Answer:

The motorist average speed for the trip is 88 km/h

Explanation:

In order to know her average speed, we have to refer to the following ecuation:

<V> (average speed) = \frac{Vfinal+Vinital}{2}

So, according to that, we know that the motorist has been having a speed of 80km/h during 3 hours, and a speed of 100 km/h during 2 hours. It means that her speed during all the travel is 5 hours.

Then, we have to affect the 5 hours to the inicial and final speed as follows:

First, at 80 km/h, she travels during 2 hours so:

3h*80km/h= 240 km

And then, at 100 km/h:

2h*100km/h= 200 km

Which leads us to:

initial speed: 240 km/ 5 h= 48 km/h

and final speed of: 200 km/ 5 h= 40 km/h

Then, the average speed is:

<V> = 48 km/h + 40 km/h = 88 km/h

3x80=240
2x100=200
240+200/5=88 k/hr

son4ous [18]

Answer:

<h2>35</h2>

Explanation:

According to snell's law which states that the ratio of the sin of incidence (i) to the angle of refraction(n) is a constant for a given pair of media.

sini/sinr = n

n is the constant = refractive index

Since the diver shines light up to the surface of a flat glass-bottomed boat, the refractive index n = nw/ng

nw is the refractive index of water and ng is that of glass

sini/sinr = nw/ng

given i = 30°, nw = 1.33, ng = 1.5, r = angle the light leave the glass

On substitution;

sin 30/sinr = 1.33/1.5

1.5sin30 = 1.33sinr

sinr = 1.5sin30/1.33

sinr = 0.75/1.33

sinr = 0.5639

r = arcsin0.5639

r ≈35°

angle the light leave the glass is 35°
