Answer:

1,800kg

Explanation:

Force = Mass x Acceleration

F = m x a

15840N = m x 8.8

8.8 x m = 15840

m = 15840/8.8

= 1,800kg

baherus [9]

The pair of blocks is insulated, so no energy escapes. The pair of temperatures possible is 95 +95 temperature blocks.

<h3>What is thermal equilibrium?</h3>

When two objects are in direct contact and transfer heat through conduction. When the both object attain same temperature after sometime, they are called in thermal equilibrium.

Two identical blocks are heated to different temperatures. The blocks are placed so that they touch, and heat begins to flow between blocks. The heat will continue to until and unless they have same temperatures. After they being isolated, the temperature of both will be same and no heat is transferred outside.

Thus, the pair of temperatures possible is 95 +95 temperature blocks.

iris [78.8K]

Answer: True.

Explanation:

The US constitution has involved details related to the Supreme Court; in fact, the US constitution created this institution. However, the structure does not specify how many judges will sit in the supreme court. Those details were left to the US Congress. In 1807, Congress increased the number of judges to seven; In 1837 the number increased to nine, and in 1863 it rose to 10.

A ray of light crosses a boundary between two transparent materials. The medium the ray enters has a larger optical density. Whi

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light decreases as it enters into the medium with the greater optical density.

The frequency of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials.

Explanation:

- When a ray of light crosses a boundary between two different materials, it undergoes refraction: the ray changes direction, and it also changes speed, according to the relationship:

$v=\frac{c}{n}$

where v is the speed of the ray of light in the material, c is the speed of light in a vacuum, n is the index of refraction of the material, which is larger for a medium with larger optical density. So, from the equation, we see that the larger the optical density, the smaller the speed of the wave.

- The frequency of the light does not depend on the properties of the medium, so it remains unchanged: therefore the statement

The frequency of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials.

is correct.

- Moreover, the wavelength of the ray of light is related to the speed and the frequency by the equation

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}$

where v is the speed and f the frequency. Since we have seen that v decreases and f remains constant, this means that the wavelength decreases as well, so the statement

The wavelength of the light decreases as it enters into the medium with the greater optical density.

is also correct.
