Answer:

A. 4.82 cm

B. 24.66 cm

Explanation:

The depth of water = 19.6 cm

Distance of fish  = 6.40 cm

Index of refraction of water = 1.33

(A). Now use the below formula to compute the apparent depth.

d_{app} = \frac{n_{air}}{n_{water}} \times d_{real} \\= \frac{1}{1.33} \times 6.40 \\= 4.82 cm.

(B). the depth of the fish in the mirror.

d_{real} = 19.6 cm + (19.6 cm – 6.40 cm) = 32.8 cm

Now find the depth of reflection of the fish in the bottom of the tank.

d_{app} = \frac{n_{air}}{n_{water}} \times d_{real} \\d_{app} = \frac{1}{1.33} \times 32.8  = 24.66\\

A 5.0 kg object moving at 5.0 m/s. KE = mv2 times 1/2
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: KE = 62.5J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of object = 5kg

kinetic energy KE = ?

velocity of object = 5m/s

Since kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves. Therefore, the object has kinetic energy.

i.e K.E = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2 x 5kg x (5m/s)^2

KE = 0.5 x 5 x 25

KE = 62.5J

Thus, the object has 62.5 joules of kinetic energy.

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2670 km in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 11,070 km in 9 hou
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

speed of plane in still air = 1060 km/h

speed of wind = 170 km/h

Explanation:

Let teh speed of plane in still air is vp and the speed of air is va.

Irt travels 2670 km in 3 hours against the wind

So,

vp - va = 2670 / 3 = 890 km/h ..... (1)

It travels 11070 km in 9 hours along the wind.

vp + va = 11070 / 9 = 1230 km/h .... (2)

Adding both the equations

2 vp = 2120

vp = 1060 km/h

and va = 1230 - vp = 1230 - 1060 = 170 km/h
