If you don't wear a helmet and let's say you fell off your bike, you can severely injure your head! But if you DO wear a helmet and you fell off your bike, there's about I predict a 98% chance that you won't injure but sometimes it's 100%

hope this helps!<span />

Answer:

Explanation:

A bicycle helmet is a very important gear to wear before riding a bicycle because :

1. It protects your head and brain from injury when you fall or crash into a moving car.

2. It reduces the chances of head,face and neck injuries.

It gives you the opportunity to show off your style. Most bicycle helmets have very colourful and great designs that add beauty to your outlook while riding a bicycle.

3. It makes you visible to other motorist using the road especially at night. Bicycle helmets has reflective shiny colours that gets the other road users attention.

At a department store, you adjust the mirrors in the dressing room so that they are parallel and 6.2 ft apart. You stand 1.8 ft
barxatty [35]

Answer:

<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>

<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>

Explanation:

Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft

difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft

a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.

According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,

your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>

b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.

the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,

the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,

therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>

The maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180^\circ .
vlabodo [156]

Answer: 90\°

Explanation:

The Compton Shift \Delta \lambda in wavelength when the photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

\Delta \lambda=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)     (1)

Where:

\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m is a constant whose value is given by \frac{h}{m_{e}c}, being h the Planck constant, m_{e} the mass of the electron and c the speed of light in vacuum.

\theta) the angle between incident phhoton and the scatered photon.

We are told the maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180\°:

\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos(180\°))     (2)

\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-(-1))    

\Delta \lambda_{max}=2\lambda_{c}     (3)

Now, let's find the angle that will produce a fourth of this maximum value found in (3):

\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{4}2\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)      (4)

\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)      (5)

If we want \frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}, 1-cos\theta   must be equal to 1:

1-cos\theta=1   (6)

Finding \theta:

1-1=cos\theta

0=cos\theta  

\theta=cos^{-1} (0)  

Finally:

\theta=90\°    This is the scattering angle that will produce \frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}

Ca anyone help me with writing a lab report about the reaction between the pepper and the soap in water
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Buoyancy force and surface tension are the reactions that take places between soap and pepper experiment.

Explanation:

Surface tension:

The surface tension of a liquid is the tendency of liquid surfaces to resist an external force due to the cohesive nature of its molecules.

The pepper and soap experiment helps you to understand buoyancy force and surface tension.

Reaction between the pepper and soap is as following.

  • The pepper flakes float because of buoyancy force. It makes the pepper flakes to move away to the edge of the plate.
  • This happens because the liquid dish soap changes the surface tension of water.
  • And The pepper flakes are so light, it floats on the water surface due to surface tension.
  • when we add soap, it breaks the surface tension of water, but the water resists it. So they pull away from the soap along with the pepper flakes.
  • This pushes the pepper away from your soap covered finger.

This is the reaction that take places between soap and pepper experiment.

A resistor is connected to a 36v power supply. An ammeter measures a current of 2.0 A going through it. Determine the resistance
m_a_m_a [10]

R = 18 ohms

Explanation:

Given:

V = 36 volts

I = 2.0 A

R = ?

Use Ohm's law to solve for the resistance:

V = IR

or

R = V/I

= (36 volts)/(2.0 A)

= 18 ohms
