What does the slope of a position time graph determine?

Physics
1 answer:
kupik [55]3 years ago
3 0
The slope of a position/time graph is the speed of the motion.
(The slope doesn't 'determine' the speed; it only displays it.)

The slope of a speed/time graph is the acceleration of the motion.

cup of hot chocolate has a spoon in it. How does the heat move from the hot chocolate to the metal spoon handle?
serg [7]

The heat moves from the hot chocolate to the handle of the spoon by a process called thermal conduction.

It is the transfer of heat energy from one object to another when they are in contact with eachother.

Hope this answers your question.

Which is normally greater, the energy in ordinary sound or the energy in ordinary light? how does the speed of sound compare to
Thepotemich [5.8K]

The energy in ordinary light is greater than the energy in ordinary sound

Energy is the ability to perform work in physics. It could exist in several different forms, such as potential, kinetic, thermal, electrical, chemical, radioactive, etc. Additionally, there is heat and work, which is energy being transferred from one body to another.

Energy is a physical system's ability to perform labor. The capital letter E is a typical sign for energy. The joule, denoted by the letter J, is the common unit. The energy produced by one newton's (1 N) worth of force acting over one meter's (1 m) worth of displacement is measured in joules (1 J). Because it is a fundamental human requirement, energy plays a significant role in our daily lives.

Identify the pros and cons of using mirrors versus lenses in each of the following applications:
disa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

A lens – An object, usually made of glass, that focuses or defocuses the light that passes through it.

A mirror – A smooth surface, usually made of glass with reflective material painted on the underside, that reflects light so as to give an image of what is in front of it.

Telescope – monocular optical instrument possessing magnification for observing distant objects, especially in astronomy.

Refracting telescopes – are telescopes that use lenses are and those that use concave parabolic mirrors are called reflecting telescopes. 

Pros of mirror telescope

• They are easier to construct and not expensive to produce

• made larger and more durable (more light can be directed to the eyepiece which is good)

• cannot have any occlusions 

• mirrors have less spherical aberration

• reflect all wavelengths of light equally

• more magnification power for cheaper version

Cons of mirror prisms

• it must also be realigned after cleaning, which can be expensive - maintenance disadvantage

• Reflective Surface Disadvantage

Pros of Lenses telescope

• Easy to use

• More reliable

Cons of Lens telescope

• are not easy to construct and expensive to produce

• May have occlusions

• spherical aberration are more

• Doesnt reflect wavelengths of light equally they bend light differently

• Less magnification power for cheaper version

• heavy

• Longer body

Pro of Mirror periscope

• it helps us to see further than our view that is what is above us or sometimes even below us.

•Light weight

disadvantage:

• it may not work properly and show distorted images due to fog. ; Some have a narrow field of view ; May be detected by others Ungainly (long, takes up space),

•Not as rugged as prisms.

• Maintenance of reflection surface

Pros of Prism periscopes

• incorporated lenses for magnification and function as telescopes.

• They typically employ prisms and total internal reflection instead of mirrors, because prisms, which do not require coatings on the reflecting surface, are much more rugged than mirrors.

• May be fitted with additional optical capabilities such as range-finding and targeting.

Cons.

•mechanically disadvantage: Complex optically ; Some have a narrow field of view ; May be detected by others 

Ungainly (long, takes up space)

• Heavy weight

Lens - Terrestrial telescope

Pro: An advantage is that it makes it possible to vary the magnification of the telescope.

Cons- This system has the disadvantage increasing the length of the telescope.

Mirror- Terrestrial telescope (Cassegrain)

Pro: Good for distant terrestrial viewing.

greater magnification is attained.

They are more shorter

Cons- It is not what people expect a telescope to look like.

Slight light loss due to secondary mirror obstruction compared to refractors. Generally not suited for most terrestrial applications nor for to view objects in the sky.

Which applications, either for diagnostic purposes or for therapeutic purposes, involve radioactive materials placed in the body
CaHeK987 [17]

When a radioactive material is required to be placed in the body, the applications are brachytherapy and radioisotope imaging.

Radioactive materials are elements which has the ability to disintegrate by emitting radioactive substance or radiation. A good example of this is Cobalt-60, Titanium-99 etc.

Brachytherapy is a therapeutic process in which radioactive material is inserted into the body in close proximity to the region affected. The radioactive material emits radiations which are required to control the unwanted biological material in the body. A good application of this is the treatment of cancer using Cobalt-60.

Radioisotope imaging is a diagnostic process which is an imaging technique that may require placing a radioactive material in the body so as to trace or locate the affected part of the body. In this case, the material is used as a tracing element.

The applications that require the placing of radioactive materials in the body are brachytherapy and radioisotope imaging.
