From the given options, there are two types of items which involves wedge systems or mechanism.

Answer : Option A and Option C

<u> Explanation: </u>

A scissor blade and a axes are perfectly matches the definition and mechanism of wedge and its application, thus these are the two answers.

Wedge are the tool with a triangular shape. These are mechanized to either separate two entities or to keep it in place or can also lift the entity. Wedge is a simple machine that helps to smoothen the function in our day to day lives.

A. Blue light has higher energy than red light. Write 3 - 4 sentences comparing these electromagnetic waves with respect to the
frosja888 [35]

PART A)

As we know that energy of light depends on its wavelength and frequency as following formula

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} = h\nu

now we know that wavelength of blue light is less than the red light so here energy of blue light will be more

also we know that

\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}

so here if wavelength is smaller for blue light so its frequency will be high and the speed of both light will be same in same medium

PART B)

Since we know that frequency of blue light is more than red light as well as wavelength of blue light is less than the wavelength of blue light so here blue light will have more energy

When blue light and red light strike the metal surface then due to more energy of blue light it will release some loosely bonded electrons from metal surface which will contribute in current.

here if we increase the intensity of light then the number of photons that contain the blue light of certain energy will be more and that will contribute more current

So here quantification help as we know that due to quantization only certain frequency or energy will lead to eject electron so all colours will not give this current

A ball is pushed into a spring-loaded launcher with a force of 20 N, which compresses the spring 0.08 m.
damaskus [11]

Answer:

0.8J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force  = 20N

Compression  = 0.08m

Unknown:

Spring constant  = ?

Elastic potential energy  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

           F = k e

F is the force

k is the spring constant

e is the compression

             20  = k x 0.08

              k  = 250N/m

Elastic potential energy;

       EPE  = \frac{1}{2} k e²    =  \frac{1}{2}  x 250 x 0.08²

 Elastic potential energy = 0.8J

The density of aluminum is 2.7 × 103 kg/m3 . the speed of longitudinal waves in an aluminum rod is measured to be 5.1 × 103 m/s.
andrey2020 [161]
<span>The speed of longitudinal waves, S, in a thin rod = âšYoung modulus / density , where Y is in N/m^2. So, S = âšYoung modulus/ density. Squaring both sides, we have, S^2 = Young Modulus/ density. So, Young Modulus = S^2 * density; where S is the speed of the longitudinal wave. Then Substiting into the eqn we have (5.1 *10^3)^2 * 2.7 * 10^3 = 26.01 * 10^6 * 2.7 *10^6 = 26.01 * 2.7 * 10^ (6+3) = 70.227 * 10 ^9</span>
