A 1200 w microwave oven transforms 1.8x10(to the power of 5) J of energy while reheating some food. Calculate how long the food

was in the microwave, in mins!? (Please show steps, thanks)

1200 watts = 1200 joules per second

(1.8 x 10⁵ joules) / (1,200 joules/sec) = 150 sec = <em>2.5 minutes

Which two possible explanations does the video give for why white light changes into colored light? Color is an impurity added t

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

White light contains seven colors, which are separated by the prism.

White light reacts with chemicals in the air to produce seven colors.

Explanation:

It was first observed by Sir Issac Newton, that when white light is passed through a prism, an elongated, coloured patch of light is obtained on a screen placed behind the prism. The seven colours obtained constitute the spectrum of white light.

In nature, white light is separated into its constituent wavelengths when white light interacts with substances in the atmosphere.

(a) If a proton with a kinetic energy of 6.2 MeV is traveling in a particle accelerator in a circular orbit with a radius of 0.5

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is $3.02\times10^{-11}$ .

Explanation:

Suppose Electromagnetic radiation is emitted by accelerating charges. The rate at which energy is emitted from an accelerating charge that has charge q and acceleration a is given by

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}$

Given that,

Kinetic energy = 6.2 MeV

Radius = 0.500 m

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

$a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}mr}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{6.2\times10^{6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times0.51}$

$a=2.32\times10^{15}\ m/s^2$

We need to calculate the rate at which it emits energy because of its acceleration is

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{(1.6\times10^{-19})^2\times(2.3\times10^{15})^2}{6\pi\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(3\times10^{8})^3}$

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=3.00\times10^{-23}\ J/s$

The energy in ev/s

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{3.00\times10^{-23}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}\ J/s$

$\dfrac{dE}{dt}=1.875\times10^{-4}\ ev/s$

We need to calculate the fraction of its energy that it radiates every second

$\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=\dfrac{1.875\times10^{-4}}{6.2\times10^{6}}$

$\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=3.02\times10^{-11}$

Hence, The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is $3.02\times10^{-11}$ .

Why is Jupiter's rotation dangerous for human survivability?

krok68 [10]

Answer:

1. Why is Jupiter's rotation dangerous for human survivability?

<h2>=> </h2>

<em><u>Jupiter is the fastest rotating planet in our solar system. One day lasts about 9.5 Earth hours. This creates powerful winds that can whip around the planet at more than 300 mph. About 75 miles below the clouds, you reach the limit of human exploration.</u></em>

2 .Why is Jupiter's planet axis tilt an issue for human survivability?

<h2>=></h2>

<em><u>Jupiter, like Venus, has an axial tilt of only 3 degrees, so there is literally no difference between the seasons. ... The length of each season is roughly three years. Jupiter is the fastest spinning planet in our Solar System, which causes the planet to flatten at the poles and bulge at the </u></em><em><u>equator.</u></em>

3.Why is the diameter of Jupiter an issue for human survivability?

<h2>=></h2>

<em><u>Since </u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u>The </u></em><em><u>Jupiter </u></em><em><u>is </u></em><em><u>so </u></em><em><u>huge </u></em><em><u>in </u></em><em><u>mass</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u>The </u></em><em><u>central</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>force</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>toward</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the </u></em><em><u>centre </u></em><em><u>will </u></em><em><u>be </u></em><em><u>high</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>and</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>we'll</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>be </u></em><em><u>forced</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>toward</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>it </u></em><em><u>causing</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>Several</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>problems</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

i)Distinguish between different methods of charging. ii) You are provided with a positively charged gold leaf electroscope. Stat

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

On rubbing a glass rod with silk, the electrons from the glass rod get transferred to the silk. The silk now has an excess of electrons and so is negatively-charged. On the other hand, the glass rod is deficient in electrons and hence is positively-charged.

In the above case, the silk undergoes negative electrification.

Now, when the positively charged glass rod is touched on the disc of a negatively charged gold leaf electroscope, the electrons shifts towards rod, hence amount of charge on gold leaves decreases and the divergence between the gold leaves decreases as unlike charges attract each other.

Hence, the divergence decreases when a glass rod rubbed with silk is brought near the disc of negatively charged electroscope.

hope it helps pls mark me as brainliest
