Answer:

(A) $F_N - mg\cos\theta$

Explanation:

The net force perpendicular to the surface of the incline is the sum of the gravity force component, which is mgcos(theta), and the reactionary normal force caused by the surface of the incline. The sum is F_N - mgcos(theta) and is usually 0 which is why the object is not moving perpendicularly to the surface of the incline.

Glass absorbs ultraviolet (UV) rays from the Sun. Would a fraction of the incident UV light be reflected from the air/glass boun

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Any transparent surface in practical is neither a perfect absorber of electromagnetic waves neither a perfect reflector. Generally all the transparent surfaces reflect some amount of irradiation and the other parts are absorbed and transmitted.

<u>That is given by as relation:</u>

$\alpha+\rho+\tau=1$

where:

$\alpha=$ absorptivity which is defined as the ratio of the absorbed radiation to the total irradiation

$\rho=$ reflectivity is defined as the ratio of reflected radiation to the total irradiation

$\tau=$ transmittivity is defined as the ratio of total transmitted radiation to the total irradiation

An eagle flying at 15 m/s has 600 J of kinetic energy. About how much is the eagles mass?

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

5.33kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Velocity of eagle = 15m/s

Kinetic energy of the eagle = 600J

Unknown:

Mass of the eagle = ?

Solution:

The kinetic energy of any body is the energy due to the motion of a body. There are different forms of kinetic energy some of which are thermal, mechanical, electrical energy.

The formula of kinetic energy is given as;

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2}$ m v²

where m is the mass, V is the velocity

substitute the parameters in the equation;

600 = $\frac{1}{2}$ x m x 15²

225m = 1200

m = $\frac{1200}{225}$ = 5.33kg

A person with mass mp = 76 kg stands on a spinning platform disk with a radius of R = 1.98 m and mass md = 191 kg. The disk is i

nalin [4]

<span>1.7 rad/s The key thing here is conservation of angular momentum. The system as a whole will retain the same angular momentum. The initial velocity is 1.7 rad/s. As the person walks closer to the center of the spinning disk, the speed will increase. But I'm not going to bother calculating by how much. Just remember the speed will increase. And then as the person walks back out to the rim to the same distance that the person originally started, the speed will decrease. But during the entire walk, the total angular momentum remained constant. And since the initial mass distribution matches the final mass distribution, the final angular speed will match the initial angular speed.</span>
