Answer:

1- The acceleration of the object is larger in magnitude the smaller the radius of the circle.

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object in a circular path is

$a = \frac{v^2}{r}$

As can be seen from the equation, if the radius of the circle is decreases, the magnitude of the acceleration increases.

As for the direction of the acceleration, it is always towards the center, and it is always perpendicular to the direction of the velocity.

an aircraft landing on an air craft carrier is brought to a complete stop from an inital velocity of 215km/hr in 2.7 seconds. wh

worty [1.4K]

u= 215 km/hr = 215 * 1000/ 3600 = aprx 60m/s
v=0
t=2.7sec
v= u - at
u= at
60/2.7 = 22.23 m/s^2

How many photons are absorbed during the dental x-ray?

MariettaO [177]

<span>E=hc/wav. len
E = (6.62 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8)/0.0275 x 10^-9
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15 J
To convert to eV divide by 1.6 x 10^-19
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15/1.6 x 10^-19 eV
E =45.36 x 10^3 eV
Th energy, E, of a single x-ray photon in eV is = 45.36keV.

Number of photons, n = total energy/ energy of photon
n = 3.85 x 10^-6/7.22182 x 10^-15
n = 5.33 x 10^8 photons </span>

Estimate the volume of a typical house (2050 feet squared in size and 10 feet tall) answer in units of meters squared

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

$Volume = 6248.48 m^{3}$

Explanation:

Given:

The area of the house $A = 2050\ ft^{2}$

The height of the house $h=10\ ft$

We need to find the volume of a typical house.

Solution:

We find the volume of the house by multiplying the area of the house and height of the house.

$Volume = Area\times height$

$Volume = A\times h$

Area and height of the house are known, so we substitute these value in above equation.

$Volume = 2050\times 10$

$Volume = 20500\ ft^{3}$

Now we convert the unit from feet to meter.

Divide the volume by 3.2808 for $m^{3}$

$Volume = \frac{20500}{3.2808}$

$Volume = 6248.48\ m^{3}$

Therefore, the volume of the house is $6248.48 m^{3}$

Why does a Ray of light passing through a glass slab not shown dispersion?

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

After refraction at two parallel faces of a glass slab, a ray of light emerges in a direction parallel to the direction of incidence of white light on the slab. As rays of all colours emerge in the same direction (of incidence of white light), hence there is no dispersion, but only lateral displacement.
