Gravity is the force that pulls you down.
(This is kind of a duh! question ... How do we know
which way is "down" ?  We feel gravity, and we call
that the "down" direction.)

Magnetic force holds things to fridge doors.

Contact forces need to touch something in order to
exert their force.
Example:  Gravity is NOT a contact force.

I don't know about "rubbing things away".
This might be a description of friction, but if so,
it's not a good one.

Buoyant force is what keeps floating things floating.

Air resistance slows things down when they move in air.

Which of the following quantities can be measured in the same units as Work?
arlik [135]

Answer:

Kinetic energy and potential energy.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object and to the square of its velocity: K.E. = 1/2 m v^2. If the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared. Kinetic energy is usually measured in units of Joules (J); one Joule is equal to 1 kg m^2 / s^2.

The formula for potential energy depends on the force acting on the two objects. For the gravitational force, the formula is P.E. = mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2 at the surface of the earth) and h is the height in meters. Notice that gravitational potential energy has the same units as kinetic energy, kg m^2/s^2. In fact, all energy has the same units, kg m^2/s^2, and is measured using the unit Joule (J).

Work is also measured with the unit Joule (J).

A non-reflective coating that has a thickness of 198 nm (n = 1.45) is deposited on top of a substrate of glass (n = 1.50). What
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The  wavelength is \lambda_ 1 =  574.2 nm

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

      The  thickness is t =  198 nm  =  198 *10^{-9 }\ m

      The refractive  index of the non-reflective coating is  n_m  =  1.45  

       The  refractive  index of glass is n_g  = 1.50

       

Generally the condition for  destructive  interference is mathematically represented as

            2 *  n_m *  t  *  cos (\theta) =  n  *  \lambda

Where \thata \theta is the angle of refraction which is  0° when the light is strongly transmitted

    and  n is the order maximum interference

        so  

             \lambda = \frac{2 *  n *  t  *  cos (\theta )}{n}

at the point n =  1  

           \lambda _1 = \frac{2 *  1.45  *  198*10^{-9}  *  cos (0 )}{1}

           \lambda_1  = 574.2 *10^{-9}

          \lambda_1  = 574.2 nm

at  n =2  

         \lambda _2  =  \frac{\lambda _1 }{2}

         \lambda _2  =  \frac{574.2*10^{-9} }{2}

         \lambda _2  =  2.87 1 *10^{-9} \ m

         \lambda _2  =  287. 1  nm

Now we know that the wavelength range of visible light is  between

           390 \ nm \to  700 \ nm

   So the wavelength of visible light that is been transmitted is  

          \lambda_ 1 =  574.2 nm

A 4kg watermelon is dropped from a height of 45m. What is the velocity of the watermelon just before it hits the ground?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

v=30 m/s

Explanation:

h - height

g - acceleration due to gravity=10

t - time

v- velocity

h =  \frac{1}{2}  \times g \times t {}^{2}

45 = 5t²

t² = 9

t=3 seconds

v=g×t

v=10×3

v=30 m/s
