Answer:

Explanation:

When they encounter boundaries between different media, the waves react according to Snell’s law, and the angle of refraction across the boundary will depend on the velocity of the second media relative to the first

Use your understanding of heat loss to ESTIMATE the cost of the lost energy through one standard window during an average summer

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The cost of energy is $ 0.34.

Explanation:

The energy is the capacity to do work.

The energy is a scalar quantity and its SI unit is Joule.

The commercial unit of energy is kWh.

Cost of 1 kWh energy = $ 0.17

energy loss by standard window is 2 kWh .

So, the cost of lost of energy is

Cost = $ 0.17 x 2 = $ 0.34

A ball hits a wall horizontally at 6m/s and rebounces at 4.4m/s the ball is in contact with wall for 0.04 sec. what is the accel

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 6 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 4.4 m/s

Time taken (t) = 0.04sec

Find:

Acceleration (a) = ?

Computation:

We know that,

⇒ v = u + at

⇒ a = (v - u) / t

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (4.4 - 6) / 0.04

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (-1.6) / 0.04

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

Mrac [35]

Answer:

$\boxed{q = 1.2 \times {10}^{ - 6} C}$

Explanation:

$f_e = \frac{{q}^{2}k }{ {r}^{2} } \\ q = \sqrt{ \frac{f_e( {r}^{2} )}{k} } = \sqrt{ \frac{5.2(5 \times {10}^{ - 2} )^{2} }{9 \times {10}^{9} } } \\ q =\sqrt{ \frac{5.2(5 \times {10}^{ - 2} )^{2} }{9 \times {10}^{9} } } = \sqrt{ \frac{0.013}{9 \times {10}^{9} } } \\ q = 1.2 \times {10}^{ - 6}$
