What is not an example of Absorption? (Physics)

5 0

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).

A space shuttle sits on the launch pad for 2.0 minutes, and then goes from rest to 4600 m/s in 8.0 minutes. Treat its motion as
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

a.) a = 0 ms⁻²

b.) a = 9.58 ms⁻²

c.) a = 7.67 ms⁻²

Explanation:

a.)

    Acceleration (a) is defined as the time rate of change of velocity

                       a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}  

Given data

 Final velocity = v₂ = 0 m/s

 Initial velocity = v ₁ = 0 m/s

  As the space shuttle remain at rest for the first 2 minutes i.e there is no change in velocity so,

                 a = 0 ms⁻²

b.)

     Given data

As the space shuttle start from rest, So initial velocity is zero

    Initial velocity = v₁ = 0 ms⁻¹

    Final velocity  = v₂ = 4600 ms⁻¹

     Time = t = 8 min = 480 s

By the definition of Acceleration (a)

             a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}  

             a = \frac{4600 - 0 } {480}

                     a = 9.58 ms⁻²

c.)

    Given data

As the space shuttle is at rest for first 2 min then start moving, So initial velocity is zero

    Initial velocity = v₁ = 0 ms⁻¹

    Final velocity  = v₂ = 4600 ms⁻¹

     Time = t = 10 min = 600 s

By the definition of Acceleration (a)

             a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}  

             a = \frac{4600 - 0 } {600}

                     a = 7.67 ms⁻²

A stone is launched straight up by a slingshot. Its initial speed is 19.6 m/s, and the stone is 1.50 m above the ground when lau
arlik [135]

Answer: a) 19.21m b) 3.92secs

Explanation:

a) Maximum height reached by the object is the height reached by an object before falling freely under gravity.

Maximum height = U²/2g

U is the initial velocity = 19.6m/s

g is acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s²

Maximum Height = 19.6²/2(10)

H = 19.21m

b) The time elapsed before the stone hits the ground is the time of flight T= 2U/g

T= 2(19.6)/10

T = 39.2/10

Time elapsed is 3.92secs

Cuanto cambia la entropía de 0.50 kg de vapor de mercurio [Lv: 2.7 x 10⁵ j/kg ] al calentarse en su punto de ebullición de 357°
lord [1]

Answer:

La entropía del vapor de mercurio cambia en 214.235 joules por Kelvin.

Explanation:

Por definición de entropía (S), medida en joules por Kelvin, tenemos la siguiente expresión:

dS = \frac{\delta Q}{T} (1)

Donde:

Q - Ganancia de calor, en joules.

T - Temperatura del sistema, en Kelvin.

Ampliamos (1) por la definición de calor latente:

dS = \frac{L_{v}}{T}\cdot dm (1b)

Donde:

m - Masa del sistema, en kilogramos.

L_{v} - Calor latente de vaporización, en joules

Puesto que no existe cambio en la temperatura durante el proceso de vaporización, transformamos la expresión diferencial en expresión de diferencia, es decir:

\Delta S = \frac{\Delta m \cdot L_{v}}{T}

Como vemos, el cambio de la entropía asociada al cambio de fase del mercurio es directamente proporcional a la masa del sistema. Si tenemos que m = 0.50\,kg,L_{v} = 2.7\times 10^{5}\,\frac{J}{kg} and T = 630.15\,K, entonces el cambio de entropía es:

\Delta S = \frac{(0.50\,kg)\cdot \left(2.7\times 10^{5}\,\frac{J}{kg} \right)}{630.15\,K}

\Delta S = 214.235 \,\frac{J}{K}

La entropía del vapor de mercurio cambia en 214.235 joules por Kelvin.
