<span>The correct answer is letter B. less than the angle of refraction. </span>When a beam of light passes at an oblique angle into a material of lower optical density, the angle of incidence is <span>less than the angle of refraction. The reason for that because the beam of light passes through an oblique angle.</span>

A woman takes her dog rover for a walk on a leash. She pulls on the leash with a force of 30.0 N at an angle of 29° above the ho

IrinaK [193]

19.8 N force is tending to lift Rover vertically off the ground.

<h3>What is horizontal and vertical component?</h3>

The horizontal velocity component ( $v_{x}$ ) describes the influence of the velocity in displacing the projectile horizontally. The vertical velocity component ( $v_{y}$ ) describes the influence of the velocity in displacing the projectile vertically.

According to the question,

The women pulls the dog with a force of 30 N at an angle of 29° from the horizontal.

Horizontal component= 30cos(29°) = 22.2 N

Vertical component = 30sin(29°) = 19.8 N

Therefore,

The horizontal component would tend to make the dog move forward and the vertical component would tend lift it off the ground.

Hence,

19.8 N force is tending to lift Rover vertically off the ground.

A person is riding a bicycle, and its wheels have an angular velocity of 10.7 rad/s. Then, the brakes are applied and the bike i

Scilla [17]

Answer:

(a) t = 22.9 s

(b) α= - 0.467 rad/s²

Explanation:

The uniformly accelerated circular movement, is a circular path movement in which the angular acceleration is constant.

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated :

ωf ²= ω₀² + 2*α*θ Formula (1)

ωf= ω₀ + α*t Formula (2)

Where:

θ : angle that the body has rotated in a given time interval (rad)

α : angular acceleration (rad/s²)

t : time interval (s)

ω₀ : initial angular speed ( rad/s)

ωf : final angular speed ( rad/s)

Data

θ = 19.5 revolutions : angular displacement of each wheel or angle that the wheel has rotated in a given time interval

ω₀= 10.7 rad/s : initial angular speed of the Wheel ( rad/s)

ωf = 0 : final angular speed of the Whee( rad/s)

Calculating of the angular acceleration (α )

We replace data in the fómula (1),considering that 1 revolution is equal to 2π radians :

ωf ²= ω₀² + 2*α*θ

(0 )²= (10.7)² + 2*α*(19.5*2*π )

0= 114.49 + (245.04)*α

-114.49 = (245.04)*α

α= (-114.49) /(245.04)

α= -114.49 /(245.04)

α= -0.467 rad/s²

Time does it take for the bike to come to rest

We replace data in the formula (2)

ωf = ω₀ + α*t

0 = 10.7 + -0.467*t

-10.7 = - 0.467*t we multiply by (-1) both sides of the equation :

10.7 = 0.467*t

t = 10.7 / 0.467

t = 22.9 s

While driving on a highway, your HMMWV starts to pull to one side. You stop and check your tires – one tire is going flat. There

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

30 miles people hour (mph)

Explanation:

The maximum speed for one flat tyre is 30mph, for both tyres it is 20 mph and for two tyres on the same side it is 30mph. When a tyre is punctured driving at high speed should be avoided and not too long distance should be covered to avoid further accident and for the safety of other vehicles. Speed limit and distance for flat tires should be strictly followed.

A quarter-wave monopole radio antenna (also called a Marconi antenna) consists of a long conductor of one quarter the length of

sasho [114]

Answer:

a) Height of the antenna (in m) for a radio station broadcasting at 604 kHz = 124.17 m

b)Height of the antenna (in m) for radio stations broadcasting at 1,710 kHz =43.86 m

Explanation:

(a) Radiowave wavelength= λ = c/f

As we know, Radiowave speed in the air = c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

f = frequency = 604 kHz = 604 x 10^3 Hz

Hence, wavelength = (3x10^8/604x10^3) m

λ = 496.69 m

So the height of the antenna BROADCASTING AT 604 kHz = λ /4 = (496.69/4) m

= 124.17 m

(b) As we know , f = 1710 kHz = 1710 x 10^3 Hz (1kHZ = 1000 Hz)

Hence, wavelength = λ = (3 x 10^8/1710 x 10^3) m

λ= 175.44 m

So, height of the antenna = λ /4 = (175.44/4) m

= 43.86 m
