As light from a star spreads out and weakens, do gaps form between the photons?​

Physics
1 answer:
Zolol [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

There are no gaps in space between the photons as they travel. If you were to look at a wave then you'd come  to a conclusion that indeed that there aren't any gaps unless they are specifically placed.The light from a distance star indeed spreads out and weakens as it travels, but this just reduces the wave strength and does not introduce gaps.

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

According to the formula

  • \\ \boxed{\sf R=\rho\dfrac{\ell}{A}}

So

If we use wide wire we increase the area of cross section so resistance decreases

A young kid of mass m = 36 kg is swinging on a swing. The length from the top of the swing set to the seat is L = 3.5 m. The boy
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy=36 kg

length of swing=3.5 m

Let T be the tension in the swing

At top point mg-T=\frac{mv^2}{r}

where v=velocity needed to complete circular path

Th-resold velocity is given by mg-0=\frac{mv^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{9.8\times 3.5}=5.85 m/s

So apparent weight of boy will be zero at top when it travels with a velocity of v=\sqrt{gr}

To get the velocity at bottom conserve energy at Top and bottom

At top E_T=mg\times 2L+\frac{mv^2}{2}

Energy at Bottom E_b=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}

Comparing two as energy is conserved

v_0^2=4gl+gl

v_0^2=5gL

v_0=\sqrt{5gL}=13.09 m/s

Apparent weight at bottom is given by

W=\frac{mv_0^2}{L}-mg=\frac{36\times 13.09^2}{3.5}+36\times 9.8=2115.23 N

A hair dryer uses 1200 watts of power. Current flow through
KonstantinChe [14]
The answer is: 120V

Power is the rate at which energy is supplied/transformed in time:
we can write:

V ddp in Volts represents Energy/Charge i.e. energy carried by each coulomb;

I current in Amperes represents Charge/time or coulombs passing each seconds.

combining them we have:

Power = energy/time = V • 1

or

1200 = V ⋅ 10
V = 1200/10 = 120V

Potential energy<span> is the </span>energy<span> that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position. It is calculated by the expression PE = mgh where mg is the weight of the book and h is the height. It is calculated as follows:

PE = 50(1) = 50 J
</span>PE = 50(1.5) = 75 J
PE = 50(2) = 100 J
