Answer:

Δ KE = -495 J

Explanation:

given,

mass of the ice hockey player = 110 Kg

initial speed = 3 m/s

final speed  = 0 m/s

distance, d = 0.3 m

change in kinetic energy

\Delta K E = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2

\Delta K E = \dfrac{1}{2}mv(0)^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}\times 110\times 3^2

    Δ KE = -495 J

Hence, the change in kinetic energy is equal to Δ KE = -495 J

alexira [117]

Answer:

A mixture of blue & red light.

Explanation:

During photosynthesis, the oxygen delivered emanates from water particles and if a weighty isotope of oxygen atom was noticed in delivered sub-atomic oxygen, the water atoms were marked with the hefty isotope.

In order to maximize the growth rate of the plant, the required wavelength of light to be used is a mixture of blue & red light. This is on the grounds that as the absorption optima of plant's photoreceptors are at wavelength frequency of red and blue light, subsequently the combination of red and blue light would be ideal for plant growth and development.

The productivity of red (650–665 nm) LEDs on plant development is straightforward on the grounds that these wavelength frequencies entirely fit with the retention pinnacle of chlorophylls and phytochrome, while the enhanced blue light presented the possibility that development under regular light could be mirrored utilizing blue and red LEDs with negligible use of energy.

A Ray of light falling on rough surface follows the laws of reflection but no image of the object placed before it is C explain
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The light rays falling on a rough surface does follow the laws of reflection. The light rays are incident parallel on the rough surface but due to uneven surface the light rays are not reflected parallel rather they are reflected in different direction. Hence, no image is formed.
