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.

The box leaves position x=0x=0 with speed v0v0. The box is slowed by a constant frictional force until it comes to rest at posit
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Magnitude of the Frictional force = (mv₀²)/2x₁

Explanation:

For the frictional force to stop the box, it has to produce the deceleration of the box; thereby being the opposing force to the box's motion.

According to Newton's first law of motion

Frictional force = (mass of the box) × (deceleration experienced by the box)

Let the mass of the box be m

Then,

Frictional force = ma

Then we can obtain the deceleration using the equations of motion

v² = u² + 2ax

u = Initial velocity = v₀ m/s

v = Final velocity = 0 m/s (since the box comes to rest at the end)

x = horizontal distance covered = (x₁ - x₀) = x₁ (since x₀ = 0)

a = ?

v² = u² + 2ax

0 = (v₀)² + 2ax₁

2ax₁ = - v₀²

a = - (v₀²)/(2x₁) (minus sign, because it's a deceleration)

Magnitude of the Frictional force = ma = (mv₀²)/2x₁

A vector has an x-component
tester [92]

Answer:

55.5 degrees above the x-axis.

Explanation:

Using SOH-CAH-TOA we can determine that

tan(the angle) = (opposite side)/(adjacent side)

Inserting our variables we get

the angle = arctan(28.4/19.5)

the angle = 55.5 degrees

In the formula, which quantity is measured in units of J/g degree C?
Andru [333]
In formula:

Specific heat capacity, c is measured in J/g degree C.

From Q = mcθ

c =  Q / mθ =    Q is in J, m might be in grammes, g,  θ is in degree C

So c can be measured in    J/g degree C

Answer = Option (a)
