AnnZ [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: When a ray of light approaches a smooth polished surface and the light ray bounces back, it is called the reflection of light. The incident light ray which lands upon the surface is said to be reflected off the surface. The ray that bounces back is called the reflected ray.<u> </u>

Thermometry substance is mercury or alcohol

2) Gas thermometer: This type is used to measure temperature as a result of changes in gas pressure or volume.

Thermometry substance is Gas.

3) Resistance thermometer: This type is used to measure temperature due to changes in electric resistance.

Thermometry substance is Resistance wire.

4) Thermocouple thermometer: This type is used to measure the temperature due to changes in electrical potential difference occurring between two metal junctions.

Thermometry substance is two wires that are dissimilar.

5) Bimetallic thermometer: This is a type of thermometer that measures temperature by converting temperature into mechanical displacement by making use of Bimetallic strip.

Thermometry substance is two metals that are dissimilar.

What effect does a tripling of the net force have upon the acceleration of the object?
dsp73
The formula of net Force is:F = mawhere m is the mass of the objecta is the acceleration of the object
thus, if we triple the net force applied to the object:
3F = maa = 3F / m
The acceleration is also tripled since the force is directly proportional to the acceleration.

You are driving to the grocery store at 20 m/s. You are 110m from an intersection when the traffic light turns red. Assume that
oksano4ka [1.4K]

As we know that reaction time will be

t = 0.50 s

so the distance moved by car in reaction time

d = vt

d = 20 \times 0.50

d = 10 m

now the distance remain after that from intersection point is given by

d = 110 - 10 = 100 m

So our distance from the intersection will be 100 m when we apply brakes

now this distance should be covered till the car will stop

so here we will have

v_f = 0

v_i = 20 m/s

now from kinematics equation we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0 - 20^2 = 2(a)100

a = \frac{-400}{200} = -2 m/s^2

so the acceleration required by brakes is -2 m/s/s

Now total time taken to stop the car after applying brakes will be given as

v_f - v_i = at

0 - 20 = -2 (t)

t = 10 s

total time to stop the car is given as

T = 10 s + 0.5 s = 10.5 s
