It is correct to state that if you are looking at the sky from the continental United States, the north celestial pole would have an angular height (an altitude) equal to your latitude.

<h3>What is the North Celestial Pole?</h3>

The point at where the earth's extended axis intersects the northern half of the celestial sphere, around 1° from Polaris.

These dots trace out circles in the sky due to precession. Today, the north celestial pole is only 1° from Polaris. Around 2100 ce, it will be closest to Polaris.

the car starts from a stop to travel 1100 meters in 14 seconds. it is clocked at 65 m/s at point k. find its average speed and a
inysia [295]

Answer:

The average velocity of the car is, V = 74.04 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The initial velocity of the car, u = 0 m/s

The displacement of the ca, S = 1100 m

The time period of travel, t = 14 s

The velocity of the car at point k, v = 65 m/s

Using the II equation of motion,

                      S = ut + ½  at²

Substituting the given values,

                      1100 = 0 + ½ x a x 14²

                          a = 11.22 m/s²

Using the III equation of motion

                         v² = u² + 2 as

                          v = √(2as)              (∵ u = 0)

Substituting,

                           v = √(2 x 11.22 x 1100)

                              = 157.11 m/s

The average speed of the car,

                        V=\frac{0+65+157.11}{3}

                        V = 74.04 m/s

Hence, the average velocity of the car is, V = 74.04 m/s

How do the amplitudes of a 120 decibel sound and a 100-decibel sound compare?​
NemiM [27]
The 120 decibel sound has more amplitude than the 100 decibel sound.

In Physics, the relation between amplitude and intensity is that the intensity of the wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.

When light propagates through two adjacent materials that have different optical properties, some interesting phenomena occur at
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

First, the different indices of refraction must be taken into account (in different media): for example, the refractive index of light in a vacuum is 1 (since vacuum = c).  The value of the refractive index of the medium is a measure of its "optical density":  Light spreads at maximum speed in a vacuum but slower in others  transparent media; therefore in all of them n> 1. Examples of typical values ​​of  are those of air (1,0003), water (1.33), glass (1.46 - 1.66) or diamond (2.42).

The refractive index has a maximum value and a minimum value, which we can calculate the minimum value by means of the following explanation:

The limit or minimum angle, α lim, is defined as the angle of refraction from which  the refracted ray disappears and all the light is reflected. As in the maximum value of  angle of refraction, from which everything is reflected, is βmax = 90º, we can  know the limit angle (the minimum angle that we would have to have to know the minimum index of refraction) by Snell's law:

 βmax = 90º ⇒ n 1x sin α (lim) = n 2 ⇒ sin α lim = n 2 / n 1

Explanation:

When a light ray strikes the separation surface between two media  different, the incident beam is divided into three: the most intense penetrates the second  half forming the refracted ray, another is reflected on the surface and the third is  breaks down into numerous weak beams emerging from the point of incidence in  all directions, forming a set of stray light beams.
