<span>The area will be the square of the quotient of the amounts for each telescope. Comparing the two microscopes, the 8-meter model is 4 times larger than the 2-meter model. Squaring this value gives a ratio of 16 times the amount of visual area for the larger telescope.</span>

Pavel [41]

Answer:

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

Explanation:

You are camping in the breathtaking mountains if Colorado. You spy an unopened diet soda can floating motionless below the surface of a lake. What is the direction and amount of force the water exerts on it?

A. Zero

B. Down, equal to the can's weight

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

D. Not enough information is given

from the principle of flotation which states that a

When a body displaces a weight of water equal to its own weight, it floats. : A floating object displaces a weight of fluid equal to its own weight. ... Archimedes' principle equates the buoyant force to the weight of the fluid displaced.

the upthrust (this is the upward vertical force exerted on an object in fluid)in the water equals the weight of the body in water it floats.

A pelican flying along a horizontal path drops
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The initial speed of the pelican is 8.81 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

height of the pelican, h = 5.0 m

horizontal distance, X = 8.9 m

The time of flight is given by;

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2*5}{9.81} } \\\\t = 1.01 \ s

The initial horizontal speed of the pelican is given by;

X = vₓt

vₓ = X / t

vₓ = 8.9 / 1.01

vₓ = 8.81 m/s

Therefore, the initial speed of the pelican is 8.81 m/s.
