anzhelika [568]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

We see objects in a dark room due to the emission of light photons which are sensitive to our eyes.

Darkness is simply a terminology used to describe the absence of light. Visible light to human is a component of the electromagnetic spectrum. Our eyes have receptors that picks the photons which light releases.

The particles of light are called photons.

  • When a torch is shines. It produces light due to emission of light by excitation of the metal in the bulb.
  • The light is in form of photons that spreads and travels in all direction in a room.
  • When they impinge on other bodies, they cause them to excite and release their own photons
  • Photons from the different parts helps to depict an object as it is.
  • The photo-receptors in our eyes picks up the photon and interprets it in our visual faculty.

An 81.5-kg man stands on a horizontal surface.
Elza [17]

Answer:

a)V= 0.0827 m³

b)P=181.11 x 10²  N/m²

Explanation:

Given that

m = 81.5 kg

Density ,ρ = 985 kg/m³

As we know that

Mass = Volume x Density

81.5 = V x 985

V= 0.0827 m³

The force exerted by weight = m g

 F= m g= 81.5 x 10 = 815 N      ( Take ,g= 10 m/s²)

Area ,A= 4.5 x 10⁻² m²

The Pressure P

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

P = \dfrac{815}{4.5\times 10^{-2}}\ N/m^2

P=181.11 x 10²  N/m²

A water gun fires 5 squirts per second. The speed of the squirts is 15 m/s.
stira [4]

Answer: 3.75 m

Explanation:

5 squirts in 1 second

So, 1 squirt in 1/5 second which is 0.2 second.

The difference in timing of two consecutive squirt is 0.2 second, so

time (t) = 0.2 s.

speed (s) = 15 m/s

Distance of separation (d) = ?

Now, formula for distance is

d = s × t

d = 15 × 0.2

d = 3.75 m
