A rock is stuck deep in the dirt. When you pull on the rock to remove it, what type of force are you exerting?

It is Tension as the other 3 answer choices would not make sense. Compression would mean you are pressing the rock on both sides or in this case, pushing it into the dirt. It can't be nuclear force as you are pulling out a rock. Air resistance would not make sense either as there is no air involved in the scenario at all.

Answer:

C). Tension Force

Explanation:

As we know that the different forces will act at different situations

A) Compression : here when compression occurs then the force is applied along the length of the object due to which its length will contract and it will apply force linearly.

B) Strong Nuclear Force : This only occurs are nuclear level when nuclei comes closer to each other then only this force will exert and it will be the strongest force.

C). Tension : This force will occur when we pull an object and there is no change in the length of the object. So tension force will be the force when there is a pull.

D) Air resistance : this force is due to opposite force of air molecules due to which it resist the motion of object

"A thin film with an index of refraction of 1.50 is placed in one of the beams of a Michelson interferometer. If this causes a s
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The film thickness is 4.32 * 10^-6 m

Explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the thickness of the film.

Mathematically;

The number of fringes shifted when we insert a film of refractive index n and thickness L in the Michelson Interferometer is given as;

ΔN = (2L/λ) (n-1)

where λ is the wavelength of the light used

Let’s make L the subject of the formula

(λ * ΔN)/2(n-1) = L

From the question ΔN = 8 , λ = 540 nm, n = 1.5

Plugging these values, we have

L = ((540 * 10^-9 * 8)/2(1.5-1) = (4320 * 10^-9)/1 = 4.32 * 10^-6 m

The time period T of a simple pendulum is given by the relation
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

T^2 \propto L

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is given by:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration of gravity

From this equation we can write

T\propto \sqrt{L}\\T\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{g}}

Taking the square of this equation, we get:

T^2 = (2\pi)^2 \frac{L}{g}

So we see that T^2 is proportional to L and inversely proportional to g. So, we can write:

T^2 \propto L\\T^2 \propto \frac{1}{g}

So the only correct option is

T^2 \propto L
