Answer: A resistor, which converts some electric energy to light and thermal energy.

Explanation:

A bulb filament is made of resistor which allows the current to pass. Usually the metal- Tungsten is used to make the filament. A filament is a wire in the bulb through which current passes and it glows.  Joule heating phenomenon is used. The electrical energy is converted to heat and light energy by the resistor when current passes through it.

Tungsten has a very high melting point, it is hard and high thermal stability. Thus, it makes the best bulb filament.

Answer:

Explanation:

well, since player b is obviously inadequate at athletics, it shows that player b is a woman, and because of this, she would not be able to hit the ball. The magnitude of the initial velocity would therefore be zero.

First you need to solve for time by using

d=(1/2)(a)(t^2)+(vi)t

1m=(1/2)(9.8)t^2 vertical initial velocity is 0m/s

t=.45 sec

Then you find the horizontal distance traveled by using

v=d/t

1.3m/s=d/.54sec

d=.585m

Then you need to find the time of player B by using

d=(1/2)(a)(t^2)+(vi)t

1.8m=(1/2)(9.8)(t^2) vertical initial velocity is 0

t=.61 sec

Finally to find player Bs initial horizontal velocity you use the horizontal equation

v=d/t

v=.585m/.61 sec

so v=.959m/s

Is NaCH an element? Why or why not?
amm1812
<span>NaCH is not an element, it is a compound. An element can be found and identified on the periodic table to elements. A compound is a combination of two of more elements. NaCH is composed of three elements: Na (sodium), C (carbon) and H (hydrogen), making it a compound.</span>

A ball thrown horizontally at vi = 30.0 m/s travels a horizontal distance of d = 55.0 m before hitting the ground. from what hei
tekilochka [14]
Assume no air resistance, and g = 9.8 m/s².

Let
x =  angle that the initial velocity makes with the horizontal.
u = 30 cos(x), horizontal velocity
v = 30 sin(x), vertical launch velocity

The horizontal distance traveled is 55 m, therefore the time of flight is
t = 55/[30 cos(x)] = 1.8333 sec(x)  s

With regard to the vertical velocity, and the time of flight,obtain
[30 sin(x)]*(1.8333 sec(x)) + (1/2)*(-9.8)*(1.8333 sec(x))² = 0
 55 tan(x) - 16.469 sec²x = 0
55 tan(x) - 16.469[1 + tan²x] = 0
16.469 tan²x - 55 tan(x) + 16.469 = 0
tan²x - 3.3396 tan(x) + 1 = 0

Solve with the quadratic formula.
tan(x) = 0.5[3.3396 +/- √(7.153)] = 3.007 or 0.3326
Therefore
x = 71.6° or x = 18.4°

The time of flight is
t = 1.8333 sec(x) = 5.8096 s or 1.932 s
The initial vertical velocity is
v = 30 sin(x) = 28.467 m/s or 9.468 m/s
The horizontal velocity is
u = 30 cos(x) = 9.467 m/s or 28.469 m/s

If t = 5.8096 s,
  u*t = 9.467*5.8096 = 55 m (Correct)
or
 u*t = 28.469*15.8096 = 165.4 m (Incorrect)

Therefore, reject x = 18.4°. The correct solution is
t = 5.8096 s
x = 71.6°
u = 9.467 m/s
v = 28.467 m/s

The height from which the ball was thrown is
h = 28.467*5.8096 - 0.5*9.8*5.8096² = -110.4 m
The ball was thrown from a height of 110.4 m

Answer: h = 110.4 m

Two lasers are shining on a double slit, with slit separation d. Laser 1 has a wavelength of d/20, whereas laser 2 has a wavelen
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

a) that laser 1 has the first interference closer to the central maximum

c) Δy = 0.64 m

Explanation:

The interference phenomenon is described by the expression

         d sin θ = m λ

Where d is the separation of the slits, λ the wavelength and m an integer that indicates the order of interference

For the separation of the lines we use trigonometry

        tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = y / x

In interference experiments the angle is very small

          tan θ = sin θ = y / x

         d y / x = m λ

a) and b) We apply the equation to the first laser

          λ = d / 20

          d y / x = m d / 20

          y = m x / 20

          y = 1 4.80 / 20

          y = 0.24 m

The second laser

        λ = d / 15

          d y / x = m d / 15

          y = m x / 15

          y = 0.32 m

We can see that laser 1 has the first interference closer to the central maximum

c) laser 1

They ask us for the second maximum m = 2

            y₂ = 2 4.8 / 20

            y₂ = 0.48 m

For laser 2 they ask us for the third minimum m = 3

In this case to have a minimum we must add half wavelength

         y₃ = (m + ½) x / 15

         m = 3

         y₃ = (3 + ½) 4.8 / 15

         y₃ = 1.12 m

        Δy = 1.12 - 0.48

        Δy = 0.64 m
