Does light need a medium to transfer energy

horrorfan [7]2 years ago

Electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves in that they do not require a medium to propagate. This means that electromagnetic waves can travel not only through air and solid materials, but also through the vacuum of space. ... This proved that radio waves were a form of light!

Why does a balloon stick to a sweater after it has been rubbed against it?
Nataly [62]
Hello,

The balloon sticks to a sweater after it has been rubbed against it because once you rub a balloon against the sweater, the balloon steals electrons from the sweater, which leaves the sweater positively charged and the balloon negatively charged.

Why does the weather change during an eclipse? help me
Otrada [13]

Answer:

here`s your answer

Winds often slow down during an eclipse as the atmosphere temporarily settles. Heating causes the atmosphere to mix and bubble, just like a pot of water on the stove. As it warms, the water level in the pot rises because warm objects, including water, expand. In the case of the atmosphere, it also expands when heated.

A sphere of mass m and radius r is released from rest at the top of a curved track of height H. The sphere travels down the curv
iren2701 [21]

Explanation:

<em>(a) On the dots below, which represent the sphere, draw and label the forces (not components) that are exerted on the sphere at point A and at point B, respectively.  Each force must be represented by a distinct arrow starting on and pointing away from the dot.</em>

At point A, there are three forces acting on the sphere: weight force mg pulling down, normal force N pushing left, and static friction force Fs pushing down.

At point B, there are three forces acting on the sphere: weight force mg pulling down, normal force N pushing down, and static friction force Fs pushing right.

<em>(b) i. Derive an expression for the speed of the sphere at point A.</em>

Energy is conserved:

PE = PE + KE + RE

mgH = mgR + ½mv² + ½Iω²

mgH = mgR + ½mv² + ½(⅖mr²)(v/r)²

mgH = mgR + ½mv² + ⅕mv²

gH = gR + ⁷/₁₀ v²

v² = 10g(H−R)/7

v = √(10g(H−R)/7)

<em>ii. Derive an expression for the normal force the track exerts on the sphere at point A.</em>

Sum of forces in the radial (-x) direction:

∑F = ma

N = mv²/R

N = m (10g(H−R)/7) / R

N = 10mg(H−R)/(7R)

<em>(c) Calculate the ratio of the rotational kinetic energy to the translational kinetic energy of the sphere at point A.</em>

RE / KE

= (½Iω²) / (½mv²)

= ½(⅖mr²)(v/r)² / (½mv²)

= (⅕mv²) / (½mv²)

= ⅕ / ½

= ⅖

<em>(d) The minimum release height necessary for the sphere to travel around the loop and not lose contact with the loop at point B is Hmin.  The sphere is replaced with a hoop of the same mass and radius.  Will the value of Hmin increase, decrease, or stay the same?  Justify your answer.</em>

When the sphere or hoop just begins to lose contact with the loop at point B, the normal force is 0.  Sum of forces in the radial (-y) direction:

∑F = ma

mg = mv²/R

gR = v²

Applying conservation of energy:

PE = PE + KE + RE

mgH = mg(2R) + ½mv² + ½Iω²

mgH = 2mgR + ½mv² + ½(kmr²)(v/r)²

mgH = 2mgR + ½mv² + ½kmv²

gH = 2gR + ½v² + ½kv²

gH = 2gR + ½v² (1 + k)

Substituting for v²:

gH = 2gR + ½(gR) (1 + k)

H = 2R + ½R (1 + k)

H = ½R (4 + 1 + k)

H = ½R (5 + k)

For a sphere, k = 2/5.  For a hoop, k = 1.  As k increases, H increases.

<em>(e) The sphere is again released from a known height H and eventually leaves the track at point C, which is a height R above the bottom of the loop, as shown in the figure above.  The track makes an angle of θ above the horizontal at point C.  Express your answer in part (e) in terms of m, r, H, R, θ, and physical constants, as appropriate.  Calculate the maximum height above the bottom of the loop that the sphere will reach.</em>

C is at the same height as A, so we can use our answer from part (b) to write an equation for the initial velocity at C.

v₀ = √(10g(H−R)/7)

The vertical component of this initial velocity is v₀ sin θ.  At the maximum height, the vertical velocity is 0.  During this time, the sphere is in free fall.  The maximum height reached is therefore:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

0² = (√(10g(H−R)/7) sin θ)² + 2(-g)(h − R)

0 = 10g(H−R)/7 sin²θ − 2g(h − R)

2g(h − R) = 10g(H−R)/7 sin²θ

h − R = 5(H−R)/7 sin²θ

h = R + ⁵/₇(H−R)sin²θ

What is the density of an object that has a mass of 10 g and a volume
Korolek [52]

2g/mL

Explanation:

Given parameters :

Mass = 10g

Volume = 5mL

Unknown:

Density of the object  = ?

Solution:

Density is defined as the mass per unit volume of a body.

  Density = \frac{mass}{Volume}

Now, input the values in the equation:

   Density = \frac{10}{5} = 2g/mL
