Design an experimental set up to show that white light is made up of different colours of light​

Physics
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Issac Newton was the first to use a glass prism to obtain the spectrum of sunlight. He tried to split the colours of the spectrum of white light further by using another similar prism. However, he could not get any more colours. He then placed a second identical prism in an inverted position with respect to the first as shown.

This allowed all the colours of the spectrum to pass through the second prism. He found a beam of white light emerging from the other side of the second prism. This observation gave Newton the idea that the sunlight is made-up of seven colours.

Nady [450]

If you measured all the energy related to motion and all the stored energy in the particles of a substance, you would be measuring the thermal energy of the particles. If there is movement of the particles, they are also releasing energy in the form of heat.

Calculate the total energy of 4.0 kg object moving horizontally at 20 m/s 50 meters above the surface.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Correct answer:  E total = 2,800 J

Explanation:

Given:

m = 4 kg   the mass of the object

V = 20 m/s  the speed (velocity) of the object

H = 50 m the height of the object above the surface

E total = ? J

The total energy of an object is equal to the sum of potential and kinetic energy

E total = Ep + Ek

Ep = m g H   we take g = 10 m/s²

Ep = 4 · 10 · 50 = 2,000 J

Ek = m V² / 2

Ek = 4 · 20² / 2 = 2 · 400 = 800 J

E total = 2,000 + 800 = 2,800 J

E total = 2,800 J
