Refraction is caused by any wave crossing the boundary out of one substance and into another one. The two different substances may be no more than two parcels of air at different temperatures.

Approximately where is it currently high tide on Earth? Group of answer choices wherever it is currently noon anywhere that ocea
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Option D, only on the portion of the Earth facing directly toward the Moon

Explanation:

Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of moon. The part of earth that faces the moon experiences the highest gravitational force and hence the high tides will occur in this regions only. The regions that do not faces the moon experiences low tides. It is the gravity of moon that attracts the ocean water towards itself.

Hence, Option D is correct

On a horizontal frictionless surface, a small block with mass 0.200 kg has a collision with a block of mass 0.400 kg. Immediatel
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:48.2 Joules

Explanation:

Given

two masses of 0.2 kg and 0.4 kg collide with each other

after collision 0.2 kg deflect 30 north of east and 0.4 kg deflects 53.1 south of east

Velocity of 0.2 kg mass is

v_{0.2}=12\cos (30)\hat{i}+12\sin (30)\hat{j}

|v_{0.2}|=11.99 m/s\approx 12 m/s

Velocity of 0.4 kg mass

v_{0.4}=13\cos (53.1)\hat{i}-12\sin (53.1)\hat{j}

|v_{0.4}|=12.99 m/s\approx 13 m/s

Thus total Kinetic energy =\frac{0.2\times 12^2}{2}+\frac{0.4\times 13^2}{2}

Kinetic energy=48.2 J

A player at first base catches a throw traveling 38 m/s. The baseball, which has a mass of 0.145 kg, comes to a complete stop in
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

F = 39.36 N

Explanation:

given,

initial speed, u = 38 m/s

final speed, v = 0 m/s

mass of ball = 0.145 Kg

time, t = 0.14 s

Force = ?

using impulse formula

J = change in momentum

J = F x t

m(v - u) = F x t

0.145 x (0 - (-38)) = F x 0.14

F x 0.14 = 5.51

F = 39.36 N

force exerted by the ball is equal to 39.36 N.

The Earth orbits the sun with a speed of about 67000 miles per hour. If the Earth was to suddenly stop, it would
kozerog [31]

Answer: It would destroy the Earth's surface.

I remember reading this questions in What If? by Randall Munroe. Great book, I suggest you check it out. Anyway, the answer. The Earth is revolving as well as spinning on its axis at the same time. This  basically means that thee atmosphere is also spinning at the same speed. But due to the frame of reference, we don't notice anything. If the Earth suddenly stops spinning, then the atmosphere, going according to the first law of motion will still be spinning at the same speed. This would produce supersonic winds at such a scale that it will be compared to an atomic explosion. Anything not in a nuclear bunker will probably be ripped apart by the force of the wind.
