Olivia wants to find out whether a substance will fluoresce. She says she should put it in a microwave oven. Do you agree with h

Answer:

I disagree with her because many substances show fluorescence under ultraviolet light, not microwaves.

Answer:

In disagreement

Explanation:

Fluorescence can be defined as the phenomenon by which an object emits visible light when placed in front of ultraviolet light. In fluorescence, the absorbed light increases the energy band of the electrons, causing them to go into a more excited state. The electrons, before they release the absorbed energy in the form of light, lose a part of the energy due to the vibration of the molecules. When they return to their initial state, the electrons will emit light.

While microwaves are electromagnetic waves whose frequency is high, and are used for the transmission of high-speed telegraphic signals and for the communication of satellites and do not emit light.

5. An object has a momentum of 4,000 kg-m/s and a mass of 115 kg. It crashes into another object that has a mass of 100 kg, and
marishachu [46]

Answer:

D. 18.60

Explanation:

By the law of conservation, the momentum is neither loss nor gained but instead transfered. When they crash into each other, and stick, they combine to create a total mass of 215 kg. Since the momentum is transfered, the two objects, combined, have a total momentum of 4000 kg-m/s. We know that momentum equals mass times velocity. You then divide 4000 by 215 and get approximately 18.6 m/s

What is the relationship between temperature and altitude in the stratosphere? (2 points).
stealth61 [152]
As altitude increases, temperature increases. The stratosphere is the part of the atmosphere that starts in the tropopause and ends in the estratopause. In the troposphere, the air is close to the Earth surface. The air surface can absorb more sunlight energy than the air, so the Earth surface heats the air. As you go higher, the distance to the Earth surface is higher, so the temperature is lower. The troposphere ends in the tropopause, where this trend changes. In the estratopause, there is a lot of ozone, which absorbs the dangerous UV radiation and converts into heat. That heat warms the air. So the air which is close to the estratopause is warm because of the heat released by the ozone reactions. The tropopause is far from the Earth surface and far from the ozone layer, that’s why it is cold. So the tropopause is cold and the estratopause is warm, which means: the air becomes warmer <span>as you rise above the tropopause until you get to the estratopause.</span>

I don't know the answer can anybody help?
Anna007 [38]

We don't have enough information in the picture to answer that question.

The disembodied right hand could just as well grab the wire in the other direction, with the thumb pointing to the right.

Maybe if we knew WHY the hand is holding the wire in this direction, and what other electrical phenomenon may be involved, we might be able to say something about the current in the wire.

(Actually, we don't even know if it's a wire. It might be a soda straw, a coat hanger, or a pool cue.)

A 10 kg box hangs from a rope. What is the tension in the rope (in Newtons) if the box is stationary
Archy [21]

Answer:

T = 98 N

Explanation:

The gravity of the earth is known to be 9.8 m/s²

Data:

  • m = 10 kg
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • T = ?

Use formula:

  • \boxed{\bold{T=m*g}}

Replace and solve:

  • \boxed{\bold{T=10\ kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{T=98\ N}}}

The tension in the rope is <u>98 Newtons.</u>

Greetings.
