Rowan is walking in a shallow, clear bay, in still water just over her knees. When she looks down at her feet in the sand, she n

otes that they appear closer to her than usual. Normally, when she tips her head forward to look at her feet, her feet are 1.60 m from her eyes. How far away do her feet appear when they are under 0.60 m of water?

Answer:

Rowan's feet appears at a distance of 0.451 m under water

Solution:

As per the question:

Actual depth in water, d = 0.60 m

Normal distance of her feet from her eyes, D = 1.60 m

Now,

We know that refractive index of water, n_{w} = 1.33

Thus

To calculate the apparent height of her feet:

n_{w} = \frac{d}{Apparent\ Height, H_{apparent}}

H_{apparent} = \frac{d}{n_{w}} = \frac{0.60}{1.33} = 0.451\ m

Imagine a negative test charge sitting at the coordinate origin (0,0). Two bunches of positive charges are located on the x-axis
Oxana [17]

Answer:

the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

Explanation:

Given the data in the question, as illustrated in the image below;

from the Image, OA = 1, OB = AC = 1

so using Pythagoras theorem

a² = b² + c²

a = √( b² + c² )

so

OC = √( OB² + AC² )

we substitute

OC = √( OA² + AC² )

OC = √( 1² + 1² )

OC = √( 1 + 1 )

OC = √2

Coordinate of C( 1, 1 )

Hence, the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

Four forces act on a hot-air balloon, as shown
dolphi86 [110]

The magnitude of the resultant force on the balloon is 374.13 N.

The given forces from the image;

  • <em>Upward force = 514 N</em>
  • <em>Downward force = 267 N</em>
  • <em>Eastward force = 678 N</em>
  • <em>Westward force = 397 N</em>

The net vertical force on the balloon is calculated as follows;

F_y = 514 \ N \ \ - \ \ 267 \ N\\\\F_y = 247 \ N

The net horizontal force on the balloon is calculated as follows;

F_x = 678 \ N \ - \ 397 \ N\\\\F_x = 281 \ N

The magnitude of the resultant force on the balloon is calculated as follows;

F = \sqrt{F_y^2 + F_x^2} \\\\F = \sqrt{(247)^2 + (281)^2} \\\\F= 374.13 \ N

Thus, the magnitude of the resultant force on the balloon is 374.13 N.

Certain rifles can fire a bullet with a speed of 950 m/s just as it leaves the muzzle (this speed is called the muzzle velocity)
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

a) By v^2 = u^2 + 2as => a= 70291.70.

(b)By v = u + at => t= 1.58 ms.

(c)By v^2 = u^2 - 2gh => H = 46045.92 m.

Explanation:

a) By v^2 = u^2 + 2as

(950)^2 = 0 + 2 \times a \times 0.75\\a = 601666.67 m/s^2\\a/g = 688858.70/9.8 = 70291.70

(b)By v = u + at

950 = 0 + 601666.67 \times t\\t = 1.58 x 10^-3 sec = 1.58 ms

(c)By v^2 = u^2 - 2gh

0 = (950)^2 - 2 \times9.8 \times H\\H = 46045.92 m

The amount of gas that a helicopter uses is directly proportional to the number of hours spent flying. the helicopter flies for
igomit [66]

Answer:

The helicopter uses 35 gallons to fly for 5 hours.

Explanation:

The amount of gas that a helicopter uses for flying varies directly proportional to the number of hours spent flying.

g ∝ T

where g represents amount of gas and T time of flight.

Then,

\therefore \frac{g_1}{g_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}

The helicopter files 4 hours and uses 28 gallons of fuel.

Here, g₁= 28 gallons, T₁=4 hours

g₂=?, T₂=5 hours.

\therefore \frac{g_1}{g_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}

\Rightarrow \frac{28}{g_2}=\frac{4}{5}

⇒28×5= g₂×4

⇒ g₂×4=28×5

\Rightarrow g_2=\frac{28\times 5}{4}

\Rightarrow g_2=35 gallons

The helicopter uses 35 gallons to fly for 5 hours.
