Answer:

<h2>0.67 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{38}{57} =  \frac{2}{3}   \\  = 0.666666...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.67 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

A hand moves a block vertically upward. Its speed slows down as it moves up (it is decelerating). The work done by gravity on th
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

a. negative

b. zero

Explanation:

work is the change in the energy of a system due to external forces

work is done when a force moves a load through a distance in the direction of the force

The work done by a force on a  system is positive when the force  and the force displacement point  in the same direction and negative  when they point in opposite  directions

in the scenario we are considering in the question, the force (the hand) moves the block vertically upwards but the displacement of the block reduces (in the opposite direction) since it decelerates. as such the work done by gravity on the block is negative.

the work done on the block is zero if the system consists of the block and the earth because there is no gravitational force exerted on the system

Compare the light gathering power of a 1 meter diameter telescope to that of the human eye ,which has a diameter of roughly 2.5
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The telescope can gather light 1600 times more than the human eyes can!

Explanation:

The light gathering ability of an optical element is directly proportional to its area of opening.

So, in comparing the light gathering abilities for two objects, it is just the ratio of their area of opening.

Let the diameter of the telescope be D = 1 m

And the diameter of the human eyes be d = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

Light gathering ability of the telescope compared to the eyes = D² ÷ d²

= (D²/d²) = (1²/0.025²) = 1600 times.

The telescope can gather light 1600 times more than the human eyes can!

Hope this Helps!!!

A tank holds a 1.44-m thick layer of oil that floats on a 0.98-m thick layer of brine. Both liquids are clear and do not intermi
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Angle of ray makes with the vertical is 62.1 degree

Explanation:

As per the ray diagram we know that the angle of incidence on oil brine interface will be given as

tan\theta_i = \frac{0.7}{0.98}

\theta_i = 35.5^0

now by Snell'a law at that interface we have

\mu_1 sin\theta_i = \mu_2 sin \theta_r

now we will have

1.52  sin35.5 = 1.40 sin\theta_r

\theta_r = 39.12^0

now this is the angle of incidence for oil air interface

so now again by Snell's law we will have

\mu_2 sin\theta_i' = \mu_{air} sin\theta

1.40 sin39.12 = 1 sin\theta

\theta = 62.1^0
