Answer:

Potential energy, PE = 2.94 joules

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 0.3 kg

It is placed at a height of, h = 1 m

We need to find the gravitational potential energy of the book. It is given by :

PE = mgh

PE=0.3\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1\ m

PE = 2.94 Joules

So, the potential energy of the book at this height is 2.94 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

The pupil of a cat's eye narrows to a slit width of 0.5 mm in daylight. What is the angular resolution of the cat's eye in dayli
Elenna [48]

Answer:

C. 10⁻³ rads

Explanation:

Here, we shall use Rayleigh's Criterion to find out the angular resolution of Cat's eye during day light. Rayleigh's Criterion is written as follows:

θ = λ/a

where,

θ = angular resolution of Cat's eye = ?

λ = wavelength = 500 nm = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m

a = slit width of eye = 0.5 mm = 5 x 10⁻⁴ m

Therefore,

θ = (5 x 10⁻⁷ m/5 x 10⁻⁴ m)

Therefore,

θ = 0.001

θ = Sin⁻¹(0.001)

θ = 0.001 rad = 1 x 10⁻³ rad

Hence, the correct answer is:

<u>C. 10⁻³ rads</u>

Nesterboy [21]
Since like poles repel, the two horseshoe magnets have like poles facing each other, hence they repel each other and therefore they will not come in contact

Sonar is used to map the ocean floor. if an ultrasonic signal is received 3.3 s after it is emitted, how deep is the ocean floor
Goryan [66]
The speed of sound in fresh water is 1482m/s. 
It says ocean floor, so we should a little bit more accurate, and use the fact that the speed of sound in salt water (that has no bubbles) is 1560m/s. 
speed = distance / time 
Therefore Distance = speed x time = 1560 x 3.3 = 5158m 
The sonar wave is sent out by the boat, reflected off the seafloor, and then is received back at the boat on the surface. So the distance 5148m is the distance from the boat to the sea bottom and then back up to the boat again. 
So the depth of the water is half this distance Depth of water = 5148/2=2574m
