Physics

1 answer:

Sonja [21]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational forces are acting on a masses . It gives

F = (GmM)/ r2

F - force acting on two masses

G - Gravitational Constant

m, M - Mass

r - distance between two mass

Magnetic force acting on due to magnetic fields

Nuclear force is acting on due to nuclear reaction . This is happened inside th sun between H and He

Elastic force is acting due to stress and strain of the object

What type of relationship exists between the length of a wire and the resistance, if all other factors remain the same? A. Resis

ZanzabumX [31]

<h3>Answer</h3>

(A) Resistance is directly related to length.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Formula for resistance

R = p(length) / A

where R = resistance

p = resistivity(material of wire)

A = cross sectional area

So it can be seen that resistance depends upon 3 factors that are length of wire , resistivity of wire and the cross sectional area of the wire.

If two of the factors, resistivity and cross sectional area, are kept constant then the resistance is directly proportional to the length of wire.

<h3> R ∝ length</h3>

This means that the resistance of the wire increases with the increase in length of the wire and decreases with the decrease of length of the wire.

Unpolarized light is incident upon two ideal polarizing filters that do not have their transmission axes aligned. If 19% of the

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

51.94°

Explanation:

$I_0$ = Unpolarized light

$I_2$ = Light after passing though second filter = $0.19I_0$

Polarized light passing through first filter

$I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}$

Polarized light passing through second filter

$I_2=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow 0.19I_0=\frac{I_0}{2}cos^2\theta\\\Rightarrow cos^2\theta=\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{\frac{0.19I_0}{\frac{I_0}{2}}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.19\times 2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\sqrt{0.38}\\\Rightarrow \theta=51.94^{\circ}$

The angle between the two filters is 51.94°

In a perfectly elastic collision between two perfectly rigid objects

ipn [44]

Both the total momentum and the total kinetic energy are conserved

Explanation:

- In a collision between two or more objects, if there are no external forces acting on the system (isolated system), the total momentum of the objects is always conserved. This is called principle of conservation of momentum, and can be written as follows:

$mu+MU = mv+MV$

where

m, M are the masses of the two objects

u, U are the initial velocities of the two objects

v, V are the final velocities of the two objects

- The total kinetic energy, however, is not always conserved. In fact, we have two types of collision:

1) In a perfectly elastic collision, the total kinetic energy of the objects is conserved. This means that we can write the following equation:

$\frac{1}{2}mu^2 + \frac{1}{2}MU^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}MV^2$

2) In an inelastic collision, the total kinetic energy of the object is NOT conserved. This means that part of the total kinetic energy is "lost", converted into other forms of energy (mainly thermal energy, due to the presence of frictional forces within the system). The most extreme case is called perfectly inelastic collision, in which the two objects stick together after the collision, and there is the maximum loss of kinetic energy.

What is the average speed of a car that travels 40 mph for 1 hour and 60 mph in another hour?

svetoff [14.1K]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

-- Traveling at 40 mph for 1 hour, the distance covered is 40 miles.

-- Traveling at 60 mph for 1 hour, the distance covered is 60 miles.

-- Total distance covered = (40 miles) + (60 miles) = 100 miles

-- Total time = (1 hour) + (1 hour) = 2 hours

-- Average speed = (100 miles) / (2 hours)

<em>Average speed = 50 miles per hour</em>
