Why do you see objects when you shine a flashlight in a dark room?​

Physics

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.

solmaris [256]

False The atmosphere's general circulation actually depicts the air flow around the world, not just an average.

<h3>What is global circulation in general?</h3>

The necessary transportation of heat from tropical to polar latitudes is performed by a system of winds that is known as the global circulation. Hadley cell, Ferrel cell, and Polar cell are the three cells in each hemisphere where air flows across the whole depth of the troposphere.

<h3>What type of nighttime air circulation pattern is typically linked with coastlines?</h3>

The wind turns around and blows out over the ocean at night because the land cools more quickly than the water. This is known as a land breeze. Additionally, the sun's rays have an impact on large-scale atmospheric circulation.

An ultrasonic ruler, such as the one discussed in Example 4 in Section 16.6, displays the distance between the ruler and an obje
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

reading would be 5.413 m.

Explanation:

Given:-

- The actual distance from ruler to an object is d = 24.0 m

- The adiabatic bulk modulus, B = 2.37 *10^9 Pa

- The density of seawater, ρ = 1025 kg/m^3

- The preset value of speed of sound in air, v_th = 343 m/s.

Find:-

Determine the distance reading that the ruler displays.

Solution:-

- We will first determine the actual speed of the sound ( v_a) in sea-water which can be determined from the following formula:

                            v_a = √ (B /  ρ )

- Plug in the values in the relationship above and compute v_a:

                            v_a = √ ( 2.37 *10^9 /  1025  )        

                            v_a = 1520.59038 m/s

- The time taken (t) for for the sound to travel from source(ruler) to an object which is d distance away.

                            d = v_a*t

                            t = d / v_a

                            t = 24.0 / 1520.59038

                            t = 0.01578 s

- The distance reading on the ruler would be preset speed (v_th) of sound in air multiplied by the time taken(t).

                           reading = v_th*t

                           reading = (343)*(0.01578)

                                         = 5.413 m

Allisa [31]

Answer:

The mass of the Al-duckie should be 30 kg.

Explanation:

We will use the first law of thermodynamics:

ΔU = m·Cv·ΔT

Since the specific heat of water is 4.185 J(gºC), the change in the water's internal energy would be:

ΔU = 100 kg · 4.185 J(gºC) · (42ºC - 38ºC) = 1674 KJ

Given that no heat is lost, all the internal energy that the water loses while cooling down will transfer to the duckie.  So, if the duckie has ΔU = 1674 KJ and its final temperature is the desired 38 ºC, we can calculate its mass using the first law again:

m=\frac{\Delta{U}}{Cv{\Delta{T}}}=\frac{1674}{0.9*[38-(-24)]}=30Kg

Which is not poor conductor?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Metal vase

Explanation:

Pure water is not a good conductor, and neither is plastic or cotton. Metal is the only one of the four that actually is a good conductor. For example, lighting hitting metal, this happens because the lightning connects to anything that has some kind of conductant.
