Answer:

Explanation:

Even though the minimum temperature is more than the freezing point, Frost was observed on the ground because the ground will cool rapidly as cool air tends to move towards the ground, the temperature of the ground is lower than the atmosphere a few feet above it.

As the thermometer is kept some feet above the ground so ground temperature may be lower than the minimum recorded temperature.

Which statement about images is correct? a) A virtual image cannot be formed on a screen. b) A virtual image cannot be viewed by
ankoles [38]

Answer:

A). A virtual image cannot be formed on a screen.

Explanation:

A virtual image can not be formed on a screen.

For image:

1.A virtual image can be viewed by the unaided eye.

2. A real image must be erect or maybe inverted.

3.Mirrors can produce virtual as well as real image ,it depends on which type of mirror is.

4.A virtual image can be photographed.

So the option A is correct.

The distance of the earth from the sun is 93 000 000 miles. if there are 3.15 × 107 s in one year, find the speed of the earth i
faltersainse [42]

The angular velocity of the orbit about the sun is:

w = 1 rev / year = 1 rev / 3.15 × 10^7 s

 

Now in 1 rev there is 360° or 2π rad, therefore:

w = 2π rad / 3.15 × 10^7 s

 

To convert in linear velocity, multiply the rad /s by the radius:

v = (2π rad / 3.15 × 10^7 s) * 93,000,000 miles

<span>v = 18.55 miles / s = 29.85 km / s</span>

When the mass of the bottle is 0.125 kg, the KE is______ kg m2/s2.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Answers are:
(1) KE = 1 kg m^2/s^2
(2) KE = 2 kg m^2/s^2
(3) KE = 3 kg m^2/s^2
(4) KE = 4 kg m^2/s^2


Explanation:

(1) Given mass = 0.125 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.125 * (16)
KE = 1 kg m^2/s^2

(2) Given mass = 0.250 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.250 * (16)
KE = 2 kg m^2/s^2

(3) Given mass = 0.375 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.375 * (16)
KE = 3 kg m^2/s^2

(4) Given mass = 0.500 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.5 * (16)
KE = 4 kg m^2/s^2
