Answer:

 R_eq = 6 Ω

Explanation:

In a series circuit the current is constant throughout the circuit and the resistance is the sum of all the resistances in it.

         R_eq = ∑

in this case we have

         R_eq = R₁1 + 3 R₂

where R₁ is the resistance of the fan and R₂ the resistance of each light, we must clarify that we will assume that the resistance of the lights does not change with temperature

let's calculate

          R_eq = 3 + 3 1

           R_eq = 6 Ω

A laser beam enters a 12.0 cm thick glass window at an angle of 33.0° from the normal. The index of refraction of the glass is 1
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The time is 0.563 ns.

Explanation:

Given that,

Index of refraction of glass = 1.41

Distance = 12.0 cm

Angle = 33.0°

We need to calculate the refraction angle

Using Snell's law

n_{1}\sin\theta=n_{r}\sin\theta

put the value into the formula

1\times\sin33=1.41\sin\theta

\sin\theta=\dfrac{1\times\sin33}{1.41}

\theta=22.71^{\circ}

We need to calculate the velocity of beam in glass

Using formula of velocity

v=\dfrac{c}{n}

Put the value into the formula

v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.41}

v=2.13\times10^{8}\ m/s

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of distance

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{12.0\times10^{-2}}{2.13\times10^{8}}

t=5.63\times10^{-10}\ sec

t=0.563\times10^{-9}\ sec

t=0.563\ ns

Hence, The time is 0.563 ns.

Physical science help!
Scrat [10]

Answer:

Let's begin by explaining that the <u>electromagnetic spectrum</u> is the set of electromagnetic radiations distributed in their different frequencies or wavelengths. So, if we go from the smallest wavelengths known up to now (because according to physics the electromagnetic spectrum is infinite and continuous) to the longest, the electromagnetic spectrum covers the following radiations:  

Gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible light, infrared, radio waves and microwaves:

-Gamma rays: With a wavelength in the order of 10^{-12}m, is a type of ionizing radiation capable of penetrating matter quite deeply and is able to cause serious damage to the nucleus of the cells.

-X rays: With a wavelength between 1m and 10km. It is invisible to the human eye, capable of crossing opaque bodies and is also an ionizing radiation.

-Ultraviolet light (UV): Whose wavelength is approximately between 100 nm and 380 nm; is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye.  

-Visible light: This part of the spectrum is located between ultraviolet light and infrared light (400 nm - 800 nm). It should be noted, the fact the only part of the whole electromagnetic spectrum is visible to humans is because the receptors in our eyes are only sensitive to these wavelengths.

-Infrared: This type of radiation is not visible to the human eye, since its wavelengths are outside the visible spectrum (between 700 nm and 1 mm).  

These waves can be divided into:  

- Near infrared or long wave infrared: it is the least sensitive to color and is easily absorbed by water.  

- Medium or medium wave infrared: it is also insensitive to color and easily absorbed by water and many types of plastics and paints.  

- Far infrared or short wave infrared: it is more penetrating than the long wave and is good for heating metals, these waves also can pass through clear materials.  

This light has many uses, including heating lamps in physiotherapy and medical treatments, heat sensing devices, among others.

-Radio waves: This is a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 10 m to 10,000 m. This type of electromagnetic waves is very well reflected in the ionosphere, the layer of the atmosphere through which they travel directly or using repeaters. In addition, this radiation is important in telecommunications.

Consider massive gliders that slide friction-free along a horizontal air track. Glider A has a mass of 1 kg, a speed of 1 m/s, a
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

0.167m/s

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum which States that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of the bodies after collision. The bodies move with a common velocity after collision.

Given momentum = Maas × velocity.

Momentum of glider A = 1kg×1m/s

Momentum of glider = 1kgm/s

Momentum of glider B = 5kg × 0m/s

The initial velocity of glider B is zero since it is at rest.

Momentum of glider B = 0kgm/s

Momentum of the bodies after collision = (mA+mB)v where;

mA and mB are the masses of the gliders

v is their common velocity after collision.

Momentum = (1+5)v

Momentum after collision = 6v

According to the law of conservation of momentum;

1kgm/s + 0kgm/s = 6v

1 =6v

V =1/6m/s

Their speed after collision will be 0.167m/s
