The visible spectrum of sunlight shows a range of colors from red to violet. This spectrum has numerous dark lines spread throug

hout it. Noting that the surface of the Sun is much cooler than the interior, so that the surface is comparable to a cool gas through which light passes, which of the following statements correctly explains the dark lines?
a. The cooler, denser surface material scatters certain wavelengths of light, forming dark lines.
b. The atoms at the surface absorb certain wavelengths of light, causing the dark lines at those wavelengths.
c. The atoms in the Sun’s interior emit light of specific wavelength, so that parts of the spectrum are dark.
d. The atoms at the surface are excited by the high interior temperatures, so that the dark lines are merely wavelengths at which those atoms don’t emit energy.

Two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 1.8×106N , one an angle 11degrees west of north an
sp2606 [1]

Answer: 2,9 ×10¹⁰J.

Explanation:

1. The <em><u>work </u></em>is a measure of energy and is calculated as the product of the displacement times the parallel force to such displacement.

That means that the only components of the force that contribute to work are those that result parallel to the displacement.

2. Since it is given that the <em>two tugboats "pull the tanker a distance 0.83km toward the north"</em>, that is the displacement, and you have to calculate the net force toward the north.

3. <u>Tugboat #1</u>.

a) Force magnitude: F₁ = 1.8×10⁶N

b) Angle: α = 11° West of North

c) North component of the force F₁: Fy₁ = F₁cos(α) =  1.8×10⁶N  × cos(11°) = 1.77×10⁶N

4. <u>Tugboat #2</u>:

a) Force magnitude: F₂ = 1.8×10⁶N

b) Angle:  = 11° East of North

c) North component of the force F₂: Fy₂ = F₂cos(β) =  1.8×10⁶N  × cos(11°) = 1.77×10⁶N =

5. <u>Total net force, Fn</u>:

Fn = Fy₁ + Fy₂ = 1.77×10⁶N + 1.77×10⁶N = 3.54×10⁶N

6. <u>Work, W</u>:

Displacement, d = 0.83 km = 8,300 m

W = Fn×d = 3.54×10⁶N×8,300m = 29,000 ×10⁶J = 2,9 ×10¹⁰J

The answer is rounded to two significant figures because both data, Force and displacement, have two significant figures.

The reason for people to swim easier in salt water than fresh water is because of buoyancy

Explanation:

In fresh water there is lack of minerals and has fresh water alone. The density of fresh water is 1000 kg/m³.  Hence, in fresh water  cannot exert the suitable buoyancy for the swimmer to float easier than that of salt water.

But in Salt water due to enrichment of salts  and minerals it is found that salt water has more density than fresh water. Here the salt water offers more buoyancy to the swimmer to lift him up in the water surface and to swim faster and easier than fresh water.

It is similar to that egg floats in the salt water and sinks inside the fresh water because of its own body weight.

As keisha runs the generator, which best describes what should happen to the needle that measures electric current? it will move
SOVA2 [1]

The diagram shows a simple electric generator. The needle that measures electric current will move back and forth between a largely positive and a large negative value.

  • What is an electric generator?
  1. An electric generator is physically equivalent to an electric motor. but it converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
  2. The electrical field generated is dependent on the inclination of the wire with respect to magnetic field lines, and this inclination changes over time,

because of that she will experience a varying electrical field, and thus a varying electric current will be zero.

The maximum positive value will occur when the wire is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines after one-fourth of rotation, and then zero.

Hence option C is correct.

The diagram shows a simple electric generator. The needle that measures electric current will move back and forth between a largely positive and a large negative value.
