Why do we see black? Is light being admitted reflected or absorbed or transmitted

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:When white light strikes an object, each individual frequency of light is transmitted, reflected, or absorbed, depending on the properties of the surface molecules. If all frequencies are absorbed by the object, then it appears black. If all frequencies are reflected, then it appears white.

Find a parametric representation for the surface. The plane through the origin that contains the vectors i - j and j - k

boyakko [2]

Answer:

parametric representation: x = u, y = v - u , z = - v

Explanation:

Given vectors :

i - j , j - k

represent the vector equation of the plane as:

r ( u, v ) = r₀ + <em>u</em>a + vb

where: r₀ = position vector

u and v = real numbers

a and b = nonparallel vectors

expressing the nonparallel vectors as :

a = i -j , b = j - k , r = ( x,y,z ) and r₀ = ( x₀, y₀, z₀ )

hence we can express vector equation of the plane as

r(u,v) = ( x₀ + u, y₀ - u + v, z₀ - v )

Finally the parametric representation of the surface through (0,0,0) i.e. origin = 0

( x, y , z ) = ( x₀ + u, y₀ - u + v, z₀ - v )

x = 0 + u ,

y = 0 - u + v

z = 0 - v

∴ parametric representation: x = u, y = v - u , z = - v

A wheel rotating about a fixed axis has a constant angular acceleration of 4.0 rad/s2. In a 4.0-s interval the wheel turns throu

anastassius [24]

Answer:

a. 3 s.

Explanation:

Given;

angular acceleration of the wheel, α = 4 rad/s²

time of wheel rotation, t = 4 s

angle of rotation, θ = 80 radians

Apply the kinematic equation below,

$\theta = \omega_1 t \ + \ \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2\\\\80 = 4\omega_1 + \frac{1}{2}*4*4^2\\\\80 = 4\omega_1 + 32\\\\ 4\omega_1 = 48\\\\ \omega_1 = \frac{48}{4}\\\\ \omega_1 = 12 \ rad/s$

Given initial angular velocity, ω₀ = 0

Apply the kinematic equation below;

$\omega_1 = \omega_o + \alpha t_1\\\\12 = 0 + 4t\\\\4t = 12\\\\t = \frac{12}{4}\\\\t = 3 \ s$

Therefore, the wheel had been in motion for 3 seconds.

a. 3 s.

A boy drags a suitcase along the ground with a force of 100 N. If the frictional force opposing the motion of the suitcase is 50

stira [4]

Fortunately, 'force' is a vector. So if you know the strength and direction
of each force, you can easily addum up and find the 'resultant' (net) force.

When we talk in vectors, one newton forward is the negative of
one newton backward. Hold that thought, while I slog through
the complete solution of the problem.

(100 N forward) plus (50 N backward)

= (100 N forward) minus (50 N forward)

= 50 N forward .

That's it.
Is there any part of the solution that's not clear ?
