What is the theory of light?

Physics
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Corpuscular theory of light

Explanation:

In optics, the corpuscular theory of light, arguably set forward by Descartes in 1637, states that light is made up of small discrete particles called "corpuscles" which travel in a straight line with a finite velocity and possess impetus. This was based on an alternate description of atomism of the time period.

What is the magnitude of the average force required to stop an 1200 kg car in 9.0 s if the car is traveling at 80 km/h ? Express
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 2960N

Explanation:

According to newtons first law of motion, force = mass × acceleration

To get acceleration,

Acceleration = velocity/time

Velocity = 80km/hr

Converting the velocity to m/s

80×1000/1×3600

velocity = 22.2m/s

Time = 9secs

Acceleration=22.2/9

Acceleration = 2.47m/s²

The get the force

F= 1200×2.47

F = 2960N

Which are examples of perfectly in elastic collisions
sweet [91]
Typical examples of inelastic collision are between cars, airlines, trains, etc.
For instance, when two trains collide, the kinetic energy of each train is transformed into heat, which explains why, most of the times, there is a fire after a collision. However, the momentum of the two trains that are involved in the collision remains unaffected. So, the trains collide with all their speed, maintaining their momentum, yet their kinetic energy is transformed into heat energy.
Another way to explain a train or a car collision is this: when the two trains or cars collide, they stick together while slowing down. They slow down because their kinetic energy is gradually lost. Still, they collide because they conserve their momentum.
