Answer:

float

Explanation:

a less dense material will float when placed in a material that is more dense than itself. The reverse is also true, that a denser material will sink when placed into into a less dense material.

A 26.2-kg dog is running northward at 3.02 m/s, while a 5.30-kg cat is running eastward at 2.74 m/s. Their 65.1-kg owner has the

REY [17]

Answer:

Angle with the +x axis is θ = 79.599degree

Then the velocity of owner = 1.235m/s

Explanation:

Given that the mass of dog is m1 =26.2 kg

velocity of dog is u1 = 3.02 m/s (north)

mass of cat is m2 = 5.3 kg

velocity is u2 = 2.74 m/s (east )

Mass of owner is M = 65.1 kg

Consider the east direction along +x axis andnorth along +y

momentum of dog is Py = m1 x u1

= 79.124 kg.m/s (j)

momentum of cat is Px = m2 x u2

= 14.522 kg.m/s (i)

Then the net magnitude of momentum is P = (Px2 + Py2)1/2

= 80.445

Angle with the +x axis is θ =tan-1(Py / Px ) = 79.599 degree

Then the velocity of owner is v = P / M = 1.235 m/s

Calculate the orbital speed (in m/s) of a satellite that circles the Earth with a time period of 12.00 hours. The mass of the Ea

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

$v = 3869 m/s$

Explanation:

As we know that the orbital speed of the satellite is given as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$

also we know that

time period of the revolution is given as

$T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}$

now from above equation we know that

$T = \frac{2\pi (\frac{GM}{v^2})}{v}$

$T = \frac{2\pi GM}{v^3}$

so we will have

$v = (\frac{2\pi GM}{T})^{1/3}$

now plug in all data in this equation

$v = (\frac{2\pi (6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.97 \times 10^{24})}{12 \times 3600})^{1/3}$

$v = 3869 m/s$

Who is responsible of refraction light 1/3 in eye

alexandr1967 [171]

The cornea is responsible of refraction light 1/3 in eye.

<h3>What is the function of the cornea?</h3>

In addition to the protective function, it plays a fundamental role in the formation of vision. Transparent, it works like a lens over the iris, focusing light from the pupil towards the retina.

Normally, the cornea and lens deflect (refract) incoming light rays, focusing them on the retina. The shape of the cornea is fixed, but the lens changes shape to focus on objects at different distances from the eye.
