thalia would need to consider that the sculpture's inertia is keeping the object in place. Newton's first law applies to this situation. The inertia would have to be overcome to enable the sculpture to move, but the inertia would also keep the sculpture moving after its movement was started. The force that is required to move the sculpture would depend on the mass and acceleration at which Thalia wanted the sculpture to move. Finally, any force applied to the sculpture would be resisted by the sculpture in an equal and opposite manner.

For the answer to this question, 
Thalia must consider the weight of the object and the mass of the sculpture. Weight and mass are different things. She should also consider the time on how long it will take to move it and where she'll move it.

Describe the main differences between the composition of Earth and that of the Sun.
kakasveta [241]

Answer: The earth is comprised of silicate materials as well as metals. The amount of gas is less here because of its location near to the sun. Due to its relative high surface temperature, the gases such as hydrogen and helium gets evaporated and disappears.

Whereas the sun is entirely comprised of hydrogen and helium gas, of which hydrogen is the dominant one. It has an extremely high temperature of about 5500°C.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

(a)

x_1=17.68km\\y_1=-17.68km\\x_2=20km\\y_2=34.64km

(b) r=41.32km

\alpha =24.23^o

Explanation:

Let us take the north direction to be the positive y-axis and the east to be positive x-axis.

First day:

25.0 km southeast, which implies 45^o south of east. The y-component will be negative and the x-component will be positive.

x_1=25cos45^o=17.68km

y_1=-25sin45^o=-17.68km

Second day:

She starts off at the stopping point of last day. This time, both the y- and x-components are positive.

x_2=40cos60^o=20km

y_2=40sin60^o=34.64km

Therefore, total displacements:

x=x_1+x_2=(17.68+20)km=37.68km

y=y_1+y_2=(-17.68+34.64)km=16.96km

Magnitude of displacements,

r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}=41.32km

Direction,

\alpha =tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})=24.23^o

Suppose the wavelength of the light is 550 nm . How much farther is it from the dot on the screen in the center of fringe E to t
Bogdan [553]

Complete question:

Suppose the wavelength of the light is 550 nm . How much farther is it from the dot on the screen in the center of fringe E to the left slit than it is from the dot to the right slit? Fringe C is the central maximum.

Check the image uploaded.

Answer:

The difference is 1100 nm

Explanation:

A bright fringe creates constructive interference, the wavelength is always in a multiple form.

At center fringe, the difference is (550 nm)(0) = 0

For the first maximum, the difference is (550 nm)(1) = 550 nm

For the second maximum, the difference = (550 nm)(2) = 1100 nm

Thus, for nth maxima, the difference is (550 nm)(n)

From the image uploaded, C is located on the second maximum, therefore the difference is given as  (550 nm)(2) = 1100 nm

Therefore, the dot on the screen in the center of fringe E to the left slit is 1100 nm

_____ refers to the process by which people detect physical energy in the environment and encode that energy as neural signals.
german

Answer:

Sensation refers to the process by which people detect physical energy in the environment and encode that energy as neural signals.

Explanation:

Sensation helps us to detect changes in our physical environment.

Sensation occurs in three steps,

  • Sensory receptors, these detect stimuli.
  • Sensory stimuli are converted into electrical impulses to be decoded by the brain.
  • Finally, electrical impulses move along neural pathways to specific parts of the brain wherein the impulses are decoded into useful information.

Therefore, Sensation refers to the process by which people detect physical energy in the environment and encode that energy as neural signals.
