Answer:

Perimeter = Add all of the side's lengths

Area = Multiply Length dimension and Width dimension together to get answer (different formulas for different shapes)

Explanation:

When we do perimeter, we're only taking the OUTSIDE line of the shape, we're not taking the inside body of the shape, so, to get the perimeter of a shape that has 4 sides, and the dimensions of 4 in 2 sides and 3 in 2 sides, then, we have to add like this... 4+4+3+3=14

So our perimeter of our <em>example</em> shape is 14

Now, when we are doing area, we're finding the INSIDE part of the shape, and to do that, we have to multiply. Let's take the same dimensions from our last example. If we have 4 in 2 sides and 3 in 2 sides, then we will do 4x3=12 to get our answer.

So our area of our <em>example</em> shape is 12

Planets A and B have the same size, mass, and direction of travel, but planet A is traveling through space at half the speed of

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

B. You would weigh the same on both planets because their masses and the distance to their centers of gravity are the same.

Explanation:

Given that Planets A and B have the same size, mass.

Let the masses of the planets A and B are $m_A$ and $m_B$ respectively.

As masses are equal, so $m_A=m_B\cdots(i)$ .

Similarly, let the radii of the planets A and B are $r_A$ and $r_B$ respectively.

As radii are equal, so $r_A=r_B\cdots(ii)$ .

Let my mass is m.

As the weight of any object on the planet is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the planet on the object.

So, my weight on planet A, $w_A= \frac {Gm_Am}{r_A^2}$

my weight of planet B, $w_B=\frac {Gm_Bm}{r_B^2}$

By using equations (i) and (ii),

$w_B=\frac {Gm_Am}{r_A^2}=w_A$ .

So, the weight on both planets is the same because their masses and the distance to their centers of gravity are the same.

Hence, option (B) is correct.

The critical angle for a light ray travelling from a ruby into ethyl alcohol is 50.6 degrees celsius. Determine the index of ref

stepan [7]

In order to answer this question, I realized that I needed to know the index
of refraction for ruby, so I went and looked it up. It's 1.762 to 1.770 .

I started trying to remember how to use this number and the critical angle
to find the index of refraction of the other medium. That's when I saw the
absurd unit "degrees celsius" for the critical angle, and I got discouraged.
But I perked up very quickly, when I realized that I'm still on the "index of
refraction" list, and while I'm there, I might as well just go ahead and
look up ethyl alcohol too.

It's 1.36 .
