Your friend from France came to visit you when she was packing she went on weather.com and found that the average temperature in
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Because there is not as much cold as it was in France.

Explanation:

The average temperature in France during January ranges from 2.7° to 7.2° celsius which makes it the coldest month of the year. But since she comes to know that average temperature in Annville ranges 31° celsius which implies that the temperature is normal there and therefore, she packs sleeveless tops and shorts. Coats would not be required in a hot weather and hence, she does not pack it.

A light wave has a wavelength of 450 nanometers. What is the frequency of this light?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Frequency, f=6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Explanation:

Wavelength of a light wave is 450 nm. It is required to find the frequency of this light wave. The speed of light is given by c. So,

c=f\lambda

f is the frequency of this light

f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{450\times 10^{-9}}\\\\f=6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz

So, the frequency of this light is 6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz.

The electronics supply company where you work has two different resistors, R1 and R2, in its inventory, and you must measure the
elixir [45]

Answer:

R₁ = 23.77 ohms and R₂ = 7.92 ohms

Explanation:

When connected in series, the equivalence resistance, R(eq) is given as

R(eq) = (R₁ + R₂)

When connected in parallel, the equivalence resistance, R(eq) is given as

[1/R(eq)] = [(1/R₁) + (1/R₂)]

R(eq) = (R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂)

The parallel and series combination are connected to a battery of emf 39.0 V with negligible internal resistance. And the power supplied is measured.

But power supplied is given as

P = IV = (V/R) V = (V²/R)

When connected in series, the power supplied is given as

P = 48.0 W,

V = 39.0 V,

R = R(eq) = (R₁ + R₂)

48 = (39²/R)

R = (39²/48)

R = 31.6875 ohms

R = (R₁ + R₂) = 31.6875

(R₁ + R₂) = 31.6875 (eqn 1)

When connected in series, the power supplied is given as

P = 256.0 W,

V = 39.0 V,

R = R(eq) = (R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂)

256 = (39²/R)

R = (39²/256)

R = 5.9414 ohms

R = R(eq) = (R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂) = 5.9414

(R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂) = 5.9414

But, recall eqn 1

(R₁ + R₂) = 31.6875

(R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂) = 5.9414

Substituting for (R₁ + R₂)

(R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂) = (R₁R₂)/31.6875 = 5.9414

(R₁R₂) = 31.6875 × 5.9414 = 188.2683

R₁ = (188.2683/R₂)

(R₁ + R₂) = 31.6875

Substituting for R₁

(188.2683/R₂) + R₂ = 31.6875

multiply through by R₂

188.2683 + R₂² = 31.6875R₂

R₂² - 31.6875R₂ + 188.2683 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation

R₂ = 23.77 ohms or 7.92 ohms

If R₂ = 23.77 ohms, R₁ = 7.92 ohms

If R₂ = 7.92 ohms, R₁ = 23.77 ohms

Since the question explains that R₁ > R₂

R₁ = 23.77 ohms and R₂ = 7.92 ohms

Hope this Helps!!!

A solid 200-g block of lead and a solid 200-g block of copper are completely submerged in an aquarium filled with water. Each bl
finlep [7]

Answer:

B. The buoyant force on the copper block is greater than the buoyant force on the lead block.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of lead block, m₁ = 200 g = 0.2 kg

mass of copper block, m₂ = 200 g = 0.2 kg

density of water, ρ = 1 g/cm³

density of lead block, ρ₁ = 11.34 g/cm³

density of copper block, ρ₂ = 8.96 g/cm³

The buoyant force on each block is calculated as;

F_B = mg(\frac{density \ of \ fluid}{density \ of \ object} )

The buoyant force of lead block;

F_{lead} = 0.2*9.8(\frac{1}{11.34} )\\\\F_{lead} = 0.173  \ N

The buoyant force of copper block

F_{copper} = 0.2*9.8(\frac{1}{8.96})\\\\F_{copper} = 0.219  \ N

Therefore, the buoyant force on the copper block is greater than the buoyant force on the lead block

A 70 kg base runner begins his slide into second base while moving at a speed of 4.35 m/s. He slides so that his speed is zero j
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer

given,

Mass of the runner, M = 70 Kg

speed of the runner on the second base = 4.35 m/s

speed at the base = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity,g = 9.8 m/s²

a) magnitude of mechanical energy lost

  Mechanical energy lost is equal top gain in kinetic energy

   ME_{Lost}=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

   ME_{Lost}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 70\times 4.35^2

   ME_{Lost}=662.29\ J

b) Work done = Force x displacement

    W = F. x

     F = μ mg

    W = μ mg . x

Work done is equal to 662.29 J

  x=\dfrac{W}{\mu m g}

using the coefficient of the friction,μ = 0.7

  x=\dfrac{662.29}{ 0.7\times 70\times 9.8}

     x = 1.38 m

Hence, the runner will slide to 1.38 m.
