You're most likely to build up enough static charge to receive a  shock by walking around in a carpeted restaurant in the desert. (A)

Walking on carpet is the fastest way to accumulate charge, and the dry desert air prevents the charge from dribbling off of you and away.

When I walked on stones in the Sinai Desert, the dry wind with a little bit of sand or dust in it built up enough static charge on me that I got a shock every time I stood less than a foot away from my partner.

I had the same experience a few years later near Ouarzazate in the interior of Morocco.

When you hear people say "the desert is dry", they mean it's <em>DRY !  </em>

Scientists often use models to study the movement of continents. Why might scientists use a model to show this movement? A. Extr
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Paleontologists have argued for a long time that the demise of the dinosaurs was caused by climatic alterations associated with slow changes in the positions of continents and seas resulting from plate tectonics. Off and on throughout the Cretaceous (the last period of the Mesozoic era, during which dinosaurs flourished), large shallow seas covered extensive areas of the continents. Data from diverse sources, including geochemical evidence preserved in seafloor sediments, indicate that the Late Cretaceous climate was milder than today's. The days were not too hot, nor the nights too cold. The summers were not too warm, nor the winters too frigid. The shallow seas on the continents probably buffered the temperature of the nearby air, keeping it relatively constant.

The viewing screen in a double-slit experiment with monochromatic light. Fringe C is the central maximum. The fringe separation
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

<em>Part A</em><em>:</em>

a) If the wavelength of the light is decreased the fringe spacing Δy will decrease.

<em>Part B</em><em>:</em>

b) If the spacing between the slits is decreased the fringe spacing Δy will increase.

<em>Part C</em><em>:</em>

a) If the distance to the screen is decreased the fringe spacing will decrease.

<em>Part D</em><em>:</em>

The dot in the center of fringe E is 920\ x\ 10^{-9} m farther from the left slit than from the right slit.

Explanation:

In the double-slit experiment there is a clear contrast between the dark and bright fringes, that indicate destructive and constructive interference respectively, in the central peak and then is less so at either side.

The position of bright fringes in the screen where the pattern is formed can be calculated with

                      \vartriangle y =\frac{m \lambda L}{d}

                      m=0,\pm 1,\pm 2,\pm 3,.....

  1. m is the order number.
  2. \lambda is the wavelength of the monochromatic light.
  3. L is the distance between the screen and the two slits.
  4. d is the distance between the slits.
  • Part A:  a) In the above equation for the position of bright fringes we can see that if the wavelength of the light \lambda is decreased the overall effect will be that the fringes are going to be closer. That means that the fringe spacing Δy will decrease.
  • Part B:  b) In the above equation for the position of bright fringes we can see that if the spacing between the slits d is decreased the fringes are going to be wider apart. That means the fringe spacing Δy will increase.
  • Part C:  a) In the above equation we can see that if the distance to the screen L is decreased the fringes are going to be closer. That means the fringe spacing Δy will decrease.
  • Part D: We are told that the central maximum is the fringe C that corresponds with m=0. That means that fringe E corresponds with the order number m=2 if we consider it to be the second maximum at the rigth of the central one. To calculate how much farther from the left slit than from the right slit is a dot located at  the center of the fringe E in the screen we use the condition for constructive interference. That says that the  path length difference Δr between rays coming from the left and right slit must be \vartriangle r=m \lambda

        We simply replace the values in that equation :

                      \vartriangle r= m \lambda =2.\ 460\ nm

                      \vartriangle r= 920\ x\ 10^{-9} m

         The dot in the center of fringe E is 920\ x\ 10^{-9}m farther from the left slit than from the right slit.

A third baseman makes a throw to first base 40.5 m away. The ball leaves his hand with a speed of 30.0 m/s at a height of 1.4 m
Ugo [173]

Answer:

When the ball goes to first base it will be 4.23 m high.

Explanation:

Horizontal velocity = 30 cos17.3 = 28.64 m/s

   Horizontal displacement = 40.5 m

   Time  

         t=\frac{40.5}{28.64}=1.41s          

   Time to reach the goal posts 40.5 m away = 1.41 seconds

Vertical velocity = 30 sin17.3 = 8.92 m/s

    Time to reach the goal posts 40.5 m away = 1.41 seconds

    Acceleration = -9.81m/s²

    Substituting in s = ut + 0.5at²

             s = 8.92 x 1.41 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 1.41²= 2.83 m

    Height of throw = 1.4 m

    Height traveled by ball = 2.83 m

    Total height = 2.83 + 1.4 = 4.23 m

    When the ball goes to first base it will be 4.23 m high.
