Ultraviolet light is invisible but it gets absorbed by body fluids like blood or semen and can be re-emitted as visible light. In a darkened crime scene, body fluids will show up and can be collected and analysed.

Answer:

Ultra violet detects the presence of radioactive substances. Ultra violet light causes substances to fluoresce and give off visible light.

2. A cinder block is sitting on a platform 20 m high. It weighs 16kg. The block has
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

3136 Joules

Explanation:

Applying,

P.E = mgh.............. Equation 1

Where P.E = potential energy, m = mass of the cinder block, h = height of the platform, g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given: m = 16 kg, h = 20 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

P.E = 16(20)(9.8)

P.E = 3136 Joules

Hence the potential energy of the cinder block is 3136 Joules

Which electromagnet will produce the strongest magnetic force? (1 point)
Contact [7]

Answer:

Y

Explanation:

Y will produce the strongest magnetic force because the current intensity is medium and it has 50 turns in the wire. the number of turns will increase the force because the magnetic field will be more concentrated.

Have a great day :)

A college dorm room measures 14 ft wide by 13 ft long by 6 ft high. What is the air in it under normal conditions?
kirza4 [7]

Complete question:

A college dormitory room measures 14 ft wide by 13 ft long by 6 ft high. Weight density of air is 0.07 lbs/ft3. What is the weight of air in it under normal conditions?

Answer:

the weight of the air is 76.44 lbs

Explanation:

Given;

dimension of the dormitory, = 14 ft by 13 ft by 6 ft

density of the air, = 0.07 lbs/ft³

The volume of the air in the dormitory room = 14 ft x 13 ft x 6 ft

                                                                          = 1092 ft³

The weight of the air = density  x  volume

                                   = 0.07 lbs/ft³  x  1092 ft³

                                   = 76.44 lbs

Therefore, the weight of the air is 76.44 lbs

Alenkinab [10]
To stop the car it would be 100m because if the car is going to 65km/h then it would still be 100km/h

Compare and contrast potential and kinetic energy
inysia [295]
Kinetic and Potential Energy HistoryA roller coaster train going down hill represents merely a complex case as a body is descending an inclined plane. Newton's first two laws relate force and acceleration, which are key concepts in roller coaster physics. At amusement parks, Newton's laws can be applied to every ride. These rides range from 'The Swings' to The 'Hammer'. Newton was also one of the developers of calculus which is essential to analyzing falling bodies constrained on more complex paths than inclined planes. A roller coaster rider is in an gravitational field except with the Principle of Equivalence.Potential EnergyPotential energy is the same as stored energy. The "stored" energy is held within the gravitational field. When you lift a heavy object you exert energy which later will become kinetic energy when the object is dropped. A lift motor from a roller coaster exerts potential energy when lifting the train to the top of the hill. The higher the train is lifted by the motor the more potential energy is produced; thus, forming a greater amount if kinetic energy when the train is dropped. At the top of the hills the train has a huge amount of potential energy, but it <span>has very little kinetic energy.Kinetic Energy The word "kinetic" is derived from the Greek word meaning to move, and the word "energy" is the ability to move. Thus, "kinetic energy" is the energy of motion --it's ability to do work. The faster the body moves the more kinetic energy is produced. The greater the mass and speed of an object the more kinetic energy there will be. Hope this helped:))))</span>
