A very interesting observation, to be sure.

If the train is traveling forward, then it is slowing down.

If the train is traveling backward, then it is speeding up.

Light shines through a single slit whose width is 5.7 x 10-4 m. A diffraction pattern is formed on a flat screen located 4.0 m a
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

\lambda = 570\ nm

Explanation:

Given,

Width of slit, W = 5.7 x 10⁻⁴ m

Distance between central bright fringe, L = 4 m

distance between central bright fringe and first dark fringe, y = 4 mm

Diffraction angle

tan \theta = \dfrac{y}{L}

tan \theta = \dfrac{4}{4\times 10^3}

\theta = 0.0572

Now.

W sin \theta = m \lambda

m = 1

5.7 \times 10^{-4} \times sin (0.0572) = 1 \times \lambda

\lambda = 569.99 \times 10^{-9}\ m

\lambda = 570\ nm

What makes a clinical thermometer suitable for measuring small changes in body temperature? *
Nana76 [90]

Answer: Because of the fine bore of the tube.

Explanation:

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness. And thermometer is the instrument use to measure temperature.

The two most common types of themometric fluids for thermometer are alcohol and mercury.

What makes a clinical thermometer suitable for measuring small changes in body temperature is because of the fine bore of the tube which makes it possible for small temperature changes to cause large changes in the length of mercury columns, making the thermometer very sensitive to temperature changes.

The most prominent feature of the thermometer is the kink or constriction of bore near the bulb.

1. ¿Qué presión se ejerce sobre cada una de las cuatro patas de una mesa si su masa es de 20 kg y
mestny [16]
Tenemos.

Masa de la mesa = 20kg
Masa encima = 10kg
Masa total = 30kg
Area de cada pata = 20cm² = 20cm² * 1/10000cm² * 1m² =0,002m²

Presió(P)n que se ejerce sobre cada pata.

P =F/A
P = Masa por gravedad/A Masa = 30kg Gravedad =9,8m/s²
P =(30kg * 9,8m/s²)/0,002m²
P = 294kg * m/s²/0,002m² Pero kg *m/s² = Nw
P = 294Nw0,002m²
P = 147000 Nw/m² Pero Nw/m² = pa
p =1,47 * 10⁵ pa

Respuesta.
La presión que se ejerce sobre cada pata es de 1,47 * 10⁵pa

A hair dryer uses 1200 watts of power. Current flow through
KonstantinChe [14]
The answer is: 120V

Power is the rate at which energy is supplied/transformed in time:
we can write:

V ddp in Volts represents Energy/Charge i.e. energy carried by each coulomb;

I current in Amperes represents Charge/time or coulombs passing each seconds.

combining them we have:

Power = energy/time = V • 1

or

1200 = V ⋅ 10
V = 1200/10 = 120V
