When energy is transferred between substances what happens to their temperatures?

Scientists use laser range-finding to measure the distance to the moon with great accuracy. a brief laser pulse is fired at the moon, then the time interval is measured until the "echo" is seen by a telescope. a laser beam spreads out as it travels because it diffracts through a circular exit as it leaves the laser. in order for the reflected light to be bright enough to detect, the laser spot on the moon must be no more than 1.0 km in diameter. staying within this diameter is accomplished by using a special large-diameter laser. part a if λ = 540nm , what is the minimum diameter of the circular opening from which the laser beam emerges? the earth-moon distance is 384,000 km. express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

An object with a mass of 1.5 kg changes its velocity from + 15 m/s to +22 m/s during a time interval of 3.5 seconds. what impulse was delivered to the objects?

1. when conducting a test on what kind of music increases the growth of plants, all of the following would fail to meet to fair test standard except (1 point) using different kinds of plants. giving some plants more water than others. exposing the plants to different types of music. using nutrient-rich soil for one and lesser soil for others. 2. engineering uses scientific thinking to solve real-world problems. (1 point) true false 3. what does it mean to test a hypothesis? (1 point) pass a quiz on other scientists’ results analyze only the results from scientific sources not make assumptions about how an experiment will turn out see if the results of an experiment are what the scientist predicted
