Properties that define the light is a wave are

1. Speed : speed of light is 300,000 Km /s, It is most fundamenta property of light to define light is a wave

2. Reflection: Light particles or photons reflect off the particles or masses are continue to travel at the same speed.

3. colour

an object is acted on by a drag force with a magnitude that is proportional to the speed. the object accelerates downward at 3.0

Nutka1998 [239]

The terminal speed of the object falling down is 66.67 m/s.

The terminal speed acquired by the body when,

Weight of the body = Drag force of the body

It is given,

Drag force is directly proportional to the speed,

So,

F = CV

Where F is drag force,

V is the speed,

C is the constant,

So, it can be written as C = F/V.

The weight of the body = mg

The weight of the body = 10m

M is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity,

The drag force when the speed is 20m/s.

Drag force = ma

a is the acceleration during the drag force which is given to be 3m/s²,

Drag force = 3m

Now we can write,

F₁/V₁ = F₂/V₂

F₁ is the drag force at 20m/s speed.

F₂ is the weight of the body and V₂ is the terminal speed,

Now, it can be written,

3m/20 = 10m/V₂

V₂ = 66.67 m/s.

So, the terminal speed is 66.67m/s.

Suppose that on earth you can throw a ball vertically upward a distance of 1.20 m. Given that the acceleration of gravity on the

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

7.04 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement on Earth = 1.2 m

a = Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = 1.67 m/s²

a = Acceleration due to gravity Earth= 9.81 m/s²

Accelration going up is considered as negetive

Initial Velocity of the ball

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2\times -9.81\times 1.2-0^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.2}\\\Rightarrow u=4.85\ m/s$

Assuming that the ball is thrown with the same velocity on the Moon, displacement of the ball is

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-4.85^2}{2\times -1.67}\\\Rightarrow s=7.04\ m$

The displacement of the ball on the moon is 7.04 m

What environmental factor does the pyramid of energy incorporate that prevents it from inverting?

Brilliant_brown [7]

The environmental factor that the pyramid of energy incorporates that prevents it from inverting is population size.

Population size<span> <span>is the actual number of individuals in a </span>population. Populationdensity is a measurement of population size<span> per unit area, i.e., </span>population sizedivided by total land area. Abundance refers to the relative representation of a species in a particular ecosystem.</span>

Energy of fossil fuel is also derived from solar energy why

zzz [600]

Explanation:

All the energy in oil, gas, and coal originally came from the sun captured through photosynthesis. In the same way that we burn wood to release energy that trees capture from the sun, we burn fossil fuels to release the energy that ancient plants captured from the sun.

A scale measures the weight of a light object to be 11.000 lbs ± 0.034 lbs. what is the uncertainty if this same scale is use to

Gre4nikov [31]

The uncertainty of the heavy object if the scale remains constant is 0.24 lbs.

<h3>What is uncertainty in measurement?</h3>

This is the error associated in an attempt measure the object accurately.

The percent uncertainty in measuring the light weight object is calculated as follows;

$= \frac{0.034}{11} \times 100\%\\\\= 0.309\%$

The uncertainty of the heavy object if the scale remains constant is calculated as follows;

$= \frac{0.309}{100} \times 78.0 \ lbs\\\\= 0.24 \ lbs$
