Answer:

D) Monitor volcanic eruptions on Earth

Explanation:

Terra means Earth in Latin. It is a flagship program of Earth Observing System (EOS). Satellite Terra was launched in December 1999 and it started gathering data from February 2000. It is sun-synchronous orbit placed about 705 km above the surface of the Earth.

It monitors the Earth through five major instruments. The data includes the surface features as well as of the atmosphere. This also includes monitoring volcanic eruptions.

Consider a double slit experiment in the air. The wavelength of light is 500nm light, the screen is 1m away and two adjacent bri

Bess [88]

Answer: $0.75\ cm$

Explanation:

Given

Wavelength of light $\lambda=500\ nm$

Screen is $D=1\ m$ away

Distance between two adjacent bright fringe is $\Delta y=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

When same experiment done in water, wavelength reduce to $\dfrac{\lambda }{\mu}$

So, the distance between the two adjacent bright fringe is $\Delta y'=\dfrac{\lambda D}{\mu d}$

Keeping other factor same, distance becomes

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{\frac{4}{3}}=\dfrac{3}{4}\quad \text{Refractive index of water is }\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow 0.75\ cm$

A shopper pushes a 5.32 kg grocery cart

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$\text { acceleration of the cart is } 10.94 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

Explanation:

According to “Newton's second law”

“Force” is “mass” times “acceleration”, or F = m× a. This means an object with a larger mass needs a stronger force to be moved along at the same acceleration as an object with a small mass

Force = mass × acceleration

$\text { Acceleration }=\frac{\text { force }}{\text { mass }}$

Given that,

Mass = 5.32 kg

$\text { Force }=12.7 \mathrm{N} \text { forces at }-28.7^{\circ}$

$x=-28.7^{\circ}$

F = 12.7N

Normal force = mg + F sinx,

“m” being the object's "mass",

“g” being the "acceleration of gravity",

“x” being the "angle of the cart"

$\mathrm{g}=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\text { (g is referred to as the acceleration of gravity. Its value is } 9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^ 2 \text { on Earth })$

To find normal force substitute the values in the formula,

Normal force = 5.32 × 9.8 + 12.7 × sin(-28.7)

Normal force = 52.136 + 12.7 × 0.480

Normal force = 52.136 + 6.096

Normal force = 58.232 N

<u>Acceleration of the cart</u>:

$\text { Acceleration }=\frac{\text {Normal force}}{\text { mass }}$

$\text { Acceleration }=\frac{58.232}{5.32}$

$\text { Acceleration }=10.94 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

$\text { Therefore, "acceleration of the cart" is } 10.94 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

Use differentials to estimate the amount of metal in a closed cylindrical can that is 10 cm high and 4 cm in diameter if the met

ira [324]

The amount of metal in a closed cylindrical can that is 10 cm high and 4 cm in diameter if the metal on the top and the bottom is 0.1 cm thick and the metal on the sides is 0.05 cm thick is 8.8 cm.

The formula for calculating the volume of a cylinder is given below.

V = πr^2 h

Get the differential of the volume as shown:

dV = V/ h dh + V / r dr

V/ h = πr^2

V/ h = 2 πr h

Now, the differential becomes

dV = πr^2dh + 2πrh dr

Given the following parameters i.e. diameter and height

dh = 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.2 cm

dr = 0.05 cm

h = 10 cm

d = 4 cm

r = 2cm

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

dV = 3.14(2)^2(0.2) + 2(3.14)(2)(10)(0.05)

dV = 2.512 + 6.28

dV = 8.792 cm

dV = 8.8 cm

Explain why sugar was used in this experiment. How does the experiment relate to a baker adding yeast to bread to make it rise?

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Yeast can use oxygen to release the energy from sugar (like you can) in the process called "respiration". ... So, the more sugar there is, the more active the yeast will be and the faster its growth (up to a certain point - even yeast cannot grow in very strong sugar - such as honey).
