Answer:

If you hold a hot glass tumbler under cold water, it will crack

Explanation:

This is because the outer surface of the glass comes in direct contact with cold water and contracts more compared to the inner surface.

This is one example I know.

How do greenhouse gases such as CO2 and N2O contribute to an increase in Earth’s atmospheric temperature?
konstantin123 [22]
CO2 and N2O keep the energy that gets to Earth from the sun inside the atmosphere. Without greenhouse gases, our planet would be too cold. But due to the recent increase in greenhouse gases, more energy released from the sun is contained in the Earth, heating it up.

To understand the experiment that led to the discovery of the photoelectric effect.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

A) Emin = eV

B) Vo = (E_light - Φ) ÷ e

Explanation:

A)

Energy of electron is the product of electron charge and the applied potential difference.

The energy of an electron in this electric field with potential difference V will be eV. Since this is the least energy that the electron must reach to break out, then the minimum energy required by this electron will be;

Emin = eV

B)

The maximum stopping potential energy is eVo,

The energy of the electron due to the light is E_light.

If the minimum energy electron must posses is Φ, then the minimum energy electron must have to reach the detectors will be equal to the energy of the light minus the maximum stopping potential energy

Φ = E_light - eVo

Therefore,

eVo = E_light - Φ

Vo = (E_light - Φ) ÷ e

How many nanoseconds does it take light to travel 3.50 ft in vacuum?
Fiesta28 [93]
Answer:3.56 nanosecond

In this case, you are asked the time and given the light distance(3.5ft)
To answer this question you would need to know the velocity of light. Speed of light is <span>299792458m/s. Then the calculation would be:

time= distance/speed
time= 3.5 ft / (</span>299792458m/s) x 0.3048 meter/ 1 ft=  3.56 10^{-9} second or 3.56 nanosecond

MATHPHYSSSSSSSS PLEASEEEEEE IM SORRY YOU PROBABLY HATE ME
inysia [295]

Answer:

3.1 m/s

Explanation:

First, find the time it takes for the cat to land.  Take down to be positive.

Given:

Δy = 0.61 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.81 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(0.61 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.81 m/s²) t²

t = 0.353 s

Now find the horizontal velocity needed to travel 1.1 m in that time.

Given:

Δx = 1.1 m

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.353 s

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(1.1 m) = v₀ (0.353 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.353 s)²

v₀ = 3.1 m/s

If a reaction occurs when a piece of metal is placed in a solution, what can you conclude about the solution?
Tju [1.3M]
You can conclude that the solution is probably acidic because bases rarely react with metals.
