Answer:
A. Materials with a low index of refraction cause light to refract very little.
Archimedes principle states
that
F1 / A1 = F2 / A2
F2 = (A2 / A1) * F1
Also, formula for the force is
F = mg. Formula for the area of the cylinder is A = πr^2, therefore we get
F2 = (πr2^2 / πr1^2) * mg
Since the diameter of the
cylinders are 2 cm and 24 cm, r1 = 12 and r2 = 1.
Substituting the values to the
derived equation, we get
F2 = (π 1^2 / π 12^2) * 2400 * 9.8
F2 = 163.3333 N

Answer:
an increase in gasses that absorb heat
Explanation:
Greenhouse effect refers to the gradual increase in the earth's temperature due to an increase in the concentration of certain gases in the atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases and they include; water vapour, nitrogen 1 oxide, carbon IV oxide etc. Green house effect is said to occur when heat radiating outwards from the earth surface towards space is trapped close to the earth's surface due to the presence of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Greenhouse effect leads to increase in the temperature of the earth, melting of polar ice caps and possibly flooding due to a rise in sea levels.
Greenhouse gases act as glass in a greenhouse. They allow heat to pass through onto the earth surface but trap the heat and prevent it from being radiated outwards back to space. Thereby increasing the surface temperature of the earth.
Answer:
1.56 m/s
Explanation:
For East direction, the 6 blocks is equivalent to 6*100=600 m
For West direction, 8 blocks is equivalent to 8*100=800 m
Speed is given by s=d/t where s is speed, d is distance covered and t is time taken
Total distance is 600+800=1400m
Time taken is 15 mins, converted to seconds will be 15*60=900 s
Speed, s=1400/900=1.5555555555555 m/s rounded off as 1.56 m/s
