Answer: 1.65m

Explanation:

Refractive index in terms of the depth of liquid is the ratio of the real depth to the apparent depth of the liquid i.e Refractive index =Real depth/apparent depth

Refractive index of water given = 1.33

Real depth is the measure of how deep is the liquid while apparent depth is the depth at the surface of the liquid.

Real depth = 2.2m

Apparent depth =?

Applying the formula above

Apparent depth =Real depth/refractive index

= 2.2/1.33

= 1.65m

Therefore, the circle of light that exits the surface of the water when that light shines in the middle of the night is 1.65m wide

Emily wanted to see what battery lasted the longest. She put each battery into a clock and recorded the time that the clock stop
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the following variables:

Independent variable (IV): Battery

Dependent variable (DV): Time the clock stopped

Constant: Same clock

Control: No stated control

Explanation:

The independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is subject to manipulation or change by the experimenter. In this experiment, the independent variable is the BATTERIES (Duracell, Energizer, Kroger brand, EverReady).

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable. It is the variable that the experimenter measures. In this case, the dependent variable is the TIME IT TAKES FOR THE CLOCK TO STOP.

Constants or control variable is the variable that the experimenter keeps constant or unchanged for all groups throughout the experiment in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment. The constant in this case is the SAME CLOCK USED.

Control group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment or independent variable in an experiment. In this case, all groups received a different kind of battery.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive technique used to stimulate regions of the human brain. A small coil is
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

0.125 volts

Explanation:

The induced emf can be sufficient to stimulate neuronal activity.

One such device generates a magnetic field within the brain that rises from zero to 1.5 T in 120 ms.

We need to find the induced emf within a circle of tissue of radius 1.6 mm and that is perpendicular to the direction of the field. The formula for the induced emf is given by :

\epsilon=-\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}

Where

\phi is magnetic flux

So,

\epsilon=-\dfrac{d(BA)}{dt}\\\\=2\pi r\times \dfrac{dB}{dt}\\\\=2\pi \times 1.6\times 10^{-3}\times \dfrac{1.5-0}{120\times 10^{-3}}\\\\=0.125\ V

So, the induced emf is equal to 0.125 volts.

List the following types of electromagnetic radiation in order of increasing wavelength:(i) the gamma rays produced by a radioac
Naddik [55]

Answer:

In order of increasing wavelength, the answer is:

(i) The gamma rays produced by a radioactive nuclide used in medical imaging

(iv) The yellow light from sodium-vapor streetlights

(v) The red light of a light emitting diode, such as in a calculator display

(ii) Radiation from an FM radio station at 93.1 MHz on the dial

(iii) A radio signal from an AM radio station at 680kHz on the dial

Explanation:

First, you have to know that the wavelength of a sinusoidal wave traveling at a constant speed is given by:  

                                       λ = \frac{v}{f}

Where λ is the wavelength, v is the constant speed and f is the wave's frequency. In the case of electromagnetic radiation in free space, the constant speed is the speed of light.

From explained above, you can conclude that there is a proportionality relationship between the wavelength and the frequency, they are inversely proportional. That means: the highest frequency will have the shortest wavelength and vice-versa.

So, you have the following types:

(i) The gamma rays produced by a radioactive nuclide used in medical imaging

Frequency : Typically greater than 10^{19} Hz

(ii) Radiation from an FM radio station at 93.1 MHz on the dial

Frequency: 93.1 MHz

(iii) A radio signal from an AM radio station at 680 kHz on the dial

Frequency: 680 kHz

(iv) The yellow light from sodium-vapor streetlights

Frequency: Visible spectrum of approx. 508 - 526 THz

(v) The red light of a light-emitting diode, such as in a calculator display

Frequency: Visible spectrum of approx. 400 - 484 THz

Then, you have to organize them from the highest frequency to the smallest one (decreasing frequency), and as the highest frequency will have the shortest wavelength, you are going to have it organized in an increasing wavelength mode.

Then in order of increasing wavelength, the answer will be:

                                           (i) , (iv), (v), (ii), (iii)
