5 0

Answer:

Subtract the kinetic energy at the bottom from the potential energy loss. The remainder becomes frictional heat.

Potential energy loss:

M g H = 21.7*9.81*3.5 = 745.1 J

Kinetic energy at bottom of slide:

= (1/2) M v^2 = 52.5 J

Why are certain metalloids useful in today's technological equipment?
fgiga [73]

The answer is B.

Metalloids are elements that posses some of the characteristics of non-metals and also some of the characteristics of metals.

The semiconductivity property of metalloids such as Siliconium, Geranium have been leveraged to the maximum and these are used in LCD screens, televisions and many other technological appliances.

What is NOT a major factor affecting climate?
professor190 [17]

B Longitude

Explanation:

The line of longitude or longitude does not affects climates.

Climate is the weather condition over a place for a long period of time. It usually takes several years to delineate the climate of an area.

  •  Longitude is the distance on the earth surface that runs form east to west.
  • All lines of longitude are all great circles.
  • Latitude are lines from north to south on the earth surface. Only the equator is a great circle.
  • Latitude affects climate. In fact based on the division of lines of latitude on can predict climatic patterns on earth.
  • Proximity to water bodies also affects climatic condition because of the effect of land and sea breeze and other climatic factors.
  • Elevation affects climate a whole lot. Physiography of a place determines the weather to a very large extent.

A hair dryer is basically a duct of constant diameter in which a few layers of electric resistors are placed. A small fan pulls
nekit [7.7K]

Given:

density of air at inlet, \rho_{a} = 1.20 kg/m_{3}

density of air at inlet, \rho_{b} = 1.05 kg/m_{3}

Solution:

Now,

\dot{m} = \dot{m_{a}} = \dot{m_{b}}

\rho_{a} A v_{a} = \rho _{b} Av_{b}                        (1)

where

A = Area of cross section

v_{a} = velocity of air at inlet

v_{b} = velocity of air at outlet

Now, using eqn (1), we get:

\frac{v_{b}}{v_{a}} = \frac{\rho_{a}}{\rho_{b}}

\frac{v_{b}}{v_{a}} = \frac{1.20}{1.05} = 1.14

% increase in velocity = 1.14\times 100 =114%

which is 14% more

Therefore % increase in velocity is 14%

White light falls on a yellow filter,if:
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

all colours are absorbed except for the colour of the filter.

Explanation:

When white light passes through a coloured filter, all colours are absorbed except for the colour of the filter. For example, an orange filter transmits orange light but absorbs all the other colours. If white light is shone on an orange filter, only the orange wavelengths will be observed by the human eye.
