Answer:

False

Explanation:

Matter is neither created nor destroyed. When a candle is burned, the wax reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor. The matter isn't destroyed, it's merely changed.

How does a blue object look under all colors of light

OverLord2011 [107]

The "blue" object would look the same. Say that this blue object is a square. That "square" is every color but blue. The only reason that you see it as "blue" is because what we call "blue", it the only color of light that bounces back at our eyes. Under all colors of light, especially simultaneously. This square or any shape for that matter would absorb the other colors of light, but the blue will be rejected. Therefore, we can only see what bounces back at our eyes, which is the color blue in this case.

Hope this helps, WyattMarine501

Four ways to increase magnitude of current in dynamo

8090 [49]

Answer:

hmm

Explanation:

By increasing the number of turns in the coil, strength of magnetic field, speed of rotation of the coil in the magnetic field and by decreasing the distance between the coil and the magnet the magnitude of the induced e.m.f. can be increased in generator/dynamo.

Interactive Solution 11.13 presents a model for solving this problem. A solid concrete block weighs 100 N and is resting on the

mash [69]

Answer:

The value is $} N = 66 \ blocks$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the block is $W_b = 100 \ N$

The dimension of the block is $d = 0.400 m \ X \ 0.250 \ m \ X \ 0.130 \ m$

Generally two atmosphere is equivalent to

$P_{2atm} = 2 * 1.013 *10^{5} = 202600 \ N/m^2$

Generally 1 atm = $1.013 *10^{5} N/m^2$

The area of the block would be evaluated using width and height because we need for the smaller surface to be in contact with the ground in order to maximize the pressure and minimize number of blocks

$A = 0.250 * 0.130$

=> $A = 0.0325 \ m^2$

Generally the force due to this blocks is mathematically represented as

$F = N * W_b$

Here N is the number of blocks

$} 202600 = \frac{N * 100 }{ 0.0325}$

=> $} N = 66 \ blocks$

The tow spring on a car has a spring constant of 3,086 N / m and is initially stretched 18.00 cm by a 100.0 kg college student o

sdas [7]

Answer:

The velocity of the skateboard is 0.774 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The spring constant of the spring, k = 3086 N/m

The spring is stretched 18 cm or 0.18 m

Mass of the student, m = 100 kg

Potential energy of the spring, $P_f=20\ J$

To find,

The velocity of the car.

Solution,

It is a case of conservation of energy. The total energy of the system remains conserved. So,

$P_i=K_f+P_f$

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+20$

$\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3086\times (0.18)^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+20$

$50-20=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$30=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{60}{100}}$

v = 0.774 m/s

So, the velocity of the skateboard is 0.774 m/s.

Electric resistance ____________ with a(n) ____________in the length of a wire and as a result current flow ___________.

maria [59]

The answer is D. Electric resistance increases with an increase in the length of a wire and as a result current flow decreases. There is a direct relationship between the length of the wire and the resistance. The longer the wire, the more resistance there will be. Additionally, from Ohm's Law, current is inversely proportional to resistance. This means as the current increases, resistance decreases or vice versa.
