Answer:

Explanation:

Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys. These are also known as constructive boundaries. ... Subduction zones occur where an oceanic plate meets a continental plate and is pushed underneath it. Subduction zones are marked by oceanic trenches.

A chair of weight 80.0 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F =

Kaylis [27]

The chair does not move along the vertical direction: this means that the net force on the vertical direction is zero.

There are three forces acting along the vertical direction:

- The weight, acting downward: $W=mg=80.0 N$

- The component of the force F perpendicular to the floor, acting downward: $F_y = F sin 43.0^{\circ}=(44.0 N)(sin 43.0^{\circ})=30.0 N$

- The normal force N, acting upwards.

Since the net force must be zero, we have:

$W+F_y-N=0$

From which we can find the value of N:

$N=W+F_y=80.0 N+30.0 N=110.0 N$

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to destructive interference.

The concept refers to an overlap of two or more waves of identical or similar frequency that, when interfering, creates a new pattern of waves of lower intensity

By definition destructive interference is given by

$2Mt = (n+\frac{1}{2})\lambda$

Where,

$\lambda= wavelength$

n=integer (1,2,3,4,5,6...etc)

t = thickness

M= Index of refrqaction

For minimum thickness to satisfy this condition n will be minimum there,

n=0

Therefore

$2Mt = (0+\frac{1}{2})\lambda$

Solving to find M,

$M = \frac{\lambda}{4t}$

$M = \frac{585nm}{4*106nm}$

$M = 1.38$

Therefore the correct answer is B. 1.38

A ball with a horizontal speed of 1.25 m/s rolls off a bench 1.00 m above the floor. part a how long will it take the ball to hi

elena55 [62]

Working formula:

y = v*t + 0.5*a*t^2

where:
y = vertical distance = -1 m
v = initial velocity = 1.25m/s
a = acceleration = 9.81 m/s^2
t = time

Required: t

Solution:

y = v*t + 0.5*a*t^2
1 = (1.25)*t + 0.5*9.81*t^2
0 = -1 + 1.25t + 4.905t^2

Applying completing the square, we get
t = 0.342 s, - 0.597s

Technically, we don't have time with negative value. Thus, the answer is t = 0.342 seconds
