006 10.0 points If a 1-megaton nuclear weapon is exploded
at ground level, the peak overpressure (that
is, the pressure increase above normal at-
mospheric pressure) will be 0.2 atm at a
distance of 6 km. Atmospheric pressure is
1.013 105 Pa.
What force due to such an explosion will be
exerted on the side of a house with dimensions
4.32 m x 24.5 m?

Sawyer is studying diffraction. he draws a diagram of a plane wave to show how light waves travel. which best describes sawyer’s error? the wave fronts should be perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move. the arrow showing the direction of movement of the waves should be pointing to the left. the arrow showing the direction of movement of the waves should be pointing downward. the wave fronts should be both parallel and perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move.
