It's called gliding.
So, they will get up high and collect their balance and be nice and steady. Then, they can spread their wings out and glide. The wind will carry them from their.
How do we manage to stand without constantly walking? It's the same exact thing.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm

Explanation:

The relationship between the velocity of electromagnetic waves (UV rays) and the their frequency is:

v = fλ

where,

v = c = speed of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = speed of light

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = 9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz

λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic waves (UV rays) = ?

Therefore, substituting the values in the relation, we get:

3 x 10⁸ m/s = (9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)(λ)

λ = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(9.38 x 10¹⁴ Hz)

<u>λ = 3.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 320 nm</u>

So, the radiation of <u>320 nm</u> wavelength is absorbed by Ozone.

Why do you think a clothes dryer requires a 220-volt outlet, while a toaster only requires a 110-volt outlet?
hammer [34]

A toaster needs a 110-volt outlet because it doesn’t need too much electricity.  Electricity can be converted to heat, and toaster only needs to be heated and nothing else that requires extra electricity while clothes dyer requires higher voltage because it needs more effort and electricity in order to do its function.

In a concave mirror parallel rays falling on it convergs at
ella [17]

Answer:

1) In a concave mirror parallel rays falling on it converges at F and 2F.

Explanation:

Spherical mirrors can be used for magnification of images. There are basically two types of spherical mirrors and they are converging mirror and diverging mirrors. The converging mirrors are also termed as concave mirrors and its basic work is to converge or combine light rays coming from a larger distance to a single point. Mostly the light beams falling parallel to the principle axis of the concave mirror will be acting as parallel rays. And when these parallel rays fall on the mirror, the converging point can be the focal point of the mirror.

Thus the location of converging point in concave mirrors will be based on the position or distance of object from the mirror. If the object distance is very far from the twice the focal length distance of mirror, then the converging point will be the focal point or F. And if the object is placed slightly greater than twice the distance of focal point, then the image will be obtained at 2F. But the parallel beams will be converging at F and 2F.

The drum of a washing machine spins at 200 rpm the drum had a radius of 0.5m what will the centripetal force experienced by a to
miskamm [114]

The centripetal force experienced by the towel is 55 N.

The given parameters;

  • angular speed of the washing machine, ω = 200 rpm
  • radius of the machine' drum, r = 0.5 m
  • mass of the towel, m = 0.25 kg

The centripetal force experienced by the towel spinning along the walls of the drum is calculated as follows;

Fc = mrω²

where;

<em>Fc is the centripetal force</em>

<em>ω is angular speed in rad/s</em>

The angular speed in rad/s is calculate as;

\omega = \frac{200 \ rev}{\min} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} \times \frac{1\min}{60 \ s} \\\\\omega = 20.95 \ rad/s

The centripetal force experienced by the towel is calculated as;

F_c = mr\omega ^2\\\\F_c = 0.25 \times 0.5 \times (20.95)^2\\\\F_c = 54.9 \ N \ \approx 55 \ N

Thus, the centripetal force experienced by the towel is 55 N.
