Hershel discovered something called Infrared light. It was basically an experiment outdoors and you have a light and when the light hits another surface (like a deck) then that surface heats up

Answer:

156.67 m/s

0.45676 times the speed of sound

Explanation:

Distance from the ground = 23.5 km = 23500 m

Time taken by the blast waves to reach the ground = 2\ minutes\ 30\ seconds=2\times 60+30=150\ s

Spedd of the wave would be

Speed=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}\\\Rightarrow v_b=\dfrac{23500}{150}\\\Rightarrow v-b=156.67\ m/s

The velocity of the blast wave is 156.67 m/s

v = Velocity of sound = 343 m/s

\dfrac{v_b}{v}=\dfrac{156.67}{343}\\\Rightarrow v_b=v\dfrac{156.67}{343}\\\Rightarrow v_b=0.45676v

The blast wave is 0.45676 times the speed of sound

A 19 nC charge is moved in a uniform electric field. The electric field does 5.3 μJ of work as the charge moves from point A to
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The potential difference between points A and B is 278.95 volts.

The potential difference between points B and C is -642.10 volts.

The potential difference between points A and C is -363.15 volts.

Explanation:

Given :

Charge of the particle, q = 19 nC = 19 x 10⁻⁹ C

Work is done to move a charge from point A to B, W₁ = 5.3 μJ

Work done to move a charge from point B to C, W₂ = -12.2 μJ

Let V₁ be the potential difference between point A and B, V₂ be the potential difference between point B and C and V₃ be the potential difference between point A and C.

The relation between work done and potential difference is:

W = qV  

V = W/q    ....(1)

Using equation (1), the potential difference between points A and B is:

V_{1}=\frac{W_{1} }{q}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

V_{1} =\frac{5.3\times10^{-6} }{19\times10^{-9} }

V₁ = 278.95 V

Using equation (1), the potential difference between points B and C is:

V_{2}=\frac{W_{2} }{q}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

V_{2} =\frac{-12.2\times10^{-6} }{19\times10^{-9} }

V₂ = -642.10 V

The potential difference between points A and C is:

V₃ = V₁ + V₂

V₃ = 278.95 - 642.10

V₃ = -363.15 V

A beam of white light enters a prism of crown glass (n = 1.5) from air (n = 1.00). Once inside, the colors in the light disperse
eduard

Answer:

= 2.33

Explanation:

.According to snell's law:

n1sin i = n2sin r ,

where n1 is refractive index of the medium in which incident ray is travelling, n2 is the refractive index of the medium in which refracted ray is travelling,

i is angle of incidence,

r is angle of refraction.

Given that,

n1 = 1,

i = 51 degrees,

r = 19.5 degrees. ,

n2= ?

So,

1*sin 51 = n2 sin 19.5  

=> n2 = sin51 / sin19.5

 = 2.33

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 53.0 cm . The explorer finds that
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

12.4 m/s²

Explanation:

L = length of the simple pendulum = 53 cm = 0.53 m

n = Number of full swing cycles = 99.0

t = Total time taken = 128 s

T = Time period of the pendulum

g = magnitude of gravitational acceleration on the planet

Time period of the pendulum is given as

T = \frac{t}{n}

T = \frac{128}{99}

T = 1.3 sec

Time period of the pendulum is also given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

1.3 = 2(3.14) \sqrt{\frac{0.53}{g}}

g = 12.4 m/s²
