Answer:
The speed of the banana just before it hits the water is:
√(2 · g · h) = v
Explanation:
Hi there!
Before Emily throws the banana, its potential energy is:
PE = m · g · h
Where:
PE = potential energy.
m = mass of the banana.
g = acceleration of the banana due to gravity.
h = height of the bridge (distance from the bridge to the ground).
When the banana reaches the water, all its potential energy will have converted to kinetic energy. The equation for kinetic energy is as follows:
KE = 1/2 · m · v²
Where:
KE = kinetic energy.
m = mass of the banana.
v = speed.
Then, when the banana hits the water:
m · g · h = 1/2 · m · v²
multiply by 2 and divide by m both sides of the equation:
2 · g · h = v²
√(2 · g · h) = v
Answer:
Refraction
Explanation:
When light passes from a rarer medium into a denser medium, it bends in the medium away from the normal. This creates the phenomenon of "apparent depth" as given in the question.
The light interference pattern is a series of light and dark stripes.
The bright stripes are areas where there is CONstructive interference.
The dark stripes are areas where there is DEstructive interference.
Answer:
Rutherford
Explanation:
In 1911, E. Rutherford and his collaborators bombarded a thin gold foil with alpha (positive) particles, coming from a radioactive material, at high speed. The experiment allowed observing the following behavior in the released particles: Most of them passed through the sheet without changing direction, as expected. Some deviated considerably e. A few particles bounced towards the emission source.
In the Rutherford Model the positive charge is concentrated in a central nucleus, so that the positive particles that pass very close to it, deviate enough from their initial trajectory and only those few that collide directly with the nucleus return in the direction of which they come from
.
The Rutherford Model states that: The atom has a central zone or nucleus where the total positive charge (that of the protons) and most of the mass of the atom, provided by the protons and neutrons. It also has an outer zone or cortex where electrons are found, which revolve around the nucleus. (Actually, the nucleus particles (protons and neutrons) were discovered after Rutherford established his model. Rutherford's experiment only reported a small, positive nucleus, did not clarify anything else)

I hope this helps, good luck! :)</span>
