When a piece of metal is heated to high temperatures, it begins to glow red,

Physics
1 answer:
salantis [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The particle model, because the metal is only absorbing radiation

of specific frequencies

Explanation:

The heating of a metal is an example of blackbody radiation. Blackbody radiation refers to the spectrum of light emitted by any heated object; common examples include the heating element of a toaster and the filament of a light bulb. The spectral intensity of blackbody radiation peaks at a frequency that increases with the temperature of the emitting body(Encyclopedia Britianica).

Max Plank proffered explanation to black body radiation by assuming that the oscillators in the heated body emit or absorb energy in discrete frequencies given by E=hf. Hence the energy was directly proportional to the frequency of the oscillator.

An object accelerates 3 m/s2 , when a force of 6 N acts on it. What is the object’s mass
telo118 [61]

Answer:

<h2>2 kg</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

m =  \frac{6}{3}  \\  = 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

A car is initially moving at 10.5 m/s and accelerates uniformly to reach a speed of 21.7 m/s in 4.34 s. How far did the car move
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

A. 69.9m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 10.5m/s

Final velocity  = 21.7m/s

Time  = 4.34s

Unknown:

Distance traveled = ?

Solution:

Let us first find the acceleration of the car;

  Acceleration  = \frac{v - u}{t}

  v is final velocity

   u is initial velocity

   t is the time

     Acceleration  = \frac{21.7 - 10.5}{4.34}   = 2.58m/s²

Distance traveled;

     V² = U² + 2aS

    21.7² = 10.5² + 2 x 2.58 x S

   360.64 = 2 x 2.58 x S

     S = 69.9m

Explain how tidal forces are causing Earth to slow down.
dybincka [34]

Answer: The tidal forces exerted by the moon are directly associated with the earth's rotation. Due to the strong gravitational pull of the moon, the tidal bulging appears on both the sides on earth and these are region of high tide, and there is gradual rise and fall of sea level.

Because of these tidal effect, the earth is able to rotate only once in each of the orbital period.

Chinook salmon are able to move upstream faster by jumping out of the water periodically; this behavior is called porpoising. Su
deff fn [24]

Answer:he formula for average speed is (total distance/total time)

the y-component does not matter in this problem. so do 6.26(cos45)=4.43m/s to find the x-component velocity which is constant throughout the duration of the flight. the total distance is 2L because he travels distance L twice.

the total time is ((time in water)+(time out of water)) since you dont have time you must eliminate it. to do this you need (distance)/(time)=velocity

solve for time and you get T=D/V

time in water is L/3.52 and time out of water is L/4.43

add them together and you get (4.43L+3.52L)/(15.59) = 7.95L/15.59

that value is your total time

divide you total distance (2L) by total time (7.95L/15.59) and the Ls cancel out and you get

(31.18)/(7.95) = 3.92 m/s = Average Speed
