Answer:

A

Explanation:

Force =  mass x acceleration

if the force is constant for each of the boxes, the smaller a boxes mass the greater its acceleration while the force is applied

Therefore the smaller box will have a greater initial velocity and will slide the furthest before it stops.

(a) A narrow beam of light containing yellow (580 nm) and green (550 nm) wavelengths goes from polystyrene to air, striking the
harina [27]

Answer:

0.043°

Explanation:

Snell's law States that the ratio of the angle of incidence to angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media.

n = sin(i)/sin(r)

n1/n2 = sin(i)/sin(r)

For the green polystyrene

n2 = refractive index of green polystyrene = 1.493

n1 = refractive index of air = 1

1/1.493= sin30°/sin(r1)

sin(r1) = sin30°×1.493

sin(r1) = 0.5×1.493

sin(r1) = 0.7465

r1 = sin^-1(0.7465)

r1 = 48.288°

For the yellow polystyrene

n2 = refractive index of yellow polystyrene = 1.492

n1 = refractive index of air = 1

1.492/1= sin30°/sin(r2)

sin(r2) = sin30°×1.492

sin(r2) = 0.5×1.492

sin(r2) = 0.746

r2 = sin^-1(0.746)

r2 = 48.245°

The angle between the colors when they emerge = r1-r2

angle between the colors when they emerge = 48.288°-48.245°

angle between the colors when they emerge = 0.043°

A penny is dropped from the 82nd Floor Observatory of the Empire State Building. The penny will fall for 8.1s before hitting the
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

<em>vf=79.38 m/s</em>

<em>y= 321.5 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Free Fall Motion</u>

A free-falling object falls under the exclusive influence of gravity. Free-falling objects do not encounter air resistance.

If an object is dropped from rest in a free-falling motion, it falls with a constant acceleration called the acceleration of gravity, which value is g = 9.8 m/s^2.

The final velocity of a free-falling object after a time t is given by:

vf=g.t

The distance traveled by a dropped object is:

\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}

1.

The penny will fall for t=8.1 s before hitting the ground, thus the height from which it was dropped is:

\displaystyle y=\frac{9.8\cdot 8.1^2}{2}

y= 321.5 m

2.

The final velocity is:

vf=9.8\cdot 8.1

vf=79.38 m/s

Write a hypothesis about the effect of the fan speed on the acceleration of the cart. Use the "if . . . then . . . because . . .
Dimas [21]

Answer:

As an object accelerates i.e., change it's velocity(either direction or speed), the position of the object depends on two factor; If the acceleration was direction based then it might have a zero displacement for eg: if it travels in circle. or it might have a net displacement if it travels in a straight line, quantitatively

where,

s = displacement

u = initial velocity

v = final velocity

a = acceleration

t = time

Now, for the hypothesis;

There is no direct relationship between fan speed and acceleration but anyways generally speaking if we do have a relationship that with more fan speed we have a larger displacement of air i.e., a more force i.e., greater acceleration

Thus, it can be said, well not exactly scientific, that with a greater fan speed there will be greater acceleration. if fan speed is increased then acceleration will be more.

Is it possible for a gas contained in a chamber to maintain a constant temperature while heat is being added to the gas? Explain
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:Yes

Explanation:

Yes it is possible for a gas contained in a chamber to maintain a constant temperature while heat is being added to the gas.A process in which temperature of the gas remains constant is called Isothermal Process.For an ideal internal energy is a function of temperature therefore internal energy remains constant while all the heat added is converted to do the work done by the system.

Which statement is an observation from newton experiment with light
xeze [42]

Answer:

White light is composed by a range of colors, this was discovered by Isaac Newton when he observed that a beam of white light was refracted (the different rays of light are diverted depending on their wavelengths) when passing through a prism . This phenomenon was later called dispersion
