Answer:

The difference between the two is, well for one

Spectrum: The entire range that the "waves" could be such, as visible light, x-ray's and so on.

Waves: These are different because they aren't telling you or showing the entire spectrum just which they length that they are.

It may confuse you but it makes sense to me (Sorry)

A 75-kg piano is hoisted on a crane and delivered throughout the window of a 6th story apartment (20 meters above ground). What

ipn [44]

Answer:

P = 14700 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a piano, m = 75 kg

It is delivered throughout the window of a 6th story apartment which is 20 m above the ground.

We need to find the potential energy of the piano. It is given by :

P = mgh

Putting all the values,

P = 75 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 20 m

P = 14700 J

So, the potential energy of the piano is 14700 J.

A tow truck is pulling 25,000 kg van with a tow hook that meets the van at an angle of 30° with the ground. How much force must

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

86605.08 N

Explanation:

The equation to calculate the force is:

Force = mass * acceleration

The force and the acceleration does not have the same direction in this case, so we need to decompose the force into its horizontal component, which is the force that will generate the horizontal acceleration:

Force_x = Force * cos(30)

Then, we have that:

Force_x = mass * acceleration

Force * cos(30) = 25000 * 3

Force * 0.866 = 75000

Force = 75000 / 0.866 = 86605.08 N

Which requires more energy, making soup or making toast? Explain.

➪ Making toast requires more energy according to my knowledge because soup is liquid and in liquids the particles move freely and allows heat to transfer more quickly in it. Thus, Soup is made quicker and hence requires less energy whereas a toast (piece of bread) is solid and particles are tightly packed thus they need more energy to get cooked.

What are advantages of double glazed windows?

➪ Double glazed windows are air tight and are sealed properly. They cannot be broken easily which makes it more safe. Double glazed windows reduce the amount of moisture on your window panes, as the airtight seal prevents the condensation from building up. And no condensation means the house will be warmer.

When poor people are forced to sleep outdoors in cold weather, they sometimes use newspapers for blankets. What good is this? Why?

➪ They use newspapers because they have very minute holes in it which have air trapped and that trapped air is bad conductor of heat which does not allow the heat of body to flow outside and keeps them warm.

Why are loose fitting clothes more comfortable than the tight fitting clothes in hot climates?

➪ Loose-fitting clothes allow air to pass through and allows the heat of body to flow out which makes us feel cool whereas tight fitting clothes are touched with skin and does not allow the air to pass through the pores. Thus, making loose clothes more comfortable in hot climates.

How does a thermos flask keep food hot?

➪ A thermos flask does not have any pores or holes in the outer surfacs or inner surface which creates a vaccum inside the flask and does not allow heat to escape. Hence, keeping the food hot for very long time.

A 2 kg rock is at the edge of a cliff 20 meters above a lake The rock becomes loose and falls toward the water below. Calculate

natima [27]

Answer:

The potential energy (P.E) at the top is 392 J

The kinetic energy (K.E) at the top is 0 J

The potential energy (P.E) at the halfway point is 196 J.

The kinetic energy (K.E) at the halfway point is 196 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the rock, m = 2 kg

height of the cliff, h = 20 m

speed of the rock at the halfway point, v = 14 m/s

The potential energy (P.E) and kinetic energy (K.E) when its at the top;

P.E = mgh

P.E = (2)(9.8)(20)

P.E= 392 J

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

v is velocity of the rock at the top of the cliff = 0

K.E = ¹/₂(2)(0)²

K.E = 0

The potential energy (P.E) and kinetic energy (K.E) at the halfway point;

P.E = mg(¹/₂h)

P.E = (2)(9.8)(¹/₂ x 20)

P.E = 196 J

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

v is velocity of the rock at the halfway point = 14 m/s

K.E = ¹/₂(2)(14)²

K.E = 196 J.
