Answer:

The horizontal force the sprinter exerts on the starting blocks is 705 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the sprinter, m = 47 kg

magnitude of the his horizontal acceleration, aₓ = 15 m/s²

The horizontal force the sprinter exerts on the starting blocks to produce this acceleration, is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion.

∑Fₓ = maₓ

∑Fₓ = 47 x 15

∑Fₓ = 705 N

Therefore, the horizontal force the sprinter exerts on the starting blocks is 705 N

Light does not pass through some materials. What do you think happens
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon)

A photon is a quantum of EM radiation. Its energy is given by E = hf and is related to the frequency f and wavelength λ of the radiation by. E=hf=hcλ(energy of a photon) E = h f = h c λ (energy of a photon) , where E is the energy of a single photon and c is the speed of light.

What is the overall moment?
Setler79 [48]
A moment causes a rotation about or axis. If the moment is to be taken about a point due to a force F, then in order for a moment to develop, the line of action cannot pass through that point...... the total moment was zero because the moment arm was zero as well

Qué ocurre con el espectro cuando se interpone el celofán de colores?
Travka [436]

Answer: You will only see the color that cellophane lets through

Explanation:

Let's begin by the fact the whole electromagnetic spectrum is known as "white light", which is composed by a range of colors (wavelengths).

Now, if we have a source with white light (the Sun, for example) and we interpose a cellophane of any color (let's choose red), this cellophane will act as a filter and will only let pass the color of the cellophane.

This is because the filter will absorb the other colors of the spectrum.
