A box exerts 10,000 Pa of pressure on the ground. If the box weighs 1000 N, how much area is in contact with the ground?

Pressure = (total force) / (Area)

10,000 Pa = (1,000 N) / (Area)

Multiply each side by (Area) :

(10,000 Pa) x (Area) = 1,000 N

Divide each side by (10,000 Pa) :

Area = (1,000 N) / (10,000 Pa)

<em>Area = 0.1 m² </em>

The most common type of mirage is an illusion that light from faraway objects seem to be reflected by a pool of water that is no
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Mirage is an optical illusion due to the refraction of light as it travels through different layers of air at different temperature.

Explanation:

On a clear hot afternoon, the sun heats up the ground, and the ground heats up the air immediately above it. The result is that the air directly above the ground is hotter than the air above it, leaving the air layers with different refractive indies. Since refractive index decreases with increase in temperature, the air immediately above the ground bends the light that travels through it from the sky, directly into our eyes. The image seen is perceived to be reflected from the ground, but in an actual sense is a direct image of the sky, giving one the impression of seeing a pool of water on the ground.

What is Newton's first law of motion?<br>EXPLAIN WITH SOME EXAMPLES​
timama [110]

Answer:

The tendency of undisturbed objects to stay at rest or to keep moving with the same velocity is called inertia. This is why, the first law of motion is also known as the law of inertia.

<em><u>Example</u></em><em><u>.: A ball at rest on the ground continues to be at rest unless someone kicks it or any external force acts on it.</u></em>

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.

Pls help :(( I need help!! Its physics! motion and forces!
Delvig [45]

Answer: Pedaling your bike : acceleration :: applying the brakes : inertia.

The reason I think this to be the answer to the analogy is because there is energy and work used in both processes (and the unit focuses on forces); gravity is constant and does not change whether one pedals or applies brakes. And I do not think it's deceleration, as deceleration tends to equate to acceleration within the physics perspective.

Edit: I should also add that since you clarified that your unit is motion and forces, Newtons 1st law is the law of inertia. The way to change an objects motion for it to slow down is by applying an additional force. That resistance the bike experiences to slow is the process of inertia. Inertia happens in order to accelerate an object (either by slowing it down, or speeding it up): i.e., the resistance to change.

The energy of an object can be converted to heat due to the friction of the car on the hill. The difference between the potentia
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Energy Lost for group A's car = 0.687 J

Energy Lost for group B's car = 0.55 J

Explanation:

The exact question is as follows :

Given - The energy of an object can be converted to heat due to the friction of the car on the hill. The difference between the potential energy of the car and its kinetic energy at the bottom of the hill equals the energy lost due to friction.

To find - How much energy is lost due to heat for group A's car ?

              How much for Group B's car ?

Solution -

We know that,

GPE = 1 Joule (Potential Energy)

Now,

For Group A -

Energy Lost = GPE - KE

                    = 1 J - 0.313 J

                    = 0.687 J

So,

Energy Lost for group A's car = 0.687 J

Now,

For Group B -

Energy Lost = GPE - KE

                    = 1 J - 0.45 J

                    = 0.55 J

So,

Energy Lost for group B's car = 0.55 J
