I think it is "A'' 'It moves along straight lines in air and changes direction when it enters water.

The correct choice is

A. It moves along straight lines in air and changes direction when it enters water.

This is because of phenomenon of refraction which  a ray of light experience when it moves from one medium to another medium. The light ray bends away  from the normal to the surface if it travels from denser to rarer medium. The light ray bends towards from the normal to the surface if it travels from rarer to denser medium.

Answer:

E = 8.5 * 10^6 V/m

Explanation:

In general we have the following relation between the Electric Field and the Elecric Potential:

\int\limits^2_1 {\vec{E} \cdot\vec{dl}} = V_{2} -V_{1}

Due to the vector nature of the electric filed, we can only know the mean Electric field E across the membrane, and take it out from the integral, that is:

E = (ΔV)/L

Where L is the thickness of the membrane and ΔV is the potential difference.

Therefore:

E = 8.53933*10^6 V/m

rounding to the first tenth:

E = 8.5 * 10^6 V/m

1. Why did Asteroid 2019 OK cause concern among scientists? * The asteroid was not detected until it was extremely close to Eart
AveGali [126]

Answer:

<u>The asteroid was not detected until it was extremely close to Earth. </u>

Explanation:

According to data from NASA, the Asteroid named 'Astriod 2019 OK', was detected when it was extremely close to earth with just about an estimated distance of  73,000 kilometers  (45,000 miles) from the Earth.

Scientists were concerned at the proximity of this space object to the Earth before it was discovered, and it brought about a cause of concern that since it was not extremely large (estimated 57 to 130 meters wide) it creates a potential for other smaller asteroids to escape detection and struck the earth.

According to the graph, what is the motorcycle’s Average velocity ?
borishaifa [10]
According to the position vs time graph, the <em>average</em> <em>velocity</em> of the motorcycle is the change in position divided by the change in time. Also, note that the slope is linear and positive throughout the 5 hours, it doesn't change direction. 

Therefore, we have
Avg velocity = change in direction/change in time
Avg velocity = (150km - 30km)/(5h - 0h)
Avg velocity = 24km/hr south.
