Answer:

False

Explanation:

Though fiber active cable is based on the concept of internal reflection but it is achieved by refractive index which transmit data through fast traveling pulses of light. It has a layer of glass and insulating casing called “cladding,”and this is is wrapped around the central fiber thereby causing light to continuously bounce back from the walls of the Cable.

How much power does it take to lift a 24 kg gift box 6m above the floor in 4 s?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

<h2>5.6kW</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

mass m= 24kg

distance moved= 6m

time taken= 4seconds

Step two:

Required

power

but work done is the force applied at a distance, and the power is the work done time the time taken

Work done= F*D

F=mg

W= mg*D

W=24*9.81*6

W=1412.6J

Power P= work * time

P=1412.6*4

p=5650.5W

P=5.6kW

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

after shock

creating a system for the conservation of the energy of the basketball ball and creating a system for the tennis ball only, the conservation of energy should be applied to each system independently

Explanation:

When the two balls fall they acquire the same speed since they are accelerated by the same force, their weight and the acceleration of the acceleration of gravity. When reaching the floor the mechanical energy of the system is conserved.

Upon reaching the floor, the first ball (basketball) collides with the floor, this process is very fast, at the end of the process the basketball comes out with a velicad up and collides with the much lighter tennis ball that is still descending .

we assume that the shocks are elastic, when solving the momentary and kinetic energy findings, we find the velocities after each shock

     

In this clash the tennis ball acquires a high kinetic speed with an upward direction that makes a very high height high. Again this shock is very fast and the tennis ball almost does not move.

Here we must separate the system, creating a system for the conservation of the energy of the basketball ball and another system for the tennis ball only, the conservation of energy should be applied to each system independently

Em₀ =K = 1/2 m v²

                    Em_{f} = U = m g h

As in the elastic shock the final speed of the tennis ball is approximately 2 vo, we can calculate the maximum height

                 m g h = 1/2 m (2v₀)²

                 h = 2 v₀²/g

To reconcile this with the conservation of energy we must calculate the energy for the tennis ball at two points, the first when the crash with the tennis ball ends and at the end point at its maximum height.

In a typical Van de Graaff linear accelerator, protons are accelerated through a potential difference of 20 MV. What is their ki
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

a) 2 x10^7 eV

b) 2 x10^4 keV

c) 20 MeV

d) 0.02 Gev

e) 3.2 x 10^-12J

Explanation:

The potential difference = 20 x 10^6 V

The charge on the proton = 1.6 x10^-19

The work done to move the proton will be basically the proton will acquire if it accelerates.

Kinetic energy gained = ΔVq = 20 x10^6 x 1.6 x 10^-19

                                                 =3.2 x 10^-12J or 2 x10^7 eV

2 x10^7 eV = 2 x10^4 keV = 20 MeV = 0.02 Gev

Light from distant galaxies most likely shows a ...red shift, indicating that the universe is expandingblue shift, indicating th
ELEN [110]

Answer:

red shift, indicating that the universe is expanding

Explanation:

Doppler effect occurs when a source of a wave (e.g. light, or sound waves) moves relative to an observer; as a result of this relative motion, the wavelength of the wave appears lengthened/shortened to the observer. Two situations can occur:

- The source of the wave is moving towards the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes shorter. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the blue-end of the spectrum (blue-shift)

- The source of the wave is moving away from the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes longer. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the red-end of the spectrum (red-shift)

In our universe, we observe a red-shift for all the distant galaxies: this means that these galaxies are moving away from us, so this is an indication that the universe is expanding.
