Answer:

A. White light is the absence of all color.

Explanation:

It is false that white light is the absence of all color. In fact, white light is the presence of all colors in the spectrum.

Electromagnetic waves are waves that do not require any material medium for propagation. It is the interaction of electric and magnetic fields.

  • The higher frequency electromagnetic waves like the gamma-rays and x-rays have more energy.
  • The sun furnishes the universe with electromagnetic energy.
  • The higher the wavelength, the lesser the energy of the electromagnetic radiation.

An airplane wing is designed so that the speed of the air across the top of the wing is 255 m/s when the speed of the air below
grin007 [14]
<h2>Answer:442758.96N</h2>

Explanation:

This problem is solved using Bernoulli's equation.

Let P be the pressure at a point.

Let p be the density fluid at a point.

Let v be the velocity of fluid at a point.

Bernoulli's equation states that P+\frac{1}{2}pv^{2}+pgh=constant for all points.

Lets apply the equation of a point just above the wing and to point just below the wing.

Let p_{up} be the pressure of a point just above the wing.

Let p_{do} be the pressure of a point just below the wing.

Since the aeroplane wing is flat,the heights of both the points are same.

\frac{1}{2}(1.29)(255)^{2}+p_{up}= \frac{1}{2}(1.29)(199)^{2}+p_{do}

So,p_{up}-p_{do}=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.29\times (25424)=16398.48Pa

Force is given by the product of pressure difference and area.

Given that area is 27ms^{2}.

So,lifting force is 16398.48\times 27=442758.96N

It takes 15 min to drive 6.0 mi in a straight line to the local hospital. It takes 10 min to go the last 3.0 mi, 2.0 min to go t
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

36.87 km/h

Explanation:

Convert all the units in SI system

1 mile = 1609.34 m

d1 = 6 mi = 9656.04 m

t1 = 15 min = 15 x 60 = 900 s

d2 = 3 mi = 4828.02 m

t2 = 10 min = 10 x 60 = 600 s

d3 = 1 mi = 1609.34 m

t3 = 2 min = 2 x 60 = 120 s

d4 = 0.5 mi = 804.67 m

t4 = 0.5 min = 0.5 x 60 = 30 s

Total distance, d = d1 + d2 + d3 + d4

d = 9656.04 + 4828.02 +  1609.34 + 804.67 = 16898.07 m = 16.898 km

total time, t = t1 + t2 + t3 + t4

t = 900 + 600 + 120 + 30 = 1650 s = 0.4583 h

The ratio of the total distance covered to the total time taken is called average speed.

Average speed = 16.898 / 0.4583 = 36.87 km/h

Se colocan tres objetos, muy cerca uno del otro, dos al mismo tiempo. Cuando se juntan los objetos A y B, se repelen. Cuando se
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Los objetos A y C tienen cargas del mismo signo (opcion a)

Explanation:

Hay dos tipos de cargas : cargas positivas y cargas negativas.

La Ley de Coulomb dice que la fuerza electrostática entre dos cargas puntuales es proporcional al producto de las cargas e inversamente proporcional al cuadrado de la distancia que las separa, y tiene la dirección de la línea que las une y se cumple que:

  • La fuerza ejercida sobre una carga apunta hacia la otra cuando las dos tienen distinto signo (fuerza atractiva).
  • El sentido de la fuerza se dirige hacia el lado opuesto de la carga cuando ambas tienen el mismo signo (fuerza repulsiva).

Es decir que las cargas de igual signo se repelen, mientras que las de diferente signo se atraen.

Entonces, si se juntan los objetos A y B y se repelen significa que la carga es del mismo signo.

Cuando se acercan los objetos B y C, se repelen. Entonces significa que posee carga de igual signo.

Por lo que podes concluir que <u><em>los objetos A y C tienen cargas del mismo signo (opcion a)</em></u>

An electric field of 1.27 kV/m and a magnetic field of 0.490 T act on a moving electron to produce no net force. If the fields a
lesantik [10]

Answer:

v = 2591.83 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The electric field is 1.27 kV/m and the magnetic field is 0.49 T. We need to find the electron's speed if the fields are perpendicular to each other. The magnetic force is balanced by the electric force such that,

qE=qvB\\\\v=\dfrac{E}{B}\\\\v=\dfrac{1.27\times 10^3}{0.49}\\\\v=2591.83\ m/s

So, the speed of the electron is 2591.83 m/s.

What is the average velocity of an arrow that travels 12 m [E] in 0.15 s?
sergij07 [2.7K]
Velocity is defined as Distance divided by Time.
In other words, V = D/T.

Now that we have our formula, we can solve.
Let's plug in the numbers we have.

We have 12m [East (direction not necessary when solving yet)] for our distance, and 0.15s as our time.

Divide the distance (12 /) by the time (0.15)
12 / 0.15 = 80.

Your velocity is 80 m/s [E]

I hope this helps!
