A woman is standing on a steep hillside in the rain and is not moving. A

Physics

NemiM [27]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. The component of the woman's weight along the hillside is larger than the kinetic friction between the woman and the ground

Explanation:

Given that the coefficient of static friction is always larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction, we have that before the wind blew, the component of the woman's weight along the hillside was lesser than the static friction between  the woman and the ground, when the wind blew the total force of the wind and the component of the woman's weight put her into motion such that the acting frictional force was then the kinetic frictional force which was lesser than the kinetic frictional force so the woman continues to slide down the hillside without the wind.

The width of the central maxima, formed from light of wavelength 575 nm behind a single slit that has a width of 115 μm, is 1.15
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

 L  = 1.15 m

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon is described by the equation

        a sin θ = m λ

Where a is the width of the slit, λ  the wavelength and m is an integer, the order of diffraction is left.

The diffraction measurements are made on a screen that is far from the slit, and the angles in the experiment are very small, let's use trigonometry

          tan θ = y / L

          tan θ = sint θ / cos θ≈ sin θ

We substitute in the first equation

           a (y / L) = m λ

The first maximum occurs for m = 1

The distance is measured from the center point of maximum, which coincides with the center of the slit, in this case the distance is the total width of the central maximum, so the distance (y) measured from the center is

         y = 1.15 / 2 = 0.575 cm

         y = 0.575 10⁻² m

Let's clear the distance to the screen (L)

       L = a y / λ  

Let's calculate

     L = 115 10⁻⁶  0.575 10⁻² / 575 10⁻⁹

     L  = 1.15 m

NEED HELP FAST ILL MARK BRAINLIEST AND RATE 5 STARS AND SAY THANK YOU
daser333 [38]

Acceleration = (change in speed)/(time for the change)

Change in speed = (end speed) - (start speed)

Change in speed = (10 m/s) - (20 m/s) = -10 m/s

Time for the change = 5.00 seconds

Acceleration = (-10 m/s) / (5 sec)

<em>Acceleration = -2 m/s²</em>

That's choice-A .

Tell me about Orion nebula
RSB [31]
Is the most intensely studied celestial feature. It has also help revealed much about the process of how stars and planetary systems are formed from collapsing clouds of gas and dust. It is also the closest large star-forming region to Earth. The Orion Nebula is an enormous cloud of gas and dust, is located in our galaxy (Milky Way).

If the wavelength of a 4.65 ✕ 102 Hz sound in freshwater is 3.45 m, what is the speed of sound in fresh water?
natima [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, the wavelength is 3.45m

λ=3.45m

Frequency is 4.65×10^2Hz

F=4.65×10^2Hz

Speed is given as

V=Fλ

Then,

V=4.65×10^2× 3.45

V=1604.25m/s

The speed of sound in fresh water is 1604.25m/s
