<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>A black T-shirt </em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

<em><u>Materials can be either reflectors and absorbers of waves such as light waves, sound waves etc.</u></em> Reflectors are those materials that reflects waves, such that the waves bounces back on hitting the surface of those materials.
Examples of such materials are those <em><u>with smooth and shiny surfaces, while those with rough and opaque surfaces are poor reflectors of light. </u></em>Additionally, these materials that are good reflectors are poor absorbers while those that are poor reflectors are good absorbers of light.
<u><em>Dull surfaces are the best emitters and absorbers of light but the worst reflectors of light waves.</em></u> White surfaces or polished surfaces are bad and worst emitters and absorbers of light waves respectively

An 85,000 kg stunt plane performs a loop-the-loop, flying in a 260-m-diameter vertical circle. at the point where the plane is f

konstantin123 [22]

A) When the plane is flying straight down, there are three forces acting on it:
- the centripetal force $F=m \frac{v^2}{r}$ , directed toward the center of the circle (so, horizontally)
- the weight of the plane: $W=mg$ , downward, so vertically
- a third force, given by the propulsion of the plane, which is accelerating it towards the ground (because the problem says that the plane has an acceleration of a=12 m/s^2 towards the ground)

The radius of the circle is $r= \frac{260 m}{2} = 130 m$ , so the centripetal force acting on the plane is
$F_c=m \frac{v^2}{r} = \frac{(85000 kg)(55 m/s)^2}{130 m}=1.98 \cdot 10^6 N$
On the vertical axis, we have two forces: the weight
$W=mg=(85000 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=8.34 \cdot 10^5 N$
and the other force F given by the propulsion. Since we know that their sum should generate an acceleration equal to $a=12 m/s^2$ , we can find the magnitude of this other force F by using Newton's second law:
$F+mg=ma$
$F=m(a-g)=(85000kg)(12 m/s^2-9.81 m/s^2)=1.86 \cdot 10^5 N$

So, the net force acting on the plane will be the resultant of the centripetal force (acting in the horizontal direction) and the two forces W and F (acting in the vertical direction):
$R= \sqrt{(F_c^2+(W+F)^2}=$
$= \sqrt{(1.98\cdot 10^6N)^2+(8.34 \cdot 10^5N+1.86 \cdot 10^5 N)^2} =2.23 \cdot 10^6 N$

(b) The tangent of the angle with respect to the horizontal is the ratio between the sum of the forces in the vertical direction (taken with negative sign, since they are directed downward) and the forces acting in the horizontal direction, so:
$\tan \theta = \frac{-(W+F)}{F_c}= -0.5$
And so, the angle is
$\theta = \arctan (-0.5)=-26.8 ^{\circ}$

James and Juan were at the highest point in the football stadium, dropping water balloons on people below. Many of the balloons

Fofino [41]

When you add more water to the balloon, it makes it heavier. Therefore it would weigh the balloon down ( increasing mass) and increasing the energy to plummet down. So the answer is B.

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The smallest part of a millimeter that can be read with a digital caliper with a four digit display is 0.02mm. Thus, it has to be converted to centimetre. So, divide by 10, we then have 0.02/10= *0.002cm* not mm.

What are challenges of securing a crime scene

kotegsom [21]

At any crime scene, the two greatest challenges to the physical evidence are contamination and loss of continuity.

<h3>What is the meaning of physical evidence?</h3>

In evidence law, physical evidence (also called real evidence or material evidence) is any material object that plays some role in the matter that gave rise to the litigation, introduced as evidence in a judicial proceeding (such as a trial) to prove a fact in issue based on the object's physical characteristics.

The two types of evidence at crime scenes:

Biological evidence (e.g., blood, body fluids, hair and other tissues)

Latent print evidence (e.g., fingerprints, palm prints, footprints)

The biggest impediment to an investigation is the removal or loss of a piece of evidence from the scene of a crime.

Hence, at any crime scene, the two greatest challenges to the physical evidence are contamination and loss of continuity.
