) = 5302.5 [tex]sin^2 wt[/tex]   w  =  2651.25 [ 1 - cos2wt ] W

B) calculate the real and reactive power

First we have to determine the power factor

Given that : V(t) = 141.4 cosωt  v ,   Ir(t) = 14.14 cosωt A

IL(t) = 37.5 cos (ωt - 90° )

The phasor representation of the above is :

V = [tex]\frac{141.4}{\sqrt{2} } <0^{0} v[/tex] = 141.4 ∠0° ,  Ir = 10 ∠ 0° , IL = 37. 5 ∠ -90°

Total load current = Ir + IL = 28.35 ∠ -69.35°

power factor = cos -69.35° = 0.3526

Next we will determine the Real and reactive power using the relation below

S = VI = 100 ∠ 0°  * 28.35 ∠ -69.35°

         = 2835 ∠ 69.35°

S = P + jQ = 999.79 + 2652.85 j

Real power  = 999.79 watts

Reactive power = 2652.85 VA

You push each of them (one at a time) with the same constant force, over the same distance, starting from rest. After you have pushed them through this distance, you remove the force. How will the kinetic energy of the loaded and empty carts compare to each other

Answers

Answer:

Their kinetic energies would be the same

Explanation:

This is because, since the force, F acting on them moves the same distance, d, the work done by the force is W = Fd.

Now, from work-kinetic energy principles,

W = ΔK where ΔK = change in kinetic energy of the carts.

Since the work-done is the same for both carts, their change in kinetic energies would also be the same.

Since they start from rest, ΔK = K' - K =  K' - 0 = K'

So, the kinetic energies of the carts would be the same

An object initially traveling in a straight line with
a speed of 5.0 meters per second is accelerated
at 2.0 meters per second squared for 4.0 seconds.
The total distance traveled by the object in the
4.0 seconds is

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that the total distance traveled by the object in the 4 seconds is 36 m.

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity u = 5.0 m/sAcceleration a = 2.0 m/s²Time t = 4 s

To determine

The total distance traveled by the object in the  4.0 seconds is

Important Tip:

We can determine the total distance traveled by the object in the  4.0 seconds by using the equation of motion such as

[tex]s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

where

s = distanceu = initial velocitya = accelerationt = time

substituting u = 5.0, a = 2, and t = 4 in the formula

[tex]s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

[tex]s=\left(5\right)\left(4\right)+\frac{1}{2}\left(2\right)\left(4\right)^2[/tex]

[tex]s=20+16[/tex]

[tex]s=36[/tex] m

Therefore, we conclude that the total distance traveled by the object in the 4 seconds is 36 m.

The total distance traveled by the object is 36 meters.

Given the following data:

Initial velocity = 5.0 m/s Acceleration = 2.0 [tex]m/s^2[/tex] Time = 4.0 seconds.

To find the total distance traveled by the object, we we  would use the second equation of motion.

Mathematically, the second equation of motion is given by the formula;

[tex]S = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

Where:

S is the total distance traveled.

u is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

[tex]S = 5(4) + \frac{1}{2}(2)(4^2)\\\\S = 20 + 1(16)[/tex]

Total distance, S = 36 meters.

Therefore, the total distance traveled by the object is 36 meters.

b. The boundary work performed by the gas.
c. The combined work transfer by the shaft and electricity.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The pressure of the air during the process = [tex]P_{atm} + P_{due \ to \ wt \ of \ piston}[/tex]

[tex]= 101 \ kPa + \dfrac{75 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times \dfrac{1 \ N }{1 \ kg.m/s^2} }{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(0.2 \ m)^2} ( \dfrac{1 \ N }{m^2} \times \dfrac{1 \ kPa}{1000 \ n/m^2})[/tex]

The pressure of the air during the process = 124.42 kPa

The boundary work = P × ΔW

The boundary work = 124.42  kPa × (π/4) × (0.2 m)² × 0.25 m × (1 kJ/1 kPa.m³)

The boundary work = 0.977 kJ

The combined work transfer = [tex]W_{boundary} + \Delta U[/tex]

The combined work transfer = 0.977 + 3.109 kJ

The combined work transfer = 4.086 kJ
