Explanation:
We hammer the broader side of a nail instead of its sharp end to put it in wood. It is a concept based on the pressure exerted.
The force acting per unit area of an object is called pressure exerted. It means that pressure is inversely proportional to the area of cross section i.e. area increases, pressure decreases and vice versa.
The broader side of a nail has more area as compared to the sharp end. It means that the broader side will exert less pressure on them which make it easier for us to fix it into the wood.
Can someone please illustrate how the refracted ray will look like?
Answer
As the angle of incidence increases in Figure 2.8, a point is finally reached where the refracted ray does not emerge at the second layer but lie along the interface. This particular angle of incidence at which the angle of refraction is 90° and the refracted ray lies along the interface is known as the critical angle. At and beyond the critical angle, there is no transmitted ray and therefore a very high reflected ray will be recorded .
Therefore,
sinθisin90=Vp1Vp2
But, sin 90 = 1.
At critical angle,
sinθcritical=Vp1Vp2
A critical refracted wave travels along the interface between layers and is refracted back into the upper layer at the critical angle. The waves refracted back into the upper layer are called head waves or first-break refractions because at certain distances from a source, they are the first arriving energy. Recorded first-break refraction is shown in Figure 2.10.
Note that these first-break refractions can give us important information about the shallow velocities on land seismic data.
Note also that seismic data are acquired in such a way that reflections from horizons of interest are in the pre-critical region, even at the farthest offset in the data.
In reality, part of the seismic energy arriving at an interface is transmitted and refracted, and another part of the energy is reflected at that same interface. Given that there are many reflectors in the subsurface, there will be many paths from source to receiver, each of them with a different travel time. The proportion of energy reflected depends on the material properties of the two bounding layers and on the angle of incidence
The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of interacting objects does not change . This means the total momentum a collision or explosion is equal to the total momentum a collision or explosion.what is momentum
Answer:
The momentum of an object is equal to the product of its mass and its velocity.
Explanation:
Consider an object of mass [tex]m[/tex] travelling at a velocity [tex]\vec{v}[/tex]. The momentum [tex]\vec{p}[/tex] of this object would be:
[tex]\vec{p} = m \cdot \vec{v}[/tex].
For the law of conservation of momentum, consider two objects: object [tex]\rm a[/tex] and object [tex]\rm b[/tex]. Assume that these two objects collided with each other.
Let [tex]m_{\rm a}[/tex] and [tex]m_{\rm b}[/tex] denote the mass of the two objects. Let [tex]\vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{initial})[/tex] and [tex]\vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{initial})[/tex] denote the velocity of the two object right before the interaction. Let [tex]\vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{final})[/tex] and [tex]\vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{final})[/tex] denote the velocity of the two objects right after the interaction. The momentum of the two objects right before the collision would be [tex]m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{initial})[/tex] and [tex]m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{initial})[/tex], respectively. The momentum of the two objects right after the collision would be [tex]m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{final})[/tex] and [tex]m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{final})[/tex], respectively.The sum of the momentum of the two objects would be:
[tex]m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{initial}) + m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{initial})[/tex] right before the collision, and[tex]m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{final}) + m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{final})[/tex] right after the collision.Assume that the system of these two objects is isolated. By the law of conservation of momentum, the sum of the momentum of these two objects should be the same before and after the collision. That is:
[tex]m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{initial}) + m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{initial}) = m_{\rm a}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm a}(\text{final}) + m_{\rm b}\cdot \vec{v}_{\rm b}(\text{final})[/tex].
A person holds a 25 kg (250 newton) bag of cement over his head and moves it a distance of 10 m, taking 2 minutes, while another person carries it on a wheelbarrow that same distance, taking 1 minute.Who does more work ? What is the power of each person?
Explanation:
Assuming the 10 m distance is the vertical displacement, the work done by both people is the same.
Work = force × distance
W = (250 N) (10 m)
W = 2500 J
The power of the first person is:
Power = work / time
P = 2500 J / 120 s
P = 20.83 W
The power of the second person is:
P = 2500 J / 60 s
P = 41.67 W

Explanation:
in the derivation of the time period of a pendulum in electric field when considering the fbd of bob to find the g effective why do we neglect tension
Answer:
we learned that an object that is vibrating is acted upon by a restoring force. The restoring force causes the vibrating object to slow down as it moves away from the equilibrium position and to speed up as it approaches the equilibrium position. It is this restoring force that is responsible for the vibration. So what forces act upon a pendulum bob? And what is the restoring force for a pendulum? There are two dominant forces acting upon a pendulum bob at all times during the course of its motion. There is the force of gravity that acts downward upon the bob. It results from the Earth's mass attracting the mass of the bob. And there is a tension force acting upward and towards the pivot point of the pendulum. The tension force results from the string pulling upon the bob of the pendulum. In our discussion, we will ignore the influence of air resistance - a third force that always opposes the motion of the bob as it swings to and fro. The air resistance force is relatively weak compared to the two dominant forces.
The gravity force is highly predictable; it is always in the same direction (down) and always of the same magnitude - mass*9.8 N/kg. The tension force is considerably less predictable. Both its direction and its magnitude change as the bob swings to and fro. The direction of the tension force is always towards the pivot point. So as the bob swings to the left of its equilibrium position, the tension force is at an angle - directed upwards and to the right. And as the bob swings to the right of its equilibrium position, the tension is directed upwards and to the left. The diagram below depicts the direction of these two forces at five different positions over the course of the pendulum's path.

If 60 L of a gas are at 4 atm and 27 C °, what pressure would it have if the volume is 40 L 127 C °?
Answer:
8 atm
Explanation:
Ideal gas law:
PV = nRT
where P is pressure, V is volume, n is moles, R is universal gas constant, and T is absolute temperature.
If n is constant:
PV / T = PV / T
(4 atm) (60 L) / (27 + 273) K = P (40 L) / (127 + 273) K
0.8 atm = 0.1 P
P = 8 atm

*If someone says v-u=0 ,what does it mean. *What is the relation among mometum,mass and velocity. *A moving bus a little distance forward even when breaks are applied on it which Newton's laws work here? *Under what conditions acceleration of a moving object will be zero?
Answer:
1) It means that the acceleration is 0
2) Momentum, p = Mass, m × Velocity, v
3) Newton's second law of motion
4) The conditions where there are no resultant forces acting on the object
Explanation:
1) The value v - u = 0 means that the acceleration is 0
The relation between v and u is v = u + a·t
v - u = a·t
When v - u = 0 we have;
a·t = 0
a = 0 or t = 0
Acceleration, a = 0
2) The relation between momentum, mass and velocity is
Momentum, p = Mass, m × Velocity, v
p = m × v
3) The bus moving a little distance forward even when the breaks are applied is due to the following relation;
Force = Rate of change of momentum produced
Which is Newton's second law of motion
Therefore, where the the force is low, the rate of change of the momentum and therefore, the velocity will be low, and the bus will still move further after applying the breaks
4) According to Newton's first law of motion, the conditions under which the acceleration of a moving object will be zero includes conditions where there are no resultant forces acting on the object.

(Choice B) B The total displacement of the trip is 300 miles. (Choice C) C The average speed is 37.5 miles per hour. (Choice D) D The car travels at 50 mph for the first half and 30 mph for the second half.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Given that a car travels from point A to B in 3 hours and returns back to point A in 5 hours. Points A and B are 150 miles apart along a straight highway.
From point A to B
The speed = distance / time
Where
Distance = 150 mile
Time = 3 hours
Substitute the values into the formula
Speed = 150/3 = 50 mile/ hours
From Point B to Point A
Distance = 150 miles
Time = 5 hours
Where speed = distance/ time
substitute all the parameters into the formula
Speed = 150/5 = 30 mph
Therefore, The car travels at 50 mph for the first half and 30 mph for the second half.

Answer:
D:rarefactions and compressions
Explanation:
Longitudinal waves are readily formed in materials such as a stretched spring. Longitudinal waves are waves which travel in a direction parallel to the vibrations of the medium.
Longitudinal waves are characterized by a series of compressions and rarefactions. The compressions are areas of clusters while rarefactions are areas of expansions. The same can be observed in a sound wave.
When light travels from air into water, Group of answer choices its wavelength changes, but its velocity and frequency does not change its velocity remains constant, but its frequency and wavelength changes its velocity, wavelength and frequency all change its velocity and wavelength changes, but its frequency does not change
Answer:
its velocity, wavelength and frequency all change
Explanation:
Whenever a wave crosses the boundary between two media of different densities, its velocity, frequency and wavelength changes. This appears as a bending of the wave as it crosses the boundary from one medium to another.
Refraction is a fundamental property of waves. Hence when light is travelling from air into water, it wavelength, speed and frequency all changes at the interface between the two media.
A narrow beam of light containing red (660 nm) and blue (470 nm) wavelengths travels from air through a 1.00 cm thick flat piece of crown glass and back to air again. The beam strikes at an incident angle of 30 degrees. (a) At what angles do the two colors emerge
Answer:
The color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.
Explanation:
The angle at which the two colors emerge can be calculated using the Snell's Law:
[tex]n_{1}sin(\theta_{1}) = n_{2}sin(\theta_{2})[/tex]
Where:
n₁ is the refractive index of the incident medium (air) = 1.0003
n₂ is the refractive index of the refractive medium:
blue light in crown glass = 1.524
red light in crown glass = 1.512
θ₁ is the angle of the incident light = 30°
θ₂ is the angle of the refracted light
For the red wavelengths we have:
[tex] \theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.512}) = 19.32 ^{\circ} [/tex]
For the blue wavelengths we have:
[tex] \theta_{2} = arcsin(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}}) = arcsin(\frac{1.0003*sin(30)}{1.524}) = 19.16 ^{\circ} [/tex]
Therefore, the color blue emerges at 19.16° and the color red emerges at 19.32°.

the distance between two successive troughs of wave is 0.4m. If the frequency of the source is 825Hz, calculate the speed of the wave
Answer:
speed=330m/s
Explanation:
the speed of wave is given as
speed(meter per second) =frequency(hertz) * wavelength(meters)
so using the above formula we substitute the figures given in the question in the formula we get
speed = 0.4*825
speed =330m/s
note m/s is the si unit for speed which is read as meter per second
therefore speed =330m/s

The position vector is given by vector r= 5t² I cap + 2 t³ j cap + 2 k cap. Find it's velocity and acceleration at t=2s.
Answer:
We have the position vector given in terms of time t. r(t) = t^3*i + t^2*j
To find the velocity vector we have to differentiate r(t) with respect to time.
r'(t) = 3t^2*i + 2t*j
The vector representing acceleration is the derivative of the position vector
r''(t) = 6t*i + 2*j
When time t = 2.
The velocity vector is 3*2^2*i + 2*2*j
=> 12*i + 4*j
The speed is the absolute value of the velocity vector or sqrt(12^2 + 4^2) = sqrt (144 + 16) = sqrt 160
The acceleration vector is 6*2*i + 2*j
=> 12*i + 2*j
The required acceleration at t=2 is 12*i + 2*j and the speed is sqrt 160.
