Refractive index, n = v1/v2

Where,
v1 = Speed of light in vacuum = 3*10^8 m/s
v2 = Speed of light in a medium (sphere) = 2*10^8 m/s

Therefore,
n= (3*10*8)/(2*10^8) = 1.5

Briefly describe the three intelligences included in Robert Sternberg’s triarchic theory of human intelligence.
pshichka [43]
The triarchic theory of intelligence<span> was formulated by </span>Robert J. Sternberg<span>, a prominent figure in research of human </span>intelligence<span>. The theory by itself was among the first to go against the </span>psychometric<span> approach to intelligence and take a more </span>cognitive approach<span>. The three meta components are also called triarchic components. These are the triarchic theory of human intelligence.
</span>1. Analytical - Analytical Intelligence similar to the standard psychometric definition of intelligence e.g. as measured by Academic problem solving: analogies and puzzles, and corresponds to his earlier componential intelligence. Sternberg considers this reflects how an individual relates to his internal world.

Sternberg believes that Analytical Intelligence (Academic problem-solving skills) is based on the joint operations of metacomponents and performance components and knowledge acquisition components of intelligence

2. Practical - Practical Intelligence: this involves the ability to grasp, understand and deal with everyday tasks. This is the Contextual aspect of intelligence and reflects how the individual relates to the external world about him or her.

<span>Sternberg states that Intelligence is: </span>"Purposive adaptation to, shaping of, and selection of real-world environments relevant to one's life" (Sternberg, 1984, p.271)

3. Creative - Creative Intelligence: this involves insights, synthesis and the ability to react to novel situations and stimuli. This he considers the Experiential aspect of intelligence and reflects how an individual connects the internal world to external reality.

<span>Sternberg </span>considers the Creative facet to consist of the ability which allows people to think creatively and that which allows people to adjust creatively and effectively to new situations.

<span>Sternberg believes that more intelligent individuals will also move from consciously learning in a novel situation to automating the new learning so that they can attend to other tasks.</span>

Calculate the percentage of an iceberg submerged beneath the surface of the ocean given that the density of ice is 916.3kg/m3 an
pogonyaev

Answer:

The percentage of an iceberg submerged beneath the surface of the ocean = 89.67%

Explanation:

Let V be the total volume of the iceberg

Let x be the volume of iceberg submerged

According to Archimedes principle,

weight of the iceberg = weight of the water displaced (that is, weight of x volume of water)

Weight of the iceberg = mg= ρ(iceberg) × V × g

Weight of water displaced = ρ(fluid) × x × g

We then have

ρ(iceberg) × V × g = ρ(fluid) × x × g

(x/V) = ρ(iceberg) ÷ ρ(fluid) = 916.3 ÷ 1021.9 = 0.8967 = 89.67%

Hope this Helps!!!!

A planet exerts a gravitational force of magnitude 9e22 N on a star. If the planet were 2 times closer to the star (that is, if
Dmitrij [34]

To solve this problem we will use the related concepts in Newtonian laws that describe the force of gravitational attraction. We will use the given value and then we will obtain the proportion of the new force depending on the Radius. From there we will observe how much the force of attraction increases in the new distance.

Planet gravitational force

F_p = 6*10^{22}N

F_p = \frac{GMm}{R^2}

F_p = 9*10^{22}N

Distance between planet and star

r = \frac{R}{2}

Gravitational force is

F = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Applying the new distance,

F = \frac{GMm}{(\frac{R}{2})^2}

F =  4\frac{GMm}{R^2}

Replacing with the previous force,

F = 4F_p

Replacing our values

F= 4(9*10^{22}N)

F = 36*10^{22}N

Therefore the magnitude of the force on the star due to the planet is  36*10^{22}N
