A girl is shown at position A on a swing when the seat is directly below the support bar. The seat is then at height A as shown

MrRa [10]

Answer:

1. The potential energy of the swing is the greatest at the position B.

2. As the swing moves from point B to point A, the kinetic energy is increasing.

Explanation:

Even though the syntax of the text is not completely clear, likely because it accompanies a drawing that is not included, it results clear that the posittion A is where the seat is at the lowest position, and the position B is upper.

The gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to the height of the objects with respect to some reference altitude. Thus, when the seat is at the position A the swing has the smallest potential energy and when the seat is at the position B the swing has the greatest potential energy.

Regarding the forms of energy, as the swing moves from point B to point A, it is going downward, gaining kinetic energy (speed) at the expense of the potential energy (losing altitude). When the seat passes by the position A, the kinetic energy is maximum and the potential energy is miminum. Then the seat starts to gain altitude again, losing the kinetic energy and gaining potential energy, up to it gets to the other end,

When you turn down the volume on the television, you reduce the _______ carried by the sound waves, so you also reduce their ___

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

when you turn down the volume on the television, you reduce the intensity carried by the sound waves, so you also reduce their amplitude.

Explanation:

When you turn down the volume of the television, you are actually reducing the intensity of the sound wave, which is directly proportional to the amplitude of the sound. Amplitude is height of the sound wave.

Therefore, when you turn down the volume on the television, you reduce the intensity carried by the sound waves, so you also reduce their amplitude.

What can you say about the relationship between the index of refraction and the wavelength of a color?

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

There is a dependency relationship between the refractive index of each substance and the radiation wavelength.

The refractive index in a given medium is inversely proportional to the wavelength of a color.

For example:

The rays of the red color have a wavelength greater than the rays of the blue color, therefore they have a lower refractive index and consequently a light scattering less than the blue.

Snell's law :

n₂/n₁ = v₁/v₂ = λ₁ /λ₂

*n: (refractive index)

v: (speed of light propagation)

λ: (wavelength)

A housefly walking across a clean surface can accumulate a significant positive or negative charge. In one experiment, the large

Lisa [10]

Answer:

$4.56*10^8 \text{ electrons.}$

Explanation:

Since the fly accumulated a positive charge of +73pC, it must have lost an equal number of negative charge of -73pC to the surface (because the housefly was neutral to begin with).

Therefore, to answer our question we have to ask ourselves how many electrons combine to make -73pC of charge?

The answer is since one electron carries a charge of $-1.6*10^{-19}C$ , the number $n$ of electrons that make up -73pC $(-73*10^{-12}C)$ are
