Increase because friction would decrease.

Coating the ramp with a smoother surface will decrease the friction. A decrease in friction will help to slide any object up the ramp easily. Thus, a lesser energy will be spent as compare to earlier. Hence, the ramp's efficiency will increase.

Sound travels at about 360 meters/sec. What is the wavelength of sound with a
ollegr [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

0.24 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Wave velocity ( v ) = 360 m / sec

Frequency ( f ) = 1500 Hz

We have to calculate wavelength ( λ ):

We know:

v = λ / t [ f = 1 / t ]

v = λ f

= > λ = v / f

Putting values here we get:

= > λ = 360 / 1500 m

= > λ = 36 / 150 m

= > λ = 0.24 m

Hence, wavelength of sound is 0.24 m.

Two capacitors, a 15 micro F and a 25 micro F, are connected in parallel to a 60 Hz source. The total capacitive reactance is :_
Stells [14]

Answer:

<em> 3980.89 ohms</em>

Explanation:

The capacitive reactance is expressed as;

X_c = \frac{1}{2 \pi fC}

f is the frequency

C is the capacitance of the capacitor

Given

f = 60H

C = C1+C2 (parallel connection)

C = 15μF + 25μF

C = 40μF

C = 40 * 10^{-6}F

Substitute into the formula:

X_c = \frac{1}{2(3.14)*60*40*10^{-6}}\\X_c =  \frac{1}{0.0002512}\\X_c = 3,980.89

<em>Hence the  total capacitive reactance is 3980.89 ohms</em>

At what wavelength would a star radiate the greatest amount of energy if the star has a surface temperature of 60,000 K?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

\lambda=4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m

Explanation:

We have,

The surface temperature of the star is 60,000 K

It is required to find the wavelength of a star that radiated greatest amount of energy. Wein's displacement law gives the relation between wavelength and temperature such that :

\lambda T=2.89\times 10^{-3}

Here,

\lambda = wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{2.89\times 10^{-3}}{60000}\\\\\lambda=4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m

So, the wavelength of the star is 4.81\times 10^{-8}\ m.
