You throw a baseball straight up in the air so that it rises to a maximum height much greater than your height. Is the magnitude

of the ball’s acceleration greater while it is being thrown or after it leaves your hand? Explain.

The ball's acceleration is constant in magnitude and direction, from the instant it leaves your hand, until the instant it hits the ground, no matter what direction or speed you throw it.

It's the acceleration of gravity, on whatever planet you happen to be standing when you throw the ball.

Mrrafil [7]
Snell's law: n1Sinα=n2Sin β where α=Incidence angle, β=angle of refraction, n1 and n2 are the indices of refraction for water and air respectively.
Therefore,
Sinα=n2/n1 Sinβ For refracted ray to be along the surface of water, β=90° and thus Sinβ = 1

Sinα=n2/n1= 1/1.33 = 0.7519 => α=sin^-1 (0.7519) = 48.75°
When light moves from a medium of higher index of refraction (such as water) to medium of lesser index of refraction (such as air), the refracted ray is bend such that α is bigger than β. This  is internal refraction. At some value of α, β approaches 90°. This incidence angle is called critical incidence angle. Therefore, the current scenario is shows critical angle of incidence.

A 5.0-kilogram sphere, starting from rest, falls freely 22 meters in 3.0 seconds near the surface of a planet. Compared to the a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

C) one-half as great

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration of gravity in that planet, using the following kinematic equation:

\Delta x=v_0t+\frac{gt^2}{2}

In this case, the sphere starts from rest, so v_0=0. Replacing the given values and solving for g':

g'=\frac{2\Delta x}{t^2}\\g'=\frac{2(22m)}{(3s)^2}\\g'=4.89\frac{m}{s^2}

The acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface is g=9.8\frac{m}{s^2}. So, the acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet is approximately one-half of the acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface.
