The color of an object that the human eye senses depends on the color of light that shines on the object and the color of light

that is reflected or absorbed by the object. If white light shines on an object and the object appears blue, this means that
A. the object absorbs all light that strikes it.
B. the object reflects blue light more than it does any other color.
C. the object reflects all light that strikes it.
D. the object absorbs blue light more than it does any other color.

Answer:

B. the object reflects blue light more than it does any other color.

Explanation:

The color of an object as we see it corresponds to the wavelength of the light that the object reflects.

Let's consider an object on which white light is shone, as in this problem. If the object absorbs all the possible wavelengths of visible light, the object will not reflect any colour, so it will appear black. However, if the object reflects at least one color, the light of that color (reflected by the object) will reach us, so we will see the object in that color.

Therefore, in this problem, the object appears blue because it reflects blue light more than the other colors.

The notes produced by a tuba range in frequency from approximately 45 Hz to 375 Hz. Find the possible range of wavelengths in ai
taurus [48]

Answer:

The possible range of wavelengths in air produced by the instrument is 7.62 m and 0.914 m respectively.

Explanation:

Given that,

The notes produced by a tuba range in frequency from approximately 45 Hz to 375 Hz.

The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.

To find,

The wavelength range for the corresponding frequency.

Solution,

The speed of sound is given by the following relation as :

v=f_1\lambda_1

Wavelength for f = 45 Hz is,

\lambda_1=\dfrac{v}{f_1}

\lambda_1=\dfrac{343}{45}=7.62\ m

Wavelength for f = 375 Hz is,

\lambda_2=\dfrac{v}{f_2}

\lambda_2=\dfrac{343}{375}=0.914\ m/s

So, the possible range of wavelengths in air produced by the instrument is 7.62 m and 0.914 m respectively.

A square loop of wire with a small resistance is moved with constant speed from a field free region into a region of uniform B f
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

A) False

B) False

C) True

D) False

Explanation:

A) False, because when leaving the field, the coil experiences a magnetic force to the right.

B) When the loop is entering the field, the magnetic flux through it will increase. Thus, induced magnetic field will try to decrease the magnetic flux i.e. the induced magnetic field will be opposite to the applied magnetic field. The applied magnetic field is into the plane of figure and thus the induced magnetic field is out of the plane of figure. Due to that reason, the current would be counterclockwise. So the statement is false.

C) When the loop is leaving the field, the magnetic flux through the loop will decrease. Thus, induced magnetic field will try to increase the magnetic flux i.e. the inducued magnetic field will be in the same direction as the applied magnetic field. The applied magnetic field is into the plane of figure and thus the induced magnetic field is also into the plane of figure. Due to that reason, the current would be clockwise. So the statement is true.

D) False because when entering the field magnetic force will be toward left side

Yakvenalex [24]
Sound though open space (and other compressible media) is composed of compression waves. Lack of any such media, such as the vacuum of space means the sound waves have nothing to propagate through. So there would be no sound. <span>it's also virtually impossible since there's no electricity</span>

A box of mass 12 kg is at rest on a flat floor. The coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is 0.42. What is th
Oxana [17]
The maximum static force that can be applied is equal to the normal force*the frictional force. the normal force on the box is equal to mg since the floor is flat using 9.81m/s^2 for gravity 12kg*9.81m/s^2 = 118N multiplying the normal force by the frictional force you get a 118*.42= 49.6N so overcome the force of static friction on the box a minimum of 49.6N would need to be applied.
