The correct answer is C. Light waves slow down as they travel from the air though the water.

Light waves slow down when they go from air into water.  Then, once they're in the water and traveling through it, they don't change speed.

A Ferris wheel on a California pier is 27 m high and rotates once every 32 seconds in the counterclockwise direction. When the w
Leto [7]

A) 140 degrees

First of all, we need to find the angular velocity of the Ferris wheel. We know that its period is

T = 32 s

So the angular velocity is

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{32 s}=0.20 rad/s

Assuming the wheel is moving at constant angular velocity, we can now calculate the angular displacement with respect to the initial position:

\theta= \omega t

and substituting t = 75 seconds, we find

\theta= (0.20 rad/s)(75 s)=15 rad

In degrees, it is

15 rad: x = 2\pi rad : 360^{\circ}\\
x=\frac{(15 rad)(360^{\circ})}{2\pi}=860^{\circ} = 140^{\circ}

So, the new position is 140 degrees from the initial position at the top.

B) 2.7 m/s

The tangential speed, v, of a point at the egde of the wheel is given by

v=\omega r

where we have

\omega=0.20 rad/s

r = d/2 = (27 m)/2=13.5 m is the radius of the wheel

Substituting into the equation, we find

v=(0.20 rad/s)(13.5 m)=2.7 m/s

A wheel starts from rest and rotates with constant angular acceleration to reach an angular speed of 11.2 rad/s in 3.07 s. (a) f
Hitman42 [59]
(a) The angular acceleration of the wheel is given by
\alpha =  \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i }{t}
where \omega_i and \omega_f are the initial and final angular speed of the wheel, and t the time.

In our problem, the initial angular speed is zero (the wheel starts from rest), so the angular acceleration is
\alpha =  \frac{(11.2 rad/s) - 0}{3.07 s} =3.65 rad/s^2

(b) The wheel is moving by uniformly rotational accelerated motion, so the angle it covered after a time t is given by
\theta (t) = \omega_i t +  \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2
where \omega_i = 0 is the initial angular speed. So, the angle covered after a time t=3.07 s is
\theta=  \frac{1}{2}  \alpha t^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(3.65 rad/s^2)(3.07 s)^2 = 17.2 rad

During convection, heat warms up a fluid, making the fluid less dense so it begins to RISE. As the warm fluid moves, it begins t
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Convection is a form of heat transfer that is predominantly common in fluids especially liquid and gas.

It occurs by the movement of a part of substance from one place to another based on density and temperature differences.

A typical convection cell is made up of a liquid that is heated. The liquid part close to the heat source becomes warmer and rises due to its low density. The part away from the heat source is more dense and begins to sink.

This analogy is commonly demonstrated in a boiling pot of water.

Answer: ok  well first when Horizontal faults, like vertical faults, disturb the formation of the earth's layers and cause irregularities, including tilting. Surface fault ruptures can also cause tectonic subsidence, which is broad tilting of the valley floor.  that is What causes the disturbance of rock layers to collapse what  and then Due to an unconformity, the ______ period is missing from the rock layer record. The principle of lateral continuity proposes that sedimentary rock layers it provided a tool for sorting out the relative timing of various geologic events  must have been moved into that position by crustal disturbances after their deposition.
