Inverse square law: \frac{I_{2} }{I_{1}}= (\frac{d{2} }{d_{1}})^2
where 
I_{1} is the intensity at distance 1
I_{2} is the intensity at distance 2
d_{1} is distance 1
d_{2} is distance 2

The inverse squared law state that intensity decreases in inverse proportion to the distance squared. So if light obeyed that rule, it will decreases its intensity as the square of the distance increases.

We can conclude that the correct answer is: true.

A rocket is fired at 100 m/s at an angle of 37, how many seconds did it take to get to the top?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

6.14 s

Explanation:

The time the rocket takes to reach the top is only determined from its vertical motion.

The initial vertical velocity of the rocket is:

u_y = u sin \theta = (100)(sin 37^{\circ})=60.2 m/s

where

u = 100 m/s is the initial speed

\theta=37^{\circ} is the angle of launch

Now we can apply the suvat equation for an object in free-fall:

v_y = u_y +gt

where

v_y is the vertical velocity at time t

g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

The rocket reaches the top when

v_y =0

So by substituting into the equation, we find the time t at which this happens:

t=-\frac{u_y}{g}=-\frac{60.2}{-9.8}=6.14 s

Find the west component of 45 m 19º S of W
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The west component of the given vector is - 42.548 meters.

Explanation:

We need to translate the sentence into a vectoral expression in rectangular form, which is defined as:

(x, y) = (r_{x}, r_{y})

Where:

r_{x} - Horizontal component of vector distance, measured in meters.

r_{y} - Vertical component of vector distance, measured in meters.

Let suppose that east and north have positive signs, then we get the following expression:

(x, y) = (-45\cdot \cos 19^{\circ}, -45\cdot \sin 19^{\circ})\,[m]

(x, y) = (-42.548,-14.651)\,[m]

The west component corresponds to the first component of the ordered pair. That is to say:

x = -42.548\,m

The west component of the given vector is - 42.548 meters.

Consider a box weight 2700 newtons resting on the ground. If the area of the box touching the ground is 1.5 square meters, what
Neko [114]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 1800 Pa

Explanation:

Data

Weight = 2700 N

Area = 1.5 m²

Pressure = ?

Formula

Pressure = Force / Area

The Pressure is defined as the force exerted per unit area.

-Substitution

 Pressure = 2700 / 1.5

-Result

 Pressure = 1800 Pa

The units of pressure are Pascals (Pa)
