When you swing a bucket of water over your head you probably expect a big wet rush of water to soak you as the bucket goes upside down, However if you were swinging the bucket fast enough nothing happens.

Explain the process that causes dew to form on blades of grass.

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Condensation causes dew to form on blades of grass. This is because the water molecules react to the grass when it is heated, and the surroundings became cool. The molecules would bring to calm and turn to liquid.

I just took the test

If an airplane is flying directly north at 300.0 km/h, and a crosswind is hitting the airplane at 50.0 km/h from the east, what

Rashid [163]

Answer:

magnitude = 304.14 km/h

direction: $9.46^o$ West of North

Explanation:

The final plane's vector velocity will be the result of the vector addition of one pointing North of length 300 km/h, another one pointing West of length 50 km/h.

To find the magnitude of the final velocity vector (speed) we need to apply the Pythagorean theorem in a right angle triangle with sides: 300 and 50, and find its hypotenuse:

$|v|=\sqrt{300^2+50^2}=\sqrt{92500} = 304.14$ km/h

The actual direction of the plane is calculated using trigonometry, in particular with the arctan function, since the tangent of the angle can be written as:

$tan(\theta)=\frac{50}{300} = \frac{1}{6} \\\theta = arctan(\frac{1}{6} ) = 9.46^o$

So the resultant velocity vector of the plane has magnitude = 304.14 km/h,

and it points $9.46^o$ West of the North direction.

A cruise ship travels directly toward the dock at a speed of 12 m/s

Thanks for sharing that information. After extensive calculation,
we can say with assurance that after some number of seconds,
a loud "crunch" is perceived by the souls aboard the ill-fated vessel.

The energy of a photon was found to be 3.38 x 10-19 J. Planck's constant is 6.63 x 10-34 J. S. Which color of light corresponds

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The correct option is (c).

Explanation:

Given that,

The energy of a photon is, $E=3.38\times 10^{-19}\ J$

We need to tell the color of this light. We know that, the energy of a photon is given by :

$E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}$

Where

c is the speed of light

$\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{3.38 \times 10^{-19}}\\\\\lambda=5.88\times 10^{-7}\ m\\\\\lambda=588\ nm$

The wavelength of yellow light is approx 580 nm. Hence, we can say that this photon corresponds to yellow light.
