Answer:

If the basket ball appears orange then it can be said that it reflects orange light

Explanation:

The color of the object reflected by an object is the color which is viewed by a viewer. Hence, if the basket ball reflects the orange color light , then the ball will appear orange in color to the viewer.

The light absorbed by the object has no role in deciding the color of the object visible to a viewer.

hence, if the basket ball appears orange then it can be said that it reflects orange light.

zmey [24]

Answer: C

Both Technicians A and B

Explanation:

Only a DOT-approved flasher unit should be used for turn signals. And a parallel (variable-load) flasher will function for turn signal usage, although it will not warn the driver if a bulb burns out.

A spherical capacitor contains a charge of 3.00 nC when connected to a potential difference of 230 V. If its plates are separate

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Part(a): the capacitance is 0.013 nF.

Part(b): the radius of the inner sphere is 3.1 cm.

Part(c): the electric field just outside the surface of inner sphere is $\bf{2.81 \times 10^{4}~n~C^{-1}}$ .

Explanation:

We know that if 'a' and 'b' are the inner and outer radii of the shell respectively, 'Q' is the total charge contains by the capacitor subjected to a potential difference of 'V' and ' $\epsilon_{0}$ ' be the permittivity of free space, then the capacitance (C) of the spherical shell can be written as

$C = \dfrac{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}}{(\dfrac{1}{a} - \dfrac{1}{b})}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(1)$

Part(a):

Given, charge contained by the capacitor Q = 3.00 nC and potential to which it is subjected to is V = 230V.

So the capacitance (C) of the shell is

$C &=& \dfrac{Q}{V} = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-90}~C}{230~V} = 1.3 \times 10^{-11}~F = 0.013~nF$

Part(b):

Given the inner radius of the outer shell b = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m. Therefore, from equation (1), rearranging the terms,

$&& \dfrac{1}{a} = \dfrac{1}{b} + \dfrac{1}{C/4 \pi \epsilon_{0}} = \dfrac{1}{0.043} + \dfrac{1}{1.3 \times 10^{-11} \times 9 \times 10^{9}} = 31.79\\&or,& a = \dfrac{1}{31.79}~m = 0.031~m = 3.1~cm$

Part(c):

If we apply Gauss' law of electrostatics, then

$&& E~4 \pi a^{2} = \dfrac{Q}{\epsilon_{0}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{Q}{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}a^{2}}\\&or,& E = \dfrac{3 \times 10^{-9} \times 9 \times 10^{9}}{0.031^{2}}~N~C^{-1}\\&or,& E = 2.81 \times 10^{4}~N~C^{-1}$

The acceleration due to gravity is higher on juniper Than on earth. The mass and weight of rock on juniper compared to that on e

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

2.5 times higher then that on the Earth

Explanation:

Gravity is higher on Jupiter then on Earth because Jupiter is much bigger, because of it's mass compared to Earth the gravity on Jupiter is about 2.4 - 2.5 times higher then Earths surface gravity which means a rock on Jupiter would be around "2.4 - 2.5 times as heavier then it would be on Earth."

Hope this helps.

If a force of 3000 N is applied to a large rock, but the rock does not move, how much work is done on the rock?

kkurt [141]

Answer:

No work was done.

W = 0

Explanation:

Work is said to be done whenever a force of one newton moves a body of one kilogram through a distance of one meter. Meaning the applied force has to move the body from a point of rest through certain distance.

Work = force × distance

So, in the case of this question, we only have the force been applied, but no distance was covered. Hence, no work was done.

W = 3000× 0 meter

W = 0
