In the introduction of this activity, we mentioned the temperature of your home on hot and cold days. Your body is kept warm in

your home primarily by two ways: by direct contact with the air around you and by absorbing infrared light that is radiated from the walls. As you have seen in this activity, the light that is radiated from an object depends almost solely on the temperature of the object. Based on what you have learned here, what is one reason for feeling warmer in your house on a summer day versus a winter day even though your thermostat is set the same?
a - The walls of the house are warmer during the summer. Therefore, they radiate more infrared light that can serve to warm our body.
b - The walls of the house are warmer during the summer. Therefore, they radiate more visible light that can serve to warm our body.
c - The walls of the house are warmer during the summer. Therefore, they radiate more ultraviolet (UV) light that can serve to warm our body.
d - The temperature of the walls of the house has no effect on the light they radiate.

Answer:

a) The walls of the house are warmer during the summer. Therefore, they radiate more infrared light that can serve to warm our body.

Explanation:

Option a) is the correct one, since to feel a little warmer being inside the house has to do with absorbing the infrared radiation that is transmitted by the walls. It is well known that in the summer the walls of a house tend to heat up to a higher temperature, therefore they are capable of emitting the infrared radiation that the body of anyone inside a house is capable of absorbing and causing those people feel warmer.

Answer:

a - The walls of the house are warmer during the summer. Therefore, they radiate more infrared light that can serve to warm our body.

Explanation:

The answer is Option(a). According to studies, the reason to feel warmer inside the house is the absorption of infrared radiations emitted by the walls. Also more the temperature of the body, the more the heat radiated by it. During summer the walls of the house are at higher temperature for which they emit more infrared radiations which our body absorbs and make us feel more warmer.

The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F 2 F0 5 kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the prel
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

a)W=8.333lbf.ft

b)W=0.0107 Btu.

Explanation:

<u>Complete question</u>

The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F– F0 = kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the preload. Determine the work required to compress a spring whose spring constant is k= 200 lbf/in a distance of one inch starting from its free length where F0 = 0 lbf. Express your answer in both lbf-ft and Btu.

Solution

Preload = F₀=0 lbf

Spring constant k= 200 lbf/in

Initial length of spring x₁=0

Final length of spring x₂= 1 in

At any point, the force during deflection of a spring is given by;

F= F₀× kx  where F₀ initial force, k is spring constant and x is the deflection from original point of the spring.

W=\int\limits^2_1 {} \, Fds \\\\\\W=\int\limits^2_1( {F_0+kx} \,) dx \\\\\\W=\int\limits^a_b {kx} \, dx ; F_0=0\\\\\\W=k\int\limits^2_1 {x} \, dx \\\\\\W=k*\frac{1}{2} (x_2^{2}-x_1^{2}  )\\\\\\W=200*\frac{1}{2} (1^2-0)\\\\\\W=100.lbf.in\\\\

Change to lbf.ft by dividing the value by 12 because 1ft=12 in

100/12 = 8.333 lbf.ft

work required to compress the spring, W=8.333lbf.ft

The work required to compress the spring in Btu will be;

1 Btu= 778 lbf.ft

?= 8.333 lbf.ft----------------cross multiply

(8.333*1)/ 778 =0.0107 Btu.

Ferdinand the frog is hopping from lily pad to lily pad in search of a good fly
loris [4]

Answer: 36.86\°

Explanation:

According to the described situation we have the following data:

Horizontal distance between lily pads: d=2.4 m

Ferdinand's initial velocity: V_{o}=5 m/s

Time it takes a jump: t=0.6 s

We need to find the angle \theta at which Ferdinand jumps.

In order to do this, we first have to find the <u>horizontal component (or x-component)</u> of this initial velocity. Since we are dealing with parabolic movement, where velocity has x-component and y-component, and in this case we will choose the x-component to find the angle:

V_{x}=\frac{d}{t} (1)

V_{x}=\frac{2.4 m}{0.6 s} (2)

V_{x}=4 m/s (3)

On the other hand, the x-component of the velocity is expressed as:

V_{x}=V_{o}cos\theta (4)

Substituting (3) in (4):

4 m/s=5 m/s cos\theta (5)

Clearing \theta:

\theta=cos^{-1} (\frac{4 m/s}{5 m/s})

\theta=36.86\° This is the angle at which Ferdinand the frog jumps between lily pads

A fighter jet is catapulted off an aircraft carrier from rest to 75 m/s. If the aircraft carrier deck is 100 m long, what is the
egoroff_w [7]

The acceleration of the jet is 28.1 m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the motion of the jet is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

For the jet in this problem, we have

u = 0

v = 75 m/s

s = 100 m

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{75^2-0}{2(100)}=28.1 m/s^2

At an age of 380,000 years, the temperature of the universe had fallen to 3000 K, and electrons could then combine with protons
defon

Answer:

The major transition occurred as a consequence of this change in the universe at this time is that  <em>b)The universe became transparent to light for the first time.</em>

Explanation:

For the first 380,000 years or so, the universe was essentially too hot for light to shine. The heat of creation smashed atoms together with enough force to break them up into a dense plasma, an opaque soup of protons, neutrons and electrons that scattered light like fog. Then 380,000 years after the Big Bang, matter cooled enough for atoms to form during the era of recombination, resulting in a transparent, electrically neutral gas.

This set loose the initial flash of light created during the Big Bang, which is detectable today as cosmic microwave background radiation. However, after this point, the universe was plunged into darkness, since no stars or any other bright objects had formed yet.

If the mass of one of two particles is doubled and the distance between them is doubled, the force of attraction between the two
andre [41]
The force of attraction between the two particles will remain the same, because when mass is doubled, force of attraction is doubled. However, when distance between their centers is doubled, then force of  attraction is halved. As such double and half cancel out each other and force of attraction remains the same.
