Imagine you are standing in the antarctic during the southern hemisphere summer. the sky is clear and blue. there are no clouds

in the sky. your shadow is cast on the icy ground. what is the color of the shadow?

Answer:

The shadow will appear dark

Explanation:

Your shadow is caused by your body blocking incident light rays from reach the ground under the shadow area. The absence of light means there will be no light reflected from the ground making it appear dark.

Compute the density in g/cm? of a piece of metal that has a mass of 0.450 kg and a volume of 52 cm3

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Ro = 8.65 [g/cm³]

Explanation:

We must remember that density is defined as the ratio of mass to volume.

$Ro=m/V$

where:

m = mass = 0.450 [kg] = 450 [g]

V = volumen = 52 [cm³]

Ro = density [g/cm³]

Now replacing:

$Ro = 450/52\\Ro = 8.65 [g/cm^{3} ]$

Calcular la energía cinética de un cometa cuya masa es de 5×10 elevado a 31 kg y se mueve con velocidad de 216000km/h

PolarNik [594]

The kinetic energy is $9\cdot 10^{40}J$ .

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

K is the kinetic energy of the object

m is the mass of the object

v is the speed of the object

For the comet in this problem, we have:

$m=5\cdot 10^{31} kg$ is its mass

$v=216,000 km/h$ is the speed

First, we convert the speed from km/h to m/s:

$v=216,000 \frac{km}{h} \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=60,000 m/s$

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the comet is

$K=\frac{1}{2}(5\cdot 10^{31})(60,000)^2=9\cdot 10^{40}J$

What happens to the particles in water as the water is heated and turns to vapor? (2 points)

Naddik [55]

Answer:

The particles will more likely to move faster since they are converted from a liquid to gas.

Rules for States of Matter:

1. Solid particles always are packed close together and don't have much space to move.

2. Liquid particles have space to move around but are still packed together, but not as close as solid.

3. Gas particles are moving freely, in fact they are in the air! Gas particles are free to move wherever. For example, the air has gas particles that are constantly bumping into each other.

Let me know if I am right =)

A particle with charge − 2.74 × 10 − 6 C −2.74×10−6 C is released at rest in a region of constant, uniform electric field. Assum

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

241.7 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge of particle= $q=-2.74\times 10^{-6} C$

Kinetic energy of particle= $K_E=6.65\times 10^{-10} J$

Initial time= $t_1=6.36 s$

Final potential difference= $V_2=0.351 V$

We have to find the time t after that the particle is released and traveled through a potential difference 0.351 V.

We know that

$qV=K.E$

Using the formula

$2.74\times 10^{-6}V_1=6.65\times 10^{-10} J$

$V_1=\frac{6.65\times 10^{-10}}{2.74\times 10^{-6}}=2.43\times 10^{-4} V$

Initial voltage= $V_1=2.43\times 10^{-4} V$

$\frac{\initial\;voltage}{final\;voltage}=(\frac{initial\;time}{final\;time})^2$

Using the formula

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=(\frac{6.36}{t})^2$

$\frac{2.43\times 10^{-4}}{0.351}=\frac{(6.36)^2}{t^2}$

$t^2=\frac{(6.36)^2\times 0.351}{2.43\times 10^{-4}}$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{(6.36)^2\times 0.351}{2.43\times 10^{-4}}}$

$t=241.7 s$

Hence, after 241.7 s the particle is released has it traveled through a potential difference of 0.351 V.

Starting at the same time, an arrow and a ball are shot horizontally with a speeds of 50 m/s and 44 m/s respectively from the to

Yuri [45]

Answer:

option D

Explanation:

given.

horizontal velocity of arrow and a ball given as 50 m/s and 44 m/s respectively from the top of a building over flat ground.

In vertical direction, they are both identical

In vertical direction the initial velocity of arrow and a ball is 0 m/s

Their acceleration due to gravity is same for both arrow and a ball 9.8 m/s²

they will react bottom at the same time

time of flight is same for both

now,

In horizontal direction,

distance = speed × time

Since speed is more for arrow, it will travel more horizontal distance at the same time.

the correct answer is option D
