A) Light that scattered in the tank is independent of the frequency of light.
Eliminate
B) The lower frequencies of visible light were scattered by the colloid particles.
C) The higher frequencies of visible light were scattered by the colloid particles.

Answer:

C)

Explanation:

<em>The visible light spectrum</em> refers to the portion of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum that humans can see. In this spectrum, <u>higher frequencies are bluish while lower frequencies are reddish</u>.

The beam of white light contains all frequencies of the visible light spectrum, and from the experiment we see that only the lower frequencies got through the colloidal solution. This means that the higher frequencies must have been scattered by the colloid particles.

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

ΔS=2*m*Cp*ln((T1+T2)/(2*(T1*T2)^1/2))

Explanation:

The concepts and formulas that I will use to solve this exercise are the integration and the change in the entropy of the universe. To calculate the final temperature of the water the expression for the equilibrium temperature will be used. Similarly, to find the change in entropy from cold to hot water, the equation of the change of entropy will be used. In the attached image is detailed the step by step of the resolution.

A 1000-kilogram car traveling with a velocity of 20. meters per second decelerates uniformly at -5.0 meters per second2 until it
Elis [28]

Answer:

-20000 kgm/s

Explanation:

Impulse: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and its change in velocity. The S.I unit of impulse is kgm/s.

Mathematically, impulse can be expressed as

I = m(v-u).............. Equation 1.

Where I = impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest, m = mass of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, v = final velocity of the car.

Given: m = 1000 kg, u = 20 m/s, v = 0 m/s ( to rest)

Substitute into equation 1

I = 100(0-20)

I = 1000(-20)

I = -20000 kgm/s

Hence the impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest = -20000 kgm/s

An electron and a proton are held on an x axis, with the electron at x = + 1.000 m and the proton at x = - 1.000 m. Part A How m
r-ruslan [8.4K]

PART A)

Electrostatic potential at the position of origin is given by

V = \frac{kq_1}{r_1} + \frac{kq_2}{r_2}

here we have

q_1 = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

q_2 = -1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

r_1 = r_2 = 1 m

now we have

V = \frac{Ke}{r} - \frac{Ke}{r}

V = 0

Now work done to move another charge from infinite to origin is given by

W = q(V_f - V_i)

here we will have

W = e(0 - 0) = 0

so there is no work required to move an electron from infinite to origin

PART B)

Initial potential energy of electron

U = \frac{Kq_1e}{r_1} + \frac{kq_2e}{r_2}

U = \frac{9\times 10^9(-1.6\times 10^{-19}(-1.6 \times 10^{-19})}{19} + \frac{9\times 10^9(1.6\times 10^{-19}(-1.6 \times 10^{-19})}{21}

U = (2.3\times 10^{-28})(\frac{1}{19} - \frac{1}{21})

U = 1.15\times 10^{-30}

Now we know

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2}(9.1\times 10^{-31}(100)^2

KE = 4.55 \times 10^{-27} kg

now by energy conservation we will have

So here initial total energy is sufficient high to reach the origin

PART C)

It will reach the origin
