7 0

Explanation:

Optics is a branch of physics that is the study of light and vision. ... The branch of physics dealing with the nature and properties of electromagnetic energy in the light spectrum and the phenomena of vision. In the broadest sense, optics deals with infrared light, visible light, and ultraviolet light.

You attach a meter stick to an oak tree, such that the top of the meter stick is 1.87 meters above the ground. Later, an acorn f
Verdich [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. We will calculate the initial velocity of the object, and from it, we will calculate the final position. With the considerations made in the statement we will obtain the total height. Initial velocity of the acorn,

u = 0m/s

Also, it is given that the acorn takes 0.201s to pass the length of the meter stick.

s = ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2

Replacing,

1 = u(0.141)+ \frac{1}{2} (9.8)(0.141)^2

u =6.4013m/s

The height of the acorn above the meter stick can be calculated as,

v^2 = u^2 +2gh

h = \frac{v^2-u^2}{2g}

h = \frac{6.4013^2-0^2}{2(9.8)}

h = 2.0906m

Also the top of the meter stick is 1.87m above the ground hence the height of the acorn above the ground is

h = 2.0906+1.87

h = 3.9606m

A scientist compares two samples of white powder. One powder was present at the beginning of an experiment. The other powder was
Jet001 [13]
Density of powder 1 = 0.5 g / 45 cm^3 = 1/90 g/cm^3
Density of powder 2 = 1.3 g / 65 cm^3 = 1/50 g/cm^3

Therefore the densities of the two powders are different, hence chemical reaction has occurred.

(note: none of the other choices make sense.  In fact, a different density does not necessarily indicate a chemical change, see paragraph below).

Density of powders are not definitive unless they are each of the same size and texture.  For example, granular sugar, rock sugar, and icing sugar all have different densities.  I would conclude that this experiment does not lend to a reliable answer.

To test the performance of its tires, a car
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

0.45

Explanation:

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

There are friction forces in two directions: centripetal and tangential.  The centripetal acceleration is:

ac = v² / r

ac = (31 m/s)² / 333 m

ac = 2.89 m/s²

The total acceleration is:

a = √(ac² + at²)

a = √((2.89 m/s²)² + (3.32 m/s²)²)

a = 4.40 m/s²

Sum of forces:

∑F = ma

Nμ = ma

mgμ = ma

μ = a / g

μ = 4.40 m/s² / 9.8 m/s²

μ = 0.45
