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

An object in a fluid experiences a buoyant force from the fluid. If the object is completely immersed, on which does the magnitu
loris [4]

Answer:

Weight of the fluid that the object displaces.

Explanation:

When the fluid is completely immersed in a fluid, it experiences pressure from all the direction. While the object is immersed in the fluid a force acts on it in the opposite direction, i.e., upwards. This force is termed as buoyant force.

Also, as per the Archimedes' Principle, the force experience by the object is the same as the weight of the fluid that gets displaced by the object.

Thus on complete immersion of the object in the fluid, it experiences the force same as the weight of the fluid that gets displaced

PLZZZZ HELP QUICK . 30 points. Emma weighs 560 N, she has decided to stay in shape so she is working out every morning, This mor
Phantasy [73]

Force equals mass time acceleration. Weight is a force and it can replace force in the equation. The acceleration would be gravity, which is an acceleration.

1.)

Fw (weight) = m (mass) · g (gravity, 9.8 m/s²)

Fw = m * 9.81 m/s²

560N = m · 9.81 m/s²

m ≈ 57.08 kg

2.)

d = 350 meters

t = 65 seconds

velocity = d/t

velocity = 350 meters / 65 seconds

velocity ≈ 5.38 meters/sec

3.)

Force = 35N

Distance = 2 meters

Work = Force · Distance

Work = 35N · 2 meters

Work = 70 J

When a 25-kg crate is pushed across a frictionless horizontal floor with a force of 200 N, directed 20 below the horizontal, th
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Option E is correct 310N

Explanation:

Given that the force used to push the crate is F = 200N

The force directed 20° below the horizontal

Mass of crate is m = 25kg

Weight of the crate can be determine using

W = mg

g is gravitational constant =9.8m/s²

W = 25×9.8

W = 245 N

Check attachment. For free body diagram and better understanding

Using newton second law along the vertical axis since we want to find the normal force

ΣFy = m•ay

ay = 0, since the body is not moving in the vertical or y direction

N—W—F•Sin20 = 0

N = W+F•Sin20

N = 245+ 200Sin20

N = 245 + 68.4

N = 313.4 N

The normal force is approximately 310 N to the nearest ten
