At a camp site there are tents of 2 shades. 1 made with black fabric and the other with white fabric. Which one will you prefer

for resting on a hot summer afternoon. Give reason for your choice

Answer:

Explanation:

On a hot summer afternoon the tent made up of white fabric will be preferred because white colour is a bad absorber and good reflector of heat. Hence, it will be more convenient to stay under fabric tent made of white during this season because heat will be reflected which makes shade provided by such tent to be cool and enjoyable.

While the black fabric tent will be preferred during winter because black materials are good absorber of heat and are poor reflector.

lorasvet [3.4K]
Here,
Height (S) = 2m
Gravity on mars (g) = 3.7m/s^2
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s^2
By the one of the formula of the motion,
S = ut + 1/2at^2
2 = 0 * t + 1/2*3.7*t^2
2 = 1.85t^2
t^2 = 2/1.85 = 1.081
t =1.03s
So, it will take 1.03s long..

Light intensity is?
Fittoniya [83]
The correct answer is:
<span>The rate at which a waves energy flows through a given unit of area

In fact, light intensity is defined as the light power per unit of area:
</span>I= \frac{P}{A}
<span>but the power is the energy carried by the light per unit of time:
</span>P= \frac{E}{t}
<span>this means that the intensity can be rewritten as
</span>I= \frac{E}{tA}<span>
So, it's basically the rate of energy (per unit of time) through a given surface.</span>

Using a scale diagram, calculate the resultant force acting on a sailing boat when an easterly wind provides 2, point, 50, k, N,
EastWind [94]

Answer:

F = 3.6 kN, direction is 9.6º to the North - East

Explanation:

The force is a vector, so one method to find the solution is to work with the components of the vector as scalars and then construct the resulting vector.

Let's use trigonometry to find the component of the forces, let's use a reference frame where the x-axis coincides with the East and the y-axis coincides with the North.

Wind

X axis

          F₁ = 2.50 kN

Tide

         cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂

         sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂

          F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30

         F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30

         F₂ₓ = 1.20cos 30 = 1.039 kN

         F_{2y} = 1.20 sin 30 = 0.600 kN

the resultant force is

X axis

        Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ

        Fₓ = 2.50 +1.039

        Fₓ = 3,539 kN

        F_y = F_{2y}

        F_y = 0.600

to find the vector we use the Pythagorean theorem

         F = \sqrt{F_x^2 +F_y^2}

         F = \sqrt{ 3.539^2 + 0.600^2 }

         F = 3,589 kN

the address is

         tan θ = F_y / Fₓ

         θ = tan⁻¹ \frac{F_y}{F_x}

         θ = tan⁻¹  \frac{0.6}{3.539}0.6 / 3.539

         θ = 9.6º

the resultant force to two significant figures is

         F = 3.6 kN

the direction is 9.6º to the North - East
