Answer:

14.5 joules

50.5 %

Explanation:

Energy initial +work= energy final

28.7 + work = 14.2

friction did - 14.5 joules of work so percantage of work lost is just 14.5/28.7 *100 or 50.5 %

Answer:

The speed of light changes as it moves between media. This causes refraction. Angles of refraction can be calculated using known speeds or wavelengths. Beyond the critical angle, light is reflected.

Bob is threatening Tom’s life with a giant laser with wavelength (650 nm), a distance (D = 10 m) from the wall James is shackled

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

He should stand from the center of laser pointed on the wall at 1.3 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wave length = 650 nm

Distance =10 m

Double slit separation d = 5 μm

We need to find the position of fringe

Using formula of distance

$d\sin\theta=n\lambda$

$d\dfrac{y}{D}=n\lambda$

$y=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

Put the value into the formula

$y=\dfrac{650\times10^{-9}\times10}{5\times10^{-6}}$

$y=1.3\ m$

Hence, He should stand from the center of laser pointed on the wall at 1.3 m.

At the instant the traffic light turns green, an automobile starts with a constant acceleration a of 2.5 m/s2. At the same insta

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

6.96 s

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

u = initial speed of the automobile = 0 m/s

a = constant acceleration of the automobile = $2.5\ m/s^2$
v = constant speed of the truck = 8.7 m/s

<u>Assume:</u>

t = time instant at which the automobile overtakes the truck.

At the moment the automobile and the truck both meat each other the distance travel by both vehicles must be the same.

$\therefore \textrm{Distance traveled by the automobile }=\textrm{Distance traveled by the truck}\\\Rightarrow ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2=vt\\\Rightarrow (0)t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.5\times t^2=8.7t\\\Rightarrow 1.25t^2=8.7t\\\Rightarrow 1.25t^2-8.7t=0\\\Rightarrow t(1.25t-8.7)=0\\\Rightarrow t = 0\,\,\,or\,\,\, t = \dfrac{8.7}{1.25}\\\Rightarrow t = 0\,\,\,or\,\,\, t = 6.96\\$

Since t = 0 s is the initial condition. So, they both meet again at t = 6.96 s such that the automobile overtakes the truck.

"relate the fertile phase of the menstrual cycle to the process of fertilisation"

DerKrebs [107]

Explanation:

During your menstrual cycle , Harmones make the eggs in your Ovaries mature -
