Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Apparent depth = 2.00 m,  refractive index = 1.33

It is known that formula to calculate real depth is as follows.

   The refractive index = \frac{\text{real depth}}{\text{apparent depth}}

or,       real depth = refractive index × apparent depth

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

               real depth = 1.33 × 2

                                 = 2.66 m

Thus, we can conclude that the actual (real) depth of the fish is 2.66 m.

Answer:

Actual depth = 2.66 m

Explanation:

Given:

Apparent depth = Depth of fish as seen below the surface of water = D_{a} = 2 m

Refractive index of water = n = 1.33

Actual depth is related to the apparent depth as follows:

n = D_{r} / D_{a}

⇒ Actual depth = D_{r} = n × D_{a}

                                                      = (1.33) ( 2 ) = 2.66 m

If the Earth and distant stars were stationary (motionless) in space, what would we observe about the wavelength from these star

Laskar, J.: 1990, The chaotic motion of the solar system. A numerical estimate of the size of the chaotic zones, Icarus, 88, 266
balandron [24]

The chaotic nature of the Solar System excluding Pluto was established by the numerical computation of the maximum Lyapunov exponent of its secular system over 200 myr.

<h3>What is chaotic motion of the solar system ?</h3>

There has been an increase in awareness of chaotic dynamics in the solar system over the past 20 years. The orbits of tiny objects in the solar system, such as asteroids, comets, and interplanetary dust, are now known to be chaotic and to experience significant variations across geological time periods.

  • a completely unpredictable orbit, or one where significant changes in the orbit can result from even small changes in the position and/or velocity of the orbiting entity.

When you have two like charges in a line â where is the electric field the greatest? is there ever a point where the field will
Vesna [10]

The magnitude of the electric field will be the greatest at the point where it is closest,to its charges.

Yes ,there is a point where the field will be zero.

what is an electric field?

The region where an electrostatic force is experienced by a charged entity is known as the electric field at a point.

As per the principle of field lines and vectors,where the field lines are in a close manner together,the field will be strongest.However ,where the field lines are in a manner apart,the field will be the weakest.

As per the concept,the electric field will be the greatest at the point where it is closest to its charges.For like charges, the electric field will be zero closer to the smaller charge and will be along the line joining the two charges. For opposite charges of equal magnitude, there will not be any zero electric fields.

Thus,we can conclude that there will be a point where the electric field is zero
