Explanation:
Suppose you want to shine a flashlight beam down a long, straight hallway. Just point the beam straight down the hallway -- light travels in straight lines, so it is no problem. What if the hallway has a bend in it? You could place a mirror at the bend to reflect the light beam around the corner. What if the hallway is very winding with multiple bends? You might line the walls with mirrors and angle the beam so that it bounces from side-to-side all along the hallway. This is exactly what happens in an optical fiber.
The light in a fiber-optic cable travels through the core (hallway) by constantly bouncing from the cladding (mirror-lined walls), a principle called total internal reflection. Because the cladding does not absorb any light from the core, the light wave can travel great distances.
However, some of the light signal degrades within the fiber, mostly due to impurities in the glass. The extent that the signal degrades depends on the purity of the glass and the wavelength of the transmitted light (for example, 850 nm = 60 to 75 percent/km; 1,300 nm = 50 to 60 percent/km; 1,550 nm is greater than 50 percent/km). Some premium optical fibers show much less signal degradation -- less than 10 percent/km at 1,550 nm.

It is not possible to explain the interaction of the rod and pieces of paper as a gravitational interaction.
<h3>What is Gravitational interaction?</h3>
This is defined as the interaction between a particle or body resulting from their mass. This type of interaction is usually weak and occurs in all distances possible.
It is not gravitational interaction, because the rod attracts paper only against the gravitational force of the earth and there is no attraction between both bodies under a different condition.
This is therefore the reason why it is not possible to explain the interaction of the rod and pieces of paper as a gravitational interaction.

<u><em>The right answer is "A) Substance is denser as a solid than as a gas" Trust me I just got it wrong because of this guy down here or girls not trying to judge</em></u>
Given:
Inclined at 15 degrees
Tension of 5000N
Mass of container 800kg
Required:
Mass of elephant
Solution:
F = mgcos(theta)
5000 = m (9.8m/s2)cos(15)
<span>M = 528.2kg</span>
