The stoplights on a street are designed to keep traffic moving at 26 mi/h. the average length of a street block between traffic ligh
bonufazy [111]

We use the formula,

v = \frac{d}{t}.

Here, v is velocity and its value given 26 mi/h ( in m/s,  \frac{26 \times 1.609 \times 10^{3} m}{60 \times 60 s} =11.62 \ m/s ) and d is distance and its value is given 80 m.

Substituting these values in above formula we get,

t = \frac{80 m}{11.62m/s } = 6.88 \ s

Thus, the time delay between green lights on successive blocks to keep the traffic moving continuously is 6.88 s

A 1.50 cm high diamond ring is placed 20.0 cm from a concave mirror with radius of curvature 30.00 cm. The magnification is ____
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Magnification, m = -0.42

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of diamond ring, h = 1.5 cm

Object distance, u = -20 cm

Radius of curvature of concave mirror, R = 30 cm

Focal length of mirror, f = R/2 = -15 cm (focal length is negative for concave mirror)

Using mirror's formula :

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}, f = focal length of the mirror

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-15}+\dfrac{1}{-20}

v = -8.57 cm

The magnification of a mirror is given by,

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-(-8.57)}{-20}

m = -0.42

So, the magnification of the concave mirror is 0.42. Thew negative sign shows that the image is inverted.

What is the difference between a bar magnet and an electromagnet? (check all that are
lukranit [14]

Answer:

D and A

Explanation:

Hint The basic difference between them is that a bar magnet is a permanent magnet whereas an electromagnet is a temporary magnet. An electromagnet is formed when an electric current is passed through wires wound around soft metalcore. An electromagnet loses its magnetism once the current flow is stopped.

Which kinds of objects emit visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum?
Triss [41]

Answer : Relatively hot objects

Explanation : We know that, the temperature of the objects is inversely proportional to their wavelengths. The objects emitting radiation in the visible region have short wavelength and hence are relatively hotter.

We know the range of wavelength of the visible spectrum is from 400 nm to 780 nm.
