Answer:

This can spread their weight.

Explanation:

The ladder has a much larger surface area than the firefighter. Hence, his weight is spread out much more than usual, decreasing the pressure on the ice, preventing the ice from breaking/cracking.

Hope this helped!

How much heat Q2Q2 is transferred to the skin by 25.0 gg of steam onto the skin? The heat of vaporization for steam is L=2.256×1
astraxan [27]

Answer:

56400Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required is expressed as;

Q = mL

m is the mass = 25g = 0.025kg

L is the latent heat of vaporization for steam = 2.256×10^6J/kg

Substitute into the formula as shown;

Q = 0.025×2.256×10^6

Q = 56400Joules

Hence the quantity of hear required is 56400Joules

Fe has the electron configuration [Ar]3d64s2. What is the magnitude of the orbital angular momentum for its most energetic elect
salantis [7]

Answer : The magnitude of the orbital angular momentum for its most energetic electron is, \sqrt{6}\hbar

Explanation :

The formula used for orbital angular momentum is:

L=\sqrt{l(l+1)}\hbar

where,

L = orbital angular momentum

l = Azimuthal quantum number

As we are given the electronic configuration of Fe is, [Ar]3d^64s^2

Its most energetic electron will be for 3d electrons.

The value of azimuthal quantum number(l) of d orbital is, 2

That means, l = 2

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

L=\sqrt{2(2+1)}\hbar

L=\sqrt{6}\hbar

Therefore, the magnitude of the orbital angular momentum for its most energetic electron is, \sqrt{6}\hbar

Consider light energy that is momentarily absorbed in glass and then re-emitted. Compared to the absorbed light, the frequency o
fredd [130]

The frequency of the re-emitted light is identical to that of the absorbed light.

To find the answer, we need to know more about the frequency of light.

<h3> Why the re-emitted light has the same frequency?</h3>
  • The wavelength of the light that is momentarily absorbed in glass and then re-emitted is the same, which explains why the re-emitted light has the same frequency as the absorbed light and the frequency of the absorbed light is the same.
  • An electromagnetic wave's energy is inversely related to its frequency.
  • The relationship between the wave's wavelength and frequency depends on the speed of light:

                              frequency=\frac{c}{wave length} , c is the speed of light.

  • Despite not having mass, light still has energy, and that energy is conserved.
  • As a result, in order for there to be energy conservation, the energy of the light that is received and reemitted must be equal.

Thus, we can conclude that, the re-emitted light's frequency matches the absorbed light's frequency.

A beam strikes an irregular mirror and is reflected as shown below. The angle formed by the incoming beam and the reflected beam
Dominik [7]

Answer:

the correct answer is B

Explanation:

The law of reflection states that the angles of incidence and reflection on a surface are the same, the two rays and the normal are in the same part of the surface.

In this exercise indicate that the angle between the incident and reflected ray is 10, therefore the angle with respect to the normal that is a vertical line at the point of contact of the ray must be 5

Consequently the correct answer is B
