Katen [24]

Answer:

50m/s2^

Explanation:

We know , by newton's law of motion .

F=ma

a=f/m

a=25/0.5

a=50m/s2^

Therefore , the acceleration of a softball is  .

A bicycle rim has a diameter of 0.65 m and a moment of inertia, measured about its center, of 0.21 kg⋅m2What is the mass of the
stepan [7]

Answer:

m = 1.99 kg = 2 kg

Explanation:

The moment of inertia of a bicycle rim about it's center is given by the following formula:

I = mr^{2}\\

where,

I = Moment of Inertia of the Bicycle Rim = 0.21 kg.m²

r = Radius of the Bicycle Rim = Diameter of the Bicycle Rim/2

r = 0.65 m/2 = 0.325 m

m = Mass of the Bicycle Rim = ?

Therefore,

0.21\ kg.m^{2} = m(0.325\ m)^{2}\\m = \frac{0.21\ kg.m^{2}}{(0.325\ m)^{2}}\\

<u>m = 1.99 kg = 2 kg</u>

Light rays from stars bend toward smaller angles as they enter Earth's atmosphere. a. Explain why this happens using Snell's law
Grace [21]

Answer:

Following are the answer to this question:

Explanation:

In option (a):

  • The principle of Snells informs us that as light travels from the less dense medium to a denser layer, like water to air or a thinner layer of the air to the thicker ones, it bent to usual — an abstract feature that would be on the surface of all objects. Mostly, on the contrary, glow shifts from a denser with a less dense medium. This angle between both the usual and the light conditions rays is referred to as the refractive angle.  
  • Throughout in scenario, the light from its stars in the upper orbit, the surface area of both the Earth tends to increase because as light flows from the outer atmosphere towards the Earth, it defined above, to a lesser angle.

In option (b):

  • Rays of light, that go directly down wouldn't bend, whilst also sun source which joins the upper orbit was reflected light from either a thicker distance and flex to the usual, following roughly the direction of the curve of the earth.  
  • Throughout the zenith specific position earlier in this thread, astronomical bodies appear throughout the right position while those close to a horizon seem to have been brightest than any of those close to the sky, and please find the attachment of the diagram.

Light intensity is?
Fittoniya [83]
The correct answer is:
<span>The rate at which a waves energy flows through a given unit of area

In fact, light intensity is defined as the light power per unit of area:
</span>I= \frac{P}{A}
<span>but the power is the energy carried by the light per unit of time:
</span>P= \frac{E}{t}
<span>this means that the intensity can be rewritten as
</span>I= \frac{E}{tA}<span>
So, it's basically the rate of energy (per unit of time) through a given surface.</span>
