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.

Two scientists interpret the same set of data differently. How would the scientific community deal with this problem?
alexdok [17]
The correct answer would be D. A new experiment would be needed to be done in order to test the conclusions. In science there is no authority, data is the only thing that matters. So if we have two different conclusions from the same date the only solution is to perform more tests and more experiments to see what is correct.

The force exerted by the wind on the sails of a sailboat is Fsail = 330 N north. The water exerts a force of Fkeel = 210 N east.
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration is a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2

The direction is  \theta =  32.5 6^o north of  east

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The force exerted by the wind is  F_{sail} =  (330 ) \ N \ north

   The force exerted by water is  F_{keel} =  (210  ) \ N \ east

      The mass of the boat(+ crew) is  m_b  =  260  \ kg

Now Force is mathematically represented as

      F =  ma

Now the acceleration towards the north is mathematically represented as

      a_n  =  \frac{F_{sail}}{m_b}

substituting values

       a_n  =  \frac{330 }{260}

      a_n  =  1.269 \ m/s^2

Now the acceleration towards the east is mathematically represented as

       a_e = \frac{F_{keel}}{m_b }

substituting values

      a_e = \frac{210}{260}

      a_e =0.808 \ m/s^2

The resultant acceleration is  

      a_r =  \sqrt{a_e^2 + a_n^2}

substituting values

     a_r =  \sqrt{(0.808)^2 + (1.269)^2}

      a_r = 1.50 \ m/s^2

The direction with reference from the north is evaluated as

Apply SOHCAHTOA

        tan \theta =  \frac{a_e}{a_n}

       \theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{a_e}{a_n } ]

substituting values

     \theta = tan ^{-1} [\frac{0.808}{1.269 } ]

    \theta = tan ^{-1} [0.636 ]

   \theta =  32.5 6^o

Can someone explain which of Newton’s Law is demonstrated in part 1 and which is demonstrated in part 2? (Picture)
rewona [7]

Answer:

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. If the student doesn't push, nothing moves, is one student pushes, both move which is an example of newtons third law.

When making a turn, do not have the steering wheel turned in the direction of the turn before beginning the turning maneuver.a)
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

a) True.

Explanation:

If you turn the wheel in the direction of the turn before beginning the turning maneuver then it's possible that there might be not enough space available for turning and also if you are waiting for the traffic to get clear with rear  ended then it will get pushed forward onto the coming traffic.

A particle R moves with a velocity of 6 m/s due East and another particle S moves at 8 m/s due South. What is the magnitude of t
cluponka [151]

Answer:

10

Explanation:

We can look at this problem as a triangle, r is the hypotenuse so if we take the square root of 6^2+8^2 we get 10
