When placing each domino upright, potential energy is conserved in that domino. When kinetic energy is initially added into the first domino, this energy converts the next domino's potential energy to kinetic energy, which is transferred to the next domino afterwards.

The intensity at a distance of 6 m from a source that is radiating equally in all directions is 6.0\times 10^{-10} W/m^2. What i
Sophie [7]

Answer:

P = 271 nW

Explanation:

  • If the source is radiating equally in all directions, it can be treated as a point source, so all points located at the same distance of the source, have the same intensity I, which is related to the power by the following expression:

       I = \frac{P}{A} =\frac{P}{4*\pi *r^{2} } (1)

  • Solving for P, we get:

       P = I*4*\pi *r^{2} = 6.0e-10 W/m2 * 4 * \pi *(6m)^{2} =271 nW (2)

Why do scientists not use US customary units when reporting their data?
Marianna [84]
From britaññica it said time and money. They didn’t have either to switch over from the industrial period and never did. Also from my own person reasoning i think most of the world uses not US customary, so to make stuff more accessible. hope this helps!

What is meant in astronomy by the phrase "adaptive optics?
Sergeu [11.5K]
<h2>Answer: a.The mirrors and eyepiece of a large telescope are spring-loaded to allow them to return quickly to a known position. </h2>

Explanation:

Adaptive optics is a method used in several astronomical observatories to counteract in real time the effects of the Earth's atmosphere on the formation of astronomical images.

This is done through the insertion into the optical path of the telescope of sophisticated deformable mirrors supported by a set of computationally controlled actuators. Thus obtaining clear images despite the effects of atmospheric turbulence that cause the unwanted distortion.

It should be noted that with this technique it is also necessary to have a moderately bright reference star that is very close to the object to be observed and studied. However, it is not always possible to find such stars, so a powerful laser beam is used to point towards the Earth's upper atmosphere and create artificial stars.

What is the approximate terminal velocity of a sky diver before the parachute opens
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The approximate terminal velocity of a sky diver before the parachute opens is 320 km/h.

Explanation:

  • The terminal velocity is the maximum magnitude of velocity that is attained by the diver when he or she falls in the air.
  • The terminal velocity of the person diving in air before opening parachute is 320 km/h that means the velocity when the person is experiencing free fall is 320 km/h.
  • During terminal velocity, we can represent mathematical equation as;

                           Buoyancy force + drag force = Gravity
