For spring break, you decide to leave town via airplane. shortly after the airplane leaves the ground, you experience some turbulence, and your small, heavy, suitcase falls from the back of the plane. the instant the suitcase falls out of the plane, its velocity is 90 m/s in the horizontal direction and it is 50m above the ground. neglect air resistance on the suitcase as it falls.(a)- how long does it take for the suitcase to hit ground? (b)-how far does the suitcase travel horizontally before it lands? (c)what is the velocity of the suitcase when it lands? (d)if there is a 3m tall light pole 281.5m from the horizontal position that the suitcase left the plane, will the suitcase hit the light pole? if yes, how far up the light pole does the suitcase hit? if no, how far above the light pole does the suitcase pass by? 1 (e)considering the system as the earth and the suitcase, complete the work-energy diagram below for the system for the time of the fall. (f)considering the system as the just the suitcase, complete the work-energy diagram below for the system for the time of the fall.

scattering of light by tiny particles in air to produce the colors we see on sky, is dependent on the following factors:

(i) wavelength of light

(ii) size of the scattering particle  

(iii) distance traveled by light through the atmosphere.

according to rayleigh's law of scattering, the amount of scattering is inversely proportional to the fourth power of its wavelength. shorter the wavelength, greater is its scattering. hence violet/blue light is scattered more than red.

sun's light is a composite light ( visible light) with wavelengths in the range 400 nm (violet) to 700 nm (red). as sunlight passes through our atmosphere, the molecules of air scatter light according to their wavelengths. during sunrise and sunset, the sun's position is below the horizon. hence light from the sun travels a greater distance in the atmosphere when compared to its position a noon.

as sunlight enters the earth's atmosphere, blue light is scattered away and at the end of its journey in the sky, only red and orange wavelengths remain in the beam.

hence at sunrise and sunset, the sky appears reddish orange.

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
