Light hits a clear plastic bottle and a granite rock. Which choice most accurately describes the effect of visible light on the

clear plastic and a grey rock?
1. Visible light is absorbed by both the rock and the plastic, making both objects warmer. Visible light is also reemitted by both objects, allowing visible light through the rock and the plastic.

2. Visible light is absorbed by both the rock and the plastic, making both objects warmer. Some of the light hitting the rock is reemitted, allowing visible light through the rock. None of the light hitting the plastic is reemitted.

3. Visible light is absorbed by the rock, making it warmer. Light is also absorbed by the plastic making it warmer. None of the light hitting either object is reemitted.

4.Visible light is absorbed by the rock and the plastic making both objects warmer. Some of the light hitting the plastic is reemitted, allowing visible light through the plastic. None of the light hitting the rock is reemitted.

Answer:

#4 is the accurate answer.

Answer:

4

Explanation:

When the light hits an object, it is absorbed, and the energy of it is transferred by the object by heat, thus it warms. When the object is dark the light is not reemitted because the absorption factor of dark color is almost 100%. But, for clear objects, the absorption factor is small, does, some of the light must be reemitted through it.

Can you make the work output of a machine greater than the work input?
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

It is<em> impossible</em> to construct a machine which produces the <em>work output greater than the work input.</em>

Let us consider the II law of thermodynamics.

According to Kelvin Plank's statement any engine/machine does not give hundred percent efficiency. And violating the PMM-II(Perpetual motion of machine II kind), Always some amount of energy transferred  to the sink or surroundings.

Therefore

                     W(ouput) = Q₁-Q₂

There are many reasons to lower the work output, just for an example friction between the mating parts reduces the work output.

A traveling wave on a string can be described by the equation : y = (5.26 ~\text{m}) \cdot \sin \big( (1.65 ~\frac{\text{rad}}{\
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

  t = 1.77 s

Explanation:

The equation of a traveling wave is

       y = A sin [2π (x /λ -t /T)]

where A is the oscillation amplitude, λ the wavelength and T the period

the speed of the wave is constant and is given by

      v = λ f

Where the frequency and period are related

     f = 1 / T

we substitute

      v = λ / T

let's develop the initial equation

    y = A sin [(2π / λ) x - (2π / T) t +Ф]

where Ф is a phase constant given by the initial conditions

the equation given in the problem is

    y = 5.26 sin (1.65 x - 4.64 t + 1.33)

if we compare the terms of the two equations

 

         2π /λ = 1.65

          λ = 2π / 1.65

          λ = 3.81 m

         2π / T = 4.64

          T = 2π / 4.64

          T = 1.35 s

we seek the speed of the wave

           v = 3.81 / 1.35

           v = 2.82 m / s

           

Since this speed is constant, we use the uniformly moving ratios

          v = d / t

           t = d / v

           t = 5 / 2.82

           t = 1.77 s

How do fossils provide evidence that evolution has taken place
zzz [600]
<span>Fossils provide solid evidence that organisms from the past are not the same as those found today; they show a progression of evolution. Scientists calculate the age of fossils and categorize them to determine when the organisms lived relative to each other. Hope this helps</span>
