Answer:

The lights bounces from the object behind which hit one's eyes. The glass is transparent because it does not absorb any radiation

A 7 ft tall person is walking away from a 20 ft tall lamppost at a rate of 5 ft/sec. Assume the scenario can be modeled with rig

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The rate of change of the shadow length of a person is 2.692 ft/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Height of a person, H = 20 ft

Height of a person, h = 7 ft

Rate = 5 ft/s

Now,

From Fig.1:

b = person's distance from the lamp post

a = shadow length

Also, from the similarity of the triangles, we can write:

$\frac{a + b}{20} = \frac{a}{7}$

$a = \frac{7}{13}b$

Differentiating the above eqn w.r.t t:

$\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{7}{13}.\frac{db}{dt}$

Now, we know that:

Rate = $\frac{db}{dt} = 5\ ft/s$

Thus

$\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{7}{13}.\times 5 = 2.692\ ft/s$

Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick’s discovered the DNA's Double Helix.

DNA is an abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid and it can be defined as the molecules that are found within cells, and they are saddled with the responsibility of storing genetic information in living organisms.

In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick's used other scientists' work to create a model of DNA in that they used Rosalind Franklin's photo to help them determine that deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was a double helix.

Furthermore, the discovery of DNA's Double Helix by Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, and Francis Crick led to modern molecular biology, which has helped many scientists and researcher to understand how genes control the chemical processes in the body of a living organism.

The mass of the Sun is 2multiply1030 kg, and the mass of the Earth is 6multiply1024 kg. The distance from the Sun to the Earth i

spayn [35]

Answer:

a) 3.56 x 10^22 N

b) 3.56 x 10^22 N

Explanation:

Mass of the sun M = 2 x 10^30 kg

mass of the Earth m = 6 x 10^24 kg

Distance between the sun and the Earth R = 1.5 x 10^11 m

From Newton's law,

F = $\frac{GMm}{R^2}$

where F is the gravitational force between the sun and the Earth

G is the gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2

m is the mass of the Earth

M is the mass of the sun

R is the distance between the sun and the Earth.

Substituting values, we have

F = $\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*2*10^{30}*6*10^{24}}{(1.5*10^{11})^2}$ = 3.56 x 10^22 N

A) The force exerted by the sun on the Earth is equal to the force exerted by the Earth on the Sun also, and the force is equal to 3.56 x 10^22 N

b) The force exerted by the Earth on the Sun = 3.56 x 10^22 N
