Answer:
because the mass of the apple is very less compared to the mass of earth. Due to less mass the apple cannot produce noticable acceleration in the earth but the earth which has more mass produces noticable acceleration in the apple. thus we can see apple falling on towards the earth but we cannot see earth moving towards the apple.
Answer:
Explanation:
To find Sammy's course you have to add the two velocities (vectors), 18 mph 327º and 4 mph 60º.
To add the two vectors analytically you decompose each vector into their vertical and horizontal components.
<u>1. 18 mph 327º</u>
- Horizontal component: 18 mph × cos (327º) = 15.10 mph
- Vertical component: 18 mph × sin (327º) = - 9.80 mph
<u>2. 4 mph 60º</u>
- Horizontal component: 4 mph × cos (60º) = 2.00 mph
- Vertical component: 4 mph × sin (60º) = 3.46 mph
<u>3. Addition:</u>
You add the corresponding components:
To find the magnitude use Pythagorean theorem:
<u>4. Direction:</u>
Use the tangent ratio:
Find the inverse:
Answer:
5. dispersion
6. 49.8°
Explanation:
5. Dispersion is the name given to the phenomenon of light of different wavelengths being bent differently. A rainbow is the result of light from a point source (the sun) being spread out by wavelength (color), a nice example of dispersion.
___
6. n = 1.31 is the ratio of the sine of the angle of refraction to the sine of the angle of incidence (for light passing to a medium of n = 1). When the angle of refraction is 90°, the angle of incidence is the "critical angle." So, ...
sin(90°)/sin(critical) = 1.31
critical angle = arcsin(1/1.31) ≈ 49.8°
The answer is energy.
Waves in the ocean are energy travelling along water.
Waves do not transport mass, they transport energy, this is the ability to perform work or exert force and distant points.
Although water seems to be travelling along with the wave, the molecules of water only move up and down; they do not travel along with the wave.
