Explain why frog will not look green under the red light?

Physics

IrinaVladis [17]3 years ago

A frog can be many different colours. It appears green under normal 'white' light because it absorbs all the other colours in the light's spectrum apart from green. It reflects the green light back and that is picked up by your eye.

If the light is red, there is no green in the spectrum of the light, only red. So, the red light will be absorbed and there is no green to be reflected back for you to see. Therefore, the frog will not look green.

A man is 9m behind the door of a train when it starts moving with acceleration of 2m/s2. The man runs at full speed . How far do
Lina20 [59]
Distance run by the train at the moment t:


                 x = a * t^2 / 2 

             
Distance run by the man, D


                 D = 9 m + distance run by the train

                 D = 9m + a(t^2) / 2


Velocity of the man, V = D/t => D = V*t


Equal D:

V*t = 9m + a(t^2) / 2


Now, you have to make an additional assumption. It is that when the man reaches the traing their velocities are the same. This if because, if the train is faster, the man will not reach it, and if the train is slower then he will pass the train (which is an unnecessary waste of effort from the man)


So, the best contition is that the speed of the train equals the speed of the man.


The speed of the train follows the equation of the uniformly accelerated motion: V = a.t


So from substitute that V in the equation V*t = 9m + a(t^2)/2

    
 => (at) t = 9m + a(t^2) / 2


=> a(t^2) - a(t^2) / 2 = 9m


=> a(t^2) / 2 = 9m


=> (t^2) = 9m * 2 / a = 9m * 2 / ( 2 m/s^2) = 9 s^2


=> t = 3 s


=> D = 9m + a(t^2) / 2 = 9 m + 2(m/s^2) (3s)^2 / 2 = 9m + 9 m = 18 m


=> V = D / t = 18 m / 3s = 6m/s


Answer:   

The man ran 18 m.

He got into the train after 3 s

The full speed is 6 m/s

A certain strain of bacteria doubles in number each 20 days. Two of these bacteria are placed on
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply time dilution relation of relativity

t  = \frac{t_0}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } }

1000 = \frac{t_0}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } }

1000 = \frac{t_0}{\sqrt{1-\frac{0.995^2}{1} } }

t₀ = 1000 x .09987

= 99.87  days .

doubling time  = 20 days

no of doubling time in 20 days ;    n = 99.87 / 20

n = 4.9935

n = n_0\times 2^n ; n₀ is initial number , n is number finally .

= 2 x 2⁴°⁹⁹³⁵

= 64 approx .

a wave travels at a speed of 793 m/s and has a wavelength of 2.3 meters. calculate the frequency of the wave​
Savatey [412]

Answer:

344.8 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is given by:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where

v is the speed of the wave

\lambda is its wavelength

Here we have

v = 793 m/s

\lambda=2.3 m

Substituting into the equation, we find

f=\frac{793 m/s}{2.3 m}=344.8 Hz

If you launch an object in space, it
MArishka [77]

Answer:

I believe this represents Newton's first law of motion. Any object in motion will continue to move until a force stops it, be it friction or a physical object.
