Answer:
Mirages happen when the ground is very hot and the air is cool.
Explanation:
They happen when light passes through two layers of air with different temperatures. The desert sun heats the sand, which in turn heats the air just above it. The hot air bends light rays and reflects the sky.
When you see it from a distance, the different air masses colliding with each other act as a mirror.
Answer:
d=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm
Explanation:
Given data
m (Mass)=3.0 kg
α(incline) =34°
Spring Constant (force constant)=120 N/m
d (distance)=?
Solution
F=mg
F=(3.0)(9.8)
F=29.4 N
As we also know that
Force parallel to the incline=FSinα
F=29.4×Sin(34)
F=16.44 N
d(distance)=F/Spring Constant
d(distance)=16.44/120
d(distance)=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm
It will sink because mass does not affect the physical properties of the object.
