The picture is kinda blurry but it looks like granite which is metamorphic.
I do not know what the school expects as an answer, but advantage of reflecting telescopes is that there is only one major reflecting surface, so it is quite easy to create a 6 or 8 inch telescope by an amateur, after adding on a prism and an eyepiece. (a microscope eyepiece could be used).
MY answer would be "easier to build". (it still takes tens of hours to grind and polish the single plane surface to a parabolic surface).
Electromagnetic waves all have the same velocity in the same medium. However, since frequencies vary widely, so do wavelengths.
Answer: The temperature of the water falls by 3.3°C
Explanation:
The heat change is related to the change in temperature by the equation
dH = m Cp dT
In this example, -2665 J = 193 g x 4.184 J/g°C x dT
so dT = -3.3 °C
Answer:
Horizontal component = 16.8 m/s
Vertical component = 46.0 m/s
Explanation:
If we denote the initial velocity by <em>v</em> and the angle above the horizontal by <em>θ</em>,
the horizontal component of this initial velocity is given by
The vertical component is given by
Newtons second law says that the acceleration of an object (produced by a net force) is directly proportional to that magnitude of the net force. E.g. F = ma
where F is the net force of an object, m is mass and a is acceleration.
For example, if an object had a large mass, there would have to be more force in order to move it than if it was lighter.
In a linear motion, if you pushed two objects, one slightly larger than the other, with the same force, the acceleration of the smaller object would be bigger than the larger one. So the motion (change in position over time), of the larger object would be seen as lesser than the smaller one (in a situation where both forces are equal).
