An egg is drown at a wall and breaks. A second egg is thrown at the same velocity and collides with a bed sheet. The egg does no

t break. Why does the egg not break when it hits the sheet?

Answer:

The first egg is thrown at a wall and breaks because it has no time to decelerate and it breaks.

While, when a second egg is thrown at wall with same velocity and collides with a bed sheet, it does not break because it get more time to decelerate  or collide with the wall.  It reduces the amount of force exerted on the egg and it does not break.

El espectro visible en el aire está comprendido entre la longitud de onda 450 nm del color azul, Determina la velocidad de propa
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s

Explanation:

The velocity of propagation of a wave is

         v = λ f

in the case of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum the speed that speed of light

         v = c

When the wave reaches a material medium, it is transmitted through a resonant type process, whereby the molecules of the medium vibrate at the same frequency as the wave, as the speed of the wave decreases the only way that they remain the relationship is that the donut length changes in the material medium

         λ = λ₀ / n

where n is the index of refraction of the material medium.

Therefore the expression is

           v = \frac{\lambda_o}{n} f

Let's look for the frequency of blue light in a vacuum

           f =\frac{c }{\lambda_o}  

           f = \frac{3 \ 10^8}{450 \ 10^{-9}}

           f = 6.667 10¹⁴ Hz

the refractive index of air is tabulated

           n = 1,00029

let's calculate

           v = \frac{450 \ 10^{-9} }{1.00029}  \ 6.667 \ 10^{14}450 10-9 / 1,00029 6,667 1014

            v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s

we can see that the decrease in speed is very small

In the photo, a locomotive has broken through the wall of a train station. During the collision, what can be said about the forc
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Whether the force exerted by the locomotive on the wall was larger

Than the force the locomotive could exert on the wall.

Explanation:

The Newton's third law of motion States that every force have it's equal and opposite reaction force, whose magnitude is the same as the applied force. Therefore the magnitude of these opposite forces will be equal.

So we have;

F12=-F21

F12 is the force in a direction

-F21 is the force in the opposite direction.

Therefore we see that the magnitude of the force the locomotive exerts on the wall is equal to the one the wall exerts on the locomotive. Both magnitudes are equal but in opposite directions.

The closest stars are 4 light years away from us. How far away must you be from a 854 kHz radio station with power 50.0 kW for t
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The distance from the radio station is 0.28 light years away.

Solution:

As per the question:

Distance, d = 4 ly

Frequency of the radio station, f = 854 kHz = 854\times 10^{3}\ Hz

Power, P = 50 kW = 50\times 10^{3}\ W

I_{p} = 1\ photon/s/m^{2}

Now,

From the relation:

P = nhf

where

n = no. of photons/second

h = Planck's constant

f = frequency

Now,

n = \frac{P}{hf} = \frac{50\times 10^{3}}{6.626\times 10^{- 34}\times 854\times 10^{3}} = 8.836\times 10^{31}\ photons/s

Area of the sphere, A = 4\pi r^{2}

Now,

Suppose the distance from the radio station be 'r' from where the intensity of the photon is 1\ photon/s/m^{2}

I_{p} = \frac{n}{A} = \frac{n}{4\pi r^{2}}

1 = \frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi r^{2}}

r = \sqrt{\frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi}} = 2.65\times 10^{15}\ m

Now,

We know that:

1 ly = 9.4607\times 10^{15}\ m

Thus

r = \frac{2.65\times 10^{15}}{9.4607\times 10^{15}} = 0.28\ ly
