Answer:

person when the point-light walker is moving

Explanation:

A point light walker is an arrangement of dots that moves in a way that mimics a human walking. This is used in the field of Biological Motion Perception.

Biological motion perception is the science that deals with how our brain perceives motion. In order to understand how the brain perceives motion a point light walker is used.

1) The relationship in between the electrical energy carriesd by the transmission wires and the amount of the heat loss in it is due to the reason that when the electricity is flown through the wires there are some resistance found in these wires which creates a disturbance in the efficient flow of electricty.Also we know that current have an heating effect when it is in motion as due to if a large amount or magnitude of electricity is flown through the transmission wires it will carry a larger heat effected and also due to the resistance is provided by the wires and so the process of heat loss takes place.

2)It is important to minimize current in transmission wires due to minimize the heat loss and resistance on flowing electric current to make the system more efficient 

 3)Given Resistance = 250 ohms 

Electric potential = 150 volts 

so we know Power = 

volt^2/Resistance = 

=(150^2/250)(ohms/volts)

=(22500/250)watt = 90 watt 

4)Heat energy (H) = Power(P)×Time(t)

4)Heat energy (H) = Power(P)×Time(t)= (90×2)joules = 180 joules

Which is the resulting direction of a surface wave

Sliva [168]

In a surface wave (like water) the water goes up and down, but the wave travels across (parallel to) the surface.

Which is the BEST definition of refraction? A) Light or sound waves change direction. B) Light or sound waves bounce off a mediu

melisa1 [442]

The answer to this is A. this is because, refraction with a light or sound wave changing its direction involve propagation,(in which propagation is the change in direction of a light or sound wave)

Radio waves are readily diffracted around buildings, whereas light waves are negligibly diffracted around buildings. This is bec

Tom [10]

Answer:

Radio waves have longer wavelength

Explanation:

Radio wave is an electromagnetic frequency that has the ability to travel through long distance. They have frequencies shuttling been the range of 10^4 hz and a frequency of 10^12 hz

Light wave is also called visible light. This is because it is visible to the naked eye, despite it being in the electromagnetic spectrum. It's frequency is usually between 4*10^-7 hz and a frequency of 7*10^-7 hz.

As can be seen from both, the radio waves length are quite far stronger than that of the light waves.
