Answer:
Well the definition of an application is the act of putting to a special use or purpose so lam assuming that you want specific uses that scientists make of gravity in their work.
Well our first application has helped us to send satellites around the solar system with what Nasa calls gravity assist. Using a particular planets gravity to slingshot a satellite to another destination. Look it up.
The next application much simpler but here on Earth. There are many hydro-electric power stations in use all over the world. Water is stored at a high level and released falling 100s of metres to a turbine where it generates electricity.
Hope that helps.

Answer:
1.64 * 10^(-5) m
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Angular separation, θ = 0.018 rad
Wavelength, λ = 589 nm = 5.89 * 10^(-7) m
The angular separation when there are 2 slots is given as
θ = λ/2d
where d = separation between slits
d = λ/2θ
d = (589 * 10^(-9))/(2 * 0.018)
d = 1.64 * 10^(-5) m
Answer:
I'm taking a wild guess at c
Explanation:
c. winter solstice
The study of motion is called kinematics.
Answer:
b. The reflection of light from a smooth surface is called specular reflection.
c. The reflection of light from a rough surface is called diffuse reflection.
Explanation:
a. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection only when a ray of light strikes a plane mirror.
This is wrong: Based on law of reflection "The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection when light strikes any plane surface" examples plane mirrors, still waters, plane tables, etc
b. The reflection of light from a smooth surface is called specular reflection.
This is correct
c. The reflection of light from a rough surface is called diffuse reflection.
This is correct
d. For diffuse reflection, the angle of incidence is greater than the angle of reflection.
This is wrong: the angle of incident is equal to angle of reflection. The only difference between this type of reflection and specular reflection, is that the normal for diffuse reflection is not parallel to each due to the rough surface in which the light incidents.
For specular reflection, the angle of incidence is less than the angle of reflection.
This is wrong: the angle of incident is equal to angle of reflection
