The white light is made up of all wavelength of electromagnetic spectrum, the spectrum has different colors, When light rays fall on an object, some of the color in the white light will be absorbed by the object while some will be reflected. The color that is reflected by the object is the one that an observe will see. Thus, a purple flower will appear purple because it is reflecting the wavelength that appear as purple

A disk with a radius of R is oriented with its normal unit vector at an angle Q with respect to a uniform electric field. Which
beks73 [17]

As we know that electric flux is given by

\phi = E.A

\phi = EAcos\theta

so in order to increase the flux we have two options

1. By increasing the area of the disc

2. by changing the orientation of disc so the area of the disc is parallel to the electric field

so correct answer will be

<em>  A. increasing the area of the disk</em>

A student is told to use 20.0 g of sodium chloride to make an aqueous solution that has a concentration of 10.0 g/L (grams of so
Stells [14]

Answer:

she should add solute to the solvent

Explanation:

Given data :

Mass of the sodium chloride, = 20.0 g

Concentration of the solution = 10 g/L

Volume of 20.0 g of sodium chloride = 7.50 mL

Now, from the concentration, we can conclude that for 10 g of sodium chloride volume of the solution is 1 L

thus, for 20 g of sodium chloride  volume of the solution is 2 L or 2000 mL

also,

Volume of solution = Volume of solute(sodium chloride) + volume of solvent (water)

thus,

2000 mL = 7.5 mL + volume of solvent (water)

or

volume of water = (2000 - 7.5) mL

or

volume of water = 1992.5 mL

or

volume of water = 199.25 L ≈ 199 L

If a ping pong ball and a golf ball are both moving in the same direction with the same amount of kinetic energy, the speed of t
Liono4ka [1.6K]

If the kinetic energy of each ball is equal to that of the other,
then

(1/2) (mass of ppb) (speed of ppb)² = (1/2) (mass of gb) (speed of gb)²

Multiply each side by 2:

      (mass of ppb) (speed of ppb)² = (mass of gb) (speed of gb)²

Divide each side by (mass of gb) and by (speed of ppb)² :

     (mass of ppb)/(mass of gb)  =  (speed of gb)²/(speed of ppb)²

Take square root of each side:

       √ (ratio of their masses)  =  ( 1 / ratio of their speeds)²

By trying to do this perfectly rigorously and elegantly, I'm also
using up a lot of space and guaranteeing that nobody will be
able to follow what I have written.  Let's just come in from the
cold, and say it the clear, easy way:

If their kinetic energies are equal, then the product of each
mass and its speed² must be the same number.

If one ball has less mass than the other one, then the speed²
of the lighter one must be greater than the speed² of the heavier
one, in order to keep the products equal.

The pingpong ball is moving faster than the golf ball.

The directions of their motions are irrelevant.
