DochEvi [55]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

5,760,000 lb-ft²/s²

Explanation:

Work done, W = mgy where m = mass of stone = 12,000 lb, g = 32 ft/s² and y = vertical distance = 15 ft.

So, W = mgy = 12,000 lb × 32 ft/s² × 15 ft. = 5,760,000 lb-ft²/s²

When an electron jumps from high-to low-energy levels:
AysviL [449]

Answer:

B. A wave of visible light is produced.

Explanation:

The visible light spectrum is in the centre of the Electromagnetic Spectrum, so any time an electron jumps from high to low levels of radiation, it has to cross through the visible spectrum.

I hope this is correct, and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time.

Responsible for weather patterns on earth is what convention, radiation, conduction?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Convection. Convection is the transfer of heat energy in a fluid. ... As the rock's temperature rises due to conduction, heat energy is released into the atmosphere, forming a bubble of air which is warmer than the surrounding air. This bubble of air rises into the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!

A toy car is placed 29.0cm from a convex mirror. The image of the car is upright and one-sixth as large as the actual car. Calcu
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The power of the mirror is -17.24 diopter.

Explanation:

Magnification of an image,m = \frac{1}{6}

Distance of the object from the mirror = u = 29.0 cm

Distance of an image from the mirror = v

Magnification = m=\frac{-v}{u}

\frac{1}{6}=\frac{-v}{u}

v=\frac{-u}{6}

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{-6}{u}

f=\frac{-u}{5}=\frac{-29.0 cm}{5}=-5.8 cm

Focal length of mirror = -5.8 cm =-0.058 m

Power of the lens = P

P =\frac{1}{f}

P=\frac{1}{-0.058 m}=-17.24 D

Write the function of alcohol in a alcohol thermometer.​
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Ethanol-filled thermometers are used in preference to mercury for meteorological measurements of minimum temperatures and can be used down to −70 °C (−94 °F). The physical limitation of the ability of a thermometer to measure low temperature is the freezing point of the liquid used.

A bucket of water of mass 14.7 is suspended by a rope wrapped around a windlass, that is a solid cylinder with diameter 0.280m w
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Tension T in the rope will create torque in solid cylinder ( axle ). If α be angular acceleration

T R = 1/2 M R²α ( M is mass and R is radius of cylinder )

= 1/2 M R² x a / R ( a is linear acceleration )

T = Ma / 2

For downward motion of the bucket

mg - T = m a ( m is mass and a is linear acceleration of bucket downwards )

mg - Ma / 2  = ma

a = mg / ( M /2 + m )

Substituting the values

a = 14.7 x 9.8 / ( 5.8+ 14.7 )

= 7 m / s²

A )

T = Ma / 2

= 5.8 x 7

= 40.6 N

B ) v² = u² + 2 a h

= 2 x 7 x 10.3

v = 12 m /s

C )

v = u + a t

12 = 0 + 7 t

t = 1.7 s
