Conduction is what you feel if you rub your shoes in the carpet and touch something metal. The heat is transferred from the metal to your shoes. Another example is if inside a room and you touch a glass window that is facing the sun for quite a time.

What is Light ?<br> What are 7 spectrums of Light ?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Light or visible light is electromagnetic radiation within the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is perceived by the human eye. Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres, between the infrared and the ultraviolet.

Here are the 7 from shortest to longest wavelength.

Violet - shortest wavelength, around 400-420 nanometers with highest frequency.  

Indigo - 420 - 440 nm.

Blue - 440 - 490 nm.

Green - 490 - 570 nm.

Yellow - 570 - 585 nm.

Orange - 585 - 620 nm.

Red - longest wavelength, at around 620 - 780 nanometers with lowest frequency.

Which of the following is true about light waves and sound waves? A. Sound waves can move at different speeds, but light waves a
vivado [14]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Sound waves speed up noticeably when moving through a solid or liquid, because all it is is just particles colliding; and particles are way closer together with those states of matter.

The speed of light can change when moving through different substances, but this is dependent on complicated factors such as frequency, polarization, intensity, et. cetera

The important part is that it does change speed, so your answer is C.

Hope this helps!

Select the statements that correctly interpret the data in this heating curve.
tekilochka [14]

The consistent temperature indicated by section 2 represents the flow of energy lost as the water freezes.

Section 2 indicates that energy is being utilized to bring all molecules to the melting point.

Section 4 indicates that the temperature is stable until all molecules reach the boiling point.

The increasing temperature in section 5 indicates that molecular motion is increasing.

Explanation:

The figure is missing: find it in attachment.

The graph represents the temperature of a block of ice as heat is continuously supplied to it.

At the beginning (section 1), the temperature increases: in this phase, the heat supplied to the ice is used to increase the kinetic energy of vibration of the molecules of ice.

When the ice reach point A (melting point), the ice starts to melt. In this phase (section 2), the temperature of the substance remains constant, because all the heat supplied is used to break the bonds between the molecules, converting the ice into liquid water.

At point B, the ice has completely melted, and therefore we now have liquid water.

In sector 3 (between B and C), the temperature of the water increases again as we supply more and more heat: this heat, in fact, is used to increase the kinetic energy of the molecules, which move faster and faster.

Then, the water reaches the boiling point (point C): after that, the water starts to boil, (sector 4) and the heat supplied is entirely used to remove the intermolecular forces between the molecules of water; as a result, the temperature remains constant during the process.

At poind D, the water has completely boiled, and converted into gas state (steam).

After that, the temperature of the steam starts to increase again (sector 5) as more and more heat is supplied, because it is used to increase the kinetic energy of the molecules.

Therefore, the correct statements are:

The consistent temperature indicated by section 2 represents the flow of energy lost as the water freezes.

Section 2 indicates that energy is being utilized to bring all molecules to the melting point.

Section 4 indicates that the temperature is stable until all molecules reach the boiling point.

The increasing temperature in section 5 indicates that molecular motion is increasing.

A birdcage with mass 22.5kg at rest on a living room floor is acted on by a net horizontal force of
patriot [66]

m = mass of the birdcage = 22.5 kg

F = net force acting on birdcage to move it = 140 N

a = acceleration produced due to the force applied

a)

Using newton's second law

a = F/m

inserting the values

a = 140/22.5

a = 6.22 m/s²


b)

t = time of travel of crate = 10.5 s

v₀ = initial velocity of the crate = 0 m/s

X = displacement of the crate

displacement of the crate is given as

X = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

X = 0 (10.5) + (0.5) (6.22) (10.5)²

X = 342.88 m

aliaa is skating down a ramp. the wheels on her skateboard have diameters of 60 \text{ mm}60 mm60, start text, space, m, m, end
GarryVolchara [31]

The total distance traveled by Aliaa using her skateboard for 20 revolution of the wheels is equal to 3770 millimeters.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Diameter of skateboard = 60 mm.

Number of revolution = 20 revolutions.

Radius = diameter/2 = 60/2 = 30 mm.

<h3>What is distance?</h3>

Distance can be defined as the amount of ground covered (traveled) by a physical object over a specific period of time and speed, regardless of its direction, starting point or ending point.

For one revolution of the wheels, the distance traveled by Aliaa using her skateboard is given by:

Distance = 2πr

Distance = 2 × 3.142 × 30

Distance = 188.5 mm.

Therefore, the total distance traveled by Aliaa using her skateboard for 20 revolution of the wheels is given by:

Distance = 188.5 × 20

Distance = 3770 millimeters.
