Susan was traveling in an airplane. She looked out of a window in the airplane and saw clouds in the sky. Why could Susan see cl

ouds through the window of the airplane?
A.
Most of the light hitting the window was transmitted when it passed through the window.
B.
Most of the light hitting the window was reflected off of the window instead of passing through it.
C.
Most of the light hitting the window was refracted when it passed through the window.
D.
Most of the light hitting the window was absorbed by the window instead of passing through it.

What object currently has the most gravitational potential energy?<br><br>A, B, C, or D​
eduard

Answer:

A

Explanation:

this because

gravitational potential energy = mass x height x gravitational field strength

so let's assume mass is 2 kg and gravitational field strength is 10 N /kg

so when height is very low, take it as 3 m

gravitational potential energy= 2 x 3 x 10 = 60 j

but when height is 6m

gravitational potential energy = 2 x 6 x 10 = 120 j

so when the height is the greatest, the gravitational potential energy is the highest

so A is the heighest so it has the highest gravitational potential energy.

hope this helps

please mark it brainliest :D

An 85 kg man and his 35 kg daughter are sitting on opposite ends of a 3.00 m see-saw. The see-saw is anchored in the center. If
wolverine [178]

Answer:

0.54m

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

length of seesaw= 3m

mass of man m1= 85kg

weight = mg

W1= 85*10= 850N

mass of daughter m2= 35kg

W2= 35*10= 350N

distance from the center= (1.5-0.2)= 1.3m

Step two:

we know that the sum of clockwise moment equals the anticlockwise moment

let the distance the must sit to balance the system be x

taking moment about the center of the system

350*1.3=850*x

455=850x

divide both sides by  850

x=455/850

x=0.54

Hence the man must sit 0.54m from the right to balance the system

A 50.0-kg block is being pulled up a 16.0° slope by a force of 250 n that is parallel to the slope. the coefficient of kinetic
Drupady [299]
When dealing with multiple forces acting on a body, it is advisable to draw a free-body diagram like that shown in the picture. There are four forces acting on the box: weight (W) pointing straight down, normal force perpendicular to the slope denoted as Fn, force used to push the box upwards along the slope and the frictional force acting opposite to the direction of motion of the box denoted as Ff. Frictional force is equal to coefficient of kinetic friction (μk) multiplied with Fn.

∑Fy = Fn - mgcos30° = 0
           Fn = (50)(9.81)(cos 16) = 471.5 N

When in motion, the net force is equal to mass times acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:

Fnet = F - μk*Fn - mgsin30° = ma
          250 - (0.2)(471.5 N) - (50)(sin 16°) = (50)(a)
          a = 2.84 m/s²

The gravitational force between two objects will be greatest in which of the following situations?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational law states that, the force of attraction or repulsion between two masses is directly proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

So,

Let the masses be M1 and M2,

F ∝ M1 × M2

Let the distance apart be R

F ∝ 1 / R²

Combining the two equation

F ∝ M1•M2 / R²

G is the constant of proportional and it is called gravitational constant

F = G•M1•M2 / R²

So, to increase the gravitational force, the masses to the object must be increased and the distance apart must be reduced.

So, option c is correct

C. Both objects have large masses and are close together.

A flexible shaft consists of a 3 mm diameter steel wire in a flexible hollow tube which imposes a frictional torque of 0.04 N m
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

2.5m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the rotational effect of a force on a body.

The torque T for the maximum shear stress is given as 0.1 Nm

Frictional torque is the torque caused by a frictional force

The frictional torque F is given as 0.04 Nm/m

The maximum length of the shaft is thus given as

L = T / F

  = 0.1/0.04

L= 2.5 m
