Answer: Radiation

Explanation:

Heat transfer through radiation. Radiation is one of the mode of heat transfer and is the transfer of heat from one body to another without passing through any intervening medium. It is the heat energy directly from the sun. This energy reaches the earth directly without obstruction.

Interactive Solution 28.5 illustrates one way to model this problem. A 7.11-kg object oscillates back and forth at the end of a

____ [38]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 7.11 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 61.6 N/m

Speed of the observer, $v=2.79\times 10^8\ m/s$

We need to find the time period of oscillation observed by the observed. The time period of oscillation is given by :

$t_o=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}} \\\\t_o=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{7.11}{61.6}} \\\\t_o=2.13\ s$

Time period of oscillation measured by the observer is :

$t=\dfrac{t_o}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}} }\\\\t=\dfrac{2.13}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(2.79\times 10^8)^2}{(3\times 10^8)^2}} }\\\\t=5.79\ s$

So, the time period of oscillation measured by the observer is 5.79 seconds.

A rock is dropped into the Grand Canyon. It takes 18 seconds to hit the bottom. Calculate how deep the canyon is.

bonufazy [111]

The distance it falls is given by
x = (1/2)at^2
where a = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2
x = (1/2)(9.8)(18)^2
x = 1587.6 m
The answer is 1587.6 meters
