What color is closest to the central maximum? Violet and blue will be seen closer to the central maximum — then green and yellow and orange and finally red, farthest from the white central maximum. a) is a diffraction source. Why is diffraction grating better than a prism? However, a diffraction grating is less sensitive […]
Why do we use FM?
Why do we use FM? Find Your Local Station: With AM radio, the amplitude, or overall strength, of the signal is varied to incorporate the sound information. With FM, the frequency (the number of times each second that the current changes direction) of the carrier signal is varied. FM signals have a great advantage over […]
What types of combustion are there?
What types of combustion are there? Here’s a closer look at five types of combustion: Complete Combustion. Complete combustion requires a combination of fuel and oxygen. Incomplete Combustion. Incomplete combustion occurs when there is not enough oxygen for the fuel to fully react. Rapid Combustion. Spontaneous Combustion. Explosive Combustion. What three things are needed for […]
How do you find displacement with time and distance?
How do you find displacement with time and distance? Displacement can be calculated by measuring the final distance away from a point, and then subtracting the initial distance. Displacement is key when determining velocity (which is also a vector). Velocity = displacement/time whereas speed is distance/time. What is the formula to find displacement? Displacement (s) […]
What is the average time to read a single sector?
What is malleability and example?
What is malleability and example? It is the ability of a solid to bend or be hammered into other shapes without breaking. Examples of malleable metals are gold, iron, aluminum, copper, silver, and lead. Gold and silver are highly malleable. The property is not seen in non-metals. What do you mean by ductility class 8? […]
What is the angle of incidence in aviation?
What is the angle of incidence in aviation? On fixed-wing aircraft, the angle of incidence (sometimes referred to as the mounting angle or setting angle) is the angle between the chord line of the wing where the wing is mounted to the fuselage, and a reference axis along the fuselage (often the direction of minimum […]
What are the 3 aspects of sound?
What are the 3 aspects of sound? Sound waves are changes in pressure generated by vibrating molecules. The physical characteristics of sound waves influence the three psychological features of sound: loudness, pitch, and timbre. Loudness depends on the amplitude,or height, of sound waves. The greater the amplitude, the louder the sound perceived. What is the […]
What weighs approximately 1 Newton?
What weighs approximately 1 Newton? In general terms anything that has a mass of 102 grams is said to have a weight of one Newton, because a 0.102 kg object accelerating at 9.81 m/s2 gives you a force of one Newton. Local grocery stores have many things that weigh one Newton. In the fruit department, […]
Does odometer measure speed or velocity?
Does odometer measure speed or velocity? The odometer gives us only the measure but doesn’t show the direction of velocity. The odometer measures the scalar quantity – the speed of the car. The device may be electronic or mechanical or a combination of the two. How do you calculate distance traveled using odometer? The formula […]
