Kiana is wearing a black shirt and shiny necklace. While she is outside at recess her shirt absorbs the light waves and gets very hot in the sun, but her necklace reflects the light waves and small circles of light are seen around the yard. What explains why the light waves behaved differently on her shirt than they did on her necklace?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Black bodies are good absorber of light waves from the sun, while shining surfaces are good reflector of the light waves.

Explanation:

Generally, a black surface or material tends to absorb light waves while under the sun, while a shiny surface is a good reflector of the waves. This is because the black material is a good absorber, and also a good emitter.

The shiny necklace can only absorb little light waves from the sun, thus it reflects most of the light waves. The reflection is the reason for the small circles of light seen around the yard.

However, when in a cool environment the black shirt would cools faster (good emitter) than the shiny necklace.

A forklift was used to lift a 750 kg. oil drum 18 m straight up into the air to store on a shelf. If it does it in 28 seconds, Calculate the work and power exerted by the forklift.
W= J

P= watts

Answers

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of forklift  = 750kg

Height of lift  = 18m

Time taken  = 28s

Unknown:

Work done = ?

Power = ?

Solution;

 The work done by the forklift is given as:

  Work done = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

   Work done  = 750 x 9.8 x 18  = 132300J

Power is the rate at which work is done;

      Power  = [tex]\frac{work done }{time}[/tex]  

 Insert the parameters and solve;

    Power  = [tex]\frac{132300}{28}[/tex]  = 4725W

The movie "The Gods Must Be Crazy" begins with a pilot dropping a bottle out of an airplane. A surprised native below, who thinks it is a message from the gods, recovers it. If the plane from which the bottle was dropped was flying at a height of 500 m, and the bottle lands 400 m horizontally from the initial dropping point, how fast was the plane flying when the bottle was released? Draw a 2-dimensional motion map for the velocities and another for the acceleration.

Answers

Answer:

1) The Speed of the plane is approximately 39.596 m/s

2) Please find attached the required velocity and acceleration graphs

Explanation:

1) The height at which the plane was flying, h = 500 m

The location the bottle lands from the initial dropping point = 400 m

The time it takes the bottle to land is given by the equation for free fall as follows;

h = 1/2·g·t²

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

t = √(h/(1/2·g) = √(500/(1/2×9.8) ≈ 10.102

The Speed of the plane = The horizontal velocity of the bottle = 400/10.102 ≈ 39.596

The Speed of the plane ≈ 39.596 m/s

2) Please find attached the velocity graph for the vertical and horizontal velocities of the bottle and the acceleration graph for the vertical motion of the bottle, created with Microsoft Excel

Why d/dt(a+bt^2)=2bt

Answers

Because a, not being multiplied for t, becomes a constant and goes away.
bt^2 is an elementary derivation

d/dt(a+bt^2) = 0 + 2bt = 2bt

Because a is not a function of t .

So d/dt of a is zero.


A concrete block of mass 35kg is pulled along a horizontal floor with the aid of a rope inclined at an angle of 30⁰ to the horizontal. If the coefficient of friction is 0.75, Calculate the force required to move the block( g = 10 ms⁻²)

A. 401.5 N
B. 226.5 N
C. 211.5 N
D. 245. 7N​

Answers

Answer:

C. 211.5 N

Explanation:

We included a free body diagram representation of the concrete block. The equation of equilibrium in the x-direction:

[tex]\Sigma F_{x} = P\cdot \cos \alpha -\mu_{k}\cdot N = m\cdot a[/tex] (1)

[tex]\Sigma F_{y} = N + P\cdot \sin \alpha -m\cdot g = 0[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]P[/tex] - External force exerted on the block, measured in newtons.

[tex]N[/tex] - Normal force from the ground to the block, measured in newtons.

[tex]\alpha[/tex] - Direction of the external force, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

[tex]\mu_{k}[/tex] - Kinetic coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the concrete block, measured in kilograms.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]a[/tex] - Net acceleration of the concrete block, measured in meters per square second.

The minimum force to move block occurs when net force is zero, from (2) we get that the normal force is:

[tex]N = m\cdot g -P\cdot \sin \alpha[/tex]

And by applying this formula in (1), we get that the external force is:

[tex]P\cdot \cos \alpha - \mu_{k}\cdot (m\cdot g -P\cdot \sin \alpha) = m\cdot a[/tex]

[tex]P\cdot \cos \alpha -\mu_{k}\cdot m\cdot g +\mu_{k}\cdot P\cdot \sin \alpha = 0[/tex]

[tex]P\cdot (\cos \alpha +\mu_{k}\cdot \sin \alpha)=\mu_{k}\cdot m\cdot g[/tex]

[tex]P = \frac{\mu_{k}\cdot m\cdot g}{\cos \alpha +\mu_{k}\cdot \sin \alpha}[/tex]

If we know that [tex]\mu_{k} = 0.75[/tex], [tex]m = 35\,kg[/tex], [tex]g = 10\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]\alpha = 30^{\circ}[/tex]. then the external force is:

[tex]P = \frac{(0.75)\cdot (35\,kg)\cdot \left(10\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{\cos 30^{\circ}+0.75\cdot \sin 30^{\circ}}[/tex]

[tex]P \approx 211.518\,N[/tex]

The correct answer is C.

For a given force as time ___
the impulse related to that force increases. *
A. increases
B. decreases

Answers

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

For a given force, as the time increases, the impulse related to that force increases also.

Impulse and time are directly related to one another. Impulse is mathematically given as:

           I  = F t

I is the impulse

F is the force

t is the time taken

So, as both force and time increases, the value of the impulse must increase.

Conclusion When there is a constant unbalanced force applied in the same direction as the motion, speed will ___________________ and acceleration will _____________________________. When there is an increasing unbalanced force applied in the same direction as the motion, speed will ___________________ and acceleration will ________________________. When there is a constant unbalanced force applied in the opposite direction as the motion, speed will ___________________ and acceleration will ________________________. When there is an increasing unbalanced force applied in the opposite direction as the motion, speed will ___________________ and acceleration will ________________________.

Heat transfers through Earth's systems in different ways. In which atmospheric action can we see evidence of conduction? Cold air pushes warm air upward, creating a current. Cold air pushes warm air upward, creating a current. The surface of the Earth heats the air that contacts it. The surface of the Earth heats the air that contacts it. Radiation from the Sun heats the surface of the Earth. Radiation from the Sun heats the surface of the Earth. Air increases in density and sinks back towards the Earth.

Answers

Answer:

B. The surface of the Earth heats the air that contacts it.

Explanation:

Conduction is a mode of heat transfer in which energy is transferred from a hot molecule to the neighboring molecules due to contact. Thus, heat energy is transferred from one molecule to another in the process.

Therefore, the air that comes in contact with the surface of the earth heats up by conduction. Since the surface of the earth is heated up due to the radiation from the Sun.

Answers

Answer:

C. Radio waves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies than microwaves.

Explanation:

Radio waves and microwaves are both electromagnetic waves. They do not require a medium for their propagation.

These waves are produced as result of the vibration between electric and magnetic fields perpendicular to one another.

On the electromagnetic spectrum, the waves are listed from left to rightAlong the spectrum, wavelength increases as frequency decreases. Energy also decreases to the right on the spectrum. Since microwaves comes before radio waves, they have shorter wavelength and higher frequency than micro waves.
