Physics
1 answer:
Irina18 [472]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

The meteor shower is the celestial activity in which meteors are observed to radiate or originate from one point.

Meteors are nothing but dust or ice from the trails of comets. Most of the meteors are less than the size of the sand particle.

We will see comet shower when we earth will cross the orbit of the comet.

Hence, the correct answer is option A

A metal ball of mass 100 g is heated to 90°C and then cooled to 25°C. The heat lost in the process is 2.5 kJ. Another metal ball
kobusy [5.1K]

Explanation:

q = mCΔT

where q is heat,

m is mass,

C is specific heat capacity,

and ΔT is temperature change.

For the first ball:

2500 J = (100 g) C (90°C − 25°C)

C = 0.385 J/g/°C

For the second ball:

5000 J = (200 g) C (90°C − 25°C)

C = 0.385 J/g/°C

The two metals have the same specific heat, and are likely the same metal (possibly copper or zinc).

Why do waves with frequencies higher than visible light hurt while those with lower frequencies do not affect us?
STALIN [3.7K]
Lower frequency waves have less strength to penetrate. How bad a wave is all depends on how well it penetrates our bodies. Visible light doesn't penetrate ur skin, but UV rays (higher than visible) can go through our skin, making it <span>bad" for us. High frequency waves have more energy and move faster</span>

Cousin Throckmorton is playing with the clothesline. One end of the clothesline is attached to a vertical post. Throcky holds th
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

The  frequencies are  f_n  =  n (0.875 )

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The speed of the wave is  v  =  0.700 \  m/s

   The  length of vibrating  clothesline is  L  =  40.0 \  cm = 0.4 \ m

Generally the fundamental frequency is  mathematically represented as

        f =  \frac{v}{2 L  }

=>     f =  \frac{ 0.700 }{2 *  0.4   }

=>     f =  0.875 \  Hz

Now  this other frequencies of vibration experience by the clotheslines are know as harmonics and they are obtained by integer multiple of  the fundamental frequency

So  

   The  frequencies are mathematically represented as

       f_n  =  n  * f

=>     f_n  =  n (0.875 )

Where  n  =  1, 2, 3 ....
