Please answer my question!,

Physics
1 answer:
Karolina [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Hope this helps! Mark as brainliest if liked thanks!

Explanation:

Your reasoning that the shadow is the shortest at mid-day is spot-on!

The wording of the question is the key to the answer. It says that the measurements were made in Summer. So this means that British Summer Time (BST) is being applied. BST is one hour ahead of Greenwich Mean Time and so what looks like 1pm is really 12 noon.

The safest sort of answer is to say that the shadow is shortest when the sun is at its highest point, and in this particular question that is at 1 pm because it is BST.

What was the measurement of the wavelength and amplitude respectively?
SpyIntel [72]
<h3>Answer</h3>

option C)

The wavelength has a length between 7.0 cm and 8.0 cm and the amplitude lies between 1.0 cm and 2.0 cm.

<h3>Explanation</h3><h2>1)</h2>

The amplitude of a wave is the height of a wave as measured from the highest point on the wave, peak, to the rest point or from  the lowest point on the wave, trough, to the rest point.

By looking at the image

rest point is at 5cm and crest is at 3.3 cm (y-axis)

so amplitude = 5 - 3.3

                      = 1.7 cm (approximately)

<h2>2)</h2>

Wavelength refers to the length of a wave from one peak to the next.

one crest is at 2cm and the other crest is at 10cm (x-axis)

so wavelength = 10 - 2

                          = 8 cm (approximately)

3.5 g of a hydrocarbon fuel is burned in a vessel that contains 250. grams of water initially at 25.00 C. After the combustion,
kherson [118]

Answer:

3.) 463 J/g

Explanation:

Heat given by the fuel is used to increase the temperature of the water

so it is given as

Q = ms\Delta T

here we will have

m = 250 g

\Delta T = 26.55 - 25

now we also know that

s = 4186

so we have

Q = (0.250)(4186)(26.55 - 25)

Q = 1622.075 J

so 3.5 g fuel gives above energy

so per gram of fuel will have total energy given as

Q = \frac{1622.075}{3.5}

Q = 463.45 J/g

A particular frost-free refrigerator uses about 710kWh of electrical energy per year. Express this amount of energy in J, kJ, &a
Dafna11 [192]
<span>A particular frost-free refrigerator uses about 710kWh of electrical energy per year. You are to express this amount of energy in J, kJ, & Calories. 

1 year (365 days / 1 year)(24 hours / 1 day)(3600s / 1h) = 31,536,000s

710 kWh/yr (1 yr) = 710 kWh
710 x 10^3 Wh = </span>710 x 10^3(J/s)(31,536,000s)<span> = 2.24 x 10^13 J
</span>2.24 x 10^13 J = 2.24 x 10^10 kJ = 5.35 x 10^12 cal

When is the velocity of a mass on a spring at its maximum value?
ehidna [41]

Answer:

A.  when the mass has a displacement of zero

Explanation:

The velocity of a mass on a spring can be calculated by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact, the total energy of the mass-spring system is equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy (U) of the spring and the kinetic energy (K) of the mass:

E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement of the mass with respect to the equilibrium position of the spring

m is the mass

v is the velocity of the mass

Since the total energy E must remain constant, we can notice the following:

- When the displacement is zero (x=0), the velocity must be maximum, because U=0 so K is maximum

- When the displacement is maximum, the velocity must be minimum (zero), because U is maximum and K=0

Based on these observations, we can conclude that the velocity of the mass is at its maximum value when the displacement is zero, so the correct option is A.
