The answer is D. Blackbody radiation. The piece of iron glows red because its temperature is around 1000 K, then yellow because its temperature is around 2800 K, and then white because its temperature is around 5500K. This shows that the spectrum of the radiation is determined by absolute temperature, as when the temperature of a blackbody radiator increases, the peak of the radiation curve moves to shorter wavelengths.

A 1000 kilogram empty cart moving with a speed of 6.0 meters per second is about to collide with a stationary loaded cart having
yuradex [85]

Explanation:

a) m1u1 + m2u2 = v(m1+m2)

1000×6 + 5000×0 = v(1000+5000)

6000 + 0 = 6000v

v = 6000/6000

v = 1 m/s

b) ½ ×(m1+m2)v²

= 0.5×6000×1²

=0.5×6000

=3000J

=3KJ

c) solve for b4 collision and compare

Goodluck

A 5.00μF parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a 12.0 V battery. After the capacitor is fully charged, the battery is disconn
EastWind [94]

(a) 12.0 V

In this problem, the capacitor is connected to the 12.0 V, until it is fully charged. Considering the capacity of the capacitor, C=5.00 \mu F, the charged stored on the capacitor at the end of the process is

Q=CV=(5.00 \mu F)(12.0 V)=60 \mu C

When the battery is disconnected, the charge on the capacitor remains unchanged. But the capacitance, C, also remains unchanged, since it only depends on the properties of the capacitor (area and distance between the plates), which do not change. Therefore, given the relationship

V=\frac{Q}{C}

and since neither Q nor C change, the voltage V remains the same, 12.0 V.

(b) (i) 24.0 V

In this case, the plate separation is doubled. Let's remind the formula for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor:

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 \epsilon_r A}{d}

where:

\epsilon_0 is the permittivity of free space

\epsilon_r is the relative permittivity of the material inside the capacitor

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

As we said, in this case the plate separation is doubled: d'=2d. This means that the capacitance is halved: C'=\frac{C}{2}. The new voltage across the plate is given by

V'=\frac{Q}{C'}

and since Q (the charge) does not change (the capacitor is now isolated, so the charge cannot flow anywhere), the new voltage is

V'=\frac{Q}{C'}=\frac{Q}{C/2}=2 \frac{Q}{C}=2V

So, the new voltage is

V'=2 (12.0 V)=24.0 V

(c) (ii) 3.0 V

The area of each plate of the capacitor is given by:

A=\pi r^2

where r is the radius of the plate. In this case, the radius is doubled: r'=2r. Therefore, the new area will be

A'=\pi (2r)^2 = 4 \pi r^2 = 4A

While the separation between the plate was unchanged (d); so, the new capacitance will be

C'=\frac{\epsilon_0 \epsilon_r A'}{d}=4\frac{\epsilon_0 \epsilon_r A}{d}=4C

So, the capacitance has increased by a factor 4; therefore, the new voltage is

V'=\frac{Q}{C'}=\frac{Q}{4C}=\frac{1}{4} \frac{Q}{C}=\frac{V}{4}

which means

V'=\frac{12.0 V}{4}=3.0 V

You are in a hot-air balloon that, relative to the ground, has a veloc- ity of 6.0 m/s in a direction due east. You see a hawk m
Ann [662]

Answer:

6.32 m/s 18.43° northeast

Explanation:

We express the velocity of hawk as:

v_{Hawk}=v_{balloon}+v_{HawkRelativetoBalloon}=6 x+2 y

We consider positive x towards east and positive y due north. So the magnitude is simply the square root of the square components:

|v_{hawk}|=\sqrt[]{6^2+2^2}=\sqrt{40}≈6.32 m/s

And the angle with respect to the east should be with:

arctan(\frac{2}{6} )=18.43 \°
