2. If rain is falling vertically downward, and you are running for shelter, should you hold your umbrella

Physics
1 answer:
love history [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Tilted forward to keep the driest.

Explanation:

The rain is falling vertically so there is no wind. In these circumstances the umbrella should be tilted vertically forward.

The situation is the same as if you would stand still and the rain would come under an angle from the front.

HELP!!!
Vitek1552 [10]
We shall consider two properties:
1. Temperature difference
2. Thermal conductivity of the material

Use a cylindrical rod of a given material (say steel) which is insulated around its circumference.

One end of the rod is dipped in a large reservoir of water at 100 deg.C and the other end is dipped in water (with known volume) at 40 deg. C. The cold water if stored in a cylinder which is insulated on all sides. A thermometer reads the temperature of the cold water as a function of time.

This experiment will show that
(a) heat flows from a region of high temperature to a region of lower temperature.
(b) The thermal energy of a body increases when heat is added to it, and its temperature will rise.
(c) The thermal conductivity of water determines how quickly its temperature will rise. If mercury replaces water in the cold cylinder, its temperature will rise at a different rate because its thermal conductivity is different.

Desde una altura de 120 m se deja caer un cuerpo. Calcular a los 2,5 s i) la rapidez que lleva; ii) cuánto ha descendido; iii) c
stira [4]

Answer:

i) 24.5 m/s

ii) 30,656 m

iii) 89,344 m

Explanation:

Desde una altura de 120 m se deja caer un cuerpo. Calcule a 2.5 s i) la velocidad que toma; ii) cuánto ha disminuido; iii) cuánto queda por hacer

i) Los parámetros dados son;

Altura inicial, s = 120 m

El tiempo en caída libre = 2.5 s

De la ecuación de caída libre, tenemos;

v = u + gt

Dónde:

u = Velocidad inicial = 0 m / s

g = Aceleración debida a la gravedad = 9.81 m / s²

t = Tiempo de caída libre = 2.5 s

Por lo tanto;

v = 0 + 9.8 × 2.5 = 24.5 m / s

ii) El nivel que el cuerpo ha alcanzado en 2.5 segundos está dado por la relación

s = u · t + 1/2 · g · t²

= 0 × 2.5 + 1/2 × 9.81 × 2.5² = 30.656 m

iii) La altura restante = 120 - 30.656 = 89.344 m.

____ is the detection of halo objects like brown dwarfs when their gravitational fields concentrate the light of distant sources
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Microlensing.

Explanation:

This techniques is called Microlensing.

Microlensing is a method of gravitational lensing where light from a backdrop point of origin is curved to develop distorted, numerous and/or lightened images by the gravity field of a foreground lens.

This method is very effective in discovering planets that are far-far from earth.It is actually an astronomical effect that was predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity.
