Answer:

d = 120 m

Explanation:

Data:

Speed (s) = 15 m/s
Time (t) = 8 s
Distance (d) = ?

Use the formula:

d = s * t

Replace with the data, and solve:

d = 15 m/s * 8 s
d = 120 m

The distance is 120 meters.

Answer:

7 / 1

Explanation:

The ratio of their amplitude = one-seventh and the ratio of their amplitude = the ratio of their wavelength

Ax / Ay = λx / λy = 1 / 7

9. a. Determine the mass of a football which has a weight of 0.80 N on a planet where the gravitational field strength is 2 N/kg

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

m = 0.4 [kg]

Explanation:

Weight is considered as a force and this is equal to the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

$W=m*g\\$

where:

W = weight = 0.8 [N]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration 2[N/kg]

Therefore:

$m=W/g\\m = .8/2\\m = 0.4 [kg]$

a 280 nm thin film with index of refraction 1.6 floats on waterwhat is the largest wavelength of reflected light for which const

aksik [14]

Answer:

Inside the film the wavelength will be λ/n

For constructive interference to occur the film must be λf/4 thick where λf is the wavelength of the light in the film - there will be a 180 degree phase shift at the water/film interface since the index of refraction of the film is greater than that of water - and the light has to travel λ/2 inside the film for constructive interference to occur

280 nm / 1.6 * 4 = 700 nm is the greatest wavelength allowed

Note that 700 nm is also the upper wavelength of the visible spectrum

James observes that the Polaris star in the northern hemisphere does not rise and set in the sky. His teacher tells him that thi

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Just above the pole (top-most red circle)

Explanation:

Polaris is used to identify North direction. Since, the Earth rotates on its axis which is along North-south, Polaris never seems to rise and set from the Northern hemisphere. This is because Polaris lies above north pole. Thus, in the given diagram, Polaris is above the North pole on the axis represented by top-most red circle.
