Answer:

Total internal reflection is going on. The refractive index of water is about 1.3, so sin 90/sin r=1/sinr=1.3. So the fish can only see objects outside the water within about 50 degrees of the vertical

A thermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. What would cause the liquid in the thermometer to
katovenus [111]
The correct answer should be c.The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.

If the temperature drops that means that the molecules are coming together. If the temperature rises then it means that the molecules are spreading. If the kinetic energy falls down that means that they are slower which means that they are cooler.

A swimmer, capable of swimming at a speed of 1.0 m/s in still water (i.e., the swimmer can swim with a speed of 1.0 m/s relative
Vesnalui [34]
If the current takes him downstream we must find the resultant vector of the velocities: V res= \sqrt{1^{2}+0.91^{2}  } = \sqrt{1.8281}= 1.3520747 Then if the river is 3000 m-wide the swimmer will have to pass:
 1.3520747 · 300 = 4056.14 m                t = 4056.14 m : 1 m/s
a ) It takes 4056.15 seconds ( 1 hour 7 minutes and 36 seconds ) to cross the river.  
b ) 0.91 · 3000 = 2730 m
He will be 2730 m downstream.

If a net force of 34.3 N is required to move the system in the figure to the right 2.3 m in 1.3 seconds what is the systems mass
sasho [114]
Mass of the system is 25.2 kg
Calculation:

F=ma

m = F/a  where a = m/t^2

a=2.3/(1.3)^2 = 1.36 m/s^2

m=34.3/1.36

m=25.2 Kg
