Answer:

We have many uses for infrared: night-vision cameras, remote controls, infrared astronomy, and fiber-optic cables. The greenhouse effect is even related to infrared waves because greenhouse gases absorb the infrared emitted by the ground, trapping it on the Earth.

What would the answer be ?

Marianna [84]

The second one since you’re changing the soil up by adding different fertilisers. This will be you’re independent variable. And you’re dependent variable is your result = the plant height .
Hope this helps :)

A plastic rod 1.3 m long is rubbed all over with wool, and acquires a charge of -3e-08 coulombs. we choose the center of the rod

Anestetic [448]

(a) The plastic rod has a length of L=1.3m. If we divide by 8, we get the length of each piece:
$L/8=1.3m/8=0.1625 m$

(b) The center of the rod is located at x=0. This means we have 4 pieces of the rod on the negative side of x-axis, and 4 pieces on the positive side. So, starting from x=0 and going towards positive direction, we have: piece 5, piece 6, piece 7 and piece 8. Each piece is 0.1625 m long. Therefore, the center of piece 5 is at 0.1625m/2=0.0812 m. And the center of piece 6 will be shifted by 0.1625m with respect to this:
$c_6 = 0.0812m+0.1625m=0.2437 m$

(c) The total charge is $Q=-3 \cdot 10^{-8}C$ . To get the charge on each piece, we should divide this value by 8, the number of pieces:
$Q/8=-3\cdot 10^{-8}C/8=-3.75\cdot 10^{-9}C$

(d) We have to calculate the electric field at x=0.7 generated by piece 6. The charge on piece 6 is the value calculated at point (c):
$q= -3.75\cdot 10^{-9}C$
If we approximate piece 6 as a single charge, the electric field is given by
$E=k_e \frac{q}{d^2}$
where $k_e=8.99\cdot 10^9Nm^2C^{-2}$ and d is the distance between the charge (center of piece 6, located at 0.2437m) and point a (located at x=0.7m). Therefore we have
$E= 8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2} \frac{-3.75\cdot 10^9 C}{(0.2437m-0.7m)^2} =-161.9 V/m$
poiting towards the center of piece 6, since the charge is negative.

(e) missing details on this question.

A block with mass 0.470 kg sits at rest on a light but not long vertical spring that has spring constant 85.0 N/m and one end on

a_sh-v [17]

Answer: elastic potential energy = 20.27 J

Explanation:

Given that the

Mass M = 0.470 kg

Height h = 4.40 m

Spring constant K = 85 N/m

The maximum elastic potential will be equal to the maximum kinetic energy experienced by the block.

But according to conservative of energy, the maximum kinetic energy is equal to the maximum potential energy experienced by the block of mass M.

That is

K .E = P.E = mgh

Where g = 9.8m/s^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

K.E = 0.470 × 9.8 × 4.4

K.E = 20.27 J

Where K.E = maximum elastic potential energy stored in the spring during the motion of the blocks after the collision which is 20.27J.
