Light does not pass through some materials. What do you think happens

Physics
1 answer:
Hatshy [7]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon)

A photon is a quantum of EM radiation. Its energy is given by E = hf and is related to the frequency f and wavelength λ of the radiation by. E=hf=hcλ(energy of a photon) E = h f = h c λ (energy of a photon) , where E is the energy of a single photon and c is the speed of light.

What are stars made of?<br> How do they expand?<br> How do they explode?
lutik1710 [3]
Stars are made of very hot gas. This gas is mostly hydrogen and helium, which are the two lightest elements,  star is in a delicate and fragile balance between gravity, which would collapse the star to a point, and its internal pressure caused by the energy of the nuclear fusion reaction in the core. When a star's fuel has been spent, it explodes into a giant fireball known as a supernova.. I really hope this helps!!!!

A 4.0-m-diameter playground merry-go-round, with a moment of inertia of
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

7.1 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

d = diameter of merry-go-round = 4 m

r = radius of merry-go-round = \frac{d}{2} =  \frac{4}{2} = 2 m

I = moment of inertia = 500 kgm²

w_{i} = angular velocity of merry-go-round before ryan jumps = 2.0 rad/s

w_{f} = angular velocity of merry-go-round after ryan jumps = 0 rad/s

v = velocity of ryan before jumping onto the merry-go-round

m = mass of ryan = 70 kg

Using conservation of angular momentum

Iw_{i} - m v r = (I + mr^{2})w_{f}

(500)(2.0) - (70) v (2) = (I + mr^{2})(0)

1000 = 140 v

v = 7.1 ms⁻¹

Difference between duracell and interstate golf cart batteries
weeeeeb [17]
Duracell batteries are an example of an electrochemical cell that is powered between the reaction of Magnesium and Zinc, occurring in basic conditions (alkaline battery). This type of reaction has a precise output of 1.5 volts, and looks like this:

Zn + 2MnO2 ➡️ ZnO + Mn2O3

It’s not rechargeable.


Golf Cart Batteries are an example of an electrochemical cell that is powered by the reaction between Lead and Sulfuric Acid (Lead-Acid battery). This type of reaction occurs on larger scales than an alkaline battery, and thus can generate a variety of powers depending on how many instruments are present within the battery. The reaction looks like this:

PbO2 + Pb + 2H2SO4 ➡️ 2PbSO4 + H2O

This is a rechargeable cell, but is rather prone to discharging by the environment and surroundings of the battery.
