The smallest angle from the horizontal that will cause the eggs to slick across the bottom of a Teflon-coated skillet is 2.29°

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Coefficient of friction, μ = 0.04

angle, Θ = ?

In order for the scrambled eggs to slide of the teflon, the force applied on the teflon due to gravity must be equal to the maximum value of the static friction force:

F = μ

mg sinΘ = μ mg cos Θ

sinΘ = μ cosΘ

μ = sinΘ / cosΘ

μ = tanΘ

0.04 = tanΘ

Θ = tan⁻¹ (0.04)

Θ = 2.29°

Therefore, the smallest angle from the horizontal that will cause the eggs to slick across the bottom of a Teflon-coated skillet is 2.29°

This problem must be solved using a sketch. I attached an illustration of the problem.
You must trace the ray that reflects from the top off the table to your eyes. This how eyesight works, light rays reflects off the objects into your eyes.
Law of reflection tells us that light ray reflects off the surface at the same angle in which it falls on it( i attached another illustration of this).
Now we can write tangens equations:
tan(\theta)=\frac{h-0.8}{1}\\&#10;tan(\theta)=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}\\&#10;\frac{h-0.8}{1}=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}
We solve for h:
\frac{h-0.8}{1}=\frac{1.8-h}{2.8}\\&#10;2.8h-0.8\cdot 2.8=1.8-h\\&#10;3.8h=1.8+2.24\\&#10;h=\frac{4.04}{3.8}\\&#10;h=1.06m

Dolphins communicate using compression waves (longitudinal waves). Some of the sounds dolphins make are outside the range of hum
lana66690 [7]

Answer: send the message underwater because a more dense medium would make the sound travel faster.

Explanation:

Dolphins communicate using compression waves - longitudinal waves. Longitudinal waves requires a medium to travel. A longitudinal wave transfers energy by the vibration of medium particles in the direction of the wave motion. Compression are the regions where density of the medium is higher and rarefaction is a low density region.

A longitudinal wave travels faster in a denser medium. It has maximum speed in solid and minimum in gas. Thus, to transfer message quickly to dolphin B., dolphin A should send the message underwater and not in air. This is because water has higher density than air. Molecules collide more quickly in water than in air and it takes less time for signal to travel.

What is the intensity in W/m2 of a laser beam used to burn away cancerous tissue that, when 85.0% absorbed, puts 470 J of energy
Advocard [28]

Answer:

26036485.6433 W/m²

Explanation:

E= Energy = 470 J

t = Time = 4 seconds

d = Diameter = 2.6 mm

Power is given by

P=\dfrac{E}{t}

Intensity is given by

I=\dfrac{P}{\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow 0.85I=\dfrac{E}{t\dfrac{\pi}{4} d^2}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{470}{0.85\times 4\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times (2.6\times 10^{-3})^2}\\\Rightarrow I=26036485.6433\ W/m^2

The intensity of the laser beam is 26036485.6433 W/m²

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

The pressure is defined as the product of the density of the liquid by the gravitational acceleration by the height, and can be easily calculated by means of the following equation.

 P=Ro*g*h

where:

Ro = density of the fluid [kg/m³]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation [m]

In this way we can understand that the greater pressure is achieved by means of the height of the liquid, that is, as long as the fluid has more height, greater pressure will be achieved at the bottom.

Therefore in order of decreasing will be  

The largest pressure with the largest height of the liquid, container B. The next is obtained with container D, the next with container A and the lowest pressure with container C.  

The pressure decreases as we go from the container B - D - A - C
