Hello there!

I can help you out with #15 to help get you started/ unstuck! :)

So I see you have your conversion table drawn! Fantastic!

So you start off by putting the GIVEN unit in the first (top) space.

12 g

Next, you put " 1 g " ( 1 gram ) below, and to the right of it. (Diagonal right 1 block).

Why 1 gram? Because the units g will cancel each other out!

So on the box NEXT to your 12 g, put ___kg. This will give you your new unit.

For now, you can search up how many kilograms there are in a gram but it'll be very helpful in the future to have it memorized. :)

Clarification:

"How many kg are there in a g?"

We do this because the bottom says " 1 gram," so since we're converting grams to kilograms, we're converting 1 gram to ___ kilograms.


After filling out your chart, multiply the tops together! Cancel out units, and use a calculator if it's allowed! :)

Summary:

1). Make an empty conversion table.
2). Start with the given unit in the top left space.
3). Move down, and to the right: Put 1 (unit). This will cancel the units out later.
4). Above the 1 (unit), put (???) (new unit).

To find (???) simply search it up. :)

Ex). "How many kg are there in 1 g?"

The units should cancel out on their own. :)

With this, it simply takes practice. I'm sure you'll get the hang of it in no time! :D

A beam of light is emitted 8.6 cm beneath the surface of a liquid and strikes the air surface 7.2 cm from the point directly abo
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

n = 1.56

Explanation:

The total reflection attempts occurs when a light beam passes from a medium with a higher index to a medium with a lower nest, at an angle where it occurs we can find them by the refractive relationship

             n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

             n1 = n2 / sin θ₁

For this relationship to be fulfilled, the liquid index must be greater than the air index divided by the sine of the critical angle

Let's use trigonometry to find angle

               tan θ = y / x

                θ = tan⁻¹ 7.2 / 8.6

                θ = 39.94º

         

                n₁ = 1 / sin 39.94

                n = 1.56

This is the refractive index of the liquid

How does energy from an ocean wave power stuff in a house?
Gala2k [10]
<span>The density of the energy that is transported under the waves under the ocean surface is about five times higher compared to the wind energy 20 meter (about 65 feet) above.  In other words, the amount of energy in a single wave is very high. However it turns out that when they tried to make the high power of the waves to power things in a house it only made it past the first few stages there were very few that made it to some stages. This started taking place in around 2001. hope this helped if not let me know and i could explain more:)

Why is the restoring force in Hooke's law a negative value?
Rudiy27
It's a negative value because the negative sign on the spring's force means the force exerted opposes the spring's displacement

A stationary sub uses sonar to send a 1.18x10^3 hertz sound wave through ocean water. The reflected sound wave from the flat oce
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

a) v = 1524.7 m/s

b) T = 8.47*10^-4 s

   λ = 1.29 m

Explanation:

a) First, in order to calculate the speed of the sound wave, you take into account that the velocity is constant, then, you use the following formula:

v=\frac{d}{t}

d: distance traveled by the sound wave, which is twice the distance to the ocean bottom = 2*324 m = 648 m

t: time that sound wave takes to return to the sub = 0.425

v=\frac{648m}{0.425s}=1524.7\frac{m}{s}

hence, the speed of the sound wave is 1524.7 m/s

b) Next, with the value of the velocity of the wave you can calculate the wavelength of the wave, by using the following formula:

v=\lambda f\\\\\lambda=\frac{v}{f}

f: frequency = 1.18*10^3 Hz

\lambda=\frac{1524.7m/s}{1.18*10^3s^{-1}}=1.29m

And the period is:

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{1.18*10^3s^{-1}}=8.47*10^{-4}s

hence, the wavelength and period of the sound wave is, respectively, 1.29m and 8.47*10^-4 s

mixer [17]
It should be at the very top since it has more space to fall which gives it more potential energy
