Answer:

646.6 nm

Explanation:

Using the data given, we fit a linear model :

Spectroscope Readings Known Helium Wavelengths (nm)

3.65 388.9

4.75 486.6

4.90 501.6

5.65 587.6

6.45 667.8

7.00 706.5

Using technology like excel to fit the model, the regression model obtained is :

Y = 97.96582X + 27.48458

Where, y is the predicted or corrected wavelength value.

This mod could be used to calculate the corrected wavelength for a given Spectroscope value :

Given a Spectroscope value of 6.32 ; the corrected wavelength is obtained by replacing x in the equation by 6.32 and calculate y ;

Y = 97.96582X + 27.48458

x = 6.32

Y = 97.96582(6.32) + 27.48458

Y = 619.1439824 + 27.48458

Y = 646.6285624

Corrected wavelength value is : 646.6

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

Below is the solution:

W done by Normal = 0. (make the incline flat, Normal force goes directly up: no work done)
<span>W done by gravity = w*displacement = (11kg*9.8) * 7.5sin(35) = -463J </span>
<span>W done by friction is the opposite of the work done by weight because the object is not moving. Therefore W done by friction = 463J</span>

Gravity anything with mass as gravity we know the earth has gravity because you and I are standing on earth and not floating off

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

$F=mg$

Explanation:

Close to Earth's surface, the force of gravity that pulls an object towards the ground is

$F=mg$ (2)

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity, which is $9.81 m/s^2$ close to Earth's surface

This is an approximation of the general formula of gravity valid only close to Earth's surface. The more general formula is

$F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}$ (1)

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the object's mass

r is the distance of the object from Earth's center

At the Earth's surface,

r = R (Earth's radius), and by calling the following factor

$g=\frac{GM}{R^2}$

we see that eq.(1) becomes eq.(2).

A good heat insulator absorbs all, or almost all, of the heat energy
from any heat that flows through it.

A good electrical insulator absorbs all, or almost all, of the energy

A shot putter releases the shot some distance above the level ground with a velocity of 12.0 m/s, 51.0 ∘above the horizontal. Th

alina1380 [7]

A) Zero

The motion of the shot is a projectile's motion: this means that there is only one force acting on the projectile, which is gravity. However, gravity only acts in the vertical direction: so, there are no forces acting in the horizontal direction. Therefore, the x-component of the acceleration is zero.

B) -9.8 m/s^2

The vertical acceleration is given by the only force acting in the vertical direction, which is gravity:

$F=mg$

where m is the projectile's mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. Therefore, the y-component of the shot's acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity:

$a_y = g = -9.8 m/s^2$

where the negative sign means it points downward.

C) 7.6 m/s

The x-component of the shot's velocity is given by:

$v_x = v_0 cos \theta$

where

$v_0 = 12.0 m/s$ is the initial velocity

$\theta=51.0^{\circ}$ is the angle of the shot

Substituting into the equation, we find

$v_x = (12.0 m/s)(cos 51^{\circ})=7.6 m/s$

D) 9.3 m/s

The y-component of the shot's velocity is given by:

$v_y = v_0 sin \theta$

where

$v_0 = 12.0 m/s$ is the initial velocity

$\theta=51.0^{\circ}$ is the angle of the shot

Substituting into the equation, we find

$v_y = (12.0 m/s)(sin 51^{\circ})=9.3 m/s$

E) 7.6 m/s

We said at point A) that the acceleration along the x-direction is zero: therefore, the velocity along the x-direction does not change, so the x-component of the velocity at the end of the trajectory is equal to the x-velocity at the beginning:

$v_x = 7.6 m/s$
