Correct answer: D). Green

Under the green color of a light plant will be least like to make food, as the plant themselves contains a green color pigment in their leaves called as chlorophyll.

It absorbs the red and blue color light and reflects back the green colored light back. This the reason why plants appear green to us.

The different color of light help plant to achieve a different goal, for example, red light combined with blue light and allow the plant to flower.

A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.38-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 5.08 cm and has a force

yawa3891 [41]

(a) 1.43 m/s

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

The initial total energy stored in the spring-mass system is

$E=U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

where

k = 7.91 N/m is the spring constant

$x=5.08 cm = 0.0508 m$

Substituting,

$E=\frac{1}{2}(7.91)(0.0508)^2=0.0102 J$

The final kinetic energy of the ball is equal to the energy released by the spring + the work done by friction:

$E+W_f=K$

where

$K_f=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ is the kinetic energy of the ball, with

$m=5.38 g = 5.38\cdot 10^{-3} kg$ being the mass of the ball

v being the final speed

$W_f = -F_f d$ is the work done by friction (which is negative since the force of friction is opposite to the motion), where

$F_f = 0.0323 N$ is force of friction

d = 14.5 cm = 0.145 m is the displacement

Substituting,

$W_f = -(0.0323)(0.145)=-4.68\cdot 10^{-3} J$

So, the kinetic energy of the ball as it leaves the cannon is

$K_f = E+W_f = 0.0102 - 4.68\cdot 10^{-3}=0.00552 J$

And so the final speed is

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K_f}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.00552)}{0.00538}}=1.43 m/s$

(b) +5.08 cm

The speed of the ball is maximum at the instant when all the elastic potential energy stored in the spring has been released: in fact, after that moment, the spring does no longer release any more energy, so the kinetic energy of the ball from that moment will start to decrease, due to the effect of the work done by friction.

The elastic potential energy of the spring is

$U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

And this has all been released when it becomes zero, so when x = 0 (equilibrium position of the spring). However, the spring was initially compressed by 5.08 cm, so the ball has maximum speed when

x = +5.08 cm

with respect to the initial point.

(c) 1.78 m/s

The maximum speed is the speed of the ball at the moment when the kinetic energy is maximum, i.e. when all the elastic potential energy has been released.

As we calculated in part (a), the total energy released by the spring is

E = 0.0102 J

The work done by friction here is just the work done to cover the distance of

d = 5.08 cm = 0.0508 m

Therefore

$W_f = -(0.0323)(0.0508)=-1.64\cdot 10^{-3} J$

So, the kinetic energy of the ball at the point of maximum speed is

$K_f = E+W_f = 0.0102 - 1.64\cdot 10^{-3}=0.00856 J$

And so the final speed is

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K_f}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.00856)}{0.00538}}=1.78 m/s$

A lawn sprinkler sprays water 8 feet at full pressure as it rotates 360 degrees. if the water pressure is reduced by 50%, what i

lina2011 [118]

The area of the sprinkles can be determined through the area of a circle that is pi * r^2 in which the given dimensions above are the radii, r. The second scenarios radius is only half of the original, that is 4 ft. In this case, we can compute the area of the second again. We calculate next the difference of two areas of circles.

A viscous fluid is flowing through two horizontal pipes. They have the same length, although the radius of one pipe is three tim

Rudik [331]

The conservation of the mass of fluid through two sections (be they A1 and A2) of a conduit (pipe) or current tube establishes that the mass that enters is equal to the mass that exits. Mathematically the input flow must be the same as the output flow,

$Q_1 = Q_2$

The definition of flow is given by

$Q =VA$

Where

V = Velocity

A = Area

The units of the flow of flow are cubic meters per second, that is to say that if there is a continuity, the volume of input must be the same as that of output, what changes if the sections are modified are the proportions of speed.

In this way

$Q_A = Q_B$

$Q_B = 2.94*10^2 m^3/s$

Calculate the power provided by a 12 volt car battery with a rating of 350 amperes.

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Option D

4200 W

Explanation:

Power, P is also given as the product of voltage and current, expressed as P=VI

Here, P is power, V is voltage in the xircuit and I is current theough voltage.

Taking 12 V for voltage across and 350A for current across circuit then power will be

P=350*12=4200 W

Therefore, option D is correct.

A small charged sphere is attached to a thread and placed in an electric field. The other end of the thread is anchored so that

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

$E = 9.66\times 10^{-6} N/C$

direction is Horizontal

Explanation:

As we know that the string is horizontal here

so the tension force in the string is due to electrostatic force on it

now we will have

$F = qE$

so here the force is tension force on it

$F = 6.57 \times 10^{-2} N$

$Q = 6.80 \times 10^3 C$

now we have

$6.57 \times 10^{-2} = (6.80 \times 10^3)E$

$E = 9.66\times 10^{-6} N/C$

direction is Horizontal
