Answer:

Dark colors absorb more radiated heat from the sunlight while lighter colors reflect it. That's why wearing a black shirt on a sunny day makes you feel so much hotter than when you're wearing a white shirt!

Answer:

black

Explanation:

Light energy can be converted into heat energy. A black object absorbs all wavelengths of light and converts them into heat, so the object gets warm

A spring hangs from the ceiling with an unstretched length of x 0 = 0.69 m x0=0.69 m . A m 1 = 7.5 kg m1=7.5 kg block is hung fr

sergejj [24]

Answer:

x2=0.732m

Explanation:

We can calculate the spring constant using the equilibrium equation of the block m1. Since the spring is in equilibrium, we can say that the acceleration of the block is equal to zero. So, its equilibrium equation is:

$m_1g-k\Delta x_1=0\\\\\implies k=\frac{m_1g}{\Delta x_1}\\\\k=\frac{(7.5kg)(9.8m/s^{2})}{0.84m-0.69m}=490N/m$

Then using the equilibrium equation of the block m2, we have:

$m_2g-k\Delta x_2=0\\\\\\implies x_2=x_0+\frac{m_2g}{k} \\x_2=0.69m+\frac{(2.1kg)(9.8m/s^{2})}{490N/m}= 0.732m$

In words, the lenght x2 of the spring when the m2 block is hung from it, is 0.732m.

Please help asap How can carbon monoxide be properly disposed? if you are right you will get brainliest

Elis [28]

The best way to treat CO poisoning is to breathe in pure oxygen. This treatment increases oxygen levels in the blood and helps to remove CO from the blood. Your doctor will place an oxygen mask over your nose and mouth and ask you to inhale.

Is that what you mean? Treat the poisoning? It’s a gas, so you can dispose of the gas. Unless you mean dispose of the detector?

A 2.0-kg projectile is fired with initial velocity components v0x = 30 m/s and v0y = 40 m/s from a point on the Earth's surface.

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Kinetic energy of the projectile at the vertex of the trajectory: $900\; {\rm J}$ .

Work done when firing this projectile: $2500\; {\rm J}$ .

Explanation:

Since the drag on this projectile is negligible, the horizontal velocity $v_{x}$ of this projectile would stay the same (at $30\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ ) throughout the flight.

The vertical velocity $v_{y}$ of this projectile would be $0\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}$ at the vertex (highest point) of its trajectory. (Otherwise, if $v_{y} > 0$ , this projectile would continue moving up and reach an even higher point. If $v_{y} < 0$ , the projectile would be moving downwards, meaning that its previous location was higher than the current one.)

Overall, the velocity of this projectile would be $v = 30\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\!$ when it is at the top of the trajectory. The kinetic energy $\text{KE}$ of this projectile (mass $m = 2.0\; {\rm kg}$ ) at the vertex of its trajectory would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{KE} &= \frac{1}{2}\, m\, v^{2} \\ &= \frac{1}{2} \times 2.0\; {\rm kg} \times (30\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})^{2} \\ &= 900\; {\rm J} \end{aligned}$ .

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the initial speed of this projectile:

$\begin{aligned}v &= \sqrt{(v_{x})^{2} + (v_{y})^{2}} \\ &= \left(\sqrt{900 + 1600}\right)\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} \\ &= 50\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, the initial kinetic energy $\text{KE}$ of this projectile would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{KE} &= \frac{1}{2}\, m\, v^{2} \\ &= \frac{1}{2} \times 2.0\; {\rm kg} \times (50\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})^{2} \\ &=2500\; {\rm J} \end{aligned}$ .

All that energy was from the work done in launching this projectile. Hence, the (useful) work done in launching this projectile would be $2500\; {\rm J}$ .
