So in a fluorescent light bulb the mercury atoms release the UV light. This UV light is absorbed by the phosphorous powder coating inside and this releases the visible light.
So your answer is phosphorous powder.

car rides on four wheels that are connected to the body of the car by spring assemblies that let the wheels move up and down ove

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

78.4 KN/m

Explanation:

Given

mass of person 'm' =80 kg

car dips about i.e spring stretched 'x'= 1 cm => 0.01m

acceleration due to gravity 'g'= 9.8 m/s^2

as we know that,in order to find approximate spring constant we use Hooke's Law i.e F=kx

where,

F = the force needed

x= distance the spring is stretched or compressed beyond its natural length

k= constant of proportionality called the spring constant.

F=kx ---> (since f=mg)

mg=kx

k=(mg)/x

k=(80 x 9.8)/ 0.01

k=78.4x $10^3$

k=78.4 KN/m

A mechanic pushes a 2.30 ✕ 103-kg car from rest to a speed of v, doing 4,800 J of work in the process. During this time, the car

Illusion [34]

The horizontal force applied is 160 N while the velocity is 2.03 m/s.

<h3>What is the speed of the car?</h3>

The work done by the car is obtained as the product of the force and the distance;

W = F x

F = ?

x = 30.0 m

W = 4,800 J

F = 4,800 J/30.0 m

F = 160 N

But F = ma

a = F/m

a = 160 N/2.30 ✕ 10^3-kg

a= 0.069 m/s

Now;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

u = 0/ms because the car started from rest

v = √2as

v = √2 * 0.069 * 30

v = 2.03 m/s

A graduated cylinder contains 17.5 ml of water. When a metal cube is placed onto the cylinder, its water level rises to 20.3 ml.

igomit [66]

Answer:

V=2.8 ml

Explanation:

volume of the cube is it would be 20.3 - 17.5 ml so 2.8 ml.

A circuit consists of a series combination of 6.50 −kΩ and 4.50 −kΩ resistors connected across a 50.0-V battery having negligibl

Vlada [557]

Answer:

Part A: 16.1 V

Part B: 20.5 V

Part C: 21.5%

Explanation:

The voltmeter is in parallel with the 4.5-kΩ resistor and the combination is in series with the 6.5-kΩ resistor. The equivalent resistance of the parallel combination is given as

$\dfrac{1}{R_E}=\dfrac{1}{4.50}+\dfrac{1}{10.0}$

$R_E=\dfrac{4.50\times10.0}{4.50+10.0} = 3.10$

Part A

The voltmeter reading is the potential difference across the parallel combination. This is found by using the voltage-divider rule.

$V_1 = \dfrac{3.10}{3.10+6.50}\times50.0 = \dfrac{3.10}{9.60}\times50.0 = 16.1 \text{ V}$

Part B

Without the voltmeter, the potential difference across the 4.5-kΩ resistor is found using the same rule as above:

$V_2 = \dfrac{4.50}{4.50+6.50}\times50.0 = \dfrac{4.50}{11.0}\times50.0 = 20.5 \text{ V}$

Part C

The error in % is given by

$\dfrac{20.5-16.1}{20.5}\times100\% = \dfrac{4.4}{20.5}\times100\% = 21.5\%$
