Length of the slope is given as

L = 15 m

also the inclination is given as

\theta = 30 degree

now the horizontal displacement is let say "x"

now from geometry we can say

\frac{x}{L} = cos30

x = L cos30

now substitute all values in it

x = 15 * cos30

x = 12.99 m

<em>so it will displace horizontally by 12.99 m</em>

Answer:

Light refracts when its speed changes as it enters a new medium.

Explanation:

Bending of light wave while it entering a medium with different speed is called refraction of light. Light passing from a faster medium to the slower medium bends the light rays toward the normal to boundary between two media. The amount of the  bending of light depends on refractive index of the two media which is described by  the Snell's Law. The angle of incidence is not equal to  angle of refraction. Rainbow is caused but this refraction phenomena. Also Refraction is used in magnifying glasses, prism and lenses

When a wire is made thicker its resistance what?
NeTakaya
Making a wire thicker has the same effect as making a road wider. It makes it easier for the electron traffic to flow. The resistance decreases, and the current (traffic) increases.

What Converts sound to a signal in a telephone
Irina-Kira [14]

The part you talk into, that converts the sound of your voice
into an electrical signal, is a tiny microphone.

-- The sound waves from your voice are ripples in the air.

-- In most microphones, there's a tiny coil of wire hanging
between the ends of a tiny magnet.   

-- When the ripples in the air hit the little coil of wire, they
make it vibrate (wiggle) slightly.

-- When a coil of wire wiggles in the field of a magnet,
a current flows in the wire.

There's
your electrical signal !

If two people lift identical stacks of books the same distance and one person does the job twice as fast, which of the following
Doss [256]

Answer:

Power

Explanation:

Power is defined as the rate of doing work with reference to the time spent and the formula is force multiplied by velocity.

In this case, if two people lift identical stacks of books the same distance and one person does the job twice as fast, then it means the velocity in the case is doubled which will also lead to an increase in the Power .
