Answer:

This question is incomplete, the options are:

A) The object absorbs most white light and refracts most green light.

B) The object refracts most white light and absorbs most green light.

C) More green light is absorbed while more red and blue light is reflected.

D) More green light is reflected while more red and blue light is absorbed.

The answer is D.

Explanation:

Light is an electromagnetic wave that contains different colours at different wavelength. The colour of light that is seen depends on the wavelength of light that is REFLECTED, while other wavelengths of light are ABSORBED. This feature is dependent on the properties of each object that received the sunlight.

For example, an object will appear GREEN because it has properties that enables it to REFLECT most of the GREEN LIGHT but absorbs most of the RED AND BLUE LIGHT in the sunlight passing through the object.

Four equal masses m are so small they can be treated as points, and they are equallyspaced along a long, stiff mass less wire. T
gavmur [86]

The moment of inertia of a point mass about an arbitrary point is given by:

I = mr²

I is the moment of inertia

m is the mass

r is the distance between the arbitrary point and the point mass

The center of mass of the system is located halfway between the 2 inner masses, therefore two masses lie ℓ/2 away from the center and the outer two masses lie 3ℓ/2 away from the center.

The total moment of inertia of the system is the sum of the moments of each mass, i.e.

I = ∑mr²

The moment of inertia of each of the two inner masses is

I = m(ℓ/2)² = mℓ²/4

The moment of inertia of each of the two outer masses is

I = m(3ℓ/2)² = 9mℓ²/4

The total moment of inertia of the system is

I = 2[mℓ²/4]+2[9mℓ²/4]

I = mℓ²/2+9mℓ²/2

I = 10mℓ²/2

I = 5mℓ²

Two long parallel wires are separated by 6.0 mm. The current in one of the wires is twice the other current. If the magnitude of
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnitude of force per unit length of wire on each of wires

= μ₀ x 2 i₁ x i₂ / 4π r    where i₁ and i₂ are current in the two wires , r is distance between the two and  μ₀ is permeability .

Putting the values ,

force per unit length = 10⁻⁷ x 2 x i x 2i / ( 6 x 10⁻³ )

= .67 i² x 10⁻⁴

force on 3 m length

= 3 x .67 x 10⁻⁴ i²

Given ,

8 x 10⁻⁶ = 3 x .67 x 10⁻⁴ i²

i²  = 3.98 x 10⁻²

i = 1.995 x 10⁻¹

= .1995

=  0.2 A approx .

2 i = .4 A Ans .

1-Find the gravitational force
butalik [34]

g = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant and is about 6.67 * 10^{-11}

g = \frac{6.67 * 10^{-11} * 25 * 0.55}{35^2}

g = \frac{6.67 * 10^{-11} * 25 * 0.55}{1225} = 0.000000000000749 N :D

In 2000, NASA placed a satellite in orbit around an asteroid. Consider a spherical asteroid with a mass of 1.40×1016 kg and a ra
Arturiano [62]

A) 8.11 m/s

For a satellite orbiting around an asteroid, the centripetal force is provided by the gravitational attraction between the satellite and the asteroid:

m\frac{v^2}{(R+h)}=\frac{GMm}{(R+h)^2}

where

m is the satellite's mass

v is the speed

R is the radius of the asteroide

h is the altitude of the satellite

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the asteroid

Solving the equation for v, we find

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}

where:

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}

M=1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg

R=8.20 km=8200 m

h=6.00 km = 6000 m

Substituting into the formula,

v=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg)}{8200 m+6000 m}}=8.11 m/s

B) 11.47 m/s

The escape speed of an object from the surface of a planet/asteroid is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}

where:

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}

M=1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg

R=8.20 km=8200 m

h=6.00 km = 6000 m

Substituting into the formula, we find:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(1.40\cdot 10^{16}kg)}{8200 m+6000 m}}=11.47 m/s
