Answer:

<u><em>Definition of spectral line: </em></u><em>one of a series of linear images formed by a spectrograph or similar instrument and corresponding to a narrow portion of the spectrum of the radiation emitted or absorbed by a particular source.</em>

<em />

<u><em>Definition of Wavelength:</em></u><em> can be defined as the distance between two successive crests or troughs of a wave. It is measured in the direction of the wave. ... Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency. This means the longer the wavelength, lower the frequency.</em>

<em />

<em>So, the spectrum is the range of wavelength in visible light. While, wavelength is the length of a wave.</em>

The area of the piston to the master cylinder in a hydraulic braking system of a car is 0.6 square inches. If a force of 5.6 lb

balu736 [363]

Answer:

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

Explanation:

Force applied on the piston = $F_1=5.6 lb$

Area of the piston = $A_1=0.6 inches^2$

Force applied on the brakes = $F_2$

Area of the brakes = $A_2=1.8 inches^2$

Applying Pascal's law: 'For an incompressible fluid pressure at one surface is equal to the pressure at other surface'.

$\frac{F_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}$

$F_2=\frac{5.6 lb\times 1.8 inhes^2}{0.6 inches^2}=16.8 lb$

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

A body weighs 100newtons when submerged in water. calculate the upthrust action on the body

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Upthrust = 20 N

Explanation:

The question says that "A body weighs 100N in air and 80N when submerged in water. Calculate the upthrust acting on the body ?"

Upthrust is defined as the force when a body is submerged in liquid, then liquid applies a force on it.

ATQ,

Weight of body in air is 100 N

Weight of body in water is 80 N

Upthrust is equal to the weight of body in air minus weight of body in water.

Upthrust = 100 N - 80 N

Upthrust = 20 N

So, 20 N of upthrust is acting on the body.
