A direct current
this is a current that only flows in one direction
The independent variable is how much weight you add to the boat.
The dependent variable is: Did it or did it not sink yet ?
Answer:
+7.0 m/s
Explanation:
Let's take rightward as positive direction.
So in this problem we have:
a = -2.5 m/s^2 acceleration due to the wind (negative because it is leftward)
t = 4 s time interval
v = -3.0 m/s is the final velocity (negative because it is leftward)
We can use the following equation:
v = u + at
Where u is the initial velocity
We want to find u, so if we rearrange the equation we find:

and the positive sign means the initial direction was rightward.
Answer:
R = 35.27 Ohms
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Voltage = 230V
Power = 1500W
To find the resistance, R;
Power = V²/R
Where:
V is the voltage measured in volts.
R is the resistance measured in ohms.
Substituting into the equation, we have;
1500 = 230²/R
Cross-multiplying, we have;
1500R = 52900
R = 52900/1500
R = 35.27 Ohms.
Therefore, the resistance which the heating element needs to have is 35.27 Ohms.
Answer:
is reflected back into the region of higher index
Explanation:
Total internal reflection is a phenomenon that occurs when all the light passing from a region of higher index of refraction to a region of lower index is reflected back into the region of higher index.
According to Snell's law, refraction of ligth is described by the equation

where
n1 is the refractive index of the first medium
n2 is the refractive index of the second medium
is the angle of incidence (in the first medium)
is the angle of refraction (in the second medium)
Let's now consider a situation in which

so light is moving from a medium with higher index to a medium with lower index. We can re-write the equation as

Where
is a number greater than 1. This means that above a certain value of the angle of incidence
, the term on the right can become greater than 1. So this would mean

But this is not possible (the sine cannot be larger than 1), so no refraction occurs in this case, and all the light is reflected back into the initial medium (total internal reflection). The value of the angle of incidence above which this phenomen occurs is called critical angle, and it is given by
