Answer: The correct answer is "A light beam’s path becomes visible in mist".

Explanation:

Scattering: It is the phenomenon in which there is change in the direction of the motion of the particle due to the collision of particle with the another particle.

The molecules and particles are found in the atmosphere. These particles in the atmosphere have the ability to scatter radiation in all direction.The particles or molecules are the scattered particles for the light.

From the given options, the best observation can be explained by the scattering of light is "A light beam’s path becomes visible in mist". Here, the particles of the mist scatter the light and these particles make the path visible for the light.

Therefore, the correct option is (C).

How much work is done when a 4.0-newton box is carried horizontally a distance of 2.0 meters at a constant velocity?
monitta

Answer: Work done by the box will be 8 Joules.

Explanation:

Work done by a substance is the product of the force applied on it and the displacement of a substance.

Mathematically,

W=F.s

Where,

W = work done = ? J

F = Force applied = 4 N

s = displacement = 2 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

W=4N\times 2m=8Nm=8J

Hence, work done by the box will be 8 Joules.

An ice cube of volume 15 cm^3 and density 917 kg/m^3 is placed in ethyl alcohol of density 811 kg/m^3. What is the buoyant force
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

the buoyant force acting on the  ice cube is 0.119 N

Explanation:

given,

volume of ice cube = 15 cm³ = 15 × 10⁻⁶ m³

density of ice cube = 917 kg/m³

density of ethyl alcohol = 811 kg/m³

buoyant force = ?

The density of ice is more than ethyl alcohol hence it will sink.

buoyant  force acting on the ice cube = ρ V g

                                                                = 811 × 15 × 10⁻⁶ × 9.81

                                                                =0.119 N

so, the buoyant force acting on the  ice cube is 0.119 N

The substances in the table are combined, and Substance 1 loses 40 calories of heat. How many calories of heat will Substance 2
Luda [366]

Over time, the substances will reach equilibrium, meaning the heat calories lost by Substance 1 will be gained by Substance 2. Therefore, Substance 2 will eventually gain 40 calories of heat.
