Answer:

Explanation:

Animals who use echolocation send a special kind of sound, when this sound wave collides with the object it reflect back and animal detect the location, shape and size of object.Example of such animal is bats, whales, dolphins and oilbird. Bats uses echolocation to reach their pray and for their movement at night.

What is the length a rubberband was stretched if it has a spring constant of 5700N/m and is currently holding 8600J OF POTENTIAL

lozanna [386]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=1.74\ m$

Explanation:

<u>Elastic Potential Energy </u>

Is the energy stored in an elastic material like a spring of constant k, in which case the energy is proportional to the square of the change of length Δx and the constant k.

$\displaystyle PE = \frac{1}{2}k(\Delta x)^2$

Given a rubber band of a spring constant of k=5700 N/m that is holding potential energy of PE=8600 J, it's required to find the change of length under these conditions.

Solving for Δx:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\swrt{\frac{2PE}{k}}$

Substituting:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\sqrt{\frac{2*8600}{5700}}$

Calculating:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\sqrt{3.0175}$

$\boxed{\displaystyle \Delta x=1.74\ m}$

Bryce, a mouse lover, keeps his four pet mice in a roomy cage, where they spend much of their spare time–when they\'re not sleep

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

mice total momentum (-0.000250, 0.00639) Kg m

Explanation:

To calculate the moment of the mice we must multiply their mass by their velocities, remember that the moment is a vector quantity, so we use the components of velocity

mouse 1

m1 = 0.0225 Kg

V1 = (0.869, -0.283) m / s

Px = m Vx

Px1 = 0.0225 0.869

Px1 = 0.01955 Kg m

Py = m Vy

Py1 = 0.0225 (-0.283)

Py1 = -0.006368 Kg m

P1 = (0.0196, -0.00637) Kg m

Mouse 2

m2 = 0.0223 Kg

Px2 = 0.0223 (-0.883) = -0.0196 Kg m

Py2 = 0.0223 (-0.253) = -0.00564 Kg m

P2 = (-0.0196, -0.00564) Kg m

Mouse 3

m3 = 0.0197

Px3 = 0.0197 0.345 = 0.00680 Kg m

Py3 = 0.0197 0.803 = 0.0158 Kg m

P3 = (0.00680, 0.0158) Kg m

Mouse4

m4 = 0.0127 Kg

Px4 = 0.0127 (-0.555) = -0.00705 Kg m

Py4 = 0.0127 0.205 = 0.00260 Kg m

P4 = (-0.00705, 0.00260) Kg m

To find the total momentum we must add each component of the individual moments

Px = Px1 + Px2 + Px3 + Px4

Py = py1 + Py2 + Py3 + Py4

Px = 0.0196 -0.0196 +0.00680 -0.00705

Px = -0,000250 Kg m

Py = -0.00637 -0.00564 +0.0158 +0.00260

Py = 0.00639 Kg m

P = (-0.000250, 0.00639) Kg m

The index of refraction for a certain type of glass is 1.641 for blue light and 1.603 for red light. When a beam of white light

exis [7]

Answer:

The angle between the emergent blue and red light is $0.566^{o}$

Explanation:

We have according to Snell's law

$n_{1}sin(\theta _{i})=n_{2}sin(\theta _{r})$

Since medium from which light enter's is air thus $n_{1}=1$

Thus for blue incident light we have

$1\times sin(40.05)=1.641\times sin(\theta _{rb})\\\\\therefore \theta _{rb}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(40.05)}{1.64})\\\\\theta _{rb}=23.10$

Similarly using the same procedure for red light we have

$1\times sin(40.05)=1.603\times sin(\theta _{rr})\\\\\therefore \theta _{rr}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(40.05)}{1.603})\\\\\theta _{rr}=23.66^{o}$

Thus the absolute value of angle between the refracted blue and red light is

$|23.66-23.10|=0.566^{o}$
