What is the approximate range of wavelengths for visible light?

1 answer:

7 0

We can answer the question by looking at the spectrum of the visible light, for example in this figure:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light#/media/File:EM_spectrum.svg

We see from the figure that the lowest part of the spectrum (violet) corresponds approximately to a wavelength of 380 nm, while the highest part of the spectrum (red light) corresponds approximately to a wavelength of 750 nm.

A force is applied to an ideal spring (initially in its equilibrium position) and does 1.9 JJ of work stretching it 2.2 cmcm . H

Verdich [7]

Answer:

W=16.58J

Explanation:

initial information we have

work: $W=1.9J$

stretched distance: $x=2.2cm=0.022m$

from this, we can find the value of the constant of the spring k, with the equation for work in a spring:

$W=\frac{1}{2} kx^2$

substituting known values:

$1.9J=\frac{1}{2}k(0.022)^2\\$

and clearing for k:

$k=\frac{2(1.9J)}{0.022^2} \\k=7,851.24$

and now we want to know how much work is done when we stretch the spring a distance of 6.5cm from equilibrium, so now x is:

$x=6.5cm=0.065m$

and using the same formula for work, with the value of k that we just found:

$W=\frac{1}{2} kx^2$

$W=\frac{1}{2}(7851.24)(0.065)^2\\W=16.58J$

A car accelerates for 10 seconds. During this time, the angular

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

the angular acceleration of the car is 1.5 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given;

initial angular velocity, $\omega_i$ = 10 rad/s

final angular velocity, $\omega_f$ = 25 rad/s

time of motion, t = 10 s

The angular acceleration of the car is calculated as follows;

$a_r = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i }{t} \\\\a_r = \frac{25-10}{10} = 1.5 \ rad/s^2$

Therefore, the angular acceleration of the car is 1.5 rad/s²

Why does water feel cool when it evaporates

Illusion [34]

First, it makes your skin feel cooler when it's wet. And when it evaporates it removes some heat. But sweat will only evaporate in an environment where there isn't muchwater in the air. In a place with high humidity, there're already lots of water molecules in the air.
