600.0 mL of air is at 27.0 °C. What is the volume at 60.0 °C?

Which of the statements concerning light are true? The speed of light is the same no matter what material it is traveling throug

wel

Answer:

The statements that are true concerning light are the last three statements:

Its propagation direction is perpendicular to both the electric field and the magnetic field.

It moves at a constant speed through a vacuum.

The speed of light in matter is less than the speed of light in a vacuum.

Explanation:

Light is electromagnetic waves.

The properties of the electromagnetic waves were established by James Clerk Maxwell.

They included that they are the result of the oscillation of a magnetic field in phase with an electric field which are always is always perpendicular to each other.

Also, the electromagnetic waves propagate at right-angles to the direction of both the magnetic and the electric field, meaning that they are a type of transverse wave.

Thus, the second statement ("Its propagation direction is parallel to both the electric field and the magnetic field") is false, and the fourth statement ("Its propagation direction is perpendicular to both the electric field and the magnetic field") is true.

On the other hand, it is a postulate of the special theory of relativity that the speed of light is a constant (absolute value) in vacuum: nothing can travel faster than what light travels in vacuum. Thus, the fifth statement, "It moves at a constant speed through a vacuum" is true.

About the speed of light in matter, it is always less than the speed of light in vacuum. Thus, the first statement, "the speed of light is the same no matter what material it is traveling through", and the third statement "the speed of light in matter is greater than the speed of light in a vacuum" are false; while the last statement, "the speed of light in matter is less than the speed of light in a vacuum" is true.

The explanation on why the speed of light is less in a medium than in vacuum is related with the fact that at nanoscopic level the waves suffer polarization which means deviations from the straighi path, which makes that the net straight propagation is slower.

Two subway stops are separated by 1210 m. If a subway train accelerates at 1.30 m/s2 from rest through the first half of the dis

solong [7]

Answer:

Part 1) Time of travel equals 61 seconds

Part 2) Maximum speed equals 39.66 m/s.

Explanation:

The final speed of the train when it completes half of it's journey is given by third equation of kinematics as

$v^{2}=u^2+2as$

where

'v' is the final speed

'u' is initial speed

'a' is acceleration of the body

's' is the distance covered

Applying the given values we get

$v^2=0+2\times 1.30\times \frac{1210}{2}\\\\v^{2}=1573\\\\\therefore v=39.66m/s$

Now the time taken to attain the above velocity can be calculated by the first equation of kinematics as

$v=u+at\\\\v=0+1.30\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{39.66}{1.30}=30.51seconds$

Since the deceleration is same as acceleration hence the time to stop in the same distance shall be equal to the time taken to accelerate the first half of distance

Thus total time of journey equals $T=2\times 30.51\approx61seconds$

Part b)

the maximum speed is reached at the point when the train ends it's acceleration thus the maximum speed reached by the train equals $39.66m/s$

rodikova [14]

Answer:

$18

Explanation:

Each of the was qiven $18

All together =24

24 divide it by 4 (because there were 4 people there)

= 6 (6+6+6+6)

= 24

=6+12=18

.Hence each of them was given $18
