Answer:

Explanation: the pigment atoms in the skin absorb photons of all energies except those that correspond to red wavelengths of light, which they reflect back to your eye.

B is more likely the answer

Answer:

B. Tomatos reflect red light

Explanation:

The only reason colors exist is because the objects with color reflect all other light except for what they are portrayed as. White reflects all colors, and black absorbs all colors.

what is the mass of vertical column of air that exerts pressure of 1 atm over a10m by 10m square surface

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

$m=1.01\times 10^6\ kg$

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure, P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

Area of the square surface, A = 10² = 100 m²

We need to find the mass of vertical column of air. We know that, pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. So,

$P=\dfrac{mg}{A}\\\\m=\dfrac{PA}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{101325\times 10^2}{10}\\\\m=1.01\times 10^6\ kg$

So, the required mass of the vertical column of air is $1.01\times 10^6\ kg$ .

Question 5 of 10

jonny [76]

Answer:

A. The particle model, because only high-energy frequencies of light can remove electrons .

Explanation:

Each photon of blue light has higher energy than each photon of red light has . So when each photon strikes each electron , it gets ejected . But the photon of red light has not sufficient energy to eject electron . Once the photon of red light strikes the electron , the energy is wasted off . Energy of photon can not be accumulated . Thus photon behaves like particle .

(10%) Problem 5: The Earth spins on its axis and also orbits around the Sun. For this problem use the following constants. Mass

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Incomplete Question.The Complete question is

The Earth spins on its axis and also orbits around the Sun. For this problem use the following constants. Mass of the Earth: 5.97 × 10^24 kg (assume a uniform mass distribution) Radius of the Earth: 6371 km Distance of Earth from Sun: 149,600,000 km

(i)Calculate the rotational kinetic energy of the Earth due to rotation about its axis, in joules.

(ii)What is the rotational kinetic energy of the Earth due to its orbit around the Sun, in joules?

Answer:

(i) KE= 2.56e29 J

(ii) KE= 2.65e33 J

Explanation:

i) Treating the Earth as a solid sphere, its moment of inertia about its axis is

I = (2/5)mr² = (2/5) * 5.97e24kg * (6.371e6m)²

I = 9.69e37 kg·m²

About its axis,

ω = 2π rads/day * 1day/24h * 1h/3600s

ω= 7.27e-5 rad/s,

so its rotational kinetic energy

KE = ½Iω² = ½ * 9.69e37kg·m² * (7.27e-5rad/s)²

KE= 2.56e29 J

(ii) About the sun,

I = mR²

I= 5.97e24kg * (1.496e11m)²

I= 1.336e47 kg·m²

and the angular velocity

ω = 2π rad/yr * 1yr/365.25day * 1day/24h * 1h/3600s

ω= 1.99e-7 rad/s

KE = ½ * 1.336e47kg·m² * (1.99e-7rad/s)²

KE= 2.65e33 J

A steel spur pinion has a module of 2 mm, 17 teeth cut on the 20° full-depth system, and a face width of 20 mm. At a speed of 16

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The value of bending stress on the pinion 35.38 M pa

Explanation:

Given data

m = 2 mm

Pressure angle $\phi$ = 20°

No. of teeth T = 17

Face width (b) = 20 mm

Speed N = 1650 rpm

Power = 1200 W

Diameter of the pinion gear

D = m T

D = 2 × 17

D = 34 mm

Velocity of the pinion gear

$V =\pi D( \frac{N}{60} )$

$V = 3.14 (0.034) \frac{(1650)}{60}$

$V = 2.93 \frac{m}{s}$

Form factor for the pinion gear is

Y = 0.303

Now

$K_{v} = \frac{6.1 +0.303}{6.1} = 1.049$

Force on gear tooth

$F = \frac{P}{V}$

$F = \frac{1200}{2.93}$

F = 408.73 N

Now the bending stress is given by the formula

$\sigma = \frac{K_{v} F}{m b y}$

$\sigma = \frac{(1.049)(408.73)}{(0.002)(0.02)(0.303)}$

$\sigma$ = 35.38 M pa

This is the value of bending stress on the pinion
