Answer:

Radiation

Explanation:

For about the last 5 billion years, the sun has been fusing light elements into heavier ones, and creating lots of energy in that process. After about 100,000 years, that energy gets to the surface of the sun in the form of electromagnetic radiation, in which form it travels all the way to earth, through the atmosphere, and then onto the skin of people tanning. Hope this helps!

The weight of a metal bracelet is measured to be 0.10400 N in air and 0.08400 N when immersed in water. Find its density.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The density of the metal is 5200 kg/m³.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight in air= 0.10400 N

Weight in water = 0.08400 N

We need to calculate the density of metal

Let $\rho_{m}$ be the density of metal and $\rho_{w}$ be the density of water is 1000kg/m³.

V is volume of solid.

The weight of metal in air is

$W =0.10400\ N$

$mg=0.10400$

$\rho V g=0.10400$

$Vg=\dfrac{0.10400}{\rho_{m}}$ .....(I)

The weight of metal in water is

Using buoyancy force

$F_{b}=0.10400-0.08400$

$F_{b}=0.02\ N$

We know that,

$F_{b}=\rho_{w} V g$ ....(I)

Put the value of $F_{b}$ in equation (I)

$\rho_{w} Vg=0.02$

Put the value of Vg in equation (II)

$\rho_{w}\times\dfrac{0.10400}{\rho_{m}}=0.02$

$1000\times\dfrac{0.10400}{0.02}=\rho_{m}$

$\rho_{m}=5200\ kg/m^3$

Hence, The density of the metal is 5200 kg/m³.

A certain frictionless simple pendulum having a length l and mass m swings with period t. If both l and m are doubled, what is t

iVinArrow [24]

If l and m both are doubled then the period becomes √2*T

what is a simple pendulum?

It is the one which can be considered to be a point mass suspended from a string or rod of negligible mass.

A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely.

Here,

A certain frictionless simple pendulum having a length l and mass m

mass of pendulum = m

length of the pendulum = l

The period of simple pendulum is:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

Where k is the constant.

Now the length and mass are doubled,

m' = 2m

l' = 2l

$T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{2l}{g} }$

$T' = \sqrt{2}* 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }$

$T' = \sqrt{2} * T$

Hence,

If l and m both are doubled then the period becomes √2*T

how much energy would microraptor gui have to expend to fly with a speed of 10 m/sm/s for 1.0 minute?

Ray Of Light [21]

Much energy as would Microraptor gui have to expend to fly with a speed of 10 m/s for 1.0 minutes is 486 J.

The first step is to find the energy that Microraptor must release to fly at 10 m/s for 1.0 minutes. The energy that Microraptor must expend to fly can be found using the relationship between Power and Energy.

P = E/t

Where:

P = power (W)

T = time (s)

Now, a minimum of 8.1 W is required to fly at 10 m/s. So, the energy expended in 1 minute (60 seconds) is

P = E/t

E = P x t

E = 8.1 x 60

E = 486 Joules

Thus, the energy that Microraptor must expend to fly at 10 m/s for 1.0 minutes is the 486 J.
