Answer:

Centimeter (cm)

Explanation:

A student performs an experiment and must measure the lengths of four different objects: a textbook, a pencil, a cup, and a piece of bread.

There are so many units of measuring length of an object like centimeter, millimeter, kilometer etc. Some of units are used to measure very large distances (i.e. the distance between sun and earth etc ) are light year, astronomical units etc.

In this case, a textbook, a pencil, a cup, and a piece of bread are small object. The most appropriate unit of measurement for her to use is centimeter or cm.

While Robert was helping his father in the garden, he pushed a shovel into the ground to dig a hole in the dirt. He picked up a
makvit [3.9K]

Work done is given by the change in kinetic energy of an object

  • The kinetic energy of the shovel, the shrub, and in Robert's movement were changed, therefore, work is done in the given processes,

Reason:

Work is done when the total energy of object is affected by the application of force on the object over a distance

Therefore;

  • In option <em>A</em>, pushing the shovel into ground (to dig out the dirt) the requires the application of a force (push) over a distance, (into and out of the ground) therefore work is done
  • In option <em>B</em>, picking the shrub up gives it gravitational potential energy, therefore, work is done
  • In option <em>C</em>, carrying the shrub to the hole does visible work
  • In option <em>D</em>, holding the shrub while lowering it into the hole does work by preventing the shrub from falling randomly

Therefore, <u>work is done in the given processes</u>

The characteristic that gives an element its distinctive properties is its number of:_________
oee [108]

The characteristic that gives an element its distinctive properties is its number of protons because the number of protons of any element represents its atomic number.

<h3>What is the atomic number?</h3>

The total number of protons present in an atom is known as the atomic number of that atom. The atomic number has no correlation either with the number of neutrons or the number of electrons present inside an atom.

Since the number of protons in any element corresponds to its atomic number, this property provides an element with its particular features.

Let's apply Snell's law to the refraction of light across a water–air interface. Suppose you kneel beside the fishpond in your b
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The angle of refraction is 41.68°.

Explanation:

The refractive index for water is n_2 = 1.333, and for air n_1 = 1.00: the angle of light with the normal is 90^o-60^o = 30^o; therefore Snell's law gives

n_1sin(\theta_1)= n_2sin(\theta_2)

1.00*sin(\theta_1) = 1.33 sin(30^o)

sin (\theta_1) = \dfrac{1.33sin(30^o)}{1.00}

sin (\theta_1) = 0.665

\theta _1 = sin^{-1}(0.665)

\boxed{\theta_1 = 41.68^o}

a child stands with each foot on a different scale. The left scale reads 200N and the right scale reads 150N. what is her mass i
vitfil [10]

Answer:

35.7 kg

Explanation:

We are given that

Left scale reads =200N

Right scale reads=150 N

We have to find the mass in kg.

We know that

Weight  of child= Sum of two scales=200+150=350 N

Acceleration due to gravity=9.8 m/s^2

We know that

Weight= mg

Using the formula

350=9.8 m

m=\frac{350}{9.8}=35.7 kg

Hence, the mass of child=35.7 kg
