3. Does the Sun's light that reaches Earth produce a true continuous rainbow? If not, what colors

Physics
1 answer:
dangina [55]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

when there is no water in the atmosphere or when no drops are formed there is no rainbow..

he hydrogen transition lines would be missing in the visible range,  the RED region

Explanation:

The sunlight that reaches the Earth is scattered by the atmosphere and radiated, as the atmosphere has mainly nitrogen, the radiated light is blue, this light does not produce a rainbow.

The sunlight must reach a drop of water that disperses the colors according to the refractive index of the water and in this way produces a rainbow, so when there is no water in the atmosphere or when no drops are formed there is no rainbow..

If the atmosphere were composed of Hydrogen, the hydrogen transition lines would be missing in the visible range, this corresponds to the so-called Balmer series and they are in the RED light region.

Two blocks of masses 6 kg and 5.5 kg are
sp2606 [1]

When you squish the spring, you put some energy into it, and after the cord
burns and they go boing in opposite directions, that energy that you stored
in the spring is what gives the blocks their kinetic energy.

But linear momentum still has to be conserved.  It was zero while they were
tied together and nothing was moving, so it has to be zero after they both
take off.

Momentum = (mass) x (velocity)

After the launch, the 5.5-kg moves to the right at 6.8 m/s,
so its momentum is
                               (5.5 x 6.8) = 37.4 kg-m/s to the right.

In order for the total momentum to be zero, the other block has to
carry the same amount of momentum in the opposite direction.

               M x V = (6 x speed) = 37.4 kg-m/s to the left.

Divide each side by  6 :      Speed = 37.4 / 6 =<em>  6.2333... m/s left</em>

(That number is  (6 and 7/30) m/s .)

A 75-hp (shaft output) motor that has an efficiency of 91.0 percent is worn out and is to be replaced by a high- efficiency moto
daser333 [38]

Convert the shaft ouput from HP to kW

Shaft output = 75HP = 55.93kW

 

1st: Finding for the power consumption based on 55.93kW output

Power consumption (Old) = 55.93kW / .910 = 61.46kW

Power consumption (New) = 55.93kW / .954 = 58.63kW

 

2nd: Total power used in kWh:

Power Used = Power consumption * load factor * Hours:

Power (Old) = 61.46kW * .75 * 4368 = 201343 kWh

Power (New) = 58.63kW * .75 * 4368 = 192072 kWh

Energy saved = 201343 kWh - 192072 kWh = 9,271 kWh

 

3rd: Calculating for the price:

Price = kW-Hr * $/kWh

Price (Old) = 201343kWh * $0.08/kWh = $16107.44

Price (New) = 192072 kWh * $0.08/kWh = $15365.76

Cost saved = $16107.44 - $15365.76 =  $741.68/yr

 

4th: Setting up the cost equation:

Cost over time, F(t) = Motor_Cost + (Price * Number of Years, t)

Cost (Old) = 5449 + 16107.44*t

Cost (New) = 5520 + 15365.76*t

Equate the two to find for t when they cost equally:

5449 + 16107.44*t = 5520 + 15365.76*t

16107.44*t = 15365.76*t +71

16107.44*t - 15365.76*t = 71

741.68*t = 71

t = 71 / 741.68 = .095 years = 35 days

So the payback period is after 35 days.

A sound wave has a speed of 340 m/s and a frequency of 1000 hz. The period of the sound is closest to?
harina [27]
<h2>Relationship Between Frequency and Period</h2>

The frequency and the period are inversely proportional.

f=\dfrac{1}{T} where T is the period

<h2>Solving the Question</h2>

We're given:

  • <em>v</em> = 340 m/s
  • <em>f</em> = 1000 Hz

Because the frequency and the period are reciprocals of each other, we can find the period of the sound by finding the reciprocal of the frequency:

T=\dfrac{1}{1000}

<h2>Answer</h2>

T=\dfrac{1}{1000}

At the local playground, a 21-kg child sits on the right end of a horizontal teeter-totter, 1.8 m from the pivot point. On the l
Alja [10]

Answer:

Counterclockwise

Explanation:

We need to calculate the clocwkise and the counterclockwise torque.

The clockwise torque is the one generated by the child sitting on the right. This torque is given by:

M_C = F d

where

F=mg=(21 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=205.8 N is the force exerted by the child (his weight)

d = 1.8 m is the distance from the pivot point

So, the clockwise torque is

M_C = (205.8 N)(1.8 m)=370.4 Nm

The counterclockwise torque is the one generated by the adult pushing on the left, and it is given by

M_A = F d

where

F = 151 N is the force applied

d = 3.0 m is the distance from the pivot

Substituting,

M_A = (151 N)(3.0 m)=453 Nm

So, the net torque is

M_A - M_C = 453 Nm - 370.4 Nm=82.6 Nm

And since the counterclockwise momentum is greater than the clockwise one, the teeter-totter will rotate counterclockwise.
