Answer:

Mass of the object is 8.5 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of the object is 4 m/s^2

Force applied to the object, F = 34 N

To find :

The mass of the object.

Solve :

Let m is the mass of the ball. The Newton's second law of motion defines the magnitude of force acting on an object.

$F=ma$

$m=\dfrac{F}{a}$

$m=\dfrac{34\ N}{4\ m/s^2}$

m = 8.5 kg

Therefore, the mass of the ball is 8.5 kg.

Why is a protective apron or lab coat important to use when working with acids?

Kipish [7]

Answer:

Acids break down fabrics and can cause burns if the acids are strong.

Explanation:

A protective apron or lab coat is important when working with acids because acids break down fabrics and can cause burns if the acids are strong.

An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions in an aqueous solution.
A strong acid ionizes completely in solution.
When they come in contact with a fabric, they break them down violently.
So, if they come in contact with the skin, it causes a violent break down of body tissues.
The apron acts a protective layer.

Light travels faster in warmer air. On a sunny day, the sun can heat a road and create a layer of hot air above it. Let's model

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Explanation:

If we assume there is a sharp boundary between the two masses of air, there will be a refraction. The refractive index of each medium will depend on the relative speeds of light.

n = c / v

If light travels faster in warmer air, it will have a lower refractive index

nh < nc

Snell's law of refraction relates angles of incidence and refracted with the indexes of refraction:

n1 * sin(θ1) = n2 * sin(θ2)

sin(θ2) = sin(θ1) * n1/n2

If blue light from the sky passing through the hot air will cross to the cold air, then

n1 = nh

n2 = nc

Then:

n1 < n2

So:

n1/n2 < 1

The refracted light will come into the cold air at angle θ2 wich will be smaller than θ1, so the light is bent upwards, creating the appearance of water in the distance, which is actually a mirror image of the sky.
