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.

An airplane flies in a loop (a circular path in a vertical plane) of radius 160 m . The pilot's head always points toward the ce
notka56 [123]

Answer:

a) 39.6 m/s b) 4123 N

Explanation:

a) At the top of the loop, all of the forces point downwards (force of gravity and normal force).

Fnet=ma

ma=m(v^2/R) (centripetal acceleration)

mg=m(v^2/R)

m cancels out (this is why pilot feels weightless) so,

g=(v^2/R)

9.8 m/s^2 = v^2/160 m

v^2=1568 m^2/s^2

v=39.6 m/s

b) At the bottom of the loop, the normal force and the force of gravity point in opposite directions. The normal force is the weight felt.

Convert 300 km/hr to m/s

300 km/hr=83.3 m/s

Convert pilot's weight into mass:

760 N = 77.55 kg

Fnet=ma

n-mg=m(v^2/R)

n=(77.55 kg)(((83.3 m/s)^2)/160 m)+(77.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)

n=3363.2 N+760 N=4123 N

Why does the number of dwarf planets recognized by astronomers in the solar system sometimes increase?
gregori [183]
Because sometimes it happens that they discover a dwarf planet
that nobody ever knew about before.  When that happens, they
ADD the new one to the list of known dwarf planets, and then the
total number of dwarf planets on the list increases by 1 .

The equation of a transverse wave traveling along a very long string is y 6.0 sin(0.020px 4.0pt), where x and y are expressed in
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

given

y=6.0sin(0.020px + 4.0pt)

the general wave equation moving in the positive directionis

y(x,t) = ymsin(kx -?t)

a) the amplitude is

ym = 6.0cm

b)

we have the angular wave number as

k = 2p /?

or

? = 2p / 0.020p

=1.0*102cm

c)

the frequency is

f = ?/2p

= 4p/2p

= 2.0 Hz

d)

the wave speed is

v = f?

= (100cm)(2.0Hz)

= 2.0*102cm/s

e)

since the trignometric function is (kx -?t) , sothe wave propagates in th -x direction

f)

the maximum transverse speed is

umax =2pfym

= 2p(2.0Hz)(6.0cm)

= 75cm/s

g)

we have

y(3.5cm ,0.26s) = 6.0cmsin[0.020p(3.5) +4.0p(0.26)]

= -2.0cm

A simple pendulum consists of a mass m (the "bob") hanging on the end of a thin string of length l and negligible mass. The bob
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The pendulum frequency  is (c) the same, or very close to it

Explanation:

The simple pendulum corresponds to a simple harmonic movement, to reach this approximation in the expression of the force the sine of the angle (θ) approaches an angle value, this is only true for small angles, generally less than 15º

Sine (15th) = 0.2588

The angle in radians is 15º π / 180º = 0.26180.2588 / 0.2618

The difference between these two values ​​is less than 1.2%

for smaller angle the difference is reduced more

Therefore, the period for both the 5º and 10º angles is almost the same
