Alike - both part of the light spectrum, cannot be seen with the naked eye

Different - IR is less energetic than UV, UV has a shorter wavelength than IR

IR - infrared
UV - ultraviolet

An airplane is moving at 350 km/hr. If a bomb is
Molodets [167]

Answers:

a) -171.402 m/s

b) 17.49 s

c) 1700.99 m

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equations:

y=y_{o}+V_{oy}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

x=V_{ox}t (2)

V_{f}=V_{oy}-gt (3)

Where:

y=0 m is the bomb's final jeight

y_{o}=1.5 km \frac{1000 m}{1 km}=1500 m is the bomb'e initial height

V_{oy}=0 m/s is the bomb's initial vertical velocity, since the airplane was moving horizontally

t is the time

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity

x is the bomb's range

V_{ox}=350 \frac{km}{h} \frac{1000 m}{1 km} \frac{1 h}{3600 s}=97.22 m/s is the bomb's initial horizontal velocity

V_{f} is the bomb's fina velocity

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h3>b) Time</h3>

With the conditions given above, equation (1) is now written as:

y_{o}=\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (4)

Isolating t:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}} (5)

t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (1500 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} (6)

t=17.49 s (7)

<h3>a) Final velocity</h3>

Since V_{oy}=0 m/s, equation (3) is written as:

V_{f}=-gt (8)

V_{f}=-(97.22)(17.49 s) (9)

V_{f}=-171.402 m/s (10) The negative sign ony indicates the direction is downwards

<h3>c) Range</h3>

Substituting (7) in (2):

x=(97.22 m/s)(17.49 s) (11)

x=1700.99 m (12)

What is the difference between delta and harbor?
Margarita [4]
The difference between delta and harbor is is that delta is the fourth letter of the modern greek alphabet while harbor is a sheltered expanse of water, adjacent to land, in which ships may dock or anchor, especially for loading and unloading.

A 0.0663 kg ingot of metal is heated to 241◦C
Westkost [7]

Answer:280.216j/kg°C

Explanation:

Mass of metal=0.0663kg

mass of water=0.395kg

Final temperature=27.4°C

Temperature of metal=241°C

Temperature of water=25°C

specific heat capacity of water=4186j/kg°C

0.0663xax(241-27.4)=0.395x4186x(27.4-25)

0.0663xax213.6=0.395x4186x2.4

14.16168a=3968.328

a=3968.328 ➗ 14.16168

a=280.216j/kg°C

If you were in charge of designing a wire to carry electricity across your city, state or province, which of
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Thin, aluminium and buried underground.

Explanation:

When it comes to electrification of a state or province, some characteristics of the wire to use must be considered. This would help to minimize and avoid power loss and wire burns.

i. The wire to use should be thin, and a quite number can be twisted one against the other so as to increase the surface area for heat dissipation.

ii. Aluminium wire is more preferable for this project. It has a high melting point, and reduces energy loss.

iii. Burying the wire underground through an insulator is the best choice, though expensive but would preserve the wire from external influence.

which component of the Star Wars movies is possible according to our current understanding of physics?
Lena [83]

The movie Star Wars<span> is a space opera interstellar epic which uses science and technology in its settings and storylines, although its main focus is not necessarily on science.</span>

Many elements in the films appear to defy simple laws of physics.<span>
One of which is the falling of spaceships when they are hit by a laser beam. Experts said, this is one good example because without gravity in space, ships should travel in the direction of the impact instead of dropping like a stone.</span>
