If a spear is thrown at a fish swimming in a lake, it will often miss the fish completely. Why does this happen?

The light that makes up the image of the fish is refracted when it leaves the water and enters the air. Your brain thinks the light traveled straight, so the fish is not located in the direction from you that your brain thinks it is.

In the Balmer series, how many spectral lines have the wavelength greater than 400 nm?

Irina18 [472]

<span>The Balmer series or Balmer lines in atomic physics, is the designation of one of a set of six named series describing the spectral line emissions of the hydrogen atom. The Balmer series is calculated using the Balmer formula, an empirical equation discovered by Johann Balmer in 1885. this is all I know sorry</span>

In a choir practice room, two parallel walls are 5.70 m apart. The singers stand against the north wall. The organist faces the

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

4.98 m

Explanation:

Given that

Width of the mirror, d = 0.6 m

Organist distance to the mirror, s = 0.78 m

Distance between the singer and the organist, S = 5.7 + 0.78 = 6.48 m

Width of north wall, D?

Using the simple relationship

D/S = d/s, on rearranging

D = dS /s

D = (0.6 * 6.48) / 0.78

D = 3.888 / 0.78

D = 4.98 m

Therefore, we can conclude that the Width of north wall is 4.98 m

What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

80Ω

Explanation:

Resistance in a series circuit (when one resistor is after another in the same line) is calculated with the following equation

Total resistance = R1 + R2 + R3...Rn

Substitute in your values and solve for total resistance

Total resistance = 60 + 20 = 80Ω

If 0.035pC of charge is transferred via the movement of Al3+ ions, how's many of these must be transferred in total? Please add

mr Goodwill [35]

Each $Al^+^3$ ion contains three extra protons. Hence, the extra charge on each $Al^+^3$ = $3 \times 1.6 \times 10^-^1^9$ C

Total charge = 0.035 pC

Total charge (Q) = $0.035 \times 10^-^1^2$ C

Let the number of $Al^+^3$ ions be n.

According to question:

$n \times 3 \times 1.6 \times 10^-^1^9 =0.035 \times 10^-^1^2$

$n = \frac{0.035 \times 10^-^1^2}{3 \times 1.6 \times 10^-^1^9}$

$n = 7.29167 \times 10^4$

n = 72917

Hence, the total number of ions needed to be transferred is 72917
