Explain why the types of technology valued can vary.

Over time, the types of technology can vary and be improved upon so that more advanced techniques become more valued. This could be the situation with mining whereby back in the 1500's in underground mines the rock was broken by fire setting ie lighting a fire below the rock face to heat up the rock and then throwing cold water on it to crack it, so that it could be dug by hand. With the advent of explosives, this all changed so that the rock could be blasted. The increase in advance rates for an underground heading have thus gone from 5-20 feet per month to up to 300meters (984 ft) per month for a 24/7 mining operation, which is a huge improvement.

ANSWER: Over the years, technology has advanced a lot and has made our lives simpler. We have been seen technological advancements in almost everywhere starting from our workplace to our homes and also at streets.

A classic example of technological advancement can be how people communicate to each other. People previously had only the option of railroads for traveling purposes to distant places. Later, with the introduction of airline industry, people started traveling across countries for many reasons like for business meetings, meeting a relative etc. The entire crowd of business travelers shifted to other technological innovation to save their precious time and money. The technology that replaced the need to travel far across countries was Video Conferencing. A huge number of business travelers opted for this innovation in technology. This advancement also suppressed the cell phone industry which only allowed voice calls at that time.

Also, people used to write mails and used to send telegrams. The telephone came into scenario and gave people an option to communicate faster which previously used to take days to send a message. Then in the 1990's, the email was introduced and gave everyone a platform to send instant and free messages. This gained popularity in 1996-97 with Hotmail services. Later on, it got updated with instant messaging services across the globe like Whatsapp services. Thus, this is how technology varies and are valued accordingly by their usage in that era and the types of technologies grew independently in their respective fields and replaced the outdated ones.

Suppose a ray of light traveling in a material with an index of refraction n a reaches an interface with a material having an in
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: C and D

Explanation: One of the first rule for total internal reflection to occur is that the ray must move from a dense to a less dense medium, hence refractive index of medium a must be greater than that of b.

When a ray moves from a dense to a less dense medium, the refracted ray moves away from the normal thus increasing the size of the angle of refraction (total internal refraction occurs when the angle of refraction is 90° and the angle of incidence at this point is known as the critical angle), hence the angle of incidence must be greater than the critical angle.

These points verifies option C and D

1. What is energy? What can an object with energy do?
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion. If we want to accelerate an object, then we must apply a force. Applying a force requires us to do work. After work has been done, energy has been transferred to the object, and the object will be moving with a new constant speed.

How is the earth changing??? How would you answer this question at this point???
Vika [28.1K]
Scientists have been observing Earth for a long time. They use NASA satellites and other instruments to collect many types of information about Earth's land, atmosphere, ocean and ice. This information tells us that Earth's climate is getting warmer.


Extra:

Extra greenhouse gases in our atmosphere are the main reason that Earth is getting warmer. Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane, trap the Sun's heat in Earth's atmosphere.

It's normal for there to be some greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. They help keep Earth warm enough to live on. But too many greenhouse gases can cause too much warming.

The burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil increase the amount of CO2 in our air. This happens because the burning process combines carbon with oxygen in the air to make CO2.

It's important that we monitor CO2 levels, because too much CO2 can cause too much warming on Earth. Several NASA missions have instruments that study CO2 in the atmosphere.

A spring of force constant 1500 Nm-l is acted
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1.876 J

Explanation:

First, let’s calculate the compression of the spring from the Hooke’s law:

F=kx,

here, F=75 N is the force acted on the spring, k=1500 N⁄m is the force constant of the spring, x is the compression of the spring.

Then, we get:

x=F/k=(75 N)/(1500 N/m)=0.05 m.

Finally, we can find the potential energy stored in the spring:

PE=1/2 kx^2=1/2∙1500 N/m∙(0.05 m)^2=1.875 J.

correct my answer if it's wrong ^^
