Answer:

Reflection

Explanation:

The wave phenomenon that allows the DVD player to work is REFLECTION.

Reflection is defined as the repropagation of incident light striking a plane surface.

The light ray striking the surface is incident ray while the repropagated light ray is the reflected ray. The DVD was able to play because the laser light that hits the surface of the disk was able to reflect back and returns to the detector. The detector senses the light and cause the DVD to play. If the laser light didn't reflect, assuming it was absorbed by the surface of the disk, the detector wouldn't have detected the light and the DVD wouldn't have played.

Una barra de plata de 335.2 g con una temperatura de 100 ºC se introduce un calorímetro de aluminio de 60 g de masa que contiene
sdas [7]

Respuesta:

0,0560 cal / gºC.

Explicación:

Cantidad de calor; (Q)

Q = mcΔt; Δt = t2 - t1

m = masa, c = capacidad calorífica específica; Δt = cambio de temperatura

c de agua = 1 cal / gºC

c de aluminio = 0,22 cal / gºC

QTotal = Q de agua + Q de aluminio

Q de agua = 450 * 1 * (26 - 23) = 1350 cal

Q de aluminio = 60 * 0.22 * (26 - 23) = 39.6 cal

QTotal = 1350 + 39,6 = 1389,6 cal

Calor perdido = calor ganado

QTotal = calor perdido

- 1389,6 = 335,2 * c * (26 - 100)

-1389,6 = −24804,8 * c

c = 1389,6 / 24804,8

c = 0,056021 cal / gºC.

Capacidad calorífica específica de la plata = 0,0560 cal / gºC.

A child is sliding down a slide at the playgound. is mechanicalenergy conserved
Flauer [41]

No. Mechanical energy is not conserved.  There's quite a bit of friction on the slide.  So some of the potential energy is lost to heat on the way down, and the child arrives at the bottom with hot pants and less kinetic energy than you might expect.

Weight is used most often for measuring____________________ whereas volume is used most often for measuring_____________________
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Weight is used most often for measuring solid whereas volume is used most often for measuring liquid.

Explanation:

Weight is used most often for measuring solid, because solids have definite shape.  Weight is usually expressed in Newton (N) because it is a function of mass and gravity. ( weight = mass x gravity).

Whereas  volume is used most often for measuring liquid, usually expressed in cubic meter (m³) because liquids have no definite shape, rather they occupy the volume of their container.

An object is thrown upwards with the speed of 40.0 km/hr in 5 second, calculate the distance in millimeters (mm).
sertanlavr [38]
V=(40km/hr)(hr/3600s)(1000000mm/km)
v=11111.1mm/s

v=d/t
d=vt
d=(11111.1mm/s)(5s)
d=55555mm
d=5.56x10^4mm
