Answer:

Structural adaptation

Explanation:

When any physical body part of an organism helps it in surviving, then this mechanism of survival is called a structural adaptation. For example short tail of penguins helps them in balancing on their heels and tails due to which they are able to reduce heat released from their feet. Thus, any physical parts of an organism that helps them in coping with the surrounding physical environment /predators are refereed to as a mode of structural adaptation.

3.00 m^3 of water is at 20.0°C.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

9m^3

Explanation:

Given data

volume v1= 3m^3

volume v2= ???

Temperature T1= 20.0°C.

Temperature T2= 60.0°C.

Applying the relation for temperature and volume

V1/T1= V2/T2

substitute

3/20= V2/60

3*60= V2*20

180= 20*V2

180/20= V2

V2= 9m^3

Hence the final volume is 9m^3

Light is incident along the normal to face AB of a glass prism of refractive index 1.54. Find αmax, the largest value the angle

marusya05 [52]

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to Snell's law.

Snell's law establishes that reflection is subject to

$n_1sin\theta_1 = n_2sin\theta_2$

Where,

$\theta =$ Angle between the normal surface at the point of contact

n = Indices of refraction for corresponding media

The total internal reflection would then be given by

$n_1 sin\theta_1 = n_2sin\theta_2$

$(1.54) sin\theta_1 = (1.33)sin(90)$

$sin\theta_1 = \frac{1.33}{1.54}$

$\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{1.33}{1.54})$

$\theta = 59.72\°$

Therefore the $\alpha_{max}$ would be equal to

$\alpha = 90\°-\theta$

$\alpha = 90-59.72$

$\alpha = 30.27\°$

Therefore the largest value of the angle α is 30.27°

A satellite is in a circular orbit about the earth (ME = 5.98 x 10^24 kg). The period of the satellite is 1.26 x 10^4 s. What is

Soloha48 [4]

Answer: $V=5839.051m/s$

Explanation:

According to the Third Kepler’s Law of Planetary motion:

$T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}$ (1)

Where;:

$T=1.26(10)^{4}s$ is the period of the satellite

$G$ is the Gravitational Constant and its value is $6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$

$M=5.98(10)^{24}kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$a$ is the semimajor axis of the orbit the satllite describes around the Earth (as we know it is a circular orbit, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit).
