Answer:

B

Explanation:

Formula

Mechanical advantage = length of the ramp / height

Givens

Length of the ramp = 8

Mechanical advantage = 2

height = ?

Solution

2 = 8feet / height                                  Multiply both sides by height

2* height = 8 feet * height / height      Combine

2* height  = 8 feet                                 Divide by 2

2*height/2 = 8 feet/2                              

height = 4 feet.

Light of wavelength 476.1 nm falls on two slits spaced 0.29 mm apart. What is the required distance from the slits to the screen
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The distance is D  =  2.6 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The wavelength of the light is  \lambda  =  476.1 \ nm  =  476.1 *10^{-9} \ m

      The  distance between the slit is  d =  0.29 \  mm  =  0.29 *10^{-3} \ m

       The  between the first and second dark fringes is  y =  4.2 \ mm  =  4.2 *10^{-3} \ m

Generally  fringe width is mathematically represented as

       y  =  \frac{\lambda * D }{d}

Where D is the distance of the slit to the screen

   Hence

        D  =  \frac{y *  d}{\lambda }

substituting values

       D  =  \frac{ 4.2 *10^{-3} *   0.29 *10^{-3}}{ 476.1 *10^{-9} }

        D  =  2.6 \ m

kristine speeds past a parked police car at 32 m/s. The police car starts from rest with a uniform acceleration of 2.5 m/s^2. Ho
Digiron [165]

32 = 0 \times t +  \frac{1}{2} \times 2.5 \times t^{2}     \\  32 = 0 + 1.25 \times t {}^{2}  \\ 32 = 1.25t {}^{2}   \\   \frac{32}{1.25}  =  \frac{1.25t {}^{2} }{1.25}  \\ t {}^{2}  = 25.6 \\  \sqrt{t {}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{25.6}  \\ t = 5.1seconds \\

How long does it take a car traveling at 45km/h to travel 100.0 m?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

8 seconds

Explanation:

Since the carspeed is in km/h, we need equal units, so we will make 100.0m 0.1000km.

Then we need to find how long it takes the car to travel 0.1km

We can use the formula distance=speed * time and get

0.1=45 * time

Therefore we get .002222... hours

Multiplying this by 3600 (to get seconds, 60x60), we get 8 seconds
