Why will light from the sun change the color of the cloth when the light from the desk lamp does not
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Because the sun gives off a type of light that carries energy, and light from the desk lamp does not.

Explanation:

All of the energy from the Sun that reaches the Earth arrives as solar radiation, part of a large collection of energy called the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. Solar radiation includes visible light, ultraviolet light, infrared, radio waves, X-rays, and gamma rays. Radiation is one way to transfer heat.

7. Water flows trough a horizontal tube of diameter 2.5 cm that is joined to a second horizontal tube of diameter 1.2 cm. The pr
Usimov [2.4K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the continuity of fluids in a pipeline and apply Bernoulli's balance on the given speeds.

Our values are given as

d_1 = 2.5cm \rightarrow r_1=1.25cm=1.25*10^{-2}m

d_2 = 1.2cm \rightarrow r_2 = 0.6cm = 0.6*10^{-2}m

From the continuity equations in pipes we have to

A_1V_1 = A_2 V_2

Where,

A_{1,2} = Cross sectional Area at each section

V_{1,2} = Flow Velocity at each section

Then replacing we have,

(\pi r_1^2) v_1 = (\pi r_2^2) v_2

(1.25*10^{-2})^2 v_1 = ( 0.06*10^{-2})^2 v_2

v_2 = \frac{(1.25*10^{-2})^2 }{0.6*10^{-2})^2} v_1

From Bernoulli equation we have that the change in the pressure is

\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)

7.3*10^3 = \frac{1}{2} (1000)([ \frac{(1.25*10^{-2})^2 }{0.6*10^{-2})^2} v_1 ]^2-v_1^2)

7300= 8919.01 v_1^2

v_1 = 0.9m/s

Therefore the speed of flow in the first tube is 0.9m/s

A sprinter runs 50m. You are given a stopwatch. Describe how you would measure: 1. the average speed of the sprinter over the en
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance = 50 m

1. To find the average speed, first start the stop watch as the sprinter starts running and then stop it when he reaches the finish line.

Now note the time taken by the sprinter to run for 50 m.

The average speed of the sprinter is defined as the ratio of total distance covered to the total time taken.

Average speed = total distance / total time

2. To find the instantaneous speed, check the seed of the sprinter as he is at the finish line.
