Answer:

1. Light is electromagnetic waves while sound is mechanical.

Light wave is transverse and sound is longitudinal.

Explanation:

<i = <r

when distance between source and obstacle and distance between obstacle and screen is finite then the diffraction is fresnal diffraction

when distance between source and obstacle and distance between obstacle and screen is infinite then the diffraction is Fraunhofer's diffraction

A 4.40-m-long, 500 kg steel uniform beam extends horizontally from the point where it has been bolted to the framework of a new

icang [17]

Answer:

Torque=13798.4 N.m

Explanation:

Given data

Mass of beam m₁=500 kg

Mass of the person m₂=70 kg

length of steel r₁=4.40m

center of gravity of the beam is at r₂=r₁/2 =4.40/2 = 2.20m

To find

Torque

Solution

Torque due to beam own weight

$T_{1}=m_{1}gr_{1}\\ T_{1}=500*2.2*9.8\\T_{1}=10780N.m$

Torque due to person

$T_{2}=m_{2}r_{2}g\\T_{2}=70*(4.40)*(9.8)\\T_{2}=3018.4 N.m$

Now for total torque

$T_{total}=T_{1}+T_{2}\\T_{total}=10780+3018.4\\T_{total}=13798.4N.m$

A thin, metallic spherical shell of radius 0.187 m has a total charge of 6.53×10−6 C placed on it. A point charge of 5.15×10−6 C

MAVERICK [17]

Answer: a) 112.88 * 10^3 N/C; b) The electric field point outward from the center of the sphere.

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the gaussian law so we use a gaussian surface at r=0.965 m and the electric flux is equal to Q inside/εo

E* 4*π*r^2= Q inside/εo

E= k*Q inside/r^2= 9*10^9*(6.53+5.15)μC/(0.965)^2=122.88 * 10 ^3 N/C

Two tiny, spherical water drops, with identical charges of −8.00 ✕ 10^(−17) C, have a center-to-center separation of 2.00 cm.

Damm [24]

Answer:

F=1.4384×10⁻¹⁹N

Explanation:

Given Data

Charge q= -8.00×10⁻¹⁷C

Distance r=2.00 cm=0.02 m

To find

Electrostatic force

Solution

The electrostatic force between between them can be calculated from Coulombs law as

$F=\frac{kq^{2} }{r^{2} }$

Substitute the given values we get

$F=\frac{(8.99*10^{9} )*(-8.00*10^{-17} )^{2} }{(0.02)^{2} }\\ F=1.4384*10^{-19} N$
