Given:
d = 2.70 g/cm³, the density
M = 5.31 lbs, the mass
t = 0.0130 mm, thickness

Convert all data into SI units.
d = (2.70 g/cm³)*(1/1000 kg/g)*(10² cm/m)³
   = 2.7 x 10³ kg/m³
M = (5.31 lb)*(0.543592 kg/lb)
    = 2.4086 kg
t = (0.013 mm)*(10⁻³ m/mm)
  = 1.3 x 10⁻⁴ m

Let the surface area f the foil be A m².
Then the mass of the foil is 
M = d*A*t
    = (2.7 x 10³ kg/m³)*(A m²)*(1.3 x 10⁻⁴ m) 
    = 0.351A kg

Because the mass is 2.4086 kg, therefore
A = 2.4086/0.351
   = 6.862 m²

Answer: The surface area is 6.862 m².

PLEASE HELP 15 POINTSexplain properties and importance of light and how it separates into colors
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

It is not a property of light. It is your eyes and brain.

Specifically, the three kinds of cone cells in our eye that are sensitive to different ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum. The fact that there are three means that color is three dimensional, and is the reason the pure colors form a circle even though the spectrum of wavelengths is linear.

Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum; light waves of different frequencies and wavelengths are distinguished as colors by the human eye. A prism can separate the colors of white light (dispersion) because different frequencies of light have different refractive indices for a given material.

A 30 kg mass and a 20 kg mass are joined by a light rigid rod and this system is free to rotate in the plane of the page about a
stepan [7]

55 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given as: 0.5MV^2 where M is the mass and V is the speed of rotation. Since the masses are point masses, we calculate the point mass for each mass.

M1 = 30*0.2^2 = 1.2kgm^2

M2 = 20*0.4^2 = 3.2kgm^2

V = 5 rad/s

Calculating using the formula above, we obtain :

0.5(1.2+3.2)5^2 =0.5*4.4*25 = 55 J
