These four surfaces are opaque; that is they reflect or absorb certain rays of light determine the color

Physics

In the first figure, the surface absorbs all colors except for green light, which is reflected: so, the surface will appear as green to our eyes, because green is the only color which is reflected by that surface.

Similarly, in the  second figure, the surface absorbs all colors except for blue, and so the surface will appear blue to our eyes.

In the third figure, the surface absorbs all colors, so it will appear black to our eyes (because no colors are reflected, and black=absence of colors).

In the fourth figure, all colors are reflected: this means the surface will appear white to our eyes (white= sum of all colors).

How does the change in the temperature of the universe provide evidence for universe expansion that supports the Big Bang Theory
xeze [42]

Question:

1) The universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos accumulates.

2) The universe is warming which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses.

3) The universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses.

4) The universe is warming which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos accumulates.​

Answer:

The correct option is;

3) The Universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses

Explanation:

With the temperature measurement carried out using the CSIRO radio telescope, Astronomers have been able to determine a temperature difference in the universe from 5.08 Kelvin 7.2 billion light years away to 2.73 Kelvin in the Universe today, which is in support of the Big Bang theory that as the Universe expanded from a state of extreme temperature that cools down as the Universe expands or the cosmos disperses.

What is a derived physical quantity? Name three derived physical quantities, and for each, give its S.I. units and its U.S. Cust
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Physical quantity is a physical property of an object or material that can be expressed by magnitude and unit.

The derived physical quantities are the type of physical quantities which can be expressed or defined by other physical quantities, called the base quantities. Example: Area, Volume, Velocity

Area- SI Unit: m², U.S. Customary unit: acre

Volume- SI Unit: m³, U.S. Customary unit: cubic inch

Velocity- SI Unit: m/s, U.S. Customary unit: ft/s

Beginning 145 miles directly south of the city of Hartville, a car travels due west. If the car is travelling at a speed of 42 m
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The rate of change of the distance is 14.89.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 145 miles

Speed of car = 42 miles/hr

Distance covered by car = 55 miles

We need to calculate the the rate of change of the distance

According to figure,

Let OA is x, and AB is y.

Now, using Pythagorean theorem

x^2=y^2+145^2

On differentiating

2x\dfrac{dx}{dt}=2y\dfrac{dy}{dt}

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{y}{x}\dfrac{dy}{dt}

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{55\times42}{\sqrt{55^2+145^2}}

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=14.89\ miles/hr

Hence, The rate of change of the distance is 14.89.

What is the maximum possible resultant of two vectors with magnitudes of 2 and 4 units? what is the minimum possible resultant?
Alexeev081 [22]

When two vectors are in same direction then we add up to get their resultant and in this case resultant would be maximum

R = A + B

R = 4 + 2

R = 6

If vectors are in opposite direction then they provide minimum resultant and in this case we subtract them

R = A - B

R = 4 - 2

R = 2
