Answer:

The correct answer is 3.5 m/s²

Explanation:

To determine the average acceleration of the rock,

the change in velocity is divided by the time interval (in seconds)

change in velocity = V₂ - V₁

where V₁ is the initial velocity (2.0 m/s) and V₂ is the final velocity (44.0 m/s)

change in velocity = 44 - 2 = 42 m/s

The time interval is 12 seconds (no need for conversion as it is in seconds already)

average acceleration of the rock = 42 ÷ 12 = 3.5 m/s²

As this happens over twelve seconds, you would take the total difference in velocities and divide it by twelve to find the change per second

44.0 m/s - 2.0 m/s = 42.0 m/s 

42.0 m/s / 12 s = 3.5 m/s2

the acceleration of the rock would be 3.5 m/s2

A 360-nm thick oil film floats on the surface of a pool of water. the indices of refraction of the oil and the water are 1.5 and
jenyasd209 [6]
The correct answer is 432, and 720.
The thickness of a film is t= 360nm
the refractive index of oil n₀t = (m +1/2) λ
For m =0
λ = 4n₀t
= 4(1.50)(360)
= 2160nm
for m = 1
λ = 4n₀t
= 4(1.50)(360)/3
= 720nm
m = 2
λ = 4n₀t/5 = 4(1.50)(360)/5
= 432nm
The wavelength which are most strongly reflected are
432nm, 720nm.

A 2kg book is held against a vertical wall. The coefficient of friction is 0.45. What is the minimum force that must be applied
Vika [28.1K]

We have that for the Question "A 2kg book is held against a vertical wall. The <em>coefficient </em>of friction is 0.45. What is the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book</em>, perpendicular to the wall, to prevent the book from slipping down the wal" it can be said that  the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book is</em>

  • F=44N

From the question we are told

A 2kg book is held against a vertical wall. The <em>coefficient </em>of friction is 0.45. What is the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book</em>, perpendicular to the wall, to prevent the book from slipping down the wal

Generally the equation for the  Force  is mathematically given as

F=\frac{mg}{\mu}\\\\F=\frac{2*9.8}{0.45}\\\\

F=44N

Therefore

the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book is</em>

F=44N
