Answer:

In the more scientific viewpoint, the most important thing that she must do is caring for her hygiene and put some plastic gloves in her hands.

This is because there are lots of particles that can be retained in the hands (dust, skin, etc), and when examining the scene, she may drop some of these particles, "contaminating" the scene in this way with information that only will affect the investigation.

So the most important thing is being prepared to not affect anything in the crime scene

Answer: Linda must first secure the crime scene.

Explanation:

Before examining the crime scene Linda must first secure the crime scene. By securing the crime scene bystanders will not be able to contaminate or hurt any evidence that could be used to help solve the case. This will also ensure the bystanders cannot hurt themselves on anything at the crime scene. This is necessary because evidence that is contaminated in any way can not be used in the case.

Given a block of glass that is semi-circular, a laser pointer, protractor/ruler, and index card, design your own experiment to o

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

Explanation:

To design the experiment of measuring the critical angle, we describe the phenomenon, when the light passes from a medium with a higher refractive index to one with a lower index, it separates from the normal one and the Critical Angle is defined as the Angle for which the refraction occurs at 90º

n₂ sin θ₂ = n₁ sin 90

n₁ / n₂ = sin θ₂

As we can see, we have to measure the angle with which the laser touches the exit surface of the glass block.

Design of the experiment:

We place the glass block on the ramp and at the top we hit the conveyor for half the angle, we climb the block on the ramp and see that the angle of incidence of lightning on the exit face changes, part of the beam comes out of the glass , we see it by dispersion in the particles of dirty in the air; Maybe the conveyor or the laser should be moved slightly so that the beam touches the point of origin on the conveyor.

When we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

A particle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of vector a = 2.00ĵ m/s2 and an initial velocity of vector v i =

natali 33 [55]

With acceleration

$\mathbf a=\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\,\mathbf j$

and initial velocity

$\mathbf v(0)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i$

the velocity at time t (b) is given by

$\mathbf v(t)=\mathbf v(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^t\mathbf a\,\mathrm du$

$\mathbf v(t)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\displaystyle\int_0^t\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\,\mathbf j\,\mathrm du$

$\mathbf v(t)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)u\,\mathbf j\bigg|_{u=0}^{u=t}$

$\mathbf v(t)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t\,\mathbf j$

We can get the position at time t (a) by integrating the velocity:

$\mathbf x(t)=\mathbf x(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^t\mathbf v(u)\,\mathrm du$

The particle starts at the origin, so $\mathbf x(0)=\mathbf0$ .

$\mathbf x(t)=\displaystyle\int_0^t\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)u\,\mathbf j\,\mathrm du$

$\mathbf x(t)=\left(\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)u\,\mathbf i+\dfrac12\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)u^2\,\mathbf j\right)\bigg|_{u=0}^{u=t}$

$\mathbf x(t)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t\,\mathbf i+\left(1.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\,\mathbf j$

Get the coordinates at t = 8.00 s by evaluating $\mathbf x(t)$ at this time:

$\mathbf x(8.00\,\mathrm s)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(8.00\,\mathrm s)\,\mathbf i+\left(1.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(8.00\,\mathrm s)^2\,\mathbf j$

$\mathbf x(8.00\,\mathrm s)=(64.0\,\mathrm m)\,\mathbf i+(64.0\,\mathrm m)\,\mathbf j$

so the particle is located at (x, y) = (64.0, 64.0).

Get the speed at t = 8.00 s by evaluating $\mathbf v(t)$ at the same time:

$\mathbf v(8.00\,\mathrm s)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(8.00\,\mathrm s)\,\mathbf j$

$\mathbf v(8.00\,\mathrm s)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(16.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf j$

This is the velocity at t = 8.00 s. Get the speed by computing the magnitude of this vector:

$\|\mathbf v(8.00\,\mathrm s)\|=\sqrt{\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2+\left(16.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2}=8\sqrt5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\approx17.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

PLEASE HELP THIS IS DUE TODAY If an element's atomic mass and atomic number are known, what else can be determined? Give an exam

Fudgin [204]

If you know an element’s atomic number, you will learn the number of protons and electrons. The atomic number is equal to the number or protons and electrons. You can also find the number of neutrons, by subtracting the atomic mass from the atomic number.

For example, Fluorine’s atomic number is 9, and its atomic mass is 19. So, the number of electrons and protons in fluorine is 9. The number of neutrons the is equal to 19-9. Thus, Fluorine has 10 neutrons.

Hope this helps :)
