Answer:

176.58 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 6 seconds

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

Equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 6^2\\\Rightarrow s=176.58\ m

The object travels 176.58 m from the cliff in 6 seconds.

A truck traveling with an initial velocity of 22m/s comes to a stop in 17.32 secs. What is the acceleration of the truck?
Tomtit [17]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 22 m/s

v = 0 m/s

t = 17.32 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

(0 m/s) = a (17.32 s) + (22 m/s)

a = -1.270 m/s²

Round as needed.

Is a process that modifies light waves so they vibrate in a single plane
madam [21]

The process you're fishing for is "polarization", but that's a

misleading description.

Polarization doesn't do anything to change the light waves. 

It simply filters out (absorbs, as with a polarizing filter) the

light waves that aren't vibrating in the desired plane, and

allows only those that are to pass.

The intensity of a light beam is always reduced after

polarizing it, because much (most) of the original light

has been removed.

A laser light source may be thought of as an exception,

since everything coming out of the laser is polarized.

The wavelength of a light wave is 700 nm in air; this light appears red. If this wave enters a pool of water, its wavelength bec
hodyreva [135]

Answer

given,

wavelength of light in air = 700 nm

Wavelength of light in water = 530 nm

We know that speed of light changes when it moves from one medium to another.

And the frequency of the wavelength does not changes if the medium changes.

we also know that,

                                    v = ν λ

From the above equation we can say that if frequency is constant so, with the change in  velocity changes wavelength will also change.

Hence, wavelength is the property of the wave which determines color.
