Dacia wants to know how to determine the polar coordinate θ. What should Katarina tell Dacia?

crimeas [40]

Answer:

r = √ x² + y² and θ = tan⁻¹ y / x

Explanation:

The polar coordinates are obtained by transforming the Cartesian coordinates (x y) into others (r tés), for this we use to find r the Pythagorean theorem

r = √ x² + y²

To find teas we use trigonometries

tan θ = y / x

θ = tan⁻¹ y / x

In general the angle can be given in any unit, but the most used in physics is in radians

If the frog lands with a velocity equal to its average velocity and comes to a full stop 0.25s later, what is the frog’s average

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Average accelation = -4V

Explanation:

$a=\frac{V-V0}{t}$

V=0 m/s (because the frog stopped)

V0 = V (average velocity)

t= 0,25 s

So;

$a=\frac{V-V0}{t}=\frac{0-V}{0.25}=-4V$

A tennis ball with a velocity of +10.0 m/s to the right is thrown perpendicularly at a wall. After striking the wall, the ball r

netineya [11]

Answer:

-1500 m/s2

Explanation:

So the ball velocity changes from 10m/s into the wall to -8m/s in a totally opposite direction within a time span of 0.012s. Then we can calculate the average acceleration of the ball as the change in velocity over a unit of time.

$a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{-8 - 10}{0.012} = \frac{-18}{0.012} = -1500 m/s^2$

Compare the strengths of UV light and microwaves (in Hz). Which type of light is more powerful and how do you know?

TEA [102]

Answer:

UV light is more powerful as it has greater energy.

Explanation:

The energy propagated by electromagnetic waves ( light ) through vacuum or medium is known as electromagnetic radiation.

The frequency/wavelength range of electromagnetic radiation is known as electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum ranging from gamma ray to radio waves.

Frequency range of UV light = ( 8 x 10¹⁴ to 3 x 10¹⁶ ) Hz

Frequency range of Microwaves = ( 300 x 10⁶ to 300 x 10⁹ ) Hz

Ratio of UV light to Microwaves = ( $\frac{8\times10^{14} }{300\times10^{6} }$ to $\frac{3\times10^{16} }{300\times10^{9} }$ )

= ( 2.66 x 10⁶ to 1 x 10⁸ )

Energy of electromagnetic radiation is given by the relation:

E = hν

Here h is plank's constant and ν is frequency.

UV light is more powerful than Microwaves as frequency of UV light is greater than frequency of microwaves. Thus, by the above equation, the energy of UV light is more than energy of Microwaves.
