If an object doubles in mass, what happens to its inertia?

1 answer:

5 0

Inertia is proportional to mass. It is a measure of the resistance to changes in velocity. Inertia is a property of mass and cannot change. Momentum changes as an object changes its velocity.

HENCE The inertia will also be doubled

A beam of light strikes a sheet of glass at an angle of 56.6° with the normal in air. You observe that red light makes an angle

Yuri [45]

Answer:

(a). Index of refraction are $n_{red}$ = 1.344 & $n_{violet}$ = 1.406

(b). The velocity of red light in the glass $v_{red} =$ 2.23 × $10^{8} \ \frac{m}{s}$

The velocity of violet light in the glass $v_{violet} =$ 2.13 × $10^{8} \ \frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

We know that

Law of reflection is

$n_1 \sin\theta_{1} = n_2 \sin\theta_{2}$

Here

$\theta_1$ = angle of incidence

$\theta_2$ = angle of refraction

(a). For red light

1 × $\sin 56.6$ = $n_{red}$ × $\sin 38.4$

$n_{red}$ = 1.344

For violet light

1 × $\sin 56.6$ = $n_{violet}$ × $\sin 36.4$

$n_{violet}$ = 1.406

(b). Index of refraction is given by

$n = \frac{c}{v}$

$n_{red}$ = 1.344

$v_{red} = \frac{c}{n_{red} }$

$v_{red} = \frac{3(10^{8} )}{1.344}$

$v_{red} =$ 2.23 × $10^{8} \ \frac{m}{s}$

This is the velocity of red light in the glass.

The velocity of violet light in the glass is given by

$v_{violet} = \frac{3(10^{8} )}{1.406}$

$v_{violet} =$ 2.13 × $10^{8} \ \frac{m}{s}$

This is the velocity of violet light in the glass.

A pickup truck and a hatchback car start at the same position. If the truck is moving at a constant 33.2m/s and the hatchback ca

love history [14]

Answer:

The pickup truck and hatchback will meet again at 440.896 m

Explanation:

Let us assume that both vehicles are at origin at the start means initial position is zero i.e. $s_{o}$ = 0. Both the vehicles will cross each other at same time so we will make equations for both and will solve for time.

Truck:

$v_{i}$ = 33.2 m/s, a = 0 (since the velocity is constant), $s_{o}$ = 0

Using $s =s_{o}+v_{i}t+1/2at^{2}$

s = 33.2t .......... eq (1)

Hatchback:

$a=5m/s^{2}$ , $v_{i}$ = 0 m/s (since initial velocity is zero), $s_{o}$ = 0

Using $s =s_{o}+v_{i}t+1/2at^{2}$

putting in the data we will get

$s=(1/2)(5)t^{2}$

now putting 's' value from eq (1)

$2.5t^{2}-33.2t=0$

which will give,

t = 13.28 s

so both vehicles will meet up gain after 13.28 sec.

putting t = 13.28 in eq (1) will give

s = 440.896 m

So, both vehicles will meet up again at 440.896 m.

A student wants to demonstrate entropy using the songs on her portable music player. What should she do to demonstrate the lowes

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: A. play a single song by a single artist

Explanation: Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system.

A system that has more random distribution is considered to have more entropy and a system with ordered arrangement is considered to have less entropy.

Playing a single song by a single artist has least randomness , and lowest disorder and thus has lowest entropy.
