<span>Velocities are vectors so we can add them!

Let's let +x be East and -x be West.

 -0.9 + 2.7 = 1.8
 
Since our answer is positive that means East so the answer is C.</span>

A small but bright light is at the bottom of a pool 2.2 m  deep. How wide is the circle of light that exits the surface of the
mixas84 [53]

Answer: 1.65m

Explanation:

Refractive index in terms of the depth of liquid is the ratio of the real depth to the apparent depth of the liquid i.e Refractive index =Real depth/apparent depth

Refractive index of water given = 1.33

Real depth is the measure of how deep is the liquid while apparent depth is the depth at the surface of the liquid.

Real depth = 2.2m

Apparent depth =?

Applying the formula above

Apparent depth =Real depth/refractive index

= 2.2/1.33

= 1.65m

Therefore, the circle of light that exits the surface of the water when that light shines in the middle of the night is 1.65m wide

"4.What determines how many figures are significant in reported measurement values? What
MAXImum [283]

As the number of significant figures increases, the more accurate or precise the measurement is.

<h3>What is significant figure?</h3>

The term significant figures refers to the number of important single digits in the coefficient of an expression in scientific notation.

Significant figures are the digits in a value that are known with some degree of confidence.

The effect of reporting more or fewer figures or digits than are significant;

As the number of significant figures increases, the more accurate or precise the measurement is.

As precision of a measurement increases, so does the number of significant figures.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

it moves 25 inches.

Explanation:

the east west bit isn't important, ignore it. if an ant starts at 6 then moves to 19 then we need to subtract 19 from 6, that's 13. then it moves to 7. the difference between 19 and 7 is 12. add that to 13 and you get 25. it's important to remember that there is no such thing as negative distance. if it moved, then it counts.
