The greenhouse gases absorb some of this energy and radiate much of it back towards the surface whilst the rest is radiated out to space. This plays an important role in keeping the Earth's surface warm and able to sustain life.

What kind of waves are present during an earthquake? ...
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

1. The two main types of waves are body waves and surface waves. Body waves can travel through the earth's inner layers, but surface waves can only move along the surface of the planet like ripples on water. Earthquakes radiate seismic energy as both body and surface waves.

2. potential energy

3. Newton's second law of motion is F = ma, or force is equal to mass times acceleration.

4. Refraction is the bending of light

5. Density uses the formula p=m/V, or density (p) is equal to mass (m) divided by volume (V). Density is defined as mass per unit volume.

A television remote control uses infrared light with a wavelength of 940 nm. What is the frequency of the light?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Frequency = 3.19 * 10^14 Hz or 1/s

Explanation:

Relationship b/w frequency and wavelength can be expressed as:

C = wavelength * frequency, where c is speed of light in vacuum which is 3.0*10^8 m/s.

Now simply input value (but before that convert wavelength into meters to match the units, you do this by multiply it by 10^-9 so it will be 940*10^-9)

3.0 * 10^8 = Frequency * 940 x 10^-9

Frequency = 3.19 * 10^14 Hz or 1/s

The gravitational force,F, on a rocket at a distance,r, from the center of the earth isgiven byF=kr2wherek= 1013N·km2. (Newton·k
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The gravitational force changing velocity is

\frac{dF}{dt}=-8\frac{N}{s}

Explanation:

The expression for the gravitational force is

F=\frac{k}{r^{2}}\\\\k=10x10^{13} N*km^{2}\\\\r=10x10^{4} km\\\\V=0.4 \frac{km}{s}

Differentiate the above equation

\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{k}{r^{2}}\\\frac{dF}{dt}=k*r^{-2}\\\frac{dF}{dt}=-2*k*r^{-3} \frac{dr}{dt}\\\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{-2k}{r^{3}}\frac{dr}{dt}

The velocity is the distance in at time so

V=\frac{dr}{dt}=0.4 \frac{km}{s}

\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{-2*k}{r^{3}}*0.4\\\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{-8*10x^{13}N*km^{2} }{(10x10^{4}) ^{3}} \\\frac{dF}{dt}=\frac{-8x10^{12} }{1x10^{12}}

\frac{dF}{dt}=-8\frac{N}{s}

A 60 W light bulb is powered by a connection to a wall outlet with 120 V across the plug terminals. a) What is the current passi
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The current through the resistor is 0.5 A

Explanation:

Given;

power of the light bulb = 60 W

voltage in the wall outlet across the plug terminals = 120 V

power of the light bulb is the product of voltage in the wall outlet across the plug terminals and the current passing through the resistor.

power = voltage x current

Current = \frac{power}{voltage} = \frac{60}{120} = 0.5 A

Therefore, for a  60 W light bulb powered by a connection to a wall outlet with 120 V across the plug terminals, the current passing through the resistor is 0.5 A
