The hypotenuse is measured at 120 meters of string, and you need to solve for the leg of the triangle that is horizontal. The degree is 40, so use trigonometry to figure it out.
Cosin (40) is equal to around .766
Adjacent/Hypotenuse
x/120 = cos40
Answer: 91.92533.
If you use 3 significant figures it should be 91.9 meters.
The discovery which Carnot made was that THE DIFFERENCE IN THE TEMPERATURES BETWEEN THE HOT AND THE COLD RESERVOIRS DETERMINE HOW WELL A HEAT ENGINE WOULD WORK.
Sadi Carnot was a French engineer, He proposed a theoretical thermodynamic cycle in 1824. In his cycle, Said hold that the efficiency of a heat engine depends on the temperature difference between its hot reservoir and cold reservoir.
Answer:
Please see below as the answers are self-explanatory
Explanation:
a)
- A electric field line is an imaginary line, which has the property that the electric field vector is tangent to it at any point. It starts from positive charges (since the electric field by convention it has the direction of the trajectory that would take a positive test charge, so it always goes away from positive charges) and ends in negative charges.
b)
- Since the potential difference between two points represents the work per unit charge needed for a charge to move between these points, a equipotential surface is the one over which it is not needed to do work to move a charge from any point on the surface to any other point, which means that all points are at the same potential.
c)
- Equipotential surfaces are not necessarily physical surfaces, they can be defined in vaccum for instance.
- As an example, any spherical surface concentric with a point charge, is an equipotential surface, and it can be a real surface or a fictitious one.
The answer is 5.88 · 10⁻⁷<span> m.</span>
To calculate this we will use the light equation:
v = λ · f,
where:
v - the speed of light (units: m/s)
<span>λ - the wavelength of the ray (units: m)
</span>f - the frequency of the ray (units: Hz = 1/s <span>since Hz means cycles per second (f=1/T))
</span>
It is given:
f = 5.10 · 10¹⁴ Hz = 5.10 · 10¹⁴<span> 1/s
v = 2.998 </span>· 10⁸<span> m/s
</span><span>λ = ?
</span>
If v = λ · f, then λ = v ÷ f:
λ = 2.998 · 10⁸ m/s ÷ 5.10 · 10¹⁴ 1/s
= 0.588 · 10⁸⁻¹⁴ · m
= 0.588 · 10⁻⁶ m
= 5.88 · 10⁻⁷ m
