Correct answer: a) True.

In fact, the soil at the poles consists mainly of snow. Snow has an albedo of 90%: albedo is the fraction of light (and so, of energy) that is reflected back to the space. This means that at the poles, about 90% of the light is reflected back to the space, while only 10% is absorbed.

Our eyes are typically 6 cm apart. Suppose you are somewhat unique, and yours are 7.50 cm apart. You see an object jump from sid
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Distance of the object from eye is approx 4.52 m

Explanation:

As we know that the object subtend a small angle on both the eyes which is given as

\theta = 0.995 degree

now we know that the distance between two eyes is given as

d = 7.50 cm

so we have

angle = \frac{arc}{Radius}

so here the radius is same as the distance from eye while arc is the distance between two eyes

so we have

0.95 \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{7.50}{R}

R = 452 cm

How large amount of energy is produced during the fission of uranium ​
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

answer is a very large amount of energy is produced from a very small mass

Explanation:

nuclear energy is produced either by fusion or fission the former is fusion of lighter atoms into heavier elements while the letter is the splitting of a heavier atom into lighter atoms. both produce tremendous amount of energy fusion causes compassion of mass wild fission reduces it. and produce it. fusion does not produce radioactive particles while fission does (alpha and beta particles and neutrons)

Calculate the distance traveled by a projectile as a function of launch angle. Compare the distances for two projectiles launche
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

R = x_{max} = \frac{v^2\sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{\sin(2\theta_1}{\sin(2\theta_2}

Explanation:

Using kinematics equations:

\Delta x = v_{0x}t\\\Delta y = -\frac{1}{2}gt^2+v_{0y}t

Use \Delta y = 0 due to condition of distance traveled.

Solving second equation for time, there are two solutions. t=0 and

t=\frac{2v_{0y}}{g}

Use the expression in the first equation to have

R = \frac{2v^2 \cos\theta\sin\theta}{g}

Using trigonometric identities, you have the answer of the distance.

By doing the ratio for two different angles, you have the second answer. Due to sine function properties, the distances can be the same to complementary angles. Example, for 20° and 70°, the distance is the same.

A 1.50 3 103 - kg car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to 18.0 m/s in 12.0 s. Assume that air resistance remains const
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

let force exerted by engine be F.Net force =( F-400)N, applying newton law

     F-400 = 1.5 x 10³x18 =27000 ,

F = 27400 N.

velocity after 12 s  = 0 + 18 x 12 = 216 m/s

Average velocity = (0 + 216 )/2 = 108 m/s

Average power = force x average velocity = 27400 x 108 = 29.6 10⁵ W .⁶

b) At 12 s , velocity = 216 m/s

Instantaneous power = velocity x force = 216 x 27400 = 59.2 x 10⁶ W.
