We can answer the problem by Snell's Law:

Snell's law<span> (also known as </span>Snell<span>–Descartes </span>law<span> and the </span>law<span> of refraction) is a formula used to describe the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction, when referring to light or other waves passing through a boundary between two different isotropic media, such as water, glass, or air.</span>

At what speed must a 0.6 kg stone be thrown in order that it has a relativistic mass of 0.76 kg? (c = 3.00 x 10^8 m/s) (A) 0.39
exis [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Relativistic Mass of the stone, m₀ = 0.6

Mass, m=0.76\ kg

Relativistic mass is given by :

m=\dfrac{m_o}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}.........(1)

Where

c is the speed of light

On rearranging equation (1) we get :

v^2=c^2(1-(\dfrac{m_o}{m})^2)

v=c\sqrt{ (1-(\dfrac{m_o}{m})^2)}

v=c\sqrt{ (1-(\dfrac{0.6}{0.76})^2)}

v = 0.61378 c

or

v = 0.6138 c

So, the correct option is (c). Hence, this is the required solution.

2. A common physics experiment involves lowering an open tube into a cylinder of water and moving the tube up and down to adjust
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Explanation:

This question pertains to resonance in air column.  It is the case of closed air column in which fundamental note is formed at a length which is as follows

l = λ / 4 where l is length of tube and λ is wave length.

here l = .26 m

λ = .26 x 4 = 1.04 m

frequency of sound = 330 Hz

velocity of sound = frequency x wave length

= 330 x 1.04

= 343.2 m /s

b )

Next overtone will be produced at 3 times the length

so next length of air column = 3 x 26

= 78 cm

c )

If frequency of sound = 256 Hz

wavelength = velocity / frequency

= 343.2 / 256

= 1.34 m

= 134 cm

length of air column for resonance

= wavelength / 4

134/4

= 33.5 cm

When a tiny stream forms during rainfall carrying away some soil and plants and leaving a scar.
ozzi

Answer:  Streams and rivers are integral parts of the landscape that carry water and sediment from high elevations to downstream lakes, estuaries, and oceans. The land area draining to a stream or river is defined as its watershed. When rain falls in a watershed, it either runs off the land surface, infiltrates into the soil, or evaporates.
