Answer:

1) move away from the windows.

When abrupt changes in pressure (produced by the hurricane) affect the windows, they can "explode" and be a serious danger for the people.

2) Go to the lowest level of the building.

Is safer than the upper levels because the lower levels suffer less from the strength of the hurricane (being closer to the ground increases the structural resistance), make sure that you have everything you may need in case of an emergency.

A green light is submerged 2.70 m beneath the surface of a liquid with an index of refraction 1.31. What is the radius of the ci

Anettt [7]

Answer:

The radius is $r = 3.1905 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance beneath the liquid is $d = 2.70 \ m$

The refractive index of the liquid is $n_i = 1.31$

Now the critical value is mathematically represented as

$\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{n_i} ]$

substituting values

$\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{131} ]$

$\theta = 49.76^o$

Using SOHCAHTOA rule we have that

$tan \theta = \frac{ r}{d}$

=> $r = d * tan \theta$

substituting values

$r = 2.7 * tan (49.76)$

$r = 3.1905 \ m$

A projectile is launched horizontally from a 20-m tall edifice with a vox of 25 m/s. How long will it take for the projectile to

NISA [10]

Answer:

a) First let's analyze the vertical problem:

When the projectile is on the air, the only vertical force acting on it is the gravitational force, then the acceleration of the projectile is the gravitational acceleration, and we can write this as:

a(t) = -9.8m/s^2

To get the vertical velocity we need to integrate over time to get:

v(t) = (-9.8m/s^2)*t + v0

where v0 is the initial vertical velocity because the object is thrown horizontally, we do not have any initial vertical velocity, then v0 = 0m/s

v(t) = (-9.8m/s^2)*t

To get the vertical position equation we need to integrate over time again, to get:

p(t) = (1/2)*(-9.8m/s^2)*t^2 + p0

where p0 is the initial position, in this case is the height of the edifice, 20m

then:

p(t) = (-4.9m/s^2)*t^2+ 20m

The projectile will hit the ground when p(t) = 0m, then we need to solve:

(-4.9m/s^2)*t^2+ 20m = 0m

20m = (4.9m/s^2)*t^2

√(20m/ (4.9m/s^2)) = t = 2.02 seconds

The correct option is a.

b) The range will be the total horizontal distance traveled by the projectile, as we do not have any horizontal force, we know that the horizontal velocity is 25 m/s constant.

Now we can use the relationship:

distance = speed*time

We know that the projectile travels for 2.02 seconds, then the total distance that it travels is:

distance = 2.02s*25m/s = 50.5m

Here the correct option is a.

c) Again, the horizontal velocity never changes, is 25m/s constantly, then here the correct option is option b. 25m/s

d) Here we need to evaluate the velocity equation in t = 2.02 seconds, this is the velocity of the projectile when it hits the ground.

v(2.02s) = (-9.8m/s^2)*2.02s = -19.796 m/s

The velocity is negative because it goes down, and it matches with option d, so I suppose that the correct option here is option d (because the sign depends on how you think the problem)

What happens to the magnitude of the gravitational force as the distance between two bodies increase?

Anna [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force will decrease

Explanation:

The gravitational force is one of the four fundamental forces of nature. It is an attractive force exerted between every object having mass.

Its magnitude is given by the equation:

$F=\frac{Gm_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1 is the mass of the first object

m2 is the mass of the second object

r is the separation between the objects

As we see from the equation, the magnitude of the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects:

$F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}$

Therefore, this means that as the distance between two bodies increases, the gravitational force will decrease.
