Which volcanic hazard can block the sunlight and temporarily cool the Earth’s surface?

2 answers:

8 0

If a volcano epulses massive amounts of dust into the atmosphere, those two things will/can happen.
The events will last until the dust lays down on the earth.

Two equal-magnitude forces are applied to a door at the doorknob. The first force is applied perpendicular to the door, and the

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

in first case the torque is maximum.

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the product of force and the perpendicular distance.

τ = F x d x Sinθ

In case A: the angle between force vector and the distance vector is 90 so torque is

τ = F x d

In case B: the angle between force vector and the distance is 30°.

τ = F x d x Sin30

τ = 0.5 Fd

So the torque is maximum in first case.

A 0.5 kg block of aluminum (caluminum=900J/kg⋅∘C) is heated to 200∘C. The block is then quickly placed in an insulated tub of co

Genrish500 [490]

Answer: When 1.0kg of aluminium block is used, the final temperature of the mixture will be T = 36.2∘C

If 1.0kg copper block is used, T of the mixture will be = 17.4∘C

If 100g (0.1kg) of ice at 0∘C is used, T will be = 64.9∘C

If 25g (0.025Kg) of ice is used, T will be= 147.1∘C

Explanation:

H = mcΘ

heat lost by block = heat gained by water

m₁c₁Θ₁ = m₂c₂Θ₂ where m₁ is mass of aluminium, m₂ is mass of water, c₁ is cAluminium, c₂ is cWater, Θ₁ is temperature change for aluminium, Θ₂ is temperature change for water.

0.5*900*(200-20) = m₁*4186*(20-0)

m₁ = 450*180/83270

m₁ = 0.973kg

when 1.0kg of aluminium block is used, the final temperature of the mixture will be T

heat lost by block = heat gained by water

1.0*900*(200-T) = 0.973*4186*(T-0)

180000 - 900T = 4073T

4973T = 180000

T = 180000/4973 = 36.2∘C

If 1.0kg copper block is used, T of the mixture will be

heat lost by block = heat gained by water

1.0*387*(200-T) = 0.973*4186*(T-0)

77400 - 387T = 4073T

4460T = 77400

T = 77400/4460 = 17.4∘C

If 100g (0.1kg) of ice at 0∘C is used, T will be

heat lost by block = heat gained by water + heat used in melting ice to form water at 0∘C

heat used in melting 0.1kg of ice, H = ml, where l= 33600J/Kg

0.5*900*(200-T) = 0.1*4186*(T-0) + 0.1*33600J/Kg

90000 - 450T = 418.6T + 33600

418.6T + 450T = 90000 - 33600

868.6T = 56400

T = 56400/868.6 = 64.9∘C

If 25g (0.025Kg) of ice is used, T will be

0.5*900*(200-T) = 0.025*4186*(T-0) + 0.025*33600J/Kg

90000 - 450T = 104.65T + 8400

104.65T + 450T = 90000 - 8400

554.65T = 81600

T = 81600/554.65 = 147.1∘C

A hydrogen discharge lamp emits light with two prominent wavelengths: 656 nm (red) and 486 nm (blue). The light enters a flint-g

mezya [45]

Answer:

The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 656 nm

Wavelength of blue = 486 nm

Angle = 37°

Suppose we need to find the angle between the red and blue light as it leaves the prism

$n_{r}=1.572$

$n_{b}=1.587$

We need to calculate the angle for red wavelength

Using Snell's law,

$n_{r}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$1.572\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{r}$

$\theta_{r}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.572\sin37}{1})$

$\theta_{r}=71.0^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the angle for blue wavelength

Using Snell's law,

$n_{b}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{b}$

Put the value into the formula

$1.587\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{b}$

$\theta_{b}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.587\sin37}{1})$

$\theta_{b}=72.7^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the angle between the red and blue light

Using formula of angle

$\Delta \theta=\theta_{b}-\theta_{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta \theta=72.7-71.0$

$\Delta \theta=1.7^{\circ}$

Hence, The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

A train travels 200km/hr. how much distance will the train be from the station in 2.5 hours?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

500km

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Speed = 200km/hr

Time taken = 2.5hrs

Unknown:

Distance = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the speed, time and distance equation.

Therefore;

Distance = Speed x time

So;

Distance = 200 x 2.5 = 500km

Plain electromagnetic wave (in air) has a frequency of 1 MHz and its B-field amplitude is 9 nT a. What is the wavelength in air?

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Part a)

$\lambda = 300 m$

Part b)

$E = 2.7 N/C$

Part c)

$I = 9.68 \times 10^{-3} W/m^2$

$P = 3.22 \times 10^{-11} N/m^2$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that frequency = 1 MHz

speed of electromagnetic wave is same as speed of light

So the wavelength is given as

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

$\lambda = \frac{3\times 10^8}{1\times 10^6}$

$\lambda = 300 m$

Part b)

As we know the relation between electric field and magnetic field

$E = Bc$

$E = (9 \times 10^{-9})(3\times 10^8)$

$E = 2.7 N/C$

Part c)

Intensity of wave is given as

$I = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0E^2c$

$I = \frac{1}{2}(8.85 \times 10^{-12})(2.7)^2(3\times 10^8)$

$I = 9.68 \times 10^{-3} W/m^2$

Pressure is defined as ratio of intensity and speed

$P = \frac{I}{c} = \frac{9.68\times 10^{-3}}{3\times 10^8}$

$P = 3.22 \times 10^{-11} N/m^2$
