Answer:

7 meters, 2.8 meters

Explanation:

work done (nm) = force (n) * distance (m)

140= 20 * m

140/20 = m

m=7 meters

140= 50 * m

140/50 = m

m= 2.8 meters

A ray of light traveling in air is incident on the flat surface of a piece of glass at an angle of 65.9° with respect to the nor

stich3 [128]

Answer:

$n_{glass}$ = 1.6

Explanation:

$\theta _{i}$ = Angle of incidence = 65.9°

$\theta _{r}$ = Angle of refraction = 34.8°

$n_{air}$ = Index of refraction of air = 1

$n_{glass}$ = Index of refraction of glass = ?

Using Snell's law

$n_{air}$ Sin $\theta _{i}$ = $n_{glass}$ $\theta _{r}$

(1) Sin65.9 = $n_{glass}$ Sin34.8

$n_{glass}$ = 1.6

Below is an oscilloscope trace from an AC supply. Calculate the frequency of the supply if each horizontal division represents 0

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

20 hertz of frequency produced.

Explanation:

$\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{period} }$

Here we will find frequency and period should be in second, here given: 0.05 seconds

using the formula:

$\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{0.05} }$

$\boxed{frequency =20}$

A track star in the broad jump goes into the jump at 12 m/s and launches himself at 20° above the horizontal. How long is he in

emmainna [20.7K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of the broad jump, u = 12 m/s

It is launched at an angle of 20 degrees above the horizontal. Let t is the time for which the track star i in the air before returning to Earth. The motion of the track star in the broad jump can be treat as the projectile motion. The time of flight of the projectile is given by :

$t=\dfrac{2u\ sin\theta}{g}$

Putting all the values in above equation as :

$t=\dfrac{2\times 12\times \ sin(20)}{9.8}$

t = 0.837 seconds

So, the time for which the track star is in air is 0.837 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

Cloudy nights are usually warm because

almond37 [142]

Answer:

When you have a cloudy night, the clouds prevent heat from escaping through the atmosphere and into space.

The clouds act like a blanket and trap the heat it, and that is why every time you have a cloudy night, it is always warmer than a clear night.
