What is different about the colors of the spectrum?

If the period of a wave is 0.05 s, then what is its frequency?

yKpoI14uk [10]

Frequency = 1/time period = 1/0.05 = 20s^-1.

The sun rose at 6:54 this morning. is this an observation or inference?

jeka57 [31]

Observation: You saw/ observed something and you are stating that.

Inference: You are predicting something to be true. If so and so, then this will occur.

A helicopter carrying Dr. Evil takes off with a constant upward acceleration of 5.0 m/s2. Secret agent Austin Powers jumps on ju

denpristay [2]

Answer:

a) $h=250\ m$

b) $\Delta h=0.0835\ m$

Explanation:

Given:

upward acceleration of the helicopter, $a=5\ m.s^{-2}$

time after the takeoff after which the engine is shut off, $t_a=10\ s$

a)

Maximum height reached by the helicopter:

using the equation of motion,

$h=u.t+\frac{1}{2} a.t^2$

where:

u = initial velocity of the helicopter = 0 (took-off from ground)

t = time of observation

$h=0+0.5\times 5\times 10^2$

$h=250\ m$

b)

time after which Austin Powers deploys parachute(time of free fall), $t_f=7\ s$

acceleration after deploying the parachute, $a_p=2\ m.s^{-2}$

height fallen freely by Austin:

$h_f=u.t_f+\frac{1}{2} g.t_f^2$

where:

$u=$ initial velocity of fall at the top = 0 (begins from the max height where the system is momentarily at rest)

$t_f=$ time of free fall

$h_f=0+0.5\times 9.8\times 7^2$

$h_f=240.1\ m$

Velocity just before opening the parachute:

$v_f=u+g.t_f$

$v_f=0+9.8\times 7$

$v_f=68.6\ m.s^{-1}$

Time taken by the helicopter to fall:

$h=u.t_h+\frac{1}{2} g.t_h^2$

where:

$u=$ initial velocity of the helicopter just before it begins falling freely = 0

$t_h=$ time taken by the helicopter to fall on ground

$h=$ height from where it falls = 250 m

now,

$250=0+0.5\times 9.8\times t_h^2$

$t_h=7.1429\ s$

From the above time 7 seconds are taken for free fall and the remaining time to fall with parachute.

remaining time,

$t'=t_h-t_f$

$t'=7.1428-7$

$t'=0.1428\ s$

Now the height fallen in the remaining time using parachute:

$h'=v_f.t'+\frac{1}{2} a_p.t'^2$

$h'=68.6\times 0.1428+0.5\times 2\times 0.1428^2$

$h'=9.8165\ m$

Now the height of Austin above the ground when the helicopter crashed on the ground:

$\Delta h=h-(h_f+h')$

$\Delta h=250-(240.1+9.8165)$

$\Delta h=0.0835\ m$

To push a 26.0 kg crate up a frictionless incline, angled at 25.0° to the horizontal, a worker exerts a force of 209 N parallel

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

(a) W = +397.1 J

(b) W = -204.6 J

(c) W = 0

(d) W= + 192.5 J

Explanation:

Work (W) is defined as the product of force (F) by the distance (d)the body travels due to this force. :

W= F*d Formula ( 1)

The forces that perform work on an object must be parallel to its displacement.

The forces perpendicular to the displacement of an object do not perform work on it.

The work is positive (W+) if the force has the same direction of movement of the object.

The work is negative (W-) if the force has the opposite direction of the movement of the object.

Problem development

(a) Work performed by the worker's applied force on the box .

W= 209 N * 1.9 m = +397.1 J

(b) Work performed by the gravitational force on the crate

We calculate the weight component parallel to the displacement of the box:

We define the x-axis in the direction of the inclined plane ,25.0° to the horizontal.

We define the y-axis and in the direction of the plane perpendicular to the inclined plane.

W= m*g=26*9.8= 254.8N : total box weight

Wx= W*sen25.0°= 254.8*sen25.0°= 107.68 N

W = -Wx *d =107.68 N *1.9 m= -204.6 J

(c) Work performed by normal force (N) exerted by the incline on the crate

The force N is perpendicular to the displacement, then:

W=0

(d) Total work done on the crate

W = 397.1 J -204.6 J

W = 192.5 J

WHAT DOES DENSITY HAVE TO DO WITH PLATE TECTONICS? Explain

Korvikt [17]

Answer: The reason for the differences in density is the composition of rock in the plates. When two plates come in contact with each other through plate tectonics, scientists can use the density of the plates to predict what will happen. Whichever plate is more dense will sink, and the less dense plate will float over it.

Explanation:

Hope this helps ( not copied and pasted, this answer was done by me so I don't know if it's good or not)
