5. Bill is swimming and drops his swim goggles in the pool. He looks from above the top of the water to see where they fell and

positions himself directly above the goggles. He dives down to the bottom of the pool with his eyes closed so that the chlorine doesn't burn his eyes. He tries several times to retrieve his goggles but comes up empty handed each time. Which interaction of light is distorting the image of where his goggles appear to be?

The interaction of light that distorted the image of where Bill's goggles appear to be is Refraction.

<h3>What happens to the speed of light when it hits water in a swimming pool?</h3>

The light slows down when it passes from the less dense air into the water, this slow down of the ray of light which  causes the ray of light to change direction and then the changes the speed of the light that causes refraction.

The swimming pool appears shallow than it appear to be  because the rays of light coming from the bottom of the swimming pool that is refracted by the water making the height of the swimming pool to be above the actual swimming pool bed and there by misleading the observer(Bill).

The pilot of an airplane traveling 45 m/s wants to drop supplies to flood victims isolated on a patch of land 160 m below. The s
Sidana [21]

Answer:

<h2>254.56 m</h2>

Explanation:

       A object dropped from a plane from a certain height will follow a parabolic trajectory because it has a horizontal velocity equal to plane's velocity.

       So, if supplies are to be dropped from a plane from a height of 160 m, let us calculate the time it takes to reach the ground.

       H=\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}\\160=\frac{1}{2}\times10\times t^{2}\\t=\sqrt{32}=4\sqrt{2}\text{ }sec

       So, in this time, the supply moves a horizontal distance of (4\sqrt{2}\text{ }sec)\times(45\text{ }\frac{m}{sec})=180\sqrt{2}\text{ }m=254.56\text{ }m.

∴ The supply must be dropped when the plane is 255 m away.

If an object is floating in water does that mean that the weight is zero?
gayaneshka [121]
Nope. It means that the density of the object is less than the density of the water it's in, making it float. Conversely, if the density of an object is greater than the density of the water it's in, then the object will sink. :)

At a distance r1 from a point charge, the magnitude of the electric field created by the charge is 395 N/C. At a distance r2 fro
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

r₂/r₁ = 1.82

Explanation:

The electric field due to a point charge, has the following expression:

E =\frac{k*q}{r^{2}}

For a distance r₁, the magnitude of the electric field is 395 N/C, so we can solve for r₁², as follows:

r₁² = \frac{k*q}{395 N/C} } (1)

For a distance r2, the magnitude of the electric field is 119 N/C, so we can solve for r₂², as follows:

r₂² = \frac{k*q}{119 N/C} }

We can find the quotient r₂/r₁, from (1) and (2):

r₂/r₁ =\sqrt{395/119} = 1.82
