Answer:

9.773m/s2

Explanation:

Given,

h=8848m

The value of sea level is 9.08m/s2

So,

Let g′ be the acceleration due to the gravity on the Mount Everest.

g′=g(1−h2h)

=9.8(1−640000017696)

=9.8(1−0.00276)

9.8×0.99724

=9.773m/s2

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on the top of Mount Everest is =9.773m/s2

Hope it helped!!!

A diver is swimming underneath an oil slick with a thickness of 200 nm and an index of refraction of 1.50. A white light shines

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

thickness of oil t = 200 nm

index of refraction μ = 1.5

For transmitted light :---

path difference = 2μ t

For constructive interference

path difference = n λ , λ is wavelength of light

2μ t = n λ

λ = 2μ t / n

For longest λ , n = 1

λ = 2μ t

= 2 x 1.5 x 200 nm

= 600 nm

Wavelength in water

= 600 / refractive index of water

= 600 / 1.33

= 451.1 nm Ans

An amplifier has a 50 watt output and a 5 watt input. what is the gain in decibels for this amplifier, rounded to the nearest de

Marrrta [24]

Gain in decibels is given by;

Gain db = 10*log (Po/Pi), where Po = Power output, Pin = Power input

Substituting;

Gain in db = 10 * log (50/5) = 10 db
