An iron nails sinks in water,while a large ship floats on the surfacr of water

I don't exactly understand the substance of the question so im going to assume that the answer you are looking for is buoyancy. Buoyancy determines whether something sinks or floats in water. A ship has a larger buoyancy due to the shape of the hull, a nail is does not and will sink.

A person driving her car at 48 km/h approaches an intersection just as the traffic light turns yellow. She knows that the yellow

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

She must stop the car before interception, distance traveled 12.66 m

Explanation:

We will take all units to the SI system

Vo = 48Km / h (1000m / 1Km) (1h / 3600s) = 13.33 m / s

V2 = 70 Km / h = 19.44 m / s

We calculate the distance traveled before stopping

X = Vo t + ½ to t²

Time is what it takes traffic light to turn red is t = 2.0 s

X = 13.33 2 + 1.2 (-7) 2²

X = 12.66 m

It stops car before reaching the traffic light turning to red

Let's analyze what happens if you accelerate, let's calculate the acceleration of the vehicle

V2 = Vo + a t2

a = (V2-Vo) / t2

a = (19.44-13.33) /6.6

a = 0.926 m / s2

This is the acceleration to try to pass the interception, now let's calculate the distance it travels in the time the traffic light changes from yellow to red (t = 2.0 s)

X = Vo t + ½ to t²

X = 13.33 2 + ½ 0.926 2²

X = 28.58 m

Since the vehicle was 30 m away, the interception does not happen

Light bending at a boundary is caused by differences in the speed of light in different materials. The greater the difference in

olasank [31]

Answer:

How much does light bend? When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.

Marta_Voda [28]

You find yourself in a place that is unimaginably hot and dense. A rapidly changing gravitational field randomly warps space and time. Gripped by these huge fluctuations, you notice that there is but a single, unified force governing the universe, you are in the early universe before the Planck time.

<h3>What is Planck time?</h3>

The Planck time is approximately 10^-44 seconds. The smallest time interval, or "zeptosecond," that has so far been measured is 10^-21 seconds. A photon traveling at the speed of light would need one Planck time to traverse a distance of one Planck length.

<h3>What is Planck length?</h3>

Planck units are a set of measuring units used only in particle physics and physical cosmology. They are defined in terms of four universal physical constants in such a way that when expressed in terms of these units, these physical constants have the numerical value 1. These units are a system of natural units because its definition is based on characteristics of nature, more especially the characteristics of free space, rather than a selection of prototype object, as was the case with Max Planck's original 1899 proposal. They are pertinent to the study of unifying theories like quantum gravity.

4. Una cuerda de acero de piano mide 1.60 m de longitud y 0.20 cm de diámetro. ¿Cuál es la tensión en la cuerda si se estira 0.2

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$1030.83\ \text{N}$

Explanation:

$\Delta L$ = Cambio en la longitud de la cuerda = 0.25 cm

T = tensión en cuerda

A = Área de la cadena = $\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2$

d = Diámetro de la cuerda = 0.2 cm

L = Longitud original de la cuerda = 1.6 m

El cambio de longitud de una cuerda viene dado por

$\Delta L=\dfrac{TL}{AE}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{\Delta LAE}{L}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{0.25\times 10^{-2}\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}(0.2\times 10^{-2})^2\times 210\times 10^9}{1.6}\\\Rightarrow T=1030.84\ \text{N}$

La tensión en la cuerda es $1030.84\ \text{N}$ .
