Suppose that, while lying on a beach near the equator watching the Sun set over a calm ocean, you start a stopwatch just as the

top of the Sun disappears. You then stand, elevating your eyes by a height H = 1.70 m, and stop the watch when the top of the Sun again disappears. If the elapsed time is t = 11.1 s, what is the radius r of Earth?

A sealed container holding 0.0255 L of an ideal gas at 0.981 atm and 65 ∘ C is placed into a refrigerator and cooled to 41 ∘ C w
user100 [1]

Answer:

0.911 atm

Explanation:

In this problem, there is no change in volume of the gas, since the container is sealed.

Therefore, we can apply Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:

"For a fixed mass of an ideal gas kept at constant volume, the pressure of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature"

Mathematically:

p\propto T

where

p is the gas pressure

T is the absolute temperature

For a gas undergoing a transformation, the law can be rewritten as:

\frac{p_1}{T_1}=\frac{p_2}{T_2}

where in this problem:

p_1=0.981 atm is the initial pressure of the gas

T_1=65^{\circ}+273=338 K is the initial absolute temperature of the gas

T_2=41^{\circ}+273=314 K is the final temperature of the gas

Solving for p2, we find the final pressure of the gas:

p_2=\frac{p_1 T_2}{T_1}=\frac{(0.981)(314)}{338}=0.911 atm

The main reason that most professional research telescopes are reflectors is that
GuDViN [60]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Large mirrors are easier to build than large lenses.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Reflector telescopes have a number of advantages as compared to refracting telescopes and other types of telescopes. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Reflector telescopes do not suffer from chromatic aberration because all wavelengths will reflect off the mirror in the same way. The support for the objective mirror is all along the back side so they can be made very large.</u></em>
  • Additionally, reflector telescopes are cheaper to make than refractors of the same size. Also since in reflector telescopes light is reflecting off the objective, rather than passing through it, only one side of the reflector telescope's objective needs to be perfect.

When you look at a white light bulb through red sunglasses, why does the light look red to your eyes? What happened to all the o
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The answer is explained below in explanation

Explanation:

Whenever light falls on a colored surface, that color of light is reflected by the surface and all the other colors are absorbed. That is a black body appears black in all lights, because it absorbs every color and a white surface appears to be of the color of the light shone upon it because it is the mixture of all colors of light and reflects every color. The eyes only see the reflected light colors. The absorbed colors are not apparent to the eyes.

<u>Hence, when the white bulb is seen through red sunglasses, it does look like red to our eyes, while all the other colors are absorbed by the sun glasses.</u>
