Why can you see you r reflection on a smooth pond but not on a rushing river

Physics
1 answer:
kolezko [41]3 years ago

<span>because A rough surface, such as this rippling pond, causes light rays to bounce off it in many different directions. It may still be possible to make out an image on the surface, or, if it is very rough, the image is very broken up. Most objects reflect light in this irregular way. Although we can see them, we cannot see any images reflected in their surfaces.</span>

sergey [27]

The options are missing and they are;

A) the electric force increases because the balloon loses its charge.

B) the electric force increases because the distance increases.

C) the electric force decreases because the distance increases.

D) the electric force decreases because his hair loses its charge.

Answer:

Correct answer is option C - the electric force decreases because the distance increases.

Explanation:

The formula for electric force is;

F = k•q1•q2/r²

Where;

K is coulombs constant

q1 and q2 are particle charges

r is distance

So,looking at the formula given earlier, if we increase the distance, the denominator will increase and thus the Force will decrease.

So the correct option is option C
