d. the surface on which the object is moving is made smoother

This is called lubrication, I think ...

b. the weight of the moving object is decreased

If there is less araea of contact because of the weight reduction ("squeezing together") then this could also have an effexct. I thinl though the thrust of the q is on lubrication = oil, talcum powder, thin films of water etc

Which of the following courses might a mechanical engineer take in college?
timofeeve [1]

The course to be likely taken by a mechanical engineer in college is agriculture operations (option A).

<h3>What is engineering?</h3>

Engineering is application of mathematics and the physical sciences to the needs of humanity and the development of technology.

Mechanical engineering is a subfield of engineering concerned with designing and building machines and mechanical systems.

A mechanical engineer is an individual who specialises in the field of mechanical engineering. This means that a mechanical engineer is expected to be vast in the knowledge of designing and building machines for operations in other fields.

One of those fields that a mechanical engineer can build or design machine for is agriculture. Therefore, agriculture operations is the most likely course to be taken by a mechanical engineer in college.

A. Blue light has higher energy than red light. Write 3 - 4 sentences comparing these electromagnetic waves with respect to the
frosja888 [35]

PART A)

As we know that energy of light depends on its wavelength and frequency as following formula

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} = h\nu

now we know that wavelength of blue light is less than the red light so here energy of blue light will be more

also we know that

\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}

so here if wavelength is smaller for blue light so its frequency will be high and the speed of both light will be same in same medium

PART B)

Since we know that frequency of blue light is more than red light as well as wavelength of blue light is less than the wavelength of blue light so here blue light will have more energy

When blue light and red light strike the metal surface then due to more energy of blue light it will release some loosely bonded electrons from metal surface which will contribute in current.

here if we increase the intensity of light then the number of photons that contain the blue light of certain energy will be more and that will contribute more current

So here quantification help as we know that due to quantization only certain frequency or energy will lead to eject electron so all colours will not give this current

The A string of a violin is a little too tightly stretched. Beats at 4.00 per second are heard when the string is sounded togeth
Basile [38]

Answer:

T=2.5*10^{-3}s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Beat frequency F_b=4

Frequency F=400Hz

Generally the equation for Frequency of the violin is mathematically given by

 f_v=F_b+F

 f_v=4+400Hz

 f_v=404Hz

Therefore the period of the violin string oscillations is

 T=\frac{1}{f_v}

 T=\frac{1}{404}

 T=2.5*10^{-3}s

A shell is fired at an angle of 35° above the horizontal at a velocity of 40 m/s. (a) What is it's speed at the highest point of
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Part a)

v_f = v_x = 32.77 m/s

Part b)

T = 4.68 s

Explanation:

Part a)

Shell is fired at speed of 40 m/s at angle of 35 degree

so here we have

v_x = 40 cos35 = 32.77 m/s

v_y = 40 sin35 = 22.94 m/s

since gravity act opposite to vertical speed of the shell so at the highest point of its trajectory the vertical component of the speed will become zero

so at the highest point the speed is given

v_f = 32.77 m/s

Part b)

After completing the motion we know that the displacement of the object will be zero in Y direction

so we have

\Delta y = 0

0 = v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

T = \frac{2v_y}{g}

T = \frac{2(22.94)}{9.81} = 4.68 s
