Answer:

d. 50 C

Explanation:

In this problem, we have to add 800 ml of water at 20 Celsius to 800 ml of water at 80 Celsius.

According to the 2nd law of thermodynamics, heat transfers from hot to cold temperature.

The quantity of both the different waters is equal so this makes it very easy. All we have to do is find the mean of both the temperatures:

Final temperature = (20 C + 80 C)/2

= 50 Celsius

If the wavelength of a wave is quadrupied then what happens to the frequency of the wqve(Assume speed is constant)

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

What happens to the wavelength of a wave if you double the frequency?

If the frequency of a wave is increased, what happens to its wavelength? As the frequency increases, the wavelength decreases. 2. If the frequency is doubled, the wavelength is only half as long.

One end of a 34-m unstretchable rope is tied to a tree; the other end is tied to a car stuck in the mud. The motorist pulls side

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Fc = 89.67N

Explanation:

Since the rope is unstretchable, the total length will always be 34m.

From the attached diagram, you can see that we can calculate the new separation distance from the tree and the stucked car H as follows:

L1+L2=34m

$L1^2=L2^2=L^2=2^2+(H/2)^2$ Replacing this value in the previous equation:

$\sqrt{2^2+H^2/4}+ \sqrt{2^2+H^2/4}=34$ Solving for H:

$H=\sqrt{52}$

We can now, calculate the angle between L1 and the 2m segment:

$\alpha = atan(\frac{H/2}{2})=60.98°$

If we make a sum of forces in the midpoint of the rope we get:

$-2*T*cos(\alpha ) + F = 0$ where T is the tension on the rope and F is the exerted force of 87N.

Solving for T, we get the tension on the rope which is equal to the force exerted on the car:

$T=Fc=\frac{F}{2*cos(\alpha) } = 89.67N$

Hold a pencil in front of your eye at a position where its blunt end just blocks out the Moon.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

$D = 3.55 \times 10^6 m$

Explanation:

Light rays coming from moon is blocked by the pencil

so as per figure we know that angle subtended by pencil and angle subtended by moon must be same

so we have

$Angle = \frac{Arc}{Radius}$

so we have

$\frac{D}{3.8 \times 10^8 m} = \frac{0.7 cm}{75 cm}$

so we have

$D = 3.55 \times 10^6 m$

A spring with a mass on the end of it hangs in equilibrium a distance of 0.4200 m above the floor. The mass is pulled down a dis

den301095 [7]

Answer:

0.48 m

Explanation:

I'm assuming that this takes place in an ideal situation, where we neglect a host of factors such as friction, weight of the spring and others

If the mass is hanging from equilibrium at 0.42 m above the floor, from the question, and it is then pulled 0.06 m below that particular position. This pulling is a means of adding more energy into the spring, when it is released, the weight compresses the spring and equals its distance (i.e, 0.06 m) above the height.

0.42 m + 0.06 m = 0.48 m

At the highest point thus, the height is 0.48 m above the ground.
