(Thought question) At noon On June 21 will the shadow length of 42 degrees north latitude be shorter or longer than it is on Mar

Answer: Shorter

Explanation: Shadow is formed when an light source is obstructed by an opaque object. The closer the source, shorter is the length of the shadow. In fact, when the source is exactly overhead, no shadow of the object is formed.

June 21 marks the Summer solstice which means the Sun passes directly overhead Tropic of cancer (23.5° N) at noon. March 21 marks the equinox which means sun passes directly overhead equator (0°).

Shadow length of an object at 42° Northern latitude will be shorter on June 21 because the Sun will be closer to this latitude as compared to March 21.

3) How far will 20 N of force stretch a spring with a spring constant of 140 N/m?
muminat

Answer:

7 meters, 2.8 meters

Explanation:

work done (nm) = force (n) * distance (m)

140= 20 * m

140/20 = m

m=7 meters

140= 50 * m

140/50 = m

m= 2.8 meters

An object of mass m is traveling in a circle with centripetal force Fc. If the velocity of the object is v, what is the radius o
borishaifa [10]

Hi there!

Recall the equation for centripetal force:
F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}

We can rearrange the equation to solve for 'r'.

Multiply both sides by r:
r * F_c = mv^2

Divide both sides by Fc:
\boxed{ r= \frac{mv^2}{F_c}}

The wavelength of light is 5000 angstrom. Express it in nm and m.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

1 angstrom = 0.1nm

5000 angstrom = 5000/1 × 0.1nm

<h3>= 500nm</h3>

1 \:  angstrom = 1 \times  {10}^{ - 10} m

5000 angstrom = 5000 × 1 × 10^-10

<h3>= 5 × 10^-7 m</h3>

Hope this helps you

When the magnetic flux through a coil of wire changes, what is generated between the ends of the coil? Which equation predicts t
True [87]

Answer:

induced electromotive force (Voltage)    E = - N dΦ / dt

Explanation:

When the magnetic flux this coil induces a current in each turn of the coil, which is why an induced electromotive force (Voltage) appears at the ends of the coil.

This phenomenon is fully explained by Faraday's law

        E = - dΦ / dt

where in the case of a coil with N turns of has

        E = - N dΦ / dt

Rl flux is the product of the normal to the area by the magnetic field, in this case the flux changes so we can assume that the area of ​​the coil is constant

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time. The velocity of the first airplane is 730 m/h at a heading of 44.3 ◦ . The velo
Goshia [24]

Answer:

So airplane will be 1324.9453 m apart after 2.9 hour

Explanation:

So if we draw the vectors of a 2d graph we see that the difference in angles is  = 83 - 44.3 = 83-44.3=38.7^{\circ}

Distance traveled by first plane = 730×2.9 = 2117 m

And distance traveled by second plane = 590×2.9 = 1711 m

We represent these distances as two sides of the triangle, and the distance between the planes as the side opposing the angle 38.7.

Using the law of cosine, d^2 representing the distance between the planes, we see that:

d^2=2117^2 + 1711^2 -2\times (2117)\times (1711)cos(38.7)=1755480.2482

d = 1324.9453 m
