Answer:

Remember the equation:

F = m*a

where F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration.

If we have F constant. and we want that increases, then we can have the case where m decreases.

The mass can decrease in cases like a rocket, where as the fuel of the rocket consumes, the mass of the rocket decreases and the acceleration increases.

b) The cases where a constant force results in a constant acceleration of zero, is when the force is canceled, an example of this is the constant force of the gravity in all the objects. The objects that are in the ground are being affected by this force, but the gravitational force is canceled with the normal force of the ground. Then we have a constant force that does not cause any acceleration.

How does the speed of light in glass depends on the frequency
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Frequency is of light depends upon the body that emits it. While wavelength depends on the medium through which it travels in vacuum the product of wavelength and frequency is the same while in other mediums the light of higher wavelength travels faster besed on refractive index. So light velocity depends on both frequency and wavelength.

The amount of energy lost at the transition between each trophic level of the pyramid of energy is about _______. a. 10% b. 50%
Sophie [7]

The amount of energy lost at the transition between each trophic level of the pyramid of energy is about 90%.

There are a total of 4 trophic levels.

The producers which bare plants represent the first trophic level. Herbivores represent the second trophic level. Carnivores represent the third trophic level. Top carnivores represent the fourth trophic level.

The 10 % rule is followed by the energy flow in a food chain. It means that moving from one trophic level to another, only 10% of energy is transferred and the rest is lost in the atmosphere.

So the 90% percent energy is lost at the transition between each trophic level of the pyramid of energy.

Light of wavelength 608.0 nm is incident on a narrow slit. The diffraction pattern is viewed on a screen 88.5 cm from the slit.
Effectus [21]

Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.167 mm

Explanation:

Wavelength of light, \lambda=608\ nm=608\times 10^{-9}\ m

Distance from screen to slit, D = 88.5 cm = 0.885 m

The distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is 1.61 cm, y = 1.61 cm = 0.0161 m

We need to find the width of the slit. The formula for the distance on the screen between the fifth order minimum and the central maximum is :

y=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{a}

where

a = width of the slit

a=\dfrac{mD\lambda}{y}

a=\dfrac{5\times 0.885\ m\times 608\times 10^{-9}\ m}{0.0161\ m}

a = 0.000167 m

a=1.67\times 10^{-4}\ m

a = 0.167 mm

So, the width of the slit is 0.167 mm. Hence, this is the required solution.
