Answer:

48 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be found using the following formula:

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where <em>m </em>is the mass in kilograms and <em>v </em>is the velocity in m/s.

We know the mass is 24 kilograms and the velocity is 2 m/s Therefore, substitute 24 in for <em>m </em>and 2 in for <em>v. </em>

<em />KE=\frac{1}{2}*24*2^2<em />

Evaluate the exponent first. 2^2 is the same as multiply 2, 2 times.

2^2=2*2=4

KE=\frac{1}{2}*24*4

Multiply 24 and 4

KE=\frac{1}{2} *96

Multiply 96 and 1/2, or divide 96 by 2.

KE=48

Add appropriate units. Kinetic energy uses Joules, or J

KE=48 Joules

The kinetic energy is 48 Joules

NemiM [27]

Answer:

- the coating’s index of refraction is 1.25

- the required thickness is 104.1667 nm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Thickness of coating t = 100 nm

wavelength λ = 500nm

we know that refractive index is;

t = λ/4n

make n, the subject of formula

t4n = λ

n = λ / 4t

we substitute

n = 500 / ( 4 × 100 )

n = 500 / 400

n = 1.25

Therefore, the coating’s index of refraction is 1.25

2)

given that;

Index of refraction of the coating; n = 1.20

λ = 500 nm

thickness of coating t = ?

t = λ / 4n

we substitute

t = 500 / ( 4 × 1.2 )

t = 500 / 4.8

t = 104.1667 nm

Therefore, the required thickness is 104.1667 nm

Umnica [9.8K]
Scale: (soft 1-->6 hardest)
<span>1=Talc 2=Gypsum 3=Calcite 4=Fluorite 5=Apatite 6=Orthoclase

</span>Mineral #1 can only scratch two other minerals therefore it must have a hardness level of 2+1=3 which is Calcite. (scratches talc, gypsum)

Mineral #2 can scratch four other minerals therefore it must have a hardness level of 4+1=5 which is Apatite. (scratches all but Apatite, Orthoclase)

Looking through the possible conclusions.. It looks like answer is D.

NASA developed a reflective foil barrier to help shield spacecraft from heat transfer in space. These reflective barriers are no
morpeh [17]

Answer: Radiation

Explanation: Radiation is the energy that comes from a source in form of electromagnetic waves, subatomic particles, light, or heat which travels through space.

Examples of radiation include the light, heat, and particles emitted from the Sun.

Using a foil barrier to prevent heat transfer is possible because foil has a silver color, and silver reflects light and heat instead of absorbing them. This is the opposite of black surfaces that absorb heat.

So in homes where these foil reflective barriers are used, the transfer of heat through Radiation is highly reduced.
