Answer:

Explanation:

This is a phenomena by a black body. A black body is reckoned to absorb all energy it receives this is because it gives off energy of different frequency ranges hence as the frequency increases the energy rises.

An air-track glider attached to a spring oscillates between the 10 cm mark and the 60 cm mark on the track. The glider completes

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

a) Time period is 3.3 seconds

b) The frequency is 0.3030 Hz

c) amplitude is 0.25 m

d) maximum speed is 0.476 m/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) Period

Time Period T = Time taken for one oscillation

T = 33s / 10 = 3.3 seconds

Therefore, Time period is 3.3 seconds

b) Frequency

we know that frequency is the inverse of time period

so;

Frequency f = 1/T = 1 / 3.3 s

Frequency f = 0.3030 Hz

Therefore, The frequency is 0.3030 Hz

c) amplitude

amplitude A = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( 60 cm - 10 cm )

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 50 cm

A = 25 cm

A = 0.25 m

Therefore, amplitude is 0.25 m

d) maximum speed of the glider

maximum speed $V_{max}$ = ωA

and ω = 2π/T

so maximum speed $V_{max}$ = $\frac{2\pi }{T}$ A

so we substitute

so maximum speed $V_{max}$ = $\frac{2\pi }{3.3}$ × 0.25 m

so maximum speed $V_{max}$ = 0.476 m/s

Therefore, maximum speed is 0.476 m/s

Why is it safe to watch an eclipse of the Moon but not an eclipse of the Sun

gavmur [86]

A solar eclipse occurs when the moon crosses in front of the Sun, blocking some or all of its rays. A lunar eclipse happens when the moon is directly behind the earth, blocking the moon from receiving light. The only light comes from the light on earth's reflected shadow.

You can look at a lunar eclipse because there is very little light or none at all. You can't look at a solar eclipse because you are looking directly at the sun unless it is complete. Before totality, only some of the Sun is blocked, causing your pupils dilate to let in more light. Since they do this, more of the Sun's rays can be let in to the eye, which effectively allows your eyes to burn.

Some doctors and eye care specialists say that after someone complains of blindness after looking at a solar eclipse unaided, they can see what the Sun and moon looked like at the time that they looked at it, as it is burned onto their retinas.

Which is the correct answer?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Point A

Explanation:

The work done by stretching or compressing a spring is given by E=1/2kx²

The potential energy is numerically equal to the work done.

This means that the higher the bigger the value of the extension, x, the higher the energy contained.

In this scenario the modulus of x is considered.

Among the given values of x the modulus of -5 is the largest.

thus it gives the highest value of energy.
