Cleo stated that light travels through air in straight paths, and when it moves from air to water, light changes direction, spee

ds up, and bends toward the normal.
Which statement best describes Cleo’s mistake?

Light travels through air and water in angled, scattered paths.
Light does not change direction when it moves from air into water.
Light slows down when it moves from air into water.
Light bends away from the normal when it moves from air into water.

Answer:

Light slows down when it moves from air into water.

Explanation:

It is the property of light that travels faster in a less dense medium.

In a more dense medium, the speed of the light slows down and bends towards the normal.

The air is less dense medium and water is a more dense medium.

When light passes from air to water, the light bends.

This is known as the refraction of light.

a wire of a certain material has resistance r and diameter d a second wire of the same material and length is found to have resi
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

<h2>d₂ = 3d</h2><h2>The diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire.</h2>

Explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the resistivity of an object to find the diameter.

Resistivity P = RA/L

R is the resistance of the material

A is the cross sectional area

L is the length of the material

Since A = πd²/4

P = R( πd²/4)/L

P = Rπd²/4L ... 1

If the second wire of the same material and length is found to have resistance R/9, the resistivity of the second material will be;

P₂ = (R/9)A₂/L₂

P₂ = (R/9)(πd₂²/4)/L₂

P₂ = (Rπd₂²/36)/L₂

P₂ = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂

Since the length and resistivity are the same;

P = P₂  and L =L₂

Equating 1 and 2;

Rπd²/4L =  (Rπd₂²)/36L₂

Rπd²/4L =  (Rπd₂²)/36L

d² = d₂²/9

d₂² = 9d²

Taking the square root of both sides;

√d₂² = √9d²

d₂ = 3d

Therefore the diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire

A photovoltaic panel of dimension 2 m × 4 m is installed on the roof of a home. The panel is irradiated with a solar flux of GS
Flura [38]

Answer:

(a) the electrical power generated for still summer day is 1013.032 W

(b)the electrical power generated for a breezy winter day is 1270.763 W

Explanation:

Given;

Area of panel = 2 m × 4 m, = 8m²

solar flux  GS = 700 W/m²

absorptivity of the panel, αS = 0.83

efficiency of conversion, η = P/αSGSA = 0.553 − 0.001 K⁻¹ Tp

panel emissivity , ε = 0.90

Apply energy balance equation to determine he electrical power generated;  

transferred energy + generated energy = 0

(radiation + convection) +  generated energy = 0

[\alpha_sG_s-\epsilon \alpha(T_p^4-T_s^4)]-h(T_p-T_\infty) - \eta \alpha_s G_s = 0

[\alpha_sG_s-\epsilon \alpha(T_p^4-T_s^4)]-h(T_p-T_\infty) - (0.553-0.001T_p)\alpha_s G_s

(a) the electrical power generated for still summer day

T_s = T_{\infty} = 35 ^oC = 308 \ k

[0.83*700-0.9*5.67*10^{-8}(T_p_1^4-308^4)]-10(T_p_1-308) - (0.553-0.001T_p_1)0.83*700 = 0\\\\3798.94-5.103*10^{-8}T_p_1^4 - 9.419T_p_1 = 0\\\\Apply \  \ iteration \ method \ to \ solve \ for \ T_p_1\\\\T_p_1 = 335.05 \ k

P = \eta \alpha_s G_s A = (0.553-0.001 T_p_1)\alpha_s G_s A \\\\P = (0.553-0.001 *335.05)0.83*700*8 \\\\P = 1013.032 \ W

(b)the electrical power generated for a breezy winter day

T_s = T_{\infty} = -15 ^oC = 258 \ k

[0.83*700-0.9*5.67*10^{-8}(T_p_2^4-258^4)]-10(T_p_2-258) - (0.553-0.001T_p_2)0.83*700 = 0\\\\8225.81-5.103*10^{-8}T_p_2^4 - 29.419T_p_2 = 0\\\\Apply \  \ iteration \ method \ to \ solve \ for \ T_p_2\\\\T_p_2 = 279.6 \ k

P = \eta \alpha_s G_s A = (0.553-0.001 T_p_2)\alpha_s G_s A \\\\P = (0.553-0.001 *279.6)0.83*700*8 \\\\P = 1270.763 \ W

Describe the initial horizontal and vertical velocity of a horizontally launched projectile on Earth, as well as what happens to
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

To explain this, let's consider a tennis ball being launched from the top of a very high building.

Now, if the tennis ball is launched horizontally without any upward angle but with an initial velocity of 10 m/s. In this motion, If there is no gravity, the tennis ball would continue in motion at that same speed of 10 m/s in the horizontal direction. However, in reality, gravity causes the tennis ball to accelerate downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s for every second. This implies that the vertical velocity component is changing at the rate of 9.8 m/s every second.

Thus, after 1 second, horizontal velocity component will remain 10 m/s and vertical component will be 9.8 m/s × 1 = 9.8 m/s downwards.

Also, after 2 seconds, the vertical velocity component will remain 10 m/s, however the vertical component will now be 9.8 × 2 = 19.6 m/s downwards.

Same procedure is repeated as t increases by 1 second.

The speed of sound at temperature of________in the air is 360m/s.​
Aleks04 [339]

Vo= 331+0.6T

360=331+0.6T

360-331=0.6T

29=0.6T

0.6T/29

T=6/290 so change it to simplest form and us formulas good luck
