When rock rises, they decrease in pressure causes hot mantle rock to melt and form magma. In plate tectonics, divergent boundaries occur when plates pull apart.

Answer: volcanoes

Plate tectonics refers to the movement of the lithospheric plates horizontally over the asthenosphere. In divergent plate tectonics two plates slide apart from each other. In a divergent plate boundaries, the separation of plates along with the eruption of hot mantle resulting in the volcanic eruption.

Jasper made a list of the properties of electromagnetic waves. Identify the mistake in the list. Electromagnetic Wave Properties

Nata [24]

Answer:

Statement 2 is wrong

Explanation:

To check the statements in this exercise, let's describe the main properties of electromagnetic waves. Let's describe the characteristics

* they are transverse waves

* formed by the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields

* the speed of the wave is the speed of light

with these concepts let's review the final statements

1) True. Formed by the oscillation of the two fields

2) False. They are transverse waves

3) True. Can travel by vacuum as they are supported by oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields

4) True. They all have the same speed of light

Statement 2 is wrong

One string of a certain musical instrument is 70.0 cm long and has a mass of 8.79 g . It is being played in a room where the spe

Svetach [21]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of linear mass density, and the expression of the wavelength with which we can find the frequency of the string. With these values it will be possible to find the voltage value. Later we will apply concepts related to harmonic waves in order to find the fundamental frequency.

The linear mass density is given as,

$\mu = \frac{m}{l}$

$\mu = \frac{8.79*10^{-3}}{70*10^{-2}}$

$\mu = 0.01255kg/m$

The expression for the wavelength of the standing wave for the second overtone is

$\lambda = \frac{2}{3} l$

Replacing we have

$\lambda = \frac{2}{3} (70*10^{-2})$

$\lambda = 0.466m$

The frequency of the sound wave is

$f_s = \frac{v}{\lambda_s}$

$f_s = \frac{344}{0.768}$

$f_s = 448Hz$

Now the velocity of the wave would be

$v = f_s \lambda$

$v = (448)(0.466)$

$v = 208.768m/s$

The expression that relates the velocity of the wave, tension on the string and linear mass density is

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

$v^2 = \frac{T}{\mu}$

$T= \mu v^2$

$T = (0.01255kg/m)(208.768m/s)^2$

$T = 547N$

The tension in the string is 547N

PART B) The relation between the fundamental frequency and the $n^{th}$ harmonic frequency is

$f_n = nf_1$

Overtone is the resonant frequency above the fundamental frequency. The second overtone is the second resonant frequency after the fundamental frequency. Therefore

$n=3$

Then,

$f_3 = 3f_1$

Rearranging to find the fundamental frequency

$f_1 = \frac{f_3}{3}$

$f_1 = \frac{448Hz}{3}$

$f_1 = 149.9Hz$
