Answer: Scattering reflection

Sunlight reaches earth's atmosphere and is scattered in all directions by all the gasses and particles in the air. Blue light is seen more than others because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.

The energy consumed by a home during a month is 90 kWh, how many Joules are we talking about? a good explanation please is for t

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

3.24×10⁸ J, or 324 MJ

Explanation:

"kWh" is a kilowatt-hour. It's the energy used by 1 kilowatt of power after one hour.

A kilowatt is a kilojoule per second.

90 kWh

= 90 kW × 1 hr

= 90 kJ/s × 1 hr

= 90 kJ/s × 3600 s

= 324,000 kJ

= 324,000,000 J

The energy is 3.24×10⁸ J, or 324 megajoules.

A cord is attached to the box and run through a pulley directly above the box, so that the cord is vertical. The free end of the

Harman [31]

Answer:

The answer is given here would be a simplified equation, seeing as there are some missing variables in the question.

F1 = T- 46, 674.656 gm/s²

Explanation:

Note: Once we have the mass of the second object and/or acceleration of the cord, we can solve for the force of the ground acting on the box.

To calculate the force caused by gravity on the basic pulley system we use the following equation:

F2 = M2 x g; where g= gravitational acceleration (a constant equal to 9.8 m/s²). The mass M2 = 10.5 lb = 4762.72g

∴ F2 = 4762.72g x 9.8 m/s²

= 46, 674.656 gm/s² or 46, 674.656 N

But since this F2 is acting in a downlowrd direction, it would be negative.

Tension of the cord, T = Mass, x × acceleration. ( x is in the pulley diagram)

⇒ F1 = T - F2

F1 = T- 46, 674.656 gm/s²

The students observe that the pitches of the sounds from the fire truck and the

Blababa [14]

So, option 3 or the ambulance sound waves have more waves and shorter wavelength is the correct reason for ambulance siren having higher pitch compared to fire truck siren

Explanation:

Pitch of any sound wave is determined as the clarity in frequency of notes or the number of times a cycle is repeated for a single second. So pitch is similar to frequency. And frequency is the measure of number of complete cycles in a second. So if the ambulance siren has higher pitch compared to siren of fire truck. Then this means the frequency of ambulance siren is greater than the fire truck siren. As the frequency is more, then from the given options, choice 3 is correct. The ambulance siren have more waves and shorter wavelength. As more the frequency or number of waves, lesser or shorter is the wavelength of sound wave from ambulance.
