Answer:

the stone enters the water and slows down

Explanation:

Solution:

- When light is refracted it speed is slowed down or increases depending on the medium it enters. This depends on the ratio of air-water refractive index ratio.

- The speed of an object in air is faster than speed of an object in water. Because the refractive index of air is less than that of water. In refraction, the light changes direction slightly because it slows down or speeds up, depending on what medium it is changing into.

- From this we could say as the rock enters the water and slows down it models as if the light has been refracted.

A flat surface is in a uniform magnetic field. Given only the area of the surface and the magnetic flux through the surface, it
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Given the area A of a flat surface and the magnetic flux through the surface \Phi it is possible to calculate the magnitude \frac{\Phi}{A}=B\ cos \theta.

Explanation:

The magnetic flux gives an idea of how many magnetic field lines are passing through a surface. The SI unit of the magnetic flux \Phi is the weber (Wb), of the magnetic field B is the tesla (T) and of the area A is (m^{2}). So 1 Wb=1 T.m².

For a flat surface S of area A in a uniform magnetic field B, with \theta being the angle between the vector normal to the surface S and the direction of the magnetic field B, we define the magnetic flux through the surface as:

                                                     \Phi=B\ A\ cos\theta

We are told the values of \Phi and B, then we can calculate the magnitude

                                                      \frac{\Phi}{A}=B\ cos\theta

A crate rests on a flatbed truck which is initially traveling at 17.9 m/s on a level road. The driver applies the brakes and the
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.  

Explanation:

The minimum coefficient of friction required to keep the crate from sliding can be found as follows:

-F_{f} + F = 0      

-F_{f} + ma = 0      

\mu mg = ma

\mu = \frac{a}{g}

Where:

μ: is the coefficient of friction

m: is the mass of the crate

g: is the gravity

a: is the acceleration of the truck

The acceleration of the truck can be found by using the following equation:

v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} + 2ad

a = \frac{v_{f}^{2} - v_{0}^{2}}{2d}

Where:  

d: is the distance traveled = 46.1 m

v_{f}: is the final speed of the truck = 0 (it stops)      

v_{0}: is the initial speed of the truck = 17.9 m/s

a = \frac{-(17.9 m/s)^{2}}{2*46.1 m} = -3.48 m/s^{2}        

If we take the reference system on the crate, the force will be positive since the crate will feel the movement in the positive direction.  

\mu = \frac{a}{g}  

\mu = \frac{3.48 m/s^{2}}{9.81 m/s^{2}}

\mu = 0.35

Therefore, the minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.  

I hope it helps you!

What is an asteroid that is pulled off course by a planet’s gravity and orbits around that planet called?
tresset_1 [31]

The definition of the celestial bodies allows us to find that the correct answer for a body that is captured and is in planetary orbit is:

  • Moon

Asteroids are small rocky bodies that rotate around the Sun, when this body enters the atmosphere of a planet and reaches the surface it is called meteoroids.

A meteorite is a fragment of meteoroid, which has been divided in space or the atmosphere during the entrance to the planet, in general they are smaller

A meteor is the atmospheric phenomenon that occurs when the pattern meteorite or meteoroid enters, that is, it does not correspond to a celestial body.

An asteroid satellite or Moon is a celestial object that revolves captures and around another asteroid, this concept can be extended to an asteroid revolving captures and around a planet

A satellite is a celestial body that orbits a planet, its origin is varied and could be formed during the formation of the planet itself, or by capturing a nearby body during the initial formation of the solar system.

Let's examine the different answers

  • Moon.

True. A body captured by a planet is generally called the Moon.

  • Meteoriode.

False. A meteoroid is a body that enters the atmosphere of the plant and reaches its surface.

  • Meteorite

False. It is a fragment of meteoroid that manages to reach the surface of the planet.

  • Meteor

False.   Atmospheric phenomenon visible when passing a meteoroid or meteorite.

In conclusion, using the definition of celestial bodies we can find that the correct answer for a body that is captured and is in planetary orbit is:

  • Moon
