Consider a stone at rest on the ground. There are two interactions that involve the stone. One is between the stone and the Eart

h; Earth pulls down on the stone and the stone pulls up on the Earth. What is the other interaction? 1. All are wrong. 2. between the ground and the Earth 3. between the ground and air 4. between the Earth and air 5. between the stone and the ground

5. between the stone and the ground

for a stone at rest on the ground, we have two forces acting on the stone. first is the force on the stone by the earth due to gravity of earth. second is the force applied by the ground in upward direction to balance the force of gravity on the stone.

so first interaction is between earth and stone : earth pulls stone towards it and stone pulls earth towards it by same amount of force.

second interaction is between stone and ground : ground push the stone in upward direction and stone push the ground in down direction by same amount of force.

hence the correct choice is

5. between the stone and the ground

At sunset, red light travels horizontally through the doorway in the western wall of your beach cabin, and you observe the light
Nady [450]

Answer:

9.8\cdot 10^{-6}m

Explanation:

For light passing through a single slit, the position of the nth-minimum from the central bright fringe in the diffraction pattern is given by

y=\frac{n \lambda D}{d}

where

\lambda is the wavelength

D is the distance of the screen from the slit

d is the width of the slit

In this problem, we have

\lambda=700 nm = 7.00\cdot 10^{-7}m is the wavelength of the red light

D = 14 m is the distance of the screen from the doorway

d = 1.0 m is the width of the doorway

Substituting n=1 into the equation, we find the distance between the central bright fringe and the first-order dark fringe (the first minimum):

y=\frac{(1)(7.00\cdot 10^{-7} m)(14 m)}{1.0 m}=9.8\cdot 10^{-6}m

Suppose a ball is dropped from shoulder height, falls, makes a perfectly elastic collision with the floor, and rebounds to shoul
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:Same magnitude

Explanation:

When ball is dropped from shoulder height h then velocity at the bottom is given by

v_1=\sqrt{2gh}

if it makes elastic collision then it will acquire the same velocity and riser up to the same height

If m is the mass of ball then impulse imparted is given by

J=m(v_2-v_1)

J=2m\sqrt{2gh}

Thus impulse imparted by gravity and Floor will have same magnitude of impulse but direction will be opposite to each other.
