How shadows are formed?​

Physics
1 answer:
Y_Kistochka [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Shadows are formed when an opaque object or material is placed in the path of rays of light. The opaque material does not let the light pass through it. The light rays that go past the edges of the material make an outline for the shadow.

A forklift raises a 72-kg crate onto a shelf 3.6 meters above the floor. How much gravitational potential energy does the crate
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

<h2>2540.16 J</h2>

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

GPE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

GPE = 72 × 9.8 × 3.6 = 2540.16

We have the final answer as

<h3>2540.16 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

Explain how the zodiacal constellations are different from the other constellations.
Temka [501]

Answer:

They lie on the Ecliptic (apparent path of the Sun around Earth)

Explanation:

There are total 88 constellations in the sky out of which only 12 are considered as zodiacal constellations or Sun signs. This is because these are the constellations which lie on the Ecliptic.

Ecliptic is the apparent path of Sun around the Earth.

In other words, it can be said that the Sun appears to reside in 12 constellations throughout the year as the Earth revolves around it.

Odysseus has returned from his epic voyage across the seas and gets off his boat at the end of a 50 meter pier. His beloved Pene
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

We know that:

Distance between Odysseus and Penelope = 50m

Speed of Odysseus = So = 4m/s

Speed of Penelope = Sp = 6m/s.

Now we want to find the equation of motion for Odysseus.

First, let's find the amount of time that he is moving, we know that when he meets with Penelope, he will stop moving.

Now they weel meet each other when the total distance traveled by both of them is equal to 50m.

Then, recalling that:

Distance = Time*speed.

50m = 4m/s*t + 6m/s*t = 10m/s*t

t = 50m/10m/s = 5s

They will move for 5 seconds.

Now we can write the movement equation for Odysseus as:

p(t) = 4m/s*t + p0 for (0s ≤ t ≤ 5s)

Where p0 is the initial position of Odysseus, and because we can put our coordinate axis where we want, we can define p0 = 0m.

Then the position of Odysseus is:

P(t) = 4m/s*t                    if 0s ≤ t ≤ 5s

P(t) = 4m/s*5s = 20m     if t > 5s.

The second piece says that for t larger than 5 seconds, he will not move (at least for a given amount of time)

Albert dressed as TWO-FACE flips a coin up in the air at an upward velocity of 5.00 m/s. He fails to catch it on the way down an
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

1.28 m, 14 m/s

Explanation:

At the maximum height, the velocity is 0.

Given:

a = -9.8 m/s²

v₀ = 5.00 m/s

v = 0 m/s

x₀ = 0 m

Find:

x

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

(0 m/s)² = (5.00 m/s)² + 2(-9.8 m/s²) (x - 0 m)

x = 1.28 m

The maximum speed is at the bottom of the well.

Given:

a = -9.8 m/s²

v₀ = 5.00 m/s

x₀ = 0 m

x = -8.5 m

Find:

v

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

v² = (5.00 m/s)² + 2(-9.8 m/s²) (-8.5 m - 0 m)

v = -13.8 m/s

Rounded to 2 sig-figs, the maximum speed is 14 m/s.
