Suppose that sunlight is incident upon both a pair of reading glasses and a pair of sunglasses. Which pair would you expect to b

Answer: the pair of sunglasses

Explanation:

A good pair of sunglasses are composed of abosorbent lenses that filter the sunlight that affects the eyes retina, especially ultraviolet (UV). So, these sunglasses are used to reduce the amount of light or radiant energy transmitted.

On the other hand, normal reading glasses (in which the lens glass has not been treated to filter ultraviolet sunlight) will let UV rays pass through.

Therefore, if both glasses are exposed to sunlight, the sunglasses are expected to be warmer by absorbing that radiant energy and preventing it from reaching the eyes.

An airplane accelerates down a runmway at 2.9 m/s/s for 38.5 seconds
Serhud [2]

Given,

the initial velocity = 0 m /s.

acceleration = 3.20 m / s^2

time = 32.8 s

According to laws of motion.

s = ut + 1/2 at ^2

s = 1/2 at²

s=1/2(3.20)(32.8)²

s= 1721.344 m

the distance traveled before takeoff is 1731.3m

A plane has a takeoff speed of 88.3 m/s and can accelerate at a rate of 3m/s to reach that speed. How long does the plane take t
Mrrafil [7]

v = \frac{d}{t}

and

a = \frac{v}{t}

We have acceleration and velocity so:

3 = \frac{v}{t}

88.3 = \frac{d}{t}

In the acceleration equation we can isolate for v and then plug it back into the other equation to solve...

So...

3t = v

88.3 = 3t

Divide by three and

t = 29.4 s

What types of media can S-waves travel through
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The second type of body wave is the S wave or secondary wave, which is the second wave you feel in an earthquake. An S wave is slower than a P wave and can only move through solid rock, not through any liquid medium.

A rock is thrown straight up with an initial velocity of 19.6 m/s. What time interval elapses between the rock’s being thrown an
inna [77]

Answer:

It will take 4 sec rock to comes its original point

Explanation:

It is given that the rock comes to its original point

So displacement S = 0 m

Initial velocity u = 19.6 m/sec

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

According to second equation of motion h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

0=19.6\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8t^2

19.6=4.9t

t = 4 sec
