1.)the microwaves are absorbed by the water molecules in the cocoa. this causes the water molecules to vibrate very fast.

2.)this fast vibration causes the molecules to heat themselves up by means of bumping into each other (friction).

The charges that are free to move in a metallic conducting wire and that are responsible for the flow of electric current are- a
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

D) The negatively charged electrons

Electricity passes through metallic conductors as a flow of negatively charged electrons. The electrons are free to move from one atom to another. We call them a sea of delocalised electrons. Current was originally defined as the flow of charges from positive to negative. Please give me the brainliest answer?

NASA is designing a Mars-lander that will enter the Martian atmosphere at high speed. To land safely it must slow to a constant
Viktor [21]

Answer:

a) maximum mass of the Mars lander to ensure it can land safely is 200 kg

b) area of the parachute required is 480 m² which is larger than 400 m²

c) area of the parachute should be 12.68 m²

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

V = 20 m/s

A = 200 m²

drag co-efficient CD = 1.855

g = 3.71 m/s²

density of the atmospheric pressure β = 0.01 kg/m³

a. Calculate the maximum mass of the Mars lander to ensure it can land safely?

Drag force FD = 1/2 × CD × β × A × V²

we substitute

FD = 1/2 × 1.855 × 0.01 kg/m × 200 m² × ( 20 m/s )²

FD = 742 N

we know that;

FD = Fg

Fg = gravity force

Fg = mg

so

FD = mg

m = FD/g

we substitute

m = 742 N / 3.71 m/s²

m = 200 kg

Therefore, the maximum mass of the Mars lander to ensure it can land safely is 200 kg

b. The mission designers consider a larger lander with a mass of 480 kg. Show that the parachute required would be larger than 400 m²;

Given that;

M = 480 kg

Show that the parachute required would be larger than 400 m²

we know that;

FD = Fg = Mg = 480 kg × 3.71 m/s²

FD = 1780.8 N

Now, FD = 1/2 × CD × β × A × V², we solve for A

A = FD / 0.5 × CD × β × V²

we substitute

A = 1780.8  / 0.5 × 1.855 × 0.1 × (20)²

A = 1780.8 / 3.71

A = 480 m²

Therefore, area of the parachute required 480 m² which is larger than 400 m²

c. To test the lander before launching it to Mars, it is tested on Earth where g = 9.8 m/s^2 and the atmospheric density is 1.0 kg m-3. How big should the parachute be for the terminal speed to be 20 m/s, if the mass of the lander is 480 kg?

Given that;

g = 9.8 m/s²,

β" = 1 kg/m³

v" = 20 m/s

M" = 480 kg

we know that;

FD = Fg = M"g

FD = 480 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 4704 N

from the expression; FD = 1/2 × CD × β × A × V²

A = FD / 0.5 × CD × β" × V"²

we substitute

A = 4704 / 0.5 × 1.855 × 1 × (20)²

A = 4704 / 371

A = 12.68 m²

Therefore area of the parachute should be 12.68 m²

Infrared light of wavelength 2.5 µm illuminates a 0.20-mm-diameter hole. What is the angle of the first dark fringe in radians?
stepan [7]

Answer:

Θ=0.01525 rad

or

Θ=0.87°

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength λ=2.5 µm =2.5×10⁻⁶m

Diameter d=0.20 mm =0.20×10⁻³m

To find

Angle Θ in radians and degree

Solution

Circular apertures have first dark fringe at

Θ=(1.22λ)/d

Substitute the given values

So

Θ=[1.22(2.5×10⁻⁶m)]/0.20×10⁻³m

Θ=0.01525 rad

or

Θ=0.87°
