Power grid
All the poles and wires you see along the highway and in front of your house are called the electrical transmission and distribution system. Today, generating stations all across the country are connected to each other through the electrical system (sometimes called the "power grid").
Answer:
λ = 5.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 520 nm
Explanation:
From Young's Double Slit Experiment, we know the following formula for the distance between consecutive bright fringes:
Δx = λL/d
where,
Δx = fringe spacing = distance of 1st bright fringe from center = 0.00322 m
L = Distance between slits and screen = 3.1 m
d = Separation between slits = 0.0005 m
λ = wavelength of light = ?
Therefore,
0.00322 m = λ(3.1 m)/(0.0005 m)
λ = (0.00322 m)(0.0005 m)/(3.1 m)
<u>λ = 5.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 520 nm</u>
Prevailing definitions of climate are not much different from “the climate is what you expect, the weather is what you get”. Using a variety of sources including reanalyses and paleo data, and aided by notions and analysis techniques from Nonlinear Geophysics, we argue that this dictum is fundamentally wrong. <span>In addition to the weather and climate, there is a qualitatively distinct intermediate regime extending over a factor of ≈ 1000 in scale.Climate changes is projected to affect individual organisms, populations, ... Overall, there is a strong correlation between topographic slope and velocity from ... the ecosystems they live in—will adapt to these changes, or if they even can.</span>
Answer:
<em>Thus, the object is accelerating to the left</em>
Explanation:
<u>The Net Force</u>
The net force is the result of adding all the forces as vectors acting on a body.
Each vector can be expressed in its rectangular components Fx and Fy, and the sum is the sum of the rectangular components separately.
Second Newton's law gives the relation between the net force and the acceleration of the body:
We can see the acceleration is a vector with the same direction as the net force.
The diagram shows two vertical forces and two horizontal forces.
The vertical forces are acting in opposite directions and with the same magnitude, thus they cancel out, leaving zero net force in the y-axis.
The horizontal forces are opposite and with different magnitudes. Since the force acting to the left (F3) has a greater magnitude than the force acting to the right (F4), there is a net force directed to the left with a magnitude of 60 N - 20 N = 40 N
Thus, the object is accelerating to the left
Answer:
Regular reflection
Explanation:
- Reflection is the phenomenon that occurs when a light wave hits the interface between two different mediums and it bounces off back into the same medium. The angle of reflection (measured between the reflected ray and the perpendicular to the interface) is equal to the angle of incidence (measured between the incident ray and the perpendicular to the interface).
There are two different types of reflection:
- Regular reflection: this occurs when the interface between the two mediums is smooth (such as in the case of the still lake), so all the parallel light waves (which have same angle of incidence) are reflected exactly with the same angle of reflection (so, they come out all with same direction)
- Diffuse reflection: this occurs when the interface between the two mediums is not smooth, so each light ray is reflected with a different angle because it hits the interface with a different angle of incidence.
Therefore, in the case of the still lake, the correct answer is regular reflection.
