Answer: Hello there!

While some substances will show fluorescence when putting inside a microwave, there are some other substances that will react under other situations, for example, some of them may react to UV light or X-rays.

So she may find that the substance is fluorescent by putting it in the microwave, but if the substance does not react, this doesn't mean that the substance is not fluorescent.

I disagree.
Many substances show fluorescence under ULTRAVIOLET light, NOT microwaves. :)

1. A block is pulled to the right at constant velocity by a 20N force acting at 30o above the horizontal. If the coefficient of
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

44.6 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are four forces on the block:

Weight force mg pulling down,

Normal force N pushing up,

Friction force Nμ pushing left,

and applied force F pulling right 30° above horizontal.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N + F sin 30° − mg = 0

N = mg − F sin 30°

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F cos 30° − Nμ = 0

F cos 30° = Nμ

N = F cos 30° / μ

Substitute:

mg − F sin 30° = F cos 30° / μ

mg = F sin 30° + (F cos 30° / μ)

Plug in values:

mg = 20 N sin 30° + (20 N cos 30° / 0.5)

mg = 44.6 N

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South

Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init
SOVA2 [1]

<em>Convert 1nanosecond in to its SI init</em>

<em>In SI units, nano is 1000th part of micro which in turn is 1000th part of mini which in turn is 1000th part of main unit. Now, when you affix nano to any unit, here in case, second, it means that you are referring to 1000th part of 1000th part of 1000th part of second or in short, 1000000000th(10^9) part of a second.</em>
