Explanation:
For each object, the initial potential energy is converted to rotational energy and translational energy:
PE = RE + KE
mgh = ½ Iω² + ½ mv²
For the marble (a solid sphere), I = ⅖ mr².
For the basketball (a hollow sphere), I = ⅔ mr².
For the manhole cover (a solid cylinder), I = ½ mr².
For the wedding ring (a hollow cylinder), I = mr².
If we say k is the coefficient in each case:
mgh = ½ (kmr²) ω² + ½ mv²
For rolling without slipping, ωr = v:
mgh = ½ kmv² + ½ mv²
gh = ½ kv² + ½ v²
2gh = (k + 1) v²
v² = 2gh / (k + 1)
The smaller the value of k, the higher the velocity. Therefore:
marble > manhole cover > basketball > wedding ring
The light will bend when in
D. distance
A light-year is the distance light would travel in 1 year.
The volume of a cube is given by:
where L is the measure of each side (which corresponds to its width, since all sides of a cube are equal).
Plugging the data of the problem, L=32.1 cm, inside the equation, we find the volume:
Answer:
(B) False
Explanation:
The visible light and the x-rays are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, all in the spectrum travel in the vacuum at the same speed, at the speed of light (c = 299,792,458 m/s ). If the visible light ant the x-rays are traveling inside a medium, their velocity will change due to the properties of the medium but in the vacuum, their speed is the same.
