11.76 cm² into two significant figures and include the appropriate units

1 answer:

8 0

You will need to turn this into scientific notation, so:

1.176 × 10^1 cm^2

To two significant figures means to two digits so since 7 is greater than 5, you will need to round up.

Final answer is:

1.2×10^1 cm^2

Glass absorbs ultraviolet (UV) rays from the Sun. Would a fraction of the incident UV light be reflected from the air/glass boun

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Any transparent surface in practical is neither a perfect absorber of electromagnetic waves neither a perfect reflector. Generally all the transparent surfaces reflect some amount of irradiation and the other parts are absorbed and transmitted.

<u>That is given by as relation:</u>

$\alpha+\rho+\tau=1$

where:

$\alpha=$ absorptivity which is defined as the ratio of the absorbed radiation to the total irradiation

$\rho=$ reflectivity is defined as the ratio of reflected radiation to the total irradiation

$\tau=$ transmittivity is defined as the ratio of total transmitted radiation to the total irradiation

A pipe is horizontal and carries oil that has a viscosity of 0.14 Pa s. The volume flow rate of the oil is 5.3 × 10-5 m3/s. The

Liula [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

$\mu =0.14 Pa.s$

Volume Flow rate $Q=5.3\times 10^{-5} m^3/s$

Length $L=37 m$

radius $r=0.58 cm$

$D=1.16 cm$

According to Hagen-Poiseuille Equation

difference in Pressure is given

$\Delta P=\frac{128\mu L\cdot Q}{\pi D^4}$

$P_{in}-P_{out}=\frac{128\mu L\cdot Q}{\pi D^4}$

$P_{in}=P_{out}+\frac{128\mu L\cdot Q}{\pi D^4}$

$P_{in}=1.01325\times 10^5+\frac{128\times 0.14\times 37\times 5.3\times 10^{-5}}{\pi\cdot 1.16^4\times 10^{-8}}$

$P_{in}=1.01325\times 10^5+6.17\times 10^5$

$P_{in}=7.19\times 10^5$

A frog is at the bottom of a 17-foot well. Each time the frog leaps, it moves up 3 feet. If the frog has not reached the top of

docker41 [41]

Answer:

The frog takes 8 jumps to reach top of well

Explanation:

Given data

Frog at bottom=17 foot

Each time frog leaps 3 feet

Frog has not reached the top of the well, then the frog slides back 1 foot

To Find

Total number of leaps the frog needed to escape from well

Solution

in 1 jump distance jumped=3+(-1)

=2 feet

=2×1 feet

The "-1" is because the frog goes back

Now After 2 jumps the distance jumped as:

Distance Jumped=2+2

Distance Jumped=2*2

=4 feet

Similarly after 7 jumps

Distance Jumped=2+2+......+2

Distance Jumped=2*7

=14 feet

Now after 8th jump the frog climbs but doesnot slide back as it is reached to the top of well.

Distance Jumped=(Distance Jumped after 7 jumps)+3

=14+3

=17 feet

The frog takes 8 jumps to reach top of well

A long ramp made of cast iron is sloped at a constant angle θ = 52.0∘ above the horizontal. Small blocks, each with mass 0.42 kg

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

For cast iron we have

$h = 0.92 m$

For copper

$h = 1.05 m$

For Lead

$h = 1.23 m$

For Zinc

$h = 2.43 m$

Explanation:

As we know that final speed of the block is calculated by work energy theorem

$W_f + W_g = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$-\mu_k mg cos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) + mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$v^2 = 2gh - 2\mu_k g h cot\theta$

$v = \sqrt{2gh(1 - \mu_k cot\theta)}$

For cast iron we have

$4 = \sqrt{2(9.81)(h)(1 - 0.15cot52)}$

$h = 0.92 m$

For copper

$4 = \sqrt{2(9.81)(h)(1 - 0.29cot52)}$

$h = 1.05 m$

For Lead

$4 = \sqrt{2(9.81)(h)(1 - 0.43cot52)}$

$h = 1.23 m$

For Zinc

$4 = \sqrt{2(9.81)(h)(1 - 0.85cot52)}$

$h = 2.43 m$
