Answer:

formal operational

Explanation:

The Formal operational thinking has tested experiments using the pendulum. The method involved three factors (variables) the length of the string, the weight of the object and the force or impulse that is printed on it. The task was to find out which factor is most important to determine the swing speed of the pendulum. Children who have already reached the formal operational stage solve the task systematically, testing one variable at a time.

Kitty [74]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the bag, u = 7.3 m/s

Height above ground, s = 24 m

We need to find the speed of the bag just before it reaches the ground. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as :

$v^2=u^2+2as$

$v^2=(7.3)^2+2\times 9.8\times 24$

$v=\sqrt{523.69}$

v = 22.88 m/s

So, the speed of the bag just before it reaches the ground is 22.38 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

А A pool of water of refractive index

babymother [125]

Answer:

Apparent depth = 45 cm

Explanation:

The refractive index of water in a pool, n = 4/3

Real depth, d = 60 cm

We need to find its apparent depth when viewed vertically through air. The ratio of real depth to the apparent depth is equal to the refractive index of the material. Let the apparent depth is d'. So,

$n=\dfrac{d}{d'}\\\\d'=\dfrac{d}{n}\\\\d'=\dfrac{60}{\dfrac{4}{3}}\\\\d'=45\ cm$
