Answer:

B.) the universe may continue to expand

Explanation:

The steady state theory which states that the universe was, is and will be the same, has been discredited by two physicists who found the leftover energy from the big bang.

If you are listening to FM radio, you might have heard some static noise while changing stations, that noise is from the leftover energy from the big bang. This energy is called the dark energy.

The dark energy tries to rip everything apart while gravity tries to hold everything together.

It was observed that the dark energy is stronger than gravity.

The distance between the galaxies is increasing. This proves that the dark energy successfully defeated the gravity and expanted two massive objects in the universe.

Because of this dark energy the universe will continue to expand.

Note: Dark energy is also increasing the distance between protons in atomic nucleus in every atom in our body too. Chilly right?

Is language an innate or an acquired one

horsena [70]

It's acquired. Innate means you have it at birth, acquired means you picked it up. Obviously babies can't speak ;) so it's acquired.

A ray of light incident in air strikes a rectangular glass block of refractive index 1.5 at angle of incidence of 45.

Gwar [14]

Refraction is said to occur when there is a change in the speed of light.

<h3>What is the angle of refraction?</h3>

We know that refraction is said to occur when there is a change in the speed of light as it travels form one medium to another.

Given that the refractive index of the rectangular glass block is 1.5. The angle of refraction can be obtained by the use of the Snell's law;

n = sin i /sinr

n = refractive index

sini = angle of incidence

sin r = angle of refraction

sinr = sini/n

sinr = sin 45/1.5

= 0.471

r = 28 degrees

b) Now;

sinr =sin 45/1.2

sinr = 0.589

r = 36 degrees

For the glass

sinr = sin 36/1.5

sin r = 0.392

r = 23 degrees

Which kinds of objects emit visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum?

Triss [41]

Answer : Relatively hot objects

Explanation : We know that, the temperature of the objects is inversely proportional to their wavelengths. The objects emitting radiation in the visible region have short wavelength and hence are relatively hotter.

We know the range of wavelength of the visible spectrum is from 400 nm to 780 nm.

A roller coaster travels around a vertical 8-m radius loop. Determine the speed at the top of the loop if the normal force exert

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

$v=10m/sec$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Radius of vertical r= 8m

Force exerted by passengers is 1/4 of weight

Generally the net force acting on top of the roller coaster is give to be

$F_N+Fg$

where

$F_N =forceof the normal$

$Fg= force due to gravity$

Generally the net force is given to be $FC(force towards center)$

$F_C =F_N + Fg$

$F_N =F_C -Fg$

$F_N=F_C-F_g$

$F_N=\frac{mv^2}{R} -mg$

Mathematical we can now derive V

$m_g + \frac{8m}{4}= \frac{mv^2}{8}$

$\frac{5mg}{4} =\frac{mv^2}{8}$

$v^2 =\frac{40*10}{4}$

$v=10m/sec$

Therefore the speed of the roller coaster is given ton be $v=10m/sec$

An object is thrown upward from the top of a 144-foot building with an initial velocity of 128 feet per second. The height h of

ankoles [38]

Answer:

After 9 seconds the object reaches ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

We equation of motion given as h = -16t²+128t+144,

We need to find in how many seconds will the object hit the ground,

That is we need to find time when h = 0

0 = -16t²+128t+144

16t²-128t-144= 0

$t=\frac{-(-128)\pm \sqrt{(-128)^2-4\times 16\times (-144)}}{2\times 16}\\\\t=\frac{128\pm \sqrt{25600}}{32}\\\\t=\frac{128\pm 160}{32}\\\\t=9s\texttt{ or }t=-1s$

Negative time is not possible, hence after 9 seconds the object reaches ground.
