Compare and contrast fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs.
dezoksy [38]

Incandescent light is a glowing white light produced by heat. An incandescent light bulb works by heating a filament in the bulb. Fluorescent light is a bright light produced by electricity flowing through a tube filled with ionized gas. Fluorescent light bulbs are more energy-efficient than incandescent bulbs

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

θ=19.877⁰

Explanation:

Given data

Velocity Va=34.0 km/h

Velocity Va=100 km/h

To find

Angle θ

Solution  

We want the bird to fly with velocity Vb=100 km/h with an angle θ relative to the ground so that the bird fly due south relative to the ground.From figure which is attached we got

Sinθ=(Va/Vb)

Sinθ=(34.0/100)

θ=Sin⁻¹(34.0/100)

θ=19.877⁰

The bar graph shows energy data taken from a roller coaster at a theme park. Analyze the data and assess its validity. In 3–5 se
alexdok [17]

The data given in the bar graph is valid because it follows the law of conservation of energy, since the GPE at top of 2nd hill plus KE at top of 2nd hill equals KE at bottom of 1st hill.

<h3>What is law of conservation of energy?</h3>

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

Based on the law of conservation of energy, kinetic energy of a roller coaster can be converted into potential energy of the roller coaster and vice versa.

ΔK.E = ΔP.E

where;

  • ΔK.E is change in kinetic energy
  • ΔP.E is change in potential energy

The kinetic energy of the coaster is greatest at the bottom of the hill, as the coaster moves upward, the kinetic energy decreases and will be converted into potential energy. The potential energy of the coaster increases as the coaster moves up the hill and will become maximum at the highest point of the hill.

From the given data;

GPE at top of 2nd hill + KE at top of 2nd hill = KE at bottom of 1st hill

The Huka Falls on the Waikato River is one of New Zealand's most visited natural tourist attractions. On average, the river has
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

(a) V = 0.75 m/s

(b) V = 0.125 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of the flow of the river can be given by following formula:

V = Q/A

V = Q/w d

where,

V = Speed of Flow of River

Q = Volume Flow Rate of River

w = width of river

d = depth of river

A = Area of Cross-Section of River = w d

(a)

Here,

Q = (300,000 L/s)(0.001 m³/1 L) = 300 m³/s

w = 20 m

d = 20 m

Therefore,

V = (300 m³/s)/(20 m)(20 m)

<u>V = 0.75 m/s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Here,

Q = (300,000 L/s)(0.001 m³/1 L) = 300 m³/s

w = 60 m

d = 40 m

Therefore,

V = (300 m³/s)/(60 m)(40 m)

<u>V = 0.125 m/s</u>
