<h2>Height of cylinder = 679.70 m</h2>

Explanation:

Compression strength = 1.7 x 10⁷ Pa

Normal force = Compression strength x Area

Radius = 46 cm = 0.46 m

Area of cylinder = π x 0.46² = 0.665 m²

Normal force =  1.7 x 10⁷ x 0.665 = 1.13 x 10⁷ N

So weight of cylinder = 1.13 x 10⁷ N

Density of concrete = 25 kN/m³ = 25000 N/m³

Volume of cylinder = Base area x Height = 0.665 x h

Weight of cylinder = 25000 x 0.665 x h

Equating

            25000 x 0.665 x h = 1.13 x 10⁷

                   h = 679.70 m

Height of cylinder = 679.70 m

a 280 nm thin film with index of refraction 1.6 floats on waterwhat is the largest wavelength of reflected light for which const
aksik [14]

Answer:

Inside the film the wavelength will be λ/n

For constructive interference to occur the film must be λf/4 thick where λf is the wavelength of the light in the film - there will be a 180 degree phase shift at the water/film interface since the index of refraction of the film is greater than that of water - and the light has to travel λ/2 inside the film for constructive interference to occur

280 nm / 1.6 * 4 = 700 nm is the greatest wavelength allowed

Note that 700 nm is also the upper wavelength of the visible spectrum

Some tropical butterflies can reach speeds of up to 11 m/s. Suppose a butterfly flies at a speed of 6.0m/s while another flying
ladessa [460]

Answer:

24.3 m

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

S=ut+0.5at^{2} where s is the distance, u is initial velocity, t is time and a is acceleration

Substituting u for 6 m/s, t for 3 s, a for 1.4 m/s2 we obtain

S=6*3+(0.5*1.4*3^{2}=18+6.3=24.3 m&#10;
