D- All wave lengths refract at the same angle

Explanation- The amount of refraction increases as the wavelength of light decreases. Shorter wavelengths of light are slowed more and consequently experience more bending than the longer wavelengths.

Define 1 unit electricity​
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

A unit is represented in kWH or Kilowatt Hour. This is the actual electricity or energy used. If you use 1000 Watts or 1 Kilowatt of power for 1 hour then you consume 1 unit or 1 Kilowatt-Hour (kWh) of electricity.

A driver drives for 30.0 minutes at 80.0 km/h, then 45.0 minutes at 100 km/h. She then stops 30 minutes for lunch. She then trav
bija089 [108]

Answer:

b) 68,9 km/h a) picture

Explanation:

In this problem, since velocity is expressed in km/h and time in minutes, we have to convert either time to hours or velocity to km/min. It is easier to use hours.

Using this formula we pass time to hours:

t_{hours}=t_{min}*\frac{1 h}{60 min}\\30min*\frac{1 h}{60 min}=0,5h\\45min*\frac{1 h}{60 min}=0,75h

Now we can plot speed vs time (image 1). The problem says that the driver uses constant speed, so all lines have to be horizontal.

Using the values of the speed we calculate the distance in each interval

d=v*t\\80km/h*0.5h=40km\\100km/h*0.75h=75km

Using these values and the fact that she was having lunch in the third one (therefore stayed in the same position), we plot position vs time, using initial position zero (image 2, distance is in km, not meters).

Finally, we compute the average speed with the distance over time:

v_{average}=\frac{155km}{2.25h}=68.9km/h

Imagine two billiard balls on a pool table. Ball A has a mass of 7 kilograms and ball B has a mass of 2 kilograms. The initial v
wlad13 [49]
1) In a perfectly inelastic collision, the two balls stick together after the collision. In this type of collision, the total kinetic energy of the system is not conserved, while the total momentum is conserved.
If we callv_f the final velocity of the two balls that stick together, the conservation of the total momentum before and after the collision can be written as
m_a v_{Ai} + m_b v_{Bi} = (m_A+m_B)v_f (1)
where
m_A=7 kg is the mass of ball A
m_B=2 kg is the mass of ball B
v_{Ai}=6 m/s is the initial velocity of ball A
v_{Bi}=-12 m/s is the initial velocity of ball B (taken with a negative sign, since it goes in the opposite direction of ball A)

If we solve (1) to find v_f, we find that the final velocity of the balls is
v_f= \frac{m_Av_{Ai}+m_Bv_{Bi}}{m_A+m_B}= \frac{(7\cdot 6)+(2 \cdot (- 12))}{7+2}= \frac{18}{9}=2 m/s
and the positive sign means the two balls are going to the right.


2) I assume here we are talking about an elastic collision. In this case, both total momentum and total kinetic energy are conserved:
m_A v_{Ai}+m_B v_{Bi} = m_A v_{fA} + m_B v_{fB}
\frac{1}{2}m_A v_{Ai}^2+ \frac{1}{2}m_B v_{Bi}^2= \frac{1}{2}m_Av_{fA}^2+ \frac{1}{2}m_B v_{fB}^2
where
v_{fA} is the final velocity of ball A
v_{fB} is the final velocity of ball B

If we solve simultaneously the two equations, we find:
v_{fA}= \frac{v_{Ai}(m_A-m_B)+2m_Bv_{Bi}}{m_A+m_B} = \frac{(6)(7-2)+2(2)(-12)}{7+2}=-2 m/s
v_{fB}= \frac{v_{Bi}(m_B-m_A)+2m_Av_{Ai}}{m_A+m_B} = \frac{(-12)(2-7)+2(7)(6)}{7+2}= \frac{144}{9}=16 m/s
So, after the collision, ball A moves to the left with velocity v=-2 m/s and ball B moves to the right with velocity v=16 m/s.

3) The total momentum before and after the collision is conserved.
In fact, the total momentum before the collision is:
p_i = m_A v_{A} + m_B v_{fB} = (7\cdot 6)+(2 \cdot (-12))=42-24=18 m/s
and the total momentum after the collision is:
p_f = m_A v_{A} + m_B v_{fB} = (7\cdot (-2))+(2 \cdot 16)=-14+32=18 m/s
