Answer:

F = 20.07 μN

Explanation:

given,                                            

intensity of sunlight = 667 W/m²

area of surface =  9.03 m²

speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

force = ?                                  

we know                                                                

force =intensity \times \dfrac{Area}{speed of light}

force =667 \times \dfrac{9.03}{3\times 10^8}

F = 20.07 x 10⁻⁶ N

F = 20.07 μN

Which requires more work, lifting a 10.0kg load a vertical distance of 2m or lifting a 5.0kg load a distance of 4m?
Minchanka [31]

For each load,  Work = (mass) x (gravity) x (distance .

Bigger load:      Work = (10 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (2 m) = 196 joules .

Smaller load:    Work = (5 kg)  x  (9.8 m/s²)  x  (4 m) = 196 joules.

The work required is equal in both cases.

The mass ratio of  2:1  is exactly balanced by
the height ratio of  1:2 .

Help me please :(((((((
Dimas [21]

Answer: A.

Explanation: Roughly 180 - 200 million years ago, just before the first dinosaurs evolved. Mammals themselves evolved from a group or reptiles which exhibited mammal-like traits. One of them was specialized teeth. Reptiles tend to have teeth all the same shape. The mammal-like reptiles evolved tiny teeth in front of the jaw and two pairs of over sized fangs along the the sides. Like modern mammals, the head was large in proportion to the rest of the body. The jaws were also evolving another mammal trait, the ability to move sideways. Despite the lack of specialized teeth, acute hearing and the ability to chew, the dinosaurs evolved an adaptation which made them far more successful than mammals--modified leg bones. These limbs could be articulated directly under their bodies. This enabled the legs to support more weight, since the limbs were now under the body instead of at the sides. Then dinosaurs did something which secured their dominance for the next 120 million years - they began to stand on two legs. Although the back was still parallel to the ground, running on two legs greatly increased the dinosaur's speed. Mammals could simply not compete with swift, giant predators and were forced to remain small, and most became nocturnal to evade dinosaurs which were probably active during the day. Despite that they managed to survive which allowed the further evolution of mammals into us, humans.

Which of the following are found within the electromagnetic spectrum? Check all that apply. sound waves visible light X rays ult
sattari [20]

Answer:

Visible light

X rays

ultraviolet radiation

gamma rays

microwave radiation

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields which vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse wave). Electromagnetic waves have all same speed in a vacuum (c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s, known as speed of light) and are classified into 7 different types according to their frequency and wavelength. This classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.

From lowest to highest wavelength, the 7 types are:

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet radiation

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

Sound waves, on the contrary, do not belong to the electromagnetic spectrum, since they are another type of wave called mechanical waves (which consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium).
