Squid use jet propulsion for rapid escapes. A squid pulls water into its body and then rapidly ejects the water backward to prop

el itself forward. A 1.5 kg squid (not including water mass) can accelerate at 20 m/s2 by ejecting 0.15 kg of water.?

An applied force of 50 N is used to accelerate an object, that weighs 73 N, to the right across a frictional surface. The object
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

5.38 m/s^2

Explanation:

NET force causing the object to accelerate  =  50 -10 = 40 N

Mass of the object =  73 N / 9.81 m/s^2 = 7.44 kg

F = ma

40 = 7.44 * a         a = 5.38 m/s^2

Light propagate faster through medium “a” than medium “b”
dangina [55]

1) Medium "b" has more optical density

2) Light must hit the interface between the two mediums perpendicularly

Explanation:

1)

Refraction occurs when light propagates from a medium into a second medium.

The optical density of a medium is given by its index of refraction, which is defined as:

n=\frac{c}{v}

where

c is the speed of light in a vacuum

v is the speed of light in a medium

Higher index of refraction means higher optical density, and light propagater slower into a medium with higher optical density.

In this problem, light propagates faster through medium "a" than medium "b": this means that medium "a" has lower refractive index of medium "b", and so "b" has more optical density.

2)

We can answer this part by referring to Snell's law, which gives the relationship between the direction of the incident ray and of the refracted ray when light passes through the interface between two media:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n_1, n_2 are the index of refraction of the two mediums

\theta_1, \theta_2 are the angle of incidence and of refraction (the angle that light makes with the normal to the surface in medium 1 and medium 2)

Here we want the direction of propagation of the light ray not to change: this means that it must be

sin \theta_1 = sin \theta_2 (1)

However, here we have two mediums "a" and "b" with different index of refraction, so

n_1\neq n_2

Therefore the only angle that can satisfy eq.(1) is

\theta_1 = \theta_2 = 0

So, the light must hit the surface perpendicular to the interface between the two mediums.

Explore the role of friction when creating safety ramps and escalators. "Why is it important for people and object to move slowl
faust18 [17]

The role of friction is of great importance when creating safety ramps and escalators because with the help of friction things move.

<h3>Why is it important to move objects slowly on ramps and escalator?</h3>

It is important to move objects slowly on ramps and escalator because the ramps and escalator moves object in the opposite direction of gravity. If we did not move objects slowly, then the objects or a person get damaged.

So we can conclude that the role of friction is of great importance when creating safety ramps and escalators because with the help of friction things move.
