What is not an example of Absorption? (Physics)

Physics

When a light wave strikes an object, it can be absorbed, reflected, or refracted by the object. All objects have a degree of reflection and absorption. ... In the natural world, light can also be transmitted by an object. That is, light can pass through an object with no effect (an x-ray, for example).

Do heavier objects fall more slowly than lighter objects?
aksik [14]
Think of it like this, gravity has to pull harder on the heavier object to make them fall at the same rate , but doesn't have to pull as hard for the lighter object , thus is why sometimes heavier objects fall faster then lighter ones

An Astronaut lands on an Earthlike planet and drops a small lead ball with a mass from the top of her spaceship. The point of re
bearhunter [10]

First we have to find out the gravity on that planet. We use Newton second equation of motion. It is given as,

s = ut +(gt^2)/2

Distance s = 25m

Time t = 5 s

Velocity u = 0

By putting these values,

25 = 1/2.g.(5)²

g = 2

So the gravity on that planet is 2. Lets find out the weight of the astronaut.

Mass of the astronaut on earth m = 80 kg

Weight of astronaut on earth W = mg = (80)(9.8) = 784 N

Weight of astronaut on earth like planet = (80)(2) = 160 N

x = 160N

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

<em>C. the blue colour of the Earth's sky</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The Pleiades is a cluster of sister stars that are among the closest star cluster to earth.

The reflection nebula of the Pleiades is due to the scattering of the blue light from the hot blue luminous stars that dominate the star cluster. Th blue light is scattered from dust molecules, thought to be predominantly carbon compound like diamond dusts, and other compounds like iron.

The blue colour of the Earth's sky is the closest terrestrial phenomenon to the reflection nebula. On a clear cloudless day, molecules in the air scatter the blue component of light more than the other component colours of white light, giving the sky its characteristic blue coluor.

The common characteristics of the luminous nebula and the Earth's blue sky is that they both have their light scattered by the presence of small particles.

A 600 kg car is at rest, and then accelerates to 5 m/s.
Crank

Answer:

0

7500J

7500J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car  = 600kg

Velocity  = 5m/s

Unknown:

Original kinetic energy  = ?

Final kinetic energy  = ?

Work used  = ?

Solution:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy due to the motion of a body.

It can be solve mathematically using expression below;

                K.E  = \frac{1}{2}  m v²

  where m is mass

              v is velocity

original kinetic energy;

  The car started at rest and v = 0, therefore K.E  = 0

Final kinetic energy;

           K.E  = \frac{1}{2}  x 600 x 5²   = 7500J

Work done:

   Work done  = Final K.E  - Initial K.E  = 7500 - 0 = 7500J
