Physics

According to Wien’s displacement law, when the temperature of a blackbody radiator increases, the overall radiated energy increases. Wavelength of maximum emission from a blackbody is inversely proportional to its temperature. Shorter-wavelength (higher-frequency) light corresponds to higher-energy photons.

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over time._x000D_ Since in this case there is no change, there is no acceleration, so it is zero.

Convection transfers heat vertically into the atmosphere. In order for heat to be transferred to other regions, it must be transferred horizontally by the wind. The horizontal transfer of heat by the wind is called advection. Advection is a transport mechanism of a substance or conserved property by a fluid due to the fluid’s bulk motion. An example of advection is the transport of pollutants or silt in a river by bulk water flow downstream.

The wavelength of a wave is the distance between Crest and Crest or Trough and Trough.

On a rainy day, small oil films on water show brilliant colours. This is due to Interference. Interference is a phenomenon in which two waves superimpose to form a resultant wave of greater, lower or same amplitude.

Bicycle is an example of compound machine. A compound machine is a combination of two or more simple machines.

A photocell converts light energy into electrical energy.

Galileo attempted to record the time between lantern signals but was unsuccessful because the distance involved was too small and light simply moved too fast to be measured this way. Around 1676, Danish astronomer Ole Romer became the first person to prove that light travels at a finite speed.

If r1 is the density of the lead piece of volume v, the volume of water displaced by the ice block and the lead piece while floating is Vw = (V–v) r1 + v r1. When the ice melts, the lead piece sinks in water since r1 is greater than the density of water. The water produced by the melted ice has the volume (V-v) r1 and the volume displaced by the lead piece is v. So, the total volume of the water produced by ice and that displaced by the lead piece is V w1 = (V–v) r1+ v r1< V w. So, the water level goes down.
