A). No.  A mirror doesn't separate light into its different wavelengths.

B). No.  Light doesn't separate into its different wavelengths when it
goes, say, from glass into water.

C). No.  When light goes through your glasses, it doesn't separate
into its different wavelengths.

D). Yes !  When sunlight shines into droplets of water in the atmosphere,
it comes out separated into its different wavelengths.  When we see that
happening in the air in front of us, we call it a "rainbow".

A revolutionary war cannon, with a mass of 2260 kg, fires a 15.5 kg ball horizontally. The cannonball has a speed of 109 m/s aft
Anton [14]

Answer:

The gain in velocity is 0.37m/s

Explanation:

We need solve this problem though the conservation of momentum. That is,

m_1 v_1 = m_2 v_2

m_1=2260Kg\\m_2=15.5Kg\\v_2= 109m/s

Using the equation to find v_1,

v_1=\frac{m_2 v_2}{m_1}\\v_1=\frac{15.5*109}{2260}\\v_1= 0.7475

Using the conservation of energy equation, we have,

KE= \frac{1}{2}m*v^2

KE_{cball}=\frac{1}{2}(15.5)(109)^2=92077.75J

KE_{cannon}=\frac{1}{2}(2260)(0.7475)^2=631.39J

Total KE= 92077.75+13425530=92708.9J

Now this energy over the cannonball

KE=\frac{1}{2}m*v_2^2

92708.9=\frac{1}{2}15.5v_2^2

V_2 = 109.37m/s

The gain in velocity is 0.37m/s

A particle with positive charge q = 9.61 10-19 C moves with a velocity v = (5î + 4ĵ − k) m/s through a region where both a unifo
user100 [1]

Answer:

\vec{F}=(1.537*10^{-17}\hat{i}-9.61*10^{-19}\hat{j}-2.883*10^{-18}\hat{k})N

Explanation:

The total force on the particle is given by

\vec{F}=q\vec{v}\ X\ \vec{B}+q\vec{E}

Then, by replacing we have:

q\vec{v}\ X \vec{B}=q[7\hat{k}-9\hat{j}-\hat{k}]\\\\q\vec{E}=q[5\hat{i}-\hat{j}-2\hat{k}]\\\\\vec{F}=(9.61*10^{-19}C)[(7+9)\hat{i}+(-9-1)\hat{j}+(-1-2)\hat{k}]\\\\\vec{F}=(1.537*10^{-17}\hat{i}-9.61*10^{-19}\hat{j}-2.883*10^{-18}\hat{k})N

where the cross product can be made with the determinant method.

Hope this helps!!

A motor keep a Ferris wheel (with moment of inertia 6.97 × 107 kg · m2 ) rotating at 8.5 rev/hr. When the motor is turned off, t
Talja [164]

Answer:

P = 133.13 Watt

Explanation:

Initial angular speed of the ferris wheel is given as

\omega_i = 2\pi f

\omega_i = 2\pi(8.5/3600)

\omega_i = 0.015 rad/s

final angular speed after friction is given as

\omega_f = 2\pi f

\omega_f = 2\pi(7.5/3600)

\omega_f = 0.013 rad/s

now angular acceleration is given as

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\Delta t}

\alpha = \frac{0.015 - 0.013}{15}

\alpha = 1.27 \times 10^{-4} rad/s^2

now torque due to friction on the wheel is given as

\tau = I \alpha

\tau = (6.97 \times 10^7)(1.27 \times 10^{-4})

\tau = 8875.3 N m

Now the power required to rotate it with initial given speed is

P = \tau \omega

P = 8875.3 \times 0.015

P = 133.13 Watt
