A small diameter lead ball and a large diameter rubber ball are dropped from a tower. The balls hit the ground at the same time.

This demonstration doesn't tell anything about the force of gravity. 
But it does demonstrate that the acceleration of gravity is the same
for all objects, no matter what they weigh.

There are 5510 lines per centimeter in a grating that is used with light whose wavelegth is 467 nm. A flat observation screen is
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

1.696 nm

Explanation:

For a diffraction grating, dsinθ = mλ where d = number of lines per metre of grating = 5510 lines per cm = 551000 lines per metre and λ = wavelength of light = 467 nm = 467 × 10⁻⁹ m. For a principal maximum, m = 1. So,

dsinθ = mλ = (1)λ = λ

dsinθ = λ

sinθ = λ/d.

Also tanθ = w/D where w = distance of center of screen to principal maximum and D = distance of grating to screen = 1.03 m

From trig ratios 1 + cot²θ = cosec²θ

1 + (1/tan²θ) = 1/(sin²θ)

substituting the values of sinθ and tanθ we have

1 + (D/w)² = (d/λ)²

(D/w)² = (d/λ)² - 1

(w/D)² = 1/[(d/λ)² - 1]

(w/D) = 1/√[(d/λ)² - 1]

w = D/√[(d/λ)² - 1] = 1.03 m/√[(551000/467 × 10⁻⁹ )² - 1] = 1.03 m/√[(1179.87 × 10⁹ )² - 1] = 1.03 m/1179.87 × 10⁹  = 0.000848 × 10⁻⁹ = 0.848 × 10⁻¹² m = 0.848 nm.

w is also the distance from the center to the other principal maximum on the other side.

So for both principal maxima to be on the screen, its minimum width must be 2w = 2 × 0.848 nm = 1.696 nm

So, the minimum width of the screen must be 1.696 nm

200 kW of solar radiation is shining on a 300 m^2 parking lot. What is the insulation on the parking lot?
ale4655 [162]

That's "<em><u>insolation</u></em>" ... not "insulation".

'Insolation' is simply the intensity of solar radiation over some area.

If 200 kW of radiation is shining on 300 m² of area, then the insolation is

           (200 kW) / (300 m²) = <em>(666 and 2/3) watt/m²</em> .

Note that this is the intensity of the <em><u>incident</u></em> radiation.  It doesn't say anything
about how much soaks in or how much bounces off.

Wait ! 
I just looked back at the choices, and realized that I didn't answer the question
at all.  I have no idea what  "1 sun"  means.  Forgive me.  I have stolen your
points, and I am filled with remorse.

Wait again !
I found it, through literally several seconds of online research.

           1 sun = 1 kW/m².

So 2/3 of a kW per m²  =  2/3 of 1 sun

That's between 0.5 sun and 1.0 sun.

I feel better now, and plus, I learned something.

A refrigeration cycle has Qout = 1000 Btu and Wcycle = 300 Btu. Determine the coefficient of performance for the cycle.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The coefficient of performance for the cycle is 2.33.

Explanation:

Given that,

Output energy Q_{out}=1000\ Btu

Work done W_{cycle}=300\ Btu

We need to calculate the coefficient of performance

Using formula of  the coefficient of performance

COP=\dftrac{Q_{in}}{W_{cycle}}

We need to calculate the Q_{in}

W_{cycle}=Q_{out}-Q_{in}

Put the value into the formula

300=1000-Q_{in}

Q_{in}=300-1000

Q_{in}=700\ Btu

Now put the value of Q_{in} into the formula of COP

COP=\dfrac{700}{300}

COP=\dfrac{7}{3}=2.33

Hence, The coefficient of performance for the cycle is 2.33.

In which situation is the object experiencing unbalanced forces? A) A box resting on a horizontal floor. B) A car slowing as it
evablogger [386]

"Unbalanced forces" show themselves as a change in the speed
or direction of an object's motion.

The only choice where the speed or direction of motion is changing
is the car that's slowing down for the light.
