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

What is the angular speed of (a) the second hand, (b) the minute hand, and (c) the hour hand of a smoothly running analog watch?
Agata [3.3K]
A)We know the formula of the angular speed is                 ω = 2π / TWhere T is the time period.When second hand completes one revolution then the time taken is 60s.So T = 60sThen the angular speed of the second hand is          ω= 2π / (60s)             = 0.1047 rad/sb)When the minute hand completes one revolution the time taken is             T = 1 hr                = 3600sThen the angular speed of the minute hand is         ω =(2π) / (3600s) = 0.001745 rad/sc)When the hour hand completes one revolution then the timeperiod is          T = 12hrs             = (12)(3600)sThen the angular speed of the hour hand is         ω =(2π) / [(12)(3600)s] = 1.45444 x 10^-4 rad/s

A total Δν of 15 km/s is required to achieve an interplanetary mission. The proposed rocket has two stages. The first stage alon
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

102000 kg

Explanation:

Given:

A total Δν = 15 km/s

first stage mass = 1000 tonnes

specific impulse of liquid rocket =  300 s

Mass flow rate of liquid fuel = 1500 kg/s

specific impulse of solid fuel = 250 s

Mass flow of solid fuel = 200 kg/s

First stage burn time = 1 minute = 1 × 60 seconds = 60 seconds

Now,

Mass flow of liquid fuel in 1 minute = Mass flow rate × Burn time

or

Mass flow of liquid fuel in 1 minute = 1500 × 60 = 90000 kg

Also,

Mass flow of solid fuel in 1 minute = Mass flow rate × Burn time

or

Mass flow of solid fuel in 1 minute = 200 × 60 = 12000 kg

Therefore,

The total jettisoned mass flow of the fuel in first stage

= 90000 kg +  12000 kg

= 102000 kg

What unit is used to measure the period of a wave?
mixer [17]

Answer:

D. Meters/Seconds

Explanation:

The time period of a wave is measured in seconds.

A typical wave involves both time and distance.  Consider a sound wave, which is basically a periodic modulation of the local air pressure.  We "hear" the sound because our ears respond to the variations of pressure.

The most common metric of a sound wave is frequency.  This is the rate at which the change in pressure occurs, and is measured in cycles per second, formally known as "hertz".  The period is the inverse of frequency andl has the units of seconds per cycle, commonly stated simply as seconds.
