Answer:

a solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes in front of the sun,blocking it out partially or completely. the eclipse results in parts of the earth being covered in the shadow of the moon. a lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes directly behind earth and into its shadow.

Which statement correctly compares ultraviolet light to visible light? Ultraviolet light has both a lower frequency and longer w

Effectus [21]

The correct statement is

Ultraviolet light has both a higher frequency and a higher radiant energy than visible light.

because ultraviolet light has wavelength smaller than the visible light hence has a greater frequency as compared to visible light. (frequency is inversely related to wavelength. hence smaller the wavelength , greater will be the frequency)

we also know that the radiant energy is directly proportional to the frequency. hence greater the frequency , greater will be the radiant energy.

Since the frequency is greater for ultraviolet light , it radiant energy is also greater

An electromagnetic wave of wavelength

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

$4.01\cdot 10^{-7} m$

Explanation:

When an electromagnetic wave passes through the interface between two mediums, it undergoes refraction, which means that it bents and its speed and its wavelength change.

In particular, the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave in a certain medium is related to the index of refraction of the medium by:

$\lambda=\frac{\lambda_0}{n}$

where

$\lambda_0$ is the wavelength in a vacuum (air is a good approximation of vacuum)

n is the refractive index of the medium

In this problem:

$\lambda_0 = 5.89\cdot 10^{-7} m$ is the original wavelength of the wave

n = 1.47 is the index of refraction of corn oil

Therefore, the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave in corn oil is:

$\lambda=\frac{5.89\cdot 10^{-7}}{1.47}=4.01\cdot 10^{-7} m$

A certain ideal gas has molar heat capacity at constant volume CV. A sample of this gas initially occupies a volume V0 at pressu

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

The processes are described on the image attached below. The isobaric process consists of an horizontal line, the adiabatic expansion is described by a polytropic curve:

$P_{2} \cdot V_{2}^{\gamma} = P_{3} \cdot V_{3}^{\gamma}$

Where:

$\gamma = \frac{c_{p}}{c_{v}}$

$\gamma = 1 + \frac{R}{c_{v}}$

Final pressure is:

$P_{3} = P_{2}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{2}}{V_{3}} \right)^{\gamma}$

$P_{3} = P_{o}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\gamma}$

$P_{3} = \frac{P_{o}}{2^{\gamma}}$

avanturin [10]

Answer:

(a) W= 44N

(b)W= 31.65 N

Explanation:

Data

T=44 N : Maximum force that the rope can withstand without breaking

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

(a) We apply the formula (1) at constant speed , then, a=0

W: heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically

∑F = 0

T-W =0

W = T

W= 44N

(b) We apply the formula (1) , a= 1.26 m/s²

W: heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically

W= m*g

m= W/g

g= 9.8 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

∑F = 0

T-W = m*a

T= W+(W/g)*a

44=W*(1+1/9.8)* (1.26 )

44= W* 1.39

W= 44/1.39

W= 31.65 N
