Answer:

Explanation:
Given that,
The speed of an electromagnetic wave traveling in a transparent nonmagnetic substance is given by :

Where
k is the dielectric constant of the substance.
v is the speed of light in water


So, the speed of light in water is 
<span> The term for the depth of the water needed to make a boat afloat is called the draft of the boat. It can be measured as the distance from the water surface down the lowest point of the vessel. It can be imagined as the submerged portion of the boat during navigation.</span>
speed at end is accn of gravity x time
9.81x12=just over98.1m/s
Answer:
a) the acceleration is -9.8 m/s^2 (gravity's acceleration), the magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2 and the direction is downwards.
The pebble is not decelerating since the magnitude of it's speed is increasing, even if it is on a negative direction.
b) after 0.5 s the pebble is 5.725 meters down. (or -5.725m from it's initial position.)
Explanation:
a) the acceleration is given only by gravity, it's the only force acting on the pebble, the slingshot only gives the pebble an initial speed.
b) To calculate the position we use the equation
y0 + v0·t + ½·g·t² = yf
replacing:
0 + (-9.0m/s) * 0.5s + 1/2 (-9.8)*0.5² = yf
-5.725 = yf
24- series
25- parallel
26- no, because they’re connected in series
27- yes, because they’re connected in parallel
