what do you think is the purpose of a periscope? Are there any other uses for periscopes besides for submarines?

spin [16.1K]

Military personnel also use periscopes in some gun turrets and in armoured vehicles. More complex periscopes using prisms or advanced fibre optics instead of mirrors and providing magnification operate on submarines and in various fields of science

A fire helicopter carries a 700-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20.0-m long cable. Flying back from a fire at a constant spee

rodikova [14]

Answer:

F = 50636.873 N

Explanation:

given,

bucket of water = 700-kg

length of cable = 20 m

Speed = 40 m/s

angle of the cable = 38.0°

let air resistance be = F

tension in rope be = T

T cos 38° = m×g..................(1)

$T sin 38^0= \dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F$ ..........(2)

equation (1)/(2)

$tan 38^0 =\dfrac{\dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F}{mg}$

$0.781=\dfrac{\dfrac{700\times 40^2}{20} + F}{700\times 9.8}$

F = 50636.873 N

Hence the force exerted on the bucket is equal to F = 50636.873 N

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Therefore the rate of corrosion 37.4 mpy and 0.952 mm/yr.

Explanation:

The corrosion rate is the rate of material remove.The formula for calculating CPR or corrosion penetration rate is

$CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}$

K= constant depends on the system of units used.

W= weight =485 g

D= density =7.9 g/cm³

A = exposed specimen area =100 in² =6.452 cm²

K=534 to give CPR in mpy

K=87.6 to give CPR in mm/yr

mpy

$CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}$

$=\frac{534\times( 485g)\times( 10^3mg/g)}{(7.9g/cm^3) \times (100in^2)\times (24h/day)\times (365day/yr)\times 1yr}$

=37.4mpy

mm/yr

$CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}$

$=\frac{87.6\times (485g)\times (10^3 mg/g)}{(7.9g/cm^3)\times (100in^2)\times(2.54cm/in)^2\times (24h/day)\times (365day/yr)\times 1yr}$

=0.952 mm/yr

Therefore the rate of corrosion 37.4 mpy and 0.952 mm/yr.

A transverse wave on a long horizontal rope with a

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is related to its wavelength and speed by the equation

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$

where

f is the frequency

v is the speed of the wave

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

v = 2 m/s

$\lambda=8 m$

So the frequency is

$f=\frac{2}{8}=0.25 Hz$

The period of a wave is equal to the reciprocal of the frequency, so for this wave:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.25}=4 s$

This means that the wave takes 4 seconds to complete one full cycle.

Therefore, the time taken for the wave to go from a point with displacement +A to a point with displacement -A is half the period, therefore for this wave:

$t=\frac{T}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2 s$
