Sb-26 what information is most important when passing near a lighthouse

1 answer:

6 0

Most important information when passing near a lighthouse is the water depth.
Today there are many complex navigation instruments,but in the past the lighthouse were the only navigation sailors had. However, the lighthouse still is very important in the navigation. There is an information chart on every lighthouse that gives information about the location of the lighthouses and the depth of the water. With these information an experienced sailor can navigate even without modern instruments.

Why does the number of dwarf planets recognized by astronomers in the solar system sometimes increase?

gregori [183]

Because sometimes it happens that they discover a dwarf planet
that nobody ever knew about before. When that happens, they
ADD the new one to the list of known dwarf planets, and then the
total number of dwarf planets on the list increases by 1 .

A transparent oil with index of refraction 1.28 spills on the surface of water (index of refraction 1.33), producing a maximum o

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The thickness of the oil slick is $1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Index of refraction = 1.28

Wave length = 500 nm

Order m = 1

We need to calculate the thickness of oil slick

Using formula of thickness

$2nt= m\lambda$

Where, n = Index of refraction

t = thickness

$\lambda$ = wavelength

Put the value into the formula

$2\times1.28 \times t=1\times\times500\times10^{-9}$

$t = \dfrac{1\times\times500\times10^{-9}}{2\times1.28 }$

$t=1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

Hence, The thickness of the oil slick is $1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

You can use any coordinate system you like in order to solve a projectile motion problem. To demonstrate the truth of this state

posledela

Answer:

a) y₂ = 49.1 m , t = 1.02 s , b) y = 49.1 m , t= 1.02 s

Explanation:

a) We will solve this problem with the missile launch kinematic equations, to find the maximum height, at this point the vertical speed is zero

$v_{y}$ ² = $v_{oy}$ ² - 2 g (y –yo)

The origin of the coordinate system is on the floor and the ball is thrown from a height

y-yo = $v_{oy}² /2 g
 y- 0 = 10.0²/2 9.8
 y - 0 = 5.10 m
 
The height from the ground is the height that rises from the reference system plus the depth of the ground from the reference system
 y₂ = 5.1 + 44
 y₂ = 49.1 m
Let's use the other equation to find the time
 [tex]v_{y}$ = $v_{oy}$ - g t

t = $v_{oy}$ / g

t = 10 / 9.8

t = 1.02 s

b) the maximum height

y- 44.0 = $v_{y}$ ² / 2 g

y - 44.0 = 5.1

y = 5.1 +44.0

y = 49.1 m

The time is the same because it does not depend on the initial height

t = 1.02 s

A proton is projected toward a fixed nucleus of charge Ze with velocity vo. Initially the two particles are very far apart. When

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The value is $R_f = \frac{4}{5} R$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial velocity of the proton is $v_o$

At a distance R from the nucleus the velocity is $v_1 = \frac{1}{2} v_o$

The velocity considered is $v_2 = \frac{1}{4} v_o$

Generally considering from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

$\Delta K = \Delta P$

Here $\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta K = K__{R}} - K_i$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * v_1^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * (\frac{1}{2} * v_o )^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{4} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

And $\Delta P$ is the change in electric potential energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta P = P_f - P_i$

Here $P_i$ is zero because the electric potential energy at the initial stage is zero so

$\Delta P = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} - 0$

$\frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{4} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} - 0$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * m *v_0^2 [ \frac{1}{4} -1 ] = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R}$

=> $- \frac{3}{8} * m *v_0^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} ---(1 )$

Generally considering from initial position to a position of distance $R_f$ from the nucleus

Here $R_f$ represented the distance of the proton from the nucleus where the velocity is $\frac{1}{4} v_o$

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

$\Delta K_f = \Delta P_f$

Here $\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta K_f = K_f - K_i$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * (\frac{1}{4} * v_o )^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{16} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

And $\Delta P$ is the change in electric potential energy from initial position to a position of distance $R_f$ from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta P_f = P_f - P_i$
