Answer:

Explanation:

At the time of a body achieving terminal velocity, the drag force becomes equal to the weight of the body less the buoyant force by the surrounding medium which can be represented by the following equation

\frac{4\pi\times r^3(d-\rho)}{3} =6\pi\times n\times r\times v

Where r is radius of the body , d is density of the material of the body σ is density of the medium and n is coefficient of viscosity of the medium and v is terminal velocity.

Simplifying

v = \frac{2\times r^2(d-\rho)}{9\times n}

Assuming the value of density of air as 1.225 kg/m³ and putting other given values in the formula we get

v = [tex]\frac{2\times (1.2\times10^{-5})^2(2182-1.225)}{9\times 1.8\times10^{-5}}[/tex]

v = 387 x 10⁻⁵ m/s

Terminal velocity = 387 x 10⁻⁵ m/s

Time taken to fall a distance of 100 m

= \frac{100}{387\times10^{-5}}

= 2.6 x 10⁴ s.

Reflection off of a smooth surface like a mirror is an example of diffuse reflection.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface. ... This is called diffuse reflection. Diffuse reflection is when light hits an object and reflects in lots of different directions.

A Carnot heat engine uses a hot reservoir consisting of a large amount of boiling water and a cold reservoir consisting of a lar
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

W= 4.89 KJ

Explanation:

Lets take

temperature of hot water T₁ = 100⁰C

T₁ = 373 K

Temperature of cold ice T₂= 0⁰C

T₂ = 273 K

The latent heat of ice LH= 334 KJ

The heat rejected by the engine Q= m .LH

Q₂= 0.04 x 334

Q₂= 13.36 KJ

Heat gain by engine = Q₁

For Carnot engine

Q_1=\dfrac{T_1}{T_2}Q_2

Q_1=\dfrac{373}{273}\times 13.36

Q₁  = 18.25 KJ

The work W= Q₁  - Q₂

W= 18.25 - 13.36 KJ

W= 4.89 KJ
