Thomas Savery

While the Spaniard first patented a steam-operated machine for use in mining, an Englishman is usually credited with inventing the first steam engine. In 1698, Thomas Savery, an engineer and inventor, patented a machine that could effectively draw water from flooded mines using steam pressure.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A. is wrong as nebulae are found inside galaxies and inside the universe, not inside stars.

B. is wrong because there are trillions of galaxies in the universe, not the latter.

D. The solar system consists of the eight planets, the Sun, comets, meteors, dwarf planets, and is inside the Milky Way galaxy and thus cannot have galaxies inside it.

a heavy jar sits on top of a 3.4 m shelf with a gravitational potential energy of 180 j. What is the mass of the jar?

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

5.2941176471 kg or 5294.1 grams

Explanation:

g.p.e= mgh

g.p.e/gh=m

180j/10×3.4= m

180/34= m

5.2941 kg= m

A ray of light incident in water strikes the surface separating water from air making an angle of 10 ° with the normal to the su

labwork [276]

Answer:

$\theta _2 = 13^o$

$\theta _1 =32.94^o$

$\theta_c = 53.05^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The angle of incidence is $\theta_1 = 10^o$

The refractive index of water is $n_1 = 1.3$

Generally Snell's law is mathematically represented as

$n_1 sin(\theta_1) = n_2 sin(\theta_ 2)$

Here $n_2$ is the refractive index of air with value $n_2 = 1$

$\theta_2$ is the angle of refraction

$\theta _2 = sin^{-1}[\frac{n_1 * sin(\theta _1)}{n_2} ]$

=> $\theta _2 = sin^{-1}[\frac{1.3 * sin(10)}{1} ]$

=> $\theta _2 = 13^o$

Given that the angle should not be greater than $\theta _2 =45^o$ then the angle of incidence will be

$\theta _1 = sin^{-1}[\frac{n_2 * sin(\theta _2)}{n_1} ]$

=> $\theta _1 = sin^{-1}[\frac{1 * sin(45)}{1.3} ]$

=> $\theta _1 =32.94^o$

Generally for critical angle is mathematically represented as

$\theta_c = sin^{-1}[\frac{n_2}{n_1} ]$

=> $\theta_c = sin^{-1}[\frac{1}{1.3} ]$

=> $\theta_c = 53.05^o$

Is an object moving in uniform circular motion accelerating?

dexar [7]

Yes.

-- 'Acceleration' does NOT mean 'speeding up'.
It means ANY change in the speed OR direction of motion ...
speeding up, slowing down, or turning.

-- If an object is NOT moving in straight line at constant speed,
then its motion is accelerated.

-- In circular motion, or even just going around a curve,
the object is accelerating, because its direction is constantly
changing, even if its speed is constant.

7. CALCULATE: How much work is done in each of

kifflom [539]

<h3>Answer</h3>

a. 8J

b. 90J

<h3>Notes formula</h3>

W = F × s

W = Work done (J)

F = Force (N)

s = distance (m)

<h3>Known that </h3>

a. F = 4N

s = 2m

b. F = 30N

s = 3m

<h3>Question</h3>

a. W = ..?

b. W = ..?

a. W = F × s

= 4N × 2m = 8J

b. W = F × s

= 30N × 3m = 90J
