8 0
It consists of our Solar system. Also, it contains many stars and alot of dust and gases. Our milky way is a galaxy full of amazing stuff, many stars blow up and cause auroras in the sky. If you  go to watch the aurora borealis(northern lights) , its amazing and beautiful. The sky turns green and blue and the stars appear.

3. Imagine a 10kg block moving with a speed of 20m/s<br> calculate the kinetic energy of this block
MatroZZZ [7]
The formula of the kinetic energy is:
E_{k}  =  \frac{m v^{2} }{2}
where m is a mass of the object, v is speed of the object at the moment of time. So we have:
E_{k}  =  \frac{10* 20^{2} }{2}  = 2000J
The answer is 2000 Joules.

Given the height of rod,length of shadow of tree and length of shadow of the rod, estimate the height of the tree? Given:height
diamong [38]

Answer:

1000 cm.

Explanation:

To obtain the estimated tree height :

(Height of rod / length of rod shadow) = (height of tree / length of tree shadow)

Substituting values into the formula :

(150cm / 120 cm) = (height of tree / 800 cm)

Using cross multiplication :

Height of tree * 120 = 150 * 800

Height of tree = (150 * 800) / 120

Height of tree = 120,000 / 120

Height of tree = 1000

Hence, estimate height of tree = 1000 cm

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.
