Answer:

I believe a CD or DVD rainbow is actually reflection grating, but...

So I believe this is false.

Though it is possible to make it transmissive.

At noon, ship A is 140 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 30 km/h and ship B is sailing north at 25 km/h. How fast (in
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The rate of change of distance between the two ships is 18.63 km/h

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two ships, d = 140 km

speed of ship A = 30 km/h

speed of ship B = 25 km/h

between noon (12 pm) to 4 pm = 4 hours

The displacement of ship A at 4pm = 140 km - (30 km/h x 4h) =

140 km - 120 km = 20 km

(the subtraction is because A is moving away from the initial position and the distance between the two ships is decreasing)

The displacement of ship B at 4pm = 25 km/h x 4h = 100 km

Using Pythagoras theorem, the resultant displacement of the two ships at 4pm is calculated as;

r² = a²   +  b²

r² = 20²  +  100²

r = √10,400

r = 101.98 km

The rate of change of this distance is calculated as;

r² = a²   +  b²

r = 101.98 km, a = 20 km, b = 100 km

2r(\frac{dr}{dt} ) = 2a(\frac{da}{dt} )  + 2b(\frac{db}{dt} )\\\\r(\frac{dr}{dt} ) = a(\frac{da}{dt} )  + b(\frac{db}{dt} )\\\\101.98(\frac{dr}{dt} ) = 20(-30 )  + 100(25 )\\\\101.98(\frac{dr}{dt} ) = -600 + 2,500\\\\101.98(\frac{dr}{dt} ) = 1900\\\\\frac{dr}{dt}  = \frac{1900}{101.98} = 18.63 \ km/h

A block floats partially submerged in a container of liquid. When the entire container is accelerated upward, which of the follo
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:C

Explanation:

Partially submerged block along with vessel is accelerated upwards .

Initially the block weight is supported by buoyant force such that it is in equilibrium.

when the system start accelerating upwards then the effective gravity will be

g+a where a is the acceleration of the system.

so only net gravity is increased so block will not ascend or descend.

Mathematically

F_b=weight

\rho _L\cdot V\cdot (g+a)=m(g+a)

where \rho _L=density of liquid

V=volume of object inside the water

At what point on the paraboloid y = x2 z2 is the tangent plane parallel to the plane 3x 2y 5z = 8?
salantis [7]
To find the tangent plane to the surface f(x,y,z)=0 at a point (X,Y,Z) we use the following method: 

<span>Calculate grad f = (f_x, f_y, f_z). The normal vector to the surface at the point (X,Y,Z) is grad f(X,Y,Z). The equation of a plane with normal vector n which passes through the point p is (r-p).n=0, where r=(x,y,z) is the position vector. So the equation of the tangent plane to the surface through the point (X,Y,Z) is ((x,y,z)-(X,Y,Z)).grad f(X,Y,Z)=0. </span>

<span>Now in your case we have f(x,y,z)=y-x^2-z^2, so grad f=(-2x,1,-2z), and the equation of the tangent plane at the point (X,Y,Z) is </span>

<span>((x,y,z)-(X,Y,Z)).(-2X,1,-2Z)=0, </span>

<span>that is </span>

<span>-2X(x-X)+1(y-Y)-2Z(z-Z)=0, </span>

<span>i.e. </span>

<span>-2Xx+y-2Zz = -2X^2+Y-2Z^2. (1) </span>

<span>Now compare this equation with the plane </span>

<span>x + 2y + 3z = 1. (2) </span>

<span>The two planes a_1x+b_1y+c_1z=d_1, a_2x+b_2y+c_2z=d_2 are parallel when (a_1,b_1,c_1) is a multiple of (a_2,b_2,c_2). So the two planes (1),(2) are parallel when (-2X,1,-2Z) is a multiple of (1,2,3), and we have </span>

<span>(-2X,1,-2Z)=1/2(1,2,3) </span>

<span>for X=-1/4 and Z=-3/4. On the paraboloid the corresponding y coordinate is Y=X^2+Z^2=1^4+9^4=5/2. </span>

<span>So the tangent plane to the given paraboloid at the point (-1/4,5/2,-3/4) is parallel to the given plane.</span>
