During an observation, it was noticed that light diffracts as it passes through small slits in a barrier. What does this evidenc

Answer:

It reveals that light is a wave

Explanation:

Diffraction is the property of a wave in which there is a bending of the wave about the corners of an obstacle or aperture into the geometrical shadow of the obstacle or aperture.

This simply implies that a wave bends or spreads out when it passes through openings. Since the light diffracts through small slits and diffraction has been shown to occur in water waves and sound waves, this property of diffraction can only be characteristic of a wave and thus, this evidence reveals that light is a wave.

Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract.
Zina [86]

The statement ‘Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract’ is false. The answer is letter B. The big bang theory suggests that the origin of the universe began with that exploded and expanded. It also states that the universe began in a single form of high condensed reactive matter and exploded forming the galaxies, planets, stars and other celestial bodies.

When its 75 kW (100 hp) engine is generating full power, a small single-engine airplane with mass 700 kg gains altitude at a rat
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

0.2289

Explanation:

Power required to climb= Fv where F is force and v is soeed. We know that F= mg hence Power, P= mgv and substituting 700 kg for m, 9.81 for g and 2.5 m/s for v then

P= 700*9.81*2.5=17167.5 W= 17.1675 kW

To express it as a fraction of 75 kw then 17.1675/75=0.2289 or 22.89%

The crankshaft in a race car goes from rest to 3000 rpm in 3.0 s . (a) What is the crankshaft's angular acceleration?
Talja [164]

Answer:

75 rotations

Explanation:

f0 = 0, f = 3000 rpm = 50 rps, t = 3 s

(a) use first equation of motion for rotational motion

w = w0 + α t

2 x 3.14 x 50 = 0 + α x 3

α = 104.67 rad/s^2

(b) Let θ be the angular displacement

use second equation of motion for rotational motion

θ = w0 t + 1/2 α t^2

θ = 0 + 0.5 x 104.67 x 3 x 3

θ = 471.015 rad

The angle turn in one rotation is 2 π radian.

Number of rotation = 471.015 / (2 x 3.14) = 75 rotations
