Six members of a synchronized swim team wear earplugs to protect themselves against water pressure at depths, but they can still

hear the music and perform the combinations in the water perfectly. One day, they were asked to leave the pool so the dive team could practice a few dives, and they tried to practice on a mat, but seemed to have a lot more difficulty. Why might this be

Answer:

The sound travels differently in different medium according the density of the medium.

Explanation:

The sound travels faster in dense medium and can be heard by the vibration of the bone present in the ear. The ear plugs reduce the sound intensity in both medium water and on land (air).

In air the sound is not heard properly due to the earplugs that stops the as the vibration are not able to produce as sound is not able to reach to middle ear, but Navy researchers have discovered that sound under water is heard by the bone present behind the ear, vibrations mastoid.

A river is flowing south at a rate of 3 m/s. Steven can roe directly across the river if he aims the raft 30 degrees. What rate
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Steven has to row at a speed to reach the same horizontal spot at the other side of the river is, V = 6 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The river flowing south at the rate, v = 3 m/s

To reach the other side directly across the river, he aims the raft, Ф = 30°

The speed of his raft across the river is given by the formula,

                                          V = v / Sin Ф

                                             = 3 / Sin 30°

                                              = 6 m/s

Steven has to row at a speed to reach the same horizontal spot at the other side of the river is, V = 6 m/s

What current is needed to generate the magnetic field strength of 5.0×10−5T at a point 1.5 cm from a long, straight wire? Expres
mixer [17]

Answer:

3.7 A

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Magnetic field strength, B = 5 * 10^(-5) T

Distance of magnetic field from wire, r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

The magnetic field, B, due to a current, I, flowing a wire is given as:

B = (μ₀*I) / 2πr

Where μ₀ = permeability of free space

To get the current, I, we make I the subject of the formula:

I = (2πr * B) / μ₀

I = (2 * 3.142 * 5 * 10^(-5)) / (1.25663706 × 10^(-6))

I = 3.7 A

A block of amber is placed in water and a laser beam travels from the water through the amber. The angle of incidence is 35 degr
7nadin3 [17]
Answer: 1.88

Explanation

Applying Snell’s Law, sin(1)/sin(2) = n(2)/n(1), where n is the index of refraction and sin 1 and 2 being of incidence and refracted respectively.

1) sin35/sin24 = n(2)/1.33
2) 1.41 = n(2)/1.33
3) n(2) = 1.41 x 1.33
4) n(2) = 1.88

Hope this helps :)

A position vector with magnitude 10 m points to the right and up. its x-component is 6.0 m. part a what is the value of its y-co
lidiya [134]

The position vector can be transcribed as:

A<span> = 6 i + y j                           </span>

i <span>points in the x-direction and j points in the y-direction.</span>

The magnitude of the vector is its dot product with itself:

<span>|A|2 = A·A</span>

<span>102  = (6 i + y j)•(6 i+ y j)            Note that i•j = 0, and  i•i  = j•j = 1 </span>

<span>100  = 36 + y2       </span>

<span>64    = y2</span>

<span>get the square root of 64 = 8</span>

<span>The vertical component of the vector is 8 cm.</span>
