Answer:

Yes,in fact visible 'light' is a form of radiation, which can be defined as an energy that travels in the form of electromagnetic waves. It can also be described as a flow of particle-like 'wave-packets', called photons, that travel constantly at the speed of light (about 300 000 kilometres per second).

A toy plane is flying in a horizontal circle by being attached to a 0.75 meter string. The plane has a mass of 101.7 grams and m
nadezda [96]

Answer:

F = 2,894 N

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law

      F = m a

The acceleration is centripetal

     a = v² / r

Angular and linear variables are related.

     v = w r

Let's replace

     F = m w² r

The radius r and the length of the rope is related

    cos is = r / L

    r = L cos tea

Let's replace

    F = m w² L cos θ

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

     m = 101.7 g (1 kg / 1000g) = 0.1017 kg

      θ = 5 rev (2π rad / rev) = 31,416 rad

     w =  θ / t

     w = 31.416 / 5.1

     w = 6.16 rad / s

     F = 0.1017 6.16² 0.75 cos  θ

     F = 2,894 cos  θ

The maximum value of F is for  θ equal to zero

     F = 2,894 N

"A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water. What is the buoyant force on the block due to the water? The density of
Alja [10]

Answer:

buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N

Explanation:

We know that

buoyant force(F_B) on a block= weight of the block in air (actual weight) - weight of block in water.

Given:

A block of metal weighs 40 N in air and 30 N in water.

F_B =  40-30= 10 N

therefore,  buoyant force on the block due to the water= 10 N
