1 answer:
Dmitrij [34]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

the action of polarizing or state of being or becoming polarized: such as the action or process of affecting radiation and especially light so that the vibrations of the wave assume a definite form. Polarization, in Physics, is defined as a phenomenon caused due to the wave nature of electromagnetic radiation. There are two types of waves, transverse waves, and longitudinal waves.

Two children of mass 27 kg and 51 kg sit balanced on a seesaw with the pivot point located at the center of the seesaw. If the c
Flauer [41]

Answer:

2.62 m

Explanation:

Let the small child sit at a distance x from the pivot.

The distance of big child from the pivot is 4 - x .

By using the concept of moments.

Clockwise moments = anticlockwise moments

27 x = 51 ( 4 - x )

27 x = 204 - 51 x

78 x = 204

x = 2.62 m

Can there be any heat transfer between two bodies that are at the same temperature but at different pressures?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

When the two bodies at different temperatures then heat transfer takes place between two bodies. Temperature is the necessary condition for the heat transfer.

The energy can flow due to pressure difference but the heat transfer can not take place only due to pressure difference. Heat transfer needs temperature difference.

Therefore the answer will be No.

Compare the collision between two baseballs and a catcher's mitt.
Nookie1986 [14]

The applied force is different for the two cases

The case A with a greater force involves the greatest momentum change

The case A involves the greatest force.

<h3>What is collision?</h3>
  • This is the head-on impact between two object moving in opposite or same direction.

The initial momentum of the two ball is the same.

P = mv

where;

  • m is the mass of each
  • v is the initial velocity of each ball

Since the force applied by the arm is different, the final velocity of the balls before stopping will be different.

Thus, the final momentum of each ball will be different

The impulse experienced by each ball is different since impulse is the change in momentum of the balls.

J = ΔP

The force applied by the rigid arm is greater than the force applied by the relaxed arm because the force applied by the rigid arm will cause the ball to be brought to rest faster.

Thus, we can conclude the following;

  • The applied force is different for the two cases
  • The case A with a greater force involves the greatest momentum change
  • The case A involves the greatest force.

A baseball is thrown with an initial velocity of 45.4 m/s at an angle of 31.2 ∘ .
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

V (initial vertical velocity) = 45.4 sin 31.2 = 23.52 m/s

1/2 m V^2 = m g h      conservation of energy

h = V^2 / (2 g) = 23.52^2 / 19.6 = 28.2 m       max height

Check:

t = 28.2 / 9.8 = 2.88 sec    time to reach max height

h = 23.52 * 2.88 - 1/2 g 2.88^2 = 27.1 m
