Around 1700, when Mechanics was made for the first time by Sir Isaac Newton, he said about the nature of the light that it resembles thiny particles. Somewhat latter , around 1865, Maxwell discovered that the Electromagnetic waves have the same speed as the speed of light. From this resemblance he deduced that light should be an Electromagnetic wave. Latter than this, at around 1900, when trying to explain some peculiarities of the Photoelectric effect, Eistein postulated that light behaves like thiny particles (the older Newton Theory from 1700).
Today we say that LIGHT HAS A DUAL CHARACTER. It is also a wave and a particle. In some experiments light behaves like an Electromagnetic wave (diffraction, reflection, refraction), in other experiments light behaves like thiny particles (quanta): the Photoelectric effect and the Compton effect.

If a girl carries groceries up a flight of stairs, is she doing work on the groceries? Explain.​
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes she is doing work. With or without the groceries, she is still doing work. She does more work with the groceries than without because Work is defined by F which is defined by mass. The mass increases with the groceries.

The work done is against the force of gravity.

The iron content of iron ore can be determined by titration with a standard solution. The iron ore is dissolved in , and all the
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

2.11 %

Explanation:

In acidic medium iron is in Fe ⁺³ oxidation state .

Equivalent weight = 56 / 3

= 18.33 gm

acid used in titration

= 16.37 mL of .0233 M

= 16.37 x .0233 mL of M soln

= .38 mL of M soln

.38 mL of M soln reacts with .3298 gm of ore

1000 mL of M soln = (.3298 / .38)  x 1000 gm of iron ore

867.89 gm

This must contain one gm equivalent of iron

or 18.33 gm

867.89 gm of ore contains 18.33 gm of iron

mass % of iron in the given ore

= (18.33 / 867.89)  x 100

= 2.11 %

If a 60 kg student is standing on the edge of a cliff. Find the students gravitational potential of the cliff is 30 m high
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

17640J

Explanation:

Give mass m= 60kg

Height h =30m

Since the student is standing on the edge of a cliff , acceleration due to gravity g is 9.8m/s^2

The student’s gravitational potential energy can be found by the formula

mgh

That’s 60 x 9.8 x 30

= 17640J
