A light ray bounces off a fish in your aquarium. It travels
through the water, into the glass side of the aquarium, and
then into air. As the light from the glass hits the air, the index of
refraction for air is much
than the index of refraction
for glass which causes the light to bend toward the angle that it
entered the air.

Answers

Answer:

Correct

Explanation:

Because the light can't travel as quickly in the water as it does in the air, the light bends around the pencil, causing it to look bent in the water. Basically, the light refraction gives the pencil a slight magnifying effect, which makes the angle appear bigger than it actually is, causing the pencil to look crooked.

3.- Un barco que tiene el motor averiado es ayudado por dos remolcadores para entrar en el puerto. Cada uno de ellos tira de él con una fuerza de 10000 N y ambas forman un ángulo de 60o. Calcula el módulo de la fuerza neta que actúa sobre el barco.

Answers

Answer:

F_total = 10000 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we use that the force is a vector and the best way to do the sum is that since the two tugs pull the boat with the same intensity and angle, the sum of the component of the force perpendicular to the movement becomes zero.

The components parallel to the movement of the tugs is

            ∑ F = 2 Fcos θ

let's calculate

           F_total = 2 10000 cos 60

           F_total = 10000 N

Roark saw Alejandro sitting by himself in the quad and leaning over, with his head resting on the heels of his hands. Roark approached him and said, "Hey Alejandro, you look sad." Alejandro responded, "Huh? No, I'm just thinking." Which difficulty in interpreting nonverbal behavior does this exchange exemplify?


A. Nonverbal messages are often ambiguous.

B. Nonverbal messages are continuous.

C. Nonverbal cues are multichanneled.

D. Nonverbal interpretation is culture-based.

Answers

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Nonverbal communications are ambiguous because some times the face expressions (non verbal signals – Sad face or sitting alone gesture of Alejandro) and the verbal signals (communication between Roark and Alejandro) do not match or contradict each other. Some people prefer to believe on their interpretations of the nonverbal  signals as compared to that of the verbal signals

Hence, option A is correct.

Answers

Answer:

the Sun is a circle in the sky and that creates a penumbra

Explanation:

A penumbra is basically a lighter and hazy outer part of the shadow. It is the partially shaded portion of the outer region of a shadow that is cast by an opaque object.

In the context, as the distance from the hand to the surface of the ground increases on a sunny day, the shadow of the hand that falls on the ground becomes fuzzier because the sun is an opaque object in the sky and it creates a penumbra which makes the shadow of the hand on the ground fuzzier as the distance is increased.

When does the edge of the water advance farther inland- when the ocean's floor is a gradual slope or steep slope?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is when the slope is steep.

Explanation:

The advancement of water inland is dependent on the rate at which water wears off the continental shelf and the coastal plain. The higher the amount of rainfall, and the harshness of the dry spells, the faster the rate of erosion that occurs at the coastal plain.

As the erosion increases, the coastal plain becomes steeper. The steeper the plain, the water flowing erodes the coastal plain at a faster rate. Hence the water advances farther inland faster than where the slope is gentle or gradual.

in each of the following divide the second number by the first number and find the quotient:3/4,-3/8​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{-1}{2}[/tex]

Explanation:

We need to divide the second number by the first number and the numbers are 3/4,-3/8​.

First number = 3/4

Second number = -3/8

Dividing the second number by the first number.

So,

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{-3}{8}}{\dfrac{3}{4}}[/tex]

We know that,

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{a}{b}}{\dfrac{c}{d}}=\dfrac{a}{b}\times \dfrac{d}{c}[/tex]

So,

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{-3}{8}}{\dfrac{3}{4}}=\dfrac{-3}{8}\times \dfrac{4}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{-1}{2}[/tex]

So, the answer is (-1/2)

Technician A says that high-intensity discharge (HID) headlights are brighter and have a blue tint. Technician B says that one defective turn signal bulb can cause the turn signal on the affected side to stop blinking (flashing). Who is right?

a) technician A

b) technician B

c) both technicians A and B

d) neither technician A nor B

Answers

Answer:

The right option is;

d) Both technicians A and B

Explanation:

High-intensity discharge (HID) headlights is an electrical gas-discharge light that gives a very bright light when an arc is formed between the tungsten electrodes that have a transparent or translucent housing

The light is ideal for night driving due to its brightness and appear to have a bluish tint at night although the light produced by HID headlight is actually more similar to Sunlight around noon

A turn signal bulb is a flashing light indicator that shows that a vehicle is about to turn or change lanes

An issue with the wiring, a broken connection at the bulb socket or a burnt bulb can result in a condition of "no turn signal" in which the turn signal stops flashing or blinking. Therefore both technicians A and B are correct.

An Athelice complete :Round of a circular track of diameter 200m in base Distance travelled by athletes And displacement

Answers

Answer:

Distance = 1256 m

Displacement = 0

Explanation:

Distance :

Distance may be defined as the actual length between two points along its path.

It is a scalar quantity and its value can be positive or zero.

Displacement :

Displacement is defined as the shortest length between two point , i.e. between the initial point and the final point.

It is a vector quantity and it has values which can be either positive or negative or zero.

From the question, the diameter of the circular track is, r = 200 m

∴ Distance travelled by an athlete is = circumference of the circular track

                                                            = 2πr

                                                            = 2 x 3.14 x 200

                                                            = 1256 m

 Displacement = 0  (since the original point coincides with the final point).

If an object has a potential energy of 15 J and a kinetic energy of 20 J. What is the mechanical energy of the object?

Answers

Answer:

Mechanical energy = 35 Joules

Explanation:

Energy can be defined as the ability (capacity) to do work. The two (2) main types of energy are;

a. Potential energy (P.E): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

b. Kinetic energy (K.E): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Furthermore, the mechanical energy of a physical object or body is the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy possessed by the object or body.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Mechanical energy = P.E + K.E

Given the following data;

Potential energy = 15 J

Kinetic energy = 20 J

To find the mechanical energy;

Mechanical energy = P.E + K.E

Mechanical energy = 15 + 20

Mechanical energy = 35 Joules

Answer:

Mechanical energy = 35 Joules

A day on a distant planet observed orbiting a nearby star is 21.5 hr. Also, a year on the planet lasts 69.3 Earth days. In other words, for the purposes of unit conversion, there are 24 hr in a day, 60 min in an hour, and 60 s in a minute, as it would for astronomers on Earth observing the planet. Calculate the average angular speed of the planet about its own axis of rotation in radians per second, with the second as measured on Earth. what is the speed of rotation? Calculate the average angular speed of the planet as it travels around its neighboring star, with the second as measured on Earth. what is the speed of orbit?

Answers

Answer:

Part A

The angular speed of rotation of the plane is 8.11781 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s

Part B

The angular speed of orbit of the planet is 1.04938 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s

Explanation:

The parameters of the planet are;

The duration of a day on the distant planet = 21.5 hr.

The duration of a year on the distant planet = 69.3 Earth days

Part A

The duration of a day = The time to make one complete revolution of 2·π radians

∴ The average angular speed about its axis, [tex]\omega_{rotation}[/tex] = Angle turned/Time

∴ [tex]\omega_{rotation}[/tex]  = 2·π/(21.5 × 60 × 60) s ≈ 8.11781 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s

The average angular speed of the planet about its own axis, [tex]\omega_{rotation}[/tex]  = 8.11781 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s

The angular speed of rotation of the plane [tex]\omega_{rotation}[/tex]  = 8.11781 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s

Part B

The time it takes the planet to revolve round the neighboring star once = 69.3 Earth days

Therefore, the average angular speed of the planet around its neighboring star, [tex]\omega _{Star}[/tex], is given as follows;

[tex]\omega _{Orbit}[/tex]  = 2·π/((69.3 × 24 × 60 × 60) s) = 1.04938 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s

The average angular speed of orbit, [tex]\omega _{Orbit}[/tex] = 1.04938 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s

The angular speed of orbit of the planet, [tex]\omega _{Orbit}[/tex] = 1.04938 × 10⁻⁶ rad/s.
