Answer:

c) The wavelength decreases but the frequency remains the same.

Explanation:

Light travels at different speed in different mediums.

Refractive index is equal to velocity of the light 'c' in empty space divided by the velocity 'v' in the substance.

Or ,

n = c/v.

<u>The frequency of the light does not change but the wavelength of the light changes with change in the speed.</u>

c = frequency × Wavelength

Frequency is constant,

The formula can be written as:

n = λ / λn.

Where,  

λn is the wavelength in the medium

λ is the wavelength in vacuum

<u>When the light travels to glass, it speed slows down and also the wavelength decreases as both are directly proportional. There will be no effect on frequency.</u>

A storage tank containing oil (SG=0.92) is 10.0 meters high and 16.0 meters in diameter. The tank is closed, but the amount of o
blagie [28]

Answer:

a-1 Graph is attached. The relation is linear.

a-2 The corresponding height for 68 kPa Pressure is 7.54 m

a-3 The corresponding weight for 68 kPa Pressure is 1394726kg

b The original height of the column is 5.98 m

Explanation:

Part a

a-1

The graph is attached with the solution. The relation is linear as indicated by the line.

a-2

By the equation

P=\rho \times g \times h

Here

  • P is the pressure which is given as 68 kPa.
  • ρ is the density of the oil whose SG is 0.92. It is calculated as

                                       \rho=S.G \times \rho_{water}\\\rho=0.92 \times 1000 kg/m^3\\\rho=920 kg/m^3\\

  • g is the gravitational constant whose value is 9.8 m/s^2
  • h is the height which is to be calculated

                                        P=\rho \times g \times h\\h=\frac{P}{\rho \times g}\\h=\frac{68 \times 10^3}{920 \times 9.8}\\h=7.54m

So the height of column is 7.54m

a-3

By the relation of volume and density

M=\rho \times V

Here

  • ρ is the density of the oil which is 920 kg/m^3
  • V is the volume of cylinder with diameter 16m calculated as follows

                             V=\pi r^2h\\V=3.14\times (8)^2 \times 7.54\\V=1515.23 m^3

Mass is given as

                             M=\rho \times V\\M=920 \times 1515.23\\M=1394726kg

So the mass of oil leading to 68kPa is 1394726kg

Part b

Pressure variation is given as

                            \Delta P=P_{obs}-P_{atm}\\\Delta P=115-101 kPa\\\Delta P=14 kPa\\

Now corrected pressure is as

P_c=P_g-\Delta P\\P_c=68-14 kPa\\P_c=54 kPa

Finding the value of height for this corrected pressure as

P_c=\rho \times g \times h\\h=\frac{P_c}{\rho \times g}\\h=\frac{54 \times 10^3}{920 \times 9.8}\\h=5.98m

The original height of column is 5.98m

a 15 kg tv sots on a shelf at a height of 0.3 m. how much gravitational potential energy is added to the television when it is l
nata0808 [166]
Gravitational potential energy can be described as m*g*h (mass times gravity times height).

Originally,
15kg * 9.8m/s^2 *0.3 m = 44.1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 44.1 Joules.

After it is moved to a 1m shelf:
15kg * 9.8m/s * 1 = 147 kg*m^2/s^2= 147 Joules.

To find how much energy was added, we subtract final energy from initial energy:

147 J - 44.1 J = 102.9 Joules.

Margy is trying to improve her cardio endurance by performing an exercise in which she alternates walking and running 100.0 m ea
madreJ [45]
In order to answer this exercise you need to use the formulas

 S = Vo*t + (1/2)*a*t^2

Vf = Vo + at

The data will be given as

Vf = final velocity = ?

Vo = initial velocity = 1.4 m/s

a = acceleration = 0.20 m/s^2

s = displacement = 100m

And now you do the following:

100 = 1.4t + (1/2)*0.2*t^2

t = 25.388s

and

Vf = 1.4 + 0.2(25.388)

Vf = 6.5 m/s

So the answer you are looking for is 6.5 m/s
