The object's velocity is decreasing.

Explanation:

From graph is the attached image, we can clearly point that the velocity of this motion is decreasing with time.

Velocity is a vector quantity.

The y-axis represent displacement.
The x-axis depicts time
Using the graph, we know that the slope of the line on the graph gives us the velocity as it denotes the change of displacement with time.
When we find the slope, it will give us a negative value which shows that the body is slowing down and not increasing speed.

A scientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different colors reflecting off the surf

Sati [7]

Answer:

a) The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm

b) the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) The index of refraction of the oil is 1.20. What is the minimum thickness of the oil slick at that spot?

t $_{min$ = λ/2n

given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and index of refraction of the oil n = 1.20

we substitute

t $_{min$ = 750 / 2(1.20)

t $_{min$ = 750 / 2.4

t $_{min$ = 312.5 ≈ 313 nm

Therefore, The minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot is 313 nm

Suppose the oil had an index of refraction of 1.50. What would the minimum thickness be now?

minimum thickness of the oil slick at the spot will be;

t $_{min$ = λ/4n

given that; wavelength λ = 750 nm and index of refraction of the oil n = 1.50

we substitute

t $_{min$ = 750 / 4(1.50)

t $_{min$ = 750 / 6

t $_{min$ = 125 nm

Therefore, the minimum thickness be now will be 125 nm

A scene in a movie has a stuntman falling through a floor onto a bed in the room below. The plan is to have the actor fall on hi

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to conservation of energy, the potential energy (PE) of the mass at a height of 3.32 m will be transformed into elastic potential energy (EPE) when it falls on the mattress:

PE = EPE

m · g · h = 1/2 k · x²

Where:

m = mass.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

h = height.

k = spring constant.

x = compression distance

The maximum compression distance is 0.1289 m, then, the maximum elastic potential energy will be the following:

EPE =1/2 k · x²

EPE = 1/2 · 65144 N/m · (0.1289 m)² = 541.2 J

Then, using the equation of gravitational potential energy:

PE = m · g · h = 541.2 J

m = 541.2 J/ g · h

m = 541.2 kg · m²/s² / (9.8 m/s² · 3.32 m)

m = 16.6 kg

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg.

Each plate of an air-filled parallel-plate capacitor has an area of 45.0 cm2, and the separation of the plates is 0.080 mm. A ba

maw [93]

Answer:

Option (e)

Explanation:

A = 45 cm^2 = 0.0045 m^2, d = 0.080 mm = 0.080 x 10^-3 m,

Energy density = 100 J/m

Let Q be the charge on the plates.

Energy density = 1/2 x ε0 x E^2

100 = 0.5 x 8.854 x 10^-12 x E^2

E = 4.75 x 10^6 V/m

V = E x d

V = 4.75 x 10^6 x 0.080 x 10^-3 = 380.22 V

C = ε0 A / d

C = 8.854 x 10^-12 x 45 x 10^-4 / (0.080 x 10^-3) = 4.98 x 10^-10 F

Q = C x V = 4.98 x 10^-10 x 380.22 = 1.9 x 10^-7 C

Q = 190 nC
