In this item, we are given with the x-component of the velocity. The y-component is equal to 0 m/s. The time it takes for it to reach the volume can be related through the equation,

   d = V₀t + 0.5gt²

Substituting the known values,

  225 = (0 m/s)(t) + (0.5)(9.8)(t²)

Simplifying,
 
   t = 6.776 s

To determine the distance of the student from the edge of the building, we multiply the x-component by the calculated time.


   range = (12.5 m/s)(6.776 s)

   range = 84.7 m

<em>Answer: 84.7 m</em>

When sunlight strikes oil on the surface of water a variety of colors are observed what is the best explanation for this observa
klio [65]
Light waves are reflected from front and back surfaces of the thin films and constructive interference between the two reflected waves occurs in different places for different wavelengths. Light shining on the upper surface of the thin film with thickness t is partly reflected at the upper surface (path abc). Light transmitted from the upper surface is partly reflected at the lower surface (path abdef). The two reflected waves come together at point P on the retina of the eye. Depending on the phase relationship, they may interfere constructively or destructively. Different colors have different wavelengths, so the interference may be constructive for some colors and destructive for others.

Two 60 cm parallel disks are separated by 40 cm and are aligned directly on top of each other. Both disks are black surfaces wit
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

775.48 W

Explanation:

given,

diameter of disk = 0.6 cm

length of the disk = 0.4 m

T₁ = 450 K         T₂ = 450 K      T₃ = 300 K

\dfrac{d}{r_1}=\dfrac{0.4}{0.3} = 1.33

now,

the value of view factor (F₁₂)corresponding to 1.33

F₁₂ = 0.265

F₁₃ = 1 - 0.265 = 0.735

now,

net rate of radiation heat transfer from the disk to the environment:

=\dot{Q_{1-3}+Q_{2-3}} = 2 \dot{Q_{1-3}}

       = 2 F₁₃ A₁ σ (T₁⁴ - T₃⁴)

       = 2 x 0.735 x π x (0.3)² x (5.67 x 10⁻⁸ W/m²) (450⁴ - 300⁴)

       = 775.48 W

Net radiation heat transfer from the disks to the environment = 775.48 W

Smaller mammals use proportionately more energy than larger mammals; that is, it takes more energy per gram to power a mouse tha
timama [110]

Answer:

10,200 Cal. per day

Explanation:

The mouse consumes 3.0 Cal each day, and has a mass of 20 grams. We can use this data to obtain a ratio of energy consumption per mass

\frac{3.0 \ Cal}{20 g} = 0.15 \frac{Cal}{g}.

For the human, we need to convert the 68 kilograms to grams. We can do this with a conversion factor. We know that:

1 \ kg = 1000 \ g,

Now, we can divide by 1 kg on each side

\frac{1 \ kg}{1 \ kg} = \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg},

1 = \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg}.

Using this conversion factor, we can obtain the mass of the human in grams, instead of kilograms. First, lets take:

mass_{human} = 68 \ kg

We can multiply this mass for the conversion factor, we are allowed to do this, cause the conversion factor equals 1, and its adimensional

mass_{human} = 68 \ kg * \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg}

mass_{human} = 68,000 g

Now that we know the mass of the human on grams, we can multiply for our ratio of energy consumption

68,000 \ g * 0.15 \frac{Cal}{g} = 10,200 \ Cal

So, we would need 10,200  Cal per day.
