Wee see rainbows due to the geometries of the raindrops. when the sun shines behind, rays of light enter the raindrops and this light are refracted. The lights are then reflected from the back of the raindrop and refracted again as it passes the rain drop. Refraction in this sense is the cause for splitting the light into several colors.

The conservation of energy principle applies to a. all systems. b. open systems. c. closed systems. d. Ideal gas systems.
Ainat [17]

Answer:closed systems

Explanation:

A closed system is one in which matter does not enter or leave the system but there is exchange of energy between the system and its environment. In a closed system, the principle of energy conservation applies. The principle of energy conservation states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but is converted from one form to another. An example of a closed system is a reaction vessel whose lid is closed.

professor190 [17]

Answer:

955.36 seconds ≈ 16 minutes

Explanation:

Power(P) is the rate of doing work(W)

That is, P = W/t, where t is the time.

multipying both sides with 't' and dividing with 'P', we get: t=W/P

Here, W = 5.35 x 10^10 J and P = 5.6 x 10^7 W ( 1 W = 1 J/s).

Therefore , on dividing W with P, we get 955.36 seconds.

Now the elevator is moving downward with a velocity of v = -2.8 m/s but accelerating upward with an acceleration of a = 5.5 m/s2
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

160.75 N

Explanation:

The downward velocity has no effect on the force situation, it is only changes in velocity (plus, of course, gravity, which is always there) that require a force. At constant velocity, the bottom spring s_3 is supporting its mass m_3 to balance gravity.

As the elevator slows, though, it also ends up slowing down the spring arrangement, too. However, because the stretching takes time, it means that some damped harmonic motion will be set up in the spring chain.

When the motion has finally damped out, the net force the bottom spring s3 exerts on m3 has two components--that of gravity and of the deceleration of the elevator:

F_3net = m3 * (g + a) = 10.5×(9.81+5.5)= 10.5×15.31= 160.75 N
