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.

In figure 16-2 is the temperature of the material within the cylinder greatest during the intake stroke, compression stroke, pow
erastovalidia [21]
Technically, we have no way of knowing that without seeing Figure 16-2.
So the question should be reported for incomplete content.  But I'm
going to take a wild stab at it anyway.

There's so much discussion of 'cylinder' and 'strokes' in the question,
I have a hunch that it's talking about the guts of a 4-stroke internal
combustion gasoline engine. 

If I'm right, then the temperature of the material within the cylinder is
greatest right after the spark ignites it.  At that instant, the material burns, 
explodes, expands violently, and drives the piston down with its stiff shot
of pressure.

This is obviously happening because of the great, sudden increase in
temperature when the material ignites and explodes.

It hits the piston with pressure, which leads directly to the power stroke.

What would a series circuit be used for?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

a series circuit would be an odd choice to power a battery or light a lamp when a direct would be much more efficient, and it's not converting types of energy, so C is the best possible answer

A 2.0-Coulomb bead is given 20 Joules of electric potential energy by lifting it from the "ground" to point A. If a second bead
Katen [24]

Answer:

40 J

Explanation:

c_1 = 4 C

c_2 = 2 C

U_1 = 20 J

The potential energy is directly proportional to the charge of the particle

U\propto c

\dfrac{U_2}{U_1}=\dfrac{c_2}{c_1}\\\Rightarrow U_2=\dfrac{U_1c_2}{c_1}\\\Rightarrow U_2=\dfrac{20\times 4}{2}\\\Rightarrow U_2=40\ J

The potential energy expected is 40 J
