Sarah, who lives in Australia notices that the length of the shadow of the flagpole is getting shorter every day when measured a

t noon. Paul, who lives in Canada, notices that the length of the shadow of the flagpole is getting longer everyday when measured at noon. Draw a model to explain how both students can be observing this at the same time. Include these in your model: Sun; earth; tilted axis; rotation and revolution.

Answer:

Time zone is one important factor in difference in location and this in turn affects the result of the resolution and rotation of shadow produced from the sun or other illumination.

Therefore someone at a place might see a clear large shadow due to shinny sun reflection and another a small or dull Shadow at same time if the intensity of the sun or lighting source is going down.

Explanation:

The closer a body/object is to a lighting source the larger the shadow it produces, and the farther the body the smaller the shadow produced.

Your high-fidelity amplifier has one output for a speaker of resistance 8 Ω. How can you arrange two 8-Ω speakers, one 4-Ω speak
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

(a) 8Ω (b)  Ratio = Parra/P8 ohm = 1

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

An high-fidelity amplifier has one output for a speaker of resistance of = 8 Ω

Now,

(a) How can  two 8-Ω speakers be  arranged, when one =  4-Ω speaker, and one =12-Ω speaker

The Upper arm is : 8 ohm, 8 ohm

The Lower arm is : 12 ohm, 4 ohm

The Requirement is  = (16 x 16)/(16 + 16) = 8 ohm

(b) compare  your arrangement  power output of with the power output of a single 8-Ω speaker

The Ratio = Parra/P8 ohm = 1

A skateboarder is skating back and forth on the halfpipe as seen below. As he skates his energy transforms from potential energy
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Friction and air resistance cause some of his kinetic energy to be “lost”. This makes him slow down.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that in absence of frictional forces, the mechanical energy of an object (given by the sum of its kinetic and potential energy) is conserved. In such a situation, the skateboarder would never stop his motion, because potential energy is continuously converted into kinetic energy and vice-versa, but the total energy remains the same so he would never stop.

In a real world, however, this is not true. In fact, in a real world some frictional force are present, in particular:

- friction: this force is due to the contact between the skateboard and the surface of the halfpipe, and its direction is always opposite to the motion of the skateboarder

- Air resistance: this force is due to the resistance opposed by the molecules of air that the skateboarder meets during his motion, and its direction is also opposite to the motion of the skateboarder

This two forces are said to be non-conservative forces, which means that they cause some of the mechanical energy of the skateboarder to be "lost", in the sense that it is dissipated as heat and it is no longer available for the skateboarder.

Therefore, the correct option is

Friction and air resistance cause some of his kinetic energy to be “lost”. This makes him slow down.

In the context of energy transfers with hot and cold reservoirs, the sign convention is that _______________.
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

B. QC > 0; QH < 0

Explanation:

Given that there are two reservoir of energy.

Sign convention for heat and work :

1.If the heat is adding to the system then it is taken as positive and if heat is going out from the system then it is taken as negative.

2. If the work is done on the system then it is taken as negative and if the work is done by the system then it is taken as positive.

From hot reservoir heat is going out that is why it is taken as negative

Q_H

From cold reservoir heat is coming inside the reservoir that is why it is taken as positive

Q_C>0

That is why the answer will be

Q_H ,Q_C>0
