The energy in the system is given by the law of conservation of energy.

The energy stored in the spring plus the gravitational potential energy of the block when it has fully compressed the spring will be equal to m·g·h.

Reason:

The given parameters are;

Surface of the inclined plane = Frictionless

Potential energy at the horizontal line = Zero of gravitational potential

By the law of Conservation of Energy, we have;

The spring will be compressed by a distance, <em>x</em>

The energy stored in the compressed spring, K.E. = (1/2)·k·x²

Energy in the block when the block comes to rest at a height, h₁, will be, P.E. = m·g·h₁

Therefore, by conservation of energy, we have;

The initial potential of the block = The stored energy in the compressed string + The gravitational potential energy of the block when it has compressed.

Therefore, the correct option is; <u>The energy stored in the spring plus the gravitational potential energy of the block when it has fully compressed the spring will be equal to m·g·h</u>

Stars of spectral type A and F are considered ________.
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

<u>B. the stars of spectral type A and F are considered reasonably to have habitable planets but much less likely to have planets with complex plant - or animal - like life.</u>

Explanation:

The appropriate spectral range for habitable stars is considered to be "late F" or "G", to "mid-K" or even late "A". <em>This corresponds to temperatures of a little more than 7,000 K down to a little less than 4,000 K</em> (6,700 °C to 3,700 °C); the Sun, a G2 star at 5,777 K, is well within these bounds. "Middle-class" stars (late A, late F, G , mid K )of this sort have a number of characteristics considered important to planetary habitability:

• They live at least a few billion years, allowing life a chance to evolve. <em>More luminous main-sequence stars of the "O", "B", and "A" classes usually live less than a billion years and in exceptional cases less than 10 million.</em>

• They emit enough high-frequency ultraviolet radiation to trigger important atmospheric dynamics such as ozone formation, but not so much that ionisation destroys incipient life.

• They emit sufficient radiation at wavelengths conducive to photosynthesis.

• Liquid water may exist on the surface of planets orbiting them at a distance that does not induce tidal locking.

<u><em>Thus , the stars of spectral type A and F are considered reasonably to have habitable planets but much less likely to have planets with complex plant - or animak - like life.</em></u>

A pendulum on earth swings with angular frequency ω. On an unknown planet, it swings with angular frequency ω/ 4. The accelerati
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

g / 16

Explanation:

T = 2π \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

angular frequency ω = 2π /T

= \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }

ω₁ /ω₂ = \sqrt{\frac{g_1}{g_2} }

Putting the values

ω₁ = ω ,     ω₂ = ω / 4

ω₁ /ω₂ = 4

4 =  \sqrt{\frac{g}{g_2} }

g₂ = g / 16

option d is correct.

A beam of light strikes one face of a window pane with an angle of incidence of 30.0°. The index of refraction of the glass is 1
natka813 [3]

Answer:

(a). The angle of refraction is 19.26°.

(b). That is proved that the rays in air on either side of the glass are parallel to each other

Explanation:

Given that,

Angle of incidence = 30.0°

Index of reflection of glass = 1.52

(a). We need to calculate the angle of refraction for the ray inside the glass

Using snell's law

\dfrac{\sin i}{\sin r}=\mu

\sin r=\dfrac{\sin i}{\mu}

Put the value into the formula

\sin r=\dfrac{\sin 30}{1.52}

r=\sin^{-1}(0.329)

r=19.26^{\circ}

(b). We know that,

The incident ray and emerging ray  is equal then the ray will be parallel.

We need to prove that the rays in air on either side of the glass are parallel to each other

Using formula for emerging ray

\dfrac{\sin e}{\sin r}=\mu

\sin e=\sin r\times \mu

Put the value into the formula

\sin e=0.3289\times 1.52

e=\sin^{-1}(0.499)

e=29.9\approx 30^{\circ}

So, \sin i=\sin e

This is proved.

Hence, (a). The angle of refraction is 19.26°.

(b). That is proved that the rays in air on either side of the glass are parallel to each other
