Water waves having parallel crests 4.9 cm apart pass through two openings 7.9 cm apart in a board. At a point 3.0 m beyond the board, at what angle(s) O (0° < < 90°) relative to the "straight-through" direction would
there be little or no wave action?

30 points - when can a theory be modified if a new type of technology allows for new observations that raise new questions? a. immediately, while the questions about the theory are being asked b. after new hypotheses related to the theory are tested in experiments c. only after the new observations disprove all parts of the theory d. while scientists begin to think about how the theory could improve

In an old-fashioned amusement park ride, passengers stand inside a 3.0-m-tall, 5.0-m-diameter hollow steel cylinder with their backs against the wall. the cylinder begins to rotate about a vertical axis. then the floor on which the passengers are standing suddenly drops away! if all goes well, the passengers will “stick” to the wall and not slide. clothing has a static coefficient of friction against steel in the range 0.60 to 1.0 and a kinetic coefficient in the range 0.40 to 0.70. part a what is the minimum rotational frequency, in rpm, for which the ride is safe? express your answer using two significant figures. f f = rpm

Which statement is true? a) the work done to lift an object 6 meters is greater than the gravitational potential energy it gains. b) the work required to push an object is less than the work required to pull an object the same distance. c) the work required to raise an object to a height is equal to the gravitational potential energy the object gains. d) the work done against gravity to lift an object straight up is greater than the work required to roll it up a ramp.
