Answer: B. Red light is absorbed by the car.

Explanation:

The colour of the object is decided by the wavelength of light that it reflects.

Light with the longest wavelength appears red, and light with the shortest wavelength appears violet. The wavelengths of visible light that an object reflects or transmits determine the color that the object appears to the human eye.

The blue car appears blue as it absorbs red light and reflects blue colour.

A coin rests on a record 0.13 m from its center. The record turns on a turntable that rotates at variable speed. The coefficient

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Maximum speed of the coin, v = 0.607 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

A coin rests on a record 0.13 m from its center i.e. the radius of the circular path, r = 0.13 m

The coefficient of static friction between the coin and the record is, $\mu=0.29$

The centripetal force acting on the coin is balanced by the frictional force. Its mathematical relation is given by :

$\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=\mu mg$

$v=\sqrt{\mu gr}$

$v=\sqrt{0.29\times 9.8\times 0.13}$

v = 0.607 m/s

So, the maximum coin speed at which it does not slip is 0.607 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

When you drop a 0.43 kg apple, Earth exerts

N76 [4]

The magnitude of the Earth's acceleration is $7.0\cdot 10^{-25} m/s^2$

Explanation:

First of all, we start by calculating the magnitude of the force exerted by the apple on the Earth. According to Newton's third law, this is equal to the force exerted by the Earth on the apple, which is the weight of the apple, given by:

$F=mg$
