Answer:The speed if hailstone dependly largely on its size. A hailstone with a diameter of 0.39 inches,falls wit a speed of 20mph while a hailstone with 3.1 inches in diameter falls at a speed of 110mph.
No speed does not depend on the distance that the hailstone falls.
Explanation: There are other factors that affect the speed of the falling hailstone apart from its size.They are:
1. Friction between the air and the hailstone
2. Wind condition( windy or moist air)
3. The rate at which it melts falling.
Answer:
D. the amount of chemical energy equals the amount of heat and light energy.
Explanation:
Given that the first law of thermodynamics affirmed that energy is neither created nor destroyed however, it can be transformed from one form to another. In other words, while, during the transformation of energy, no energy is lost, the input energy is also equal to output energy.
Hence, the chemical energy stored in the log is EQUAL to the heat and light energy produced by burning.
Answer:
-450 m/s
Explanation:
Momentum is conserved.
p₀ = p
0 = (1.5 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (0.005 kg) v
v = -450 m/s

Answer:
The longest wavelength in vacuum for which there is constructive interference for the reflected light, λ = 3472.
Explanation:
Refractive index of Glass (given) = 1.5
For the case of a constructive interference,
2nt = (m + 1/2) λ
For case 1,
2nt = (m + 1/2) 496 nm
For case 2,
2nt = (m +1+ 1/2) 386 nm
2nt = (m+3/2) * 386 nm
(m + 1/2) 496 nm = (m+3/2) * 386 nm
m = 3
Inserting the value of m in 1.
2nt = (m + 1/2) 496 nm
2*1.5t = (3 + 1/2) * 496 nm
t = ((3 + 1/2) * 496 nm)/ 3
t = 578.6 nm
The thickness of the glass, t = 578.6 nm
b)
It is generally known that for constructive interference,
2nt = (m + 1/2) λ
λ = 2nt / ((m + 1/2))
For Longest Wavelength, m = 0
λ = 2*1.5*578.6/ (1/2)
λ = 3472 nm
