Why is a shadow formed

Physics
2 answers:
a_sh-v [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. The size and shape of a shadow depend on the position and size of the light source compared to the object.

Waves are observed passing under a dock. Wave crests are 8.0 meters apart. The time for a complete wave to pass by is 4.0 second
ki77a [65]
To answer that question, we don't care what the highest and lowest
levels of the wave are, or how far apart they are.  We only need to be
able to identify the highest point on the wave, and keep track of how
often those pass by us.

You said it takes 4 seconds for a complete wave to pass by.
Through the sheer power of intellect, I'm able to take that information
and calculate that  1/4  of the wave passes by in 1 second.

There's your frequency . . .  1/4 per second, or  0.25 Hz.

A car moves with constant acceieration of -0.s m/s? on a straight portion of the road. Att- 0s the car has a velocity of 69 mph,
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

b) d = 0.71 Km

Explanation:

Car kinematics

Car 1 moves with uniformly accelerated movement

v_f^2=v_o^2+2a*d Formula (1)

d: displacement in meters (m)

v₀: initial speed in m/s

vf: final speed in m/s

a: acceleration in m/s²

Equivalences:

1mile = 1609.34 meters

1 hour = 3600s

1km = 1000m

Known data

v_o = 69\frac{mile}{hour} *1609.34\frac{meter}{mile} *\frac{1}{3600}\frac{hour}{s}=30.8 \frac{m}{s}

v_f= \frac{69}{2} \frac{mile}{hour} =34.5\frac{mile}{hour}=15.4 \frac{m}{s}

a = -0.5 m/s²

Distance calculation

We replace data in the Formula (1)

15.4^2 = 30.8^2+2(-0.5)*d

2(0.5)*d = 30.8^2 - 15.4^2

d =\frac{ 30.8^2 - 15.4^2}{2(0.5) }= 717.6m

d = 717.6 m\frac{1km}{1000m} = 0.7176Km
