Explanation :

Light shows many different types of phenomena like the reflection of light, refraction of light etc.

Refraction of light is the phenomena of bending of light when it passes from one medium to another. This is due to the difference in the refractive indices of two media.

Refractive index is given by :

n=\dfrac{c}{v}

c is the speed of light in vacuum

v is the speed of the light in a medium.

So, refraction occurs when a wave changes its speed.

Hence, the correct option is (D) "speed".

A 2kg mass is moving at 3m/s. What is its kinetic energy?
Illusion [34]
<h2><u>KINETIC ENERGY</u></h2>

<h3>Problem:</h3>

» A 2kg mass is moving at 3m/s. What is its kinetic energy?

<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • \color{hotpink} \bold{9 \: J} \\

— — — — — — — — — —

<h3>Formula:</h3>

To calculate the velocity of a kinetic energy, we can use formula

  • \underline{ \boxed{  \tt KE =  \frac{1}{2} m{v}^{2}  } }

where,

  • v is the velocity in m/s
  • KE is the kinetic energy in J (joules)
  • m is the mass in kg

— — —

Based on the problem, the givens are:

  • KE (Kinetic energy) = ? (unknown)
  • m (mass) = 2 kg
  • v (velocity) = 3 m/s

<h3>Solution:</h3>

To get the velocity, substitute the givens in the formula above then solve.

\:   \: \tt KE =  \frac{1}{2} m{v}^{2}   \\ \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \: \tt \:   KE =  \frac{1}{2} \times  2 \times {(3)}^{2}  \\ \tt  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  KE =  \frac{1}{2}  \times(2\times 9) \\ \tt  KE =  \underline{ \boxed{ \blue{ \tt9 \: J}}}

Therefore, the kinetic energy is 9 Joules.

If the mass of an object is 44 kilograms and its velocity is 10 meters per second east, how much Kinetic Energy does it have?
aksik [14]

Answer: 2200J

Explanation:

M = 44kg

V = 10m/s

K.E =?

K.E = 1/2MV2 = 1/2 x 44 x (10)^2

K.E = 22 x 100

K.E = 2200J

the base of a rectangular vessel measure 10m by 18cm. water is poured into a depth of 4cm. (a) what is the pressure on the base?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a) P =392.4[Pa]; b) F = 706.32[N]

Explanation:

With the input data of the problem we can calculate the area of the tank base

L = length = 10[m]

W = width = 18[cm] = 0.18[m]

A = W * L = 0.18*10

A = 1.8[m^2]

a)

Pressure can be calculated by knowing the density of the water and the height of the water column within the tank which is equal to h:

P = density * g *h

where:

density = 1000[kg/m^3]

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

h = heigth = 4[cm] = 0.04[m]

P = 1000*9.81*0.04

P = 392.4[Pa]

The force can be easily calculated knowing the relationship between pressure and force:

P = F/A

F = P*A

F = 392.4*1.8

F = 706.32[N]
