We are given an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of 5.09 x 10^14 Hz and travelling through a transparent medium. If the medium was vacuum, the speed of the wave would be equal to the speed of light. Otherwise, the main factor that would determine the speed of the wave is its wavelength.

What is the equivalent resistance of a circuit that contains four 75.0 resistors connected in series to a 100.0 v battery
solong [7]
The equivalent resistance of several resistors connected in series is
the sum of their individual values.

Four 75-ohm resistors connected in series are electrically equivalent
to a single resistor of    300 ohms.

The battery voltage doesn't matter.  In fact, it doesn't matter whether the
resistors are anywhere near a battery or not.  They could just as well still
be in the little Radio Shack envelope on the top shelf of the storage room. 
If they're connected in series, then they're still electrically equivalent to a
single 300-ohm resistor.

7. Imagine you are pushing a 15 kg cart full of 25 kg of bottled water up a 10o ramp. If the coefficient of friction is 0.02, wh
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The frictional force needed to overcome the cart is 4.83N

Explanation:

The frictional force can be obtained using the following formula:

F= \mu R

where \mu is the coefficient of friction = 0.02

R = Normal reaction of the load = mgcos\theta = 25 \times 9.81 \times cos 10 = 241.52N

Now that we have the necessary parameters that we can place into the equation, we can now go ahead and make our substitutions, to get the value of F.

F=0.02 \times 241.52N

F = 4.83 N

Hence, the frictional force needed to overcome the cart is 4.83N

In the Atwood machine shown below, m1 = 2.00 kg and m2 = 6.05 kg. The masses of the pulley and string are negligible by comparis
Rus_ich [418]
M1 descending
−m1g + T = m1a 

m2 ascending
m2g − T = m2a

this gives :
(m2 − m1)g = (m1 + m2)a 

a = (m2 − m1)g/m1 + m2
   = (5.60 − 2)/(2 + 5.60) x 9.81 
   = = 4.65m/s^2

Which of the following characteristics of Earth's relationship to the Sun explains the existence of Earth's seasons? Choose all
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Earth's axis is tilted relative to its orbital plane.

Earth orbits around the Sun, completing one orbit each year

Explanation:

The earth tilt at an angle causes the sun rays to hit the earth surface around the globe differently. Due to the oblique angle that the rays hit the subtropics and poles, there is less heat intensity compared to the equator where the sun rays hit the earth's surface at a more or less right angle.

The earth rotation around the sun also causes seasons coupled with the earth’s tilts. As the earth rotates, in one point in the orbit, the northern or southern hemispheres will be tilted towards the sun. The phenomenon varies the local temperatures of particular regions of the earth hence driving seasonal climatic changes.
