Answer : a_c=40500\ mi/h^2.

Explanation :

It is given that,

Velocity of a race car, v = 135 mi/hr

Radius of the track, r = 0.45 miles

We know that the centripetal acceleration is defined as :

a_c=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

r is the radius of the circle.

a_c=\dfrac{(135\ mi/hr)^2}{0.45\ mi}

a_c=40500\ mi/h^2

So, the centripetal acceleration of the car is a_c=40500\ mi/h^2.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Explanation:

In an experimental research, the control group is the group that serves as the neutral group that is not given any form of treatment and serves as the group in which the experimental groups are firstly compared to. Thus, <u>the control group in the question described is the Third group</u>.

While experimental groups are the groups that receive treatments required to make an inference from the experiment. From this description, <u>it can be deduced that the First and the Second group are the experimental groups.</u>

What are the two distinct ways in which energy moves outward from the solar core to photosphere?
butalik [34]

Answer:

The energy may be carried in the form of (1) radiation, where energy travels in the form of light, and (2) convection, where energy is carried by physical motion of upwelling solar gas.

A strontium vapor laser beam is reflected from the surface of a CD onto a wall. The brightest spot is the reflected beam at an a
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

d=1.29*10^{-6}m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Distance of wall from CD D=1.4

Second bright fringe y_2= 0.803 m

Let

Strontium vapor laser has a wavelength \lambda= 431 nm=>431 *10^{-9}m

Generally the equation for Interference is mathematically given by

y=frac{n*\lambda*D}{d}

Where

d=\frac{n*\lambda*D}{y}

d=\frac{2*431 *10^{-9}m*1.4}{0.803}

d=1.29*10^{-6}m

Over millions of years weathered rock soil dead plant and animal remains are pressed and cemented together under the ground form
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

The statement being made is completely true. This layer of rock is called a Sedimentary Rock level and is slowly formed over millions of years with minerals and organic remains from the bottom of the Oceans that may no longer be covered in water anymore. Since it is made up of all these minerals and remains, it is studied widely by Geologists and Archeologists to better understand the Earth's past.

The early workers in spectroscopy (Fraunhofer with the solar spectrum, Bunsen and Kirchhoff with laboratory spectra) discovered
Anestetic [448]

The hot gases produce their own characteristic pattern of spectral lines, which remain fixed as the temperature increases moderately.

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

A continuous light spectrum emitted by excited atoms of a hot gas with dark spaces in between due to scattered light of specific wavelengths is termed as an atomic spectrum. A hot gas has excited electrons and produces an emission spectrum; the scattered light forming dark bands are called spectral lines.

Fraunhofer closely observed sunlight by expanding the spectrum and a huge number of dark spectral lines were seen.  "Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff" discovered that when certain chemicals were burnt using a Bunsen burner, atomic spectra with spectral lines were seen. Atomic spectral pattern is thus a unique characteristic of any gas and can be used to independently identify presence of elements.

The spectrum change does not depend greatly on increasing temperatures and hence no significant change is observed in the emitted spectrum with moderate increase in temperature.
