<span>Infrared radiation also called as infrared light was discovered by Sir William Herschel in 1800.It is an electronic magnetic radiation with longer wavelengths than those of a visible light.It involves waves rather than particles. It lies at frequencies just below the frequencies of visible light.</span>

Calculate the power of the elevator if it can raise 290 kg of mass 30 flights of stairs (300 m) in 17 seconds
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Power =  50204 [watts]

Explanation:

We know that the power is defined by the following expression:

Power = Work/time

where:

Power [watts]

time [seconds]

The work done will be the following:

Work = Force * distance [Joules]

Force[Newtons]

distance[meters]

Force = mass* gravity

Force=290 [kg]*9.81[m/s^2] =2844.9[N]

Work = 2844.9[N]*300[m] = 853470[J]

Therefore

Power = 853470 / 17 = 50204 [watts]

Water of mass, m at 100 ℃ is added to 0.50 kg of water at 20 ℃ in a lagged calorimeter of thermal capacity 105 JK −1 . If the sp
lorasvet [3.4K]

The value of m given that the temperature of the mixture is 70°C is : 0.875 Kg

<h3>Determine the value of m </h3>

Applying the principle of energy conservation

Heat lost by the hot body = heat absorbed by the cold water + calorimeter

= m * 4200 * ( 100 - 70  ) = 0.50 * 4200 * ( 70 -20 ) + 105 * ( 70 -20 )

= m * 126000 = 110250

therefore ;

m = 110250 / 126000

  = 0.875 kg

Hence we can conclude that The value of m given that the temperature of the mixture is 70°C is : 0.875 Kg

Why is visible light safe to humans ?
MariettaO [177]

Explanation:

Visible light is the range of electromagnetic waves that humans can see. Anything that glows or gives off light makes waves of what we call visible light. The sun, light bulbs, candles and fire are all things that people automatically think of when it comes to light, but visible light comes from many sources and in many colors. Some other sources of visible light include: television and computer screens, glow sticks, and fireworks

What are the two segments of a comet?
Katyanochek1 [597]
Two segments of a comet are head and tail.

Head is main part of comet. Depending on how comet was created head can be made out of metal (such as iron) or stone. Also, head contains a lot of dust and water ice. When comet comes closer to Sun it's surface warms and ice starts to melt. Due to low pressure in space it almost instantly evaporates creating water vapour. This vapour causes the particles of dust to raise above surface of head and to fall back of the head. 

Tail is most viewed part of a comet. It best something that we can see with naked eye and that helps us to distinguish comet and all other celestial bodies. Tail is made out of two other tails. First is dust tail. It is created when dust particles rise from head of a comet and fall behing it. Gravity of a comet causes for these particles to follow head. Dust tail is always located opposite to direction of movement. Second tail is ionic tail. When solar particles (such as solar wind) hit comet they ionize atoms and molecules. This causes them to glow and produce light which we can see. Ionic tail is always opposite to direction in which Sun is located. When comet is far from Sun dust and ionic tail lay in same position. When comet is close to Sun dust and ionic tail not always lay in same position.
