When you look vertically downwards into a swimming pool full of water the bottom of the pool seems closer to you than it really is. The apparent depth at this point can be worked out using the formula:

Apparent depth = Real depth/Refractive index of water

However as you look towards the end of the pool the bottom seems to curve upwards – we are thinking about a pool of constant depth to start with.


If the depth of the pool really does change then the situation becomes more complex and you would need to allow for that when drawing the diagram

Resonance occurs when an object vibrating at or near the resonant frequency of a second object to vibrate. What form of waves ar
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Resonance depends on objects, this may happen for example when you play guitar in a given room, you may find that for some notes the walls or some object vibrate more than for others. This is because those notes are near the frequency of resonance of the walls.

So waves involved are waves that can move or affect objects (in this case the pressure waves of the sound, and the waves that are moving the wall).

this means that the waves are mechanic waves.

Now, in electromagnetics, you also can find resonance frequencies for electromagnetic waves trapped in things called cavities, but this is a different topic.

What do the arrows in this photograph represent
babunello [35]

Answer: D. An action-reaction force pair

Explanation: When you sit in your chair, your body exerts a downward force on the chair and the chair exerts an upward force on your body. There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the chair and a force on your body. Another example would be a person pushing against a wall (action force), and the wall exerts an equal and opposite force against the person.
