Answer:

Work, W = 846.72 Joules

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the watermelon, m = 4.8 kg

It is dropped from rest from the roof of 18 m building. We need to find the work done by the gravity on the watermelon from the roof to the ground. It is same as gravitational potential energy i.e.

W = mgh

W=4.8\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 18\ m

W = 846.72 Joules

So, the work done by the gravity on the watermelon is 846.72 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

When the flashlight is in the air and the refracted ray enters the water, how does the angle of refraction compare with the angl
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The refracted angle will be less than the angle of incidence and the speed of light is slower in the new medium (which is water) and is closer to the normal.

Try remembering this by using FST SFA (Fast Sofa)

                                             Fast -> Slow = Towards the normal

                                             Slow -> Fast = Away from normal

Voices of swimmers at a pool travel 400 m/s through the air and 1,600 m/s underwater. The wavelength changes from 2 m in the air
frosja888 [35]

The frequency of the wave has not changed.

In fact, the frequency of a wave is given by:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where v is the wave's speed and \lambda is the wavelength.

Applying the formula:

- In air, the frequency of the wave is:

f=\frac{400 m/s}{2 m}=200 Hz

- underwater, the frequency of the wave is:

f=\frac{1600 m/s}{8 m}=200 Hz

So, the frequency has not changed.
