Yes, you need to understand refraction, because refraction is when an object bends when going into a different medium, meaning, when you put the spear from air to water, it will bend the shape making it harder to spear the fish.
Hopefully that helps!

You will need to understand refraction, because objects you see from the surface of water, are not really in the same place as you see them. for example, a fish that you see in a pond might be slightly to the left or right underwater.

A platinum sphere with radius 0.0199 m is totally immersed in mercury. Find the weight of the sphere, the buoyant force acting o
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Weight = 6.919 n

Buoyant force = 4.397 N

Apparent weight = 2.522 N

Explanation:

radius, r = 0.0199 m

density of platinum = 2.14 x 1064 kg/m^3

density of mercury = 1.36 x 1064 kg/m^3

Weight of sphere= volume of sphere x density of platinum x g

                            = 4/3 x 3.14 x (0.0199)^3 x 2.14 x 10^4 x 9.8 = 6.919 N

Buoyant force acting on sphere =  Volume of sphere x density of mercury x g

                            = 4/3 x 3.14 x (0.0199)^3 x 1.36 x 10^4 x 9.8 = 4.397 N

Apparent weight = True weight - Buoyant force = 6.919 - 4.397 = 2.522 N

In dealing with every task assigned, why is planning important for a student?
Jet001 [13]

Having a planner gives students freedom to plan, organize and keep track of their work to the best of their abilities and requirements. This has a dual benefit in that it increases the student's accountability to the commitments planned as well as provides them with a structure that contributes to their success.

Which process is associated with an increase in kinetic energy, and what experimental evidence supports this?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Option B: the period during which a solid is not changing state; its temperature is increasing

Explanation:

The temperature is defined as a measurement of the speed at which particles of matter are moving (their kinetic energy)

Therefore for an increase of kinetic energy to take place, and increase of temperature has to occur.

A toy car moves around a circular track at constant speed. It suddenly doubles its speed — a change of a factor of 2. As a resul
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

given,

toy car is moving in circular track

speed is doubled— a change of a factor of 2

to find change in factor of acceleration

radius doesn't change

centripetal acceleration formula

           = \dfrac{v^2}{r}

velocity is change in factor of 2

so acceleration will be change at the factor of

           = \dfrac{(2v)^2}{r}

           = 2² = 4

so the correct answer is option B
