Why skies are blue but not other colours​

Physics
1 answer:
wolverine [178]3 years ago

Answer:

The Short Answer: Sunlight reaches Earth's atmosphere and is scattered in all directions by all the gases and particles in the air. Blue light is scattered more than the other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.

butalik [34]

The complete question is:

Study the scenario. A firework is ignited, and explodes with a flash and a loud bang as it is blown apart. The system consists of: the firework, the earth, and the air. which choice best describes how energy is transformed in the system?

A) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction absorbs energy from the surrounding environment. the energy is in several forms including sound and light, and mechanical energy of the fragments of the firecracker that are launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal energy.

B) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into mechanical energy.

C) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal or mechanical energy.

D) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction absorbs energy from the surrounding environment. The energy is taken in in several forms including sound and light, and mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy is transformed into thermal energy.

Answer:

C) When the firework is ignited, a chemical reaction releases energy in several forms, including sound, light, and the mechanical energy of the fragments being launched through the air. Eventually all the energy released is transformed into thermal or mechanical energy.

Explanation:

Energy is released from the system, not absorbed.

All the sound, light and movement of the debris is as a result of energy transformation from the chemical energy.

Eventually, most of the energy are finally wasted away as heat energy.

Some of the energy is used up by the flying particles from the fireworks.

40 POINTS!!! + BRAINLIEST!!!
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

I think it is better if you read and shortly write my explanation

Explanation:

simple pendulum with no friction, mechanical energy is conserved. Total mechanical energy is a combination of kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy. As the pendulum swings back and forth, there is a constant exchange between kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy.

What do you need to know to be able to determine how far a projectile travels horizontally?
Effectus [21]
As for me, there are two suitable answers for the question represented above and here is a short explanation why I consider these two to be correct : 
D. The horizontal velocity of the projectile and <span>B. The length of time before it lands 
</span>v_x = v*cos(x) [&#10;&#10;d_x = v_x(t) + ½at² -- this led me to answers! Hope everything is clear! Regards!<span>

At the same moment, one rock is dropped and one is thrown downward with an initial velocity of 29m/s from the top of a building
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The thrown rock strike 2.42 seconds earlier.

Explanation:

This is an uniformly accelerated motion problem, so in order to find the arrival time we will use the following formula:

x=vo*t+\frac{1}{2} a*t^2\\where\\x=distance\\vo=initial velocity\\a=acceleration

So now we have an equation and unkown value.

for the thrown rock

\frac{1}{2}(9.8)*t^2+29*t-300=0

for the dropped rock

\frac{1}{2}(9.8)*t^2+0*t-300=0

solving both equation with the quadratic formula:

\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4*a*c} }{2*a}

we have:

the thrown rock arrives on t=5.4 sec

the dropped rock arrives on t=7.82 sec

so the thrown rock arrives 2.42 seconds earlier (7.82-5.4=2.42)
