Answer:

Violet

Explanation:

The visible spectrum of EM spectrum composed of mainly seven colors that possess different wavelengths. It is called visible spectrum because it is only part of EM spectrum that can be seen by the human eyes.

These colors from longest to shortest wave length can be written as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Thus , we can say that violet color is color with least wavelength.

In an experiment, a variable, position-dependent force F(x)F(x) is exerted on a block of mass 1.0kg1.0kg that is moving on a hor

leonid [27]

Answer:

The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of F(f).

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 1.0 kg

Dependent force = F(x)

Frictional force = F(f)

Suppose, the following information would students need to test the hypothesis,

(A) The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5 and the value of F(f).

(B) The function a(t) for the time interval of travel and the value of F(f).

(D) The function a(t) for the time interval of travel, the time it takes the block to move 5 m, and the value of F(f).

(E) The block's initial velocity, the time it takes the block to move 5 m, and the value of F(f).

We know that,

The work done by a force is given by,

$W=\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{F(x)\ dx}$ .....(I)

Where, $F(x)$ = net force

We know, the net force is the sum of forces.

So, $\sum{F}=ma$

According to question,

We have two forces F(x) and F(f)

So, the sum of these forces are

$F(x)+(-F(f))=ma$

Here, frictional force is negative because F(f) acts against the F(x)

Now put the value in equation (I)

$W=\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}$

We need to find the value of $\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}$

Using newton's second law

$\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}=\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{ma\ dx}$ ...(II)

We know that,

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

Put the value of a in equation (II)

$\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}=\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{m\dfrac{dv}{dt}dx}$

$\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}=\int_{v_{0}}^{v_{f}}{mv\ dv}$

$\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}=\dfrac{mv_{f}^2}{2}+\dfrac{mv_{0}^2}{2}$

Now, the work done by the net force on the block is,

$W=\dfrac{mv_{f}^2}{2}+\dfrac{mv_{0}^2}{2}$

The work done by the net force on the block is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the block.

Hence, The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of F(f).

(C) is correct option.

Which is likely to be more common in our Galaxy: white dwarfs or black holes? Why?

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

White dwarfs are likely to be much more common. The number of stars decreases with increasing mass, and only the most massive stars are likely to complete their lives as black holes. There are many more stars of the masses appropriate for evolution to a white dwarf.

Consult Multiple-Concept Example 5 to review the concepts on which this problem depends. A light bulb emits light uniformly in a

den301095 [7]

Answer:

a. 0.332 W/m² b. 11.2 V/m c. 15.8 V/m

Explanation:

(a) the average intensity of the light,

Intensity, I = P/A where P = average power = 150.0 W and A = area through which the power emits = 4πr² where r = distance from bulb = 6 m.

So, I = P/A = P/4πr²

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

I = P/4πr²

I = 150.0 W/4π(6 m)²

I = 150.0 W/4π(36 m²)

I = 150.0 W/452.39 m²

I = 0.332 W/m²

(b) the rms value of the electric field,

Since Intensity, I = E²/cμ₀ where E = rms value of electric field, c = speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s and μ₀ = permeability of free space = 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m.

Making E subject of the formula, we have

E² = Icμ₀

E = √(Icμ₀)

Since I = 0.332 W/m², substituting the other terms into the equation, we have

E = √(0.332 W/m² × 3 × 10⁸ m/s × 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m.)

E = √(12.5 × 10)

E = √125 V/m

E = 11.18 V/m

E ≅ 11.2 V/m

(c) the peak value of the electric field.

The peak value of electric field, E' is gotten from E = E'/√2 where E = rms value of electric field.

So, E' = √2E

= √2 × 11.2 V/m

= 15.81 V/m

≅ 15.8 V/m
