Answer:

2.3*10^8m/s

Explanation:

Using

V = c/n

Where c= speed of light

n = refractive index of water

By substituting

We have

V= 3*10^8m/s/1.33

= 2.3*10^8m/s

How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a vehicle traveling at 30 mph compared to the same vehicle traveling at
Maru [420]
Well you of course have different kinetic energies with the two speeds.
Kinetic energy = (1/2)*mass*velocity^2
The vehicle's mass is the same in both cases, so we can ignore that as well as 1/2 since it's a constant.
So we have (30)^2 vs (60^2)
which is 900 vs 3600
So having 60 mph compared to 30 mph is 4 times the kinetic energy.

Can someone help me with this real quick?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

7,546 J

Explanation:

recall that Potential energy is given by

P.E = mgΔh

where m = 70kg (given)

g = 9.8 m/s² (acceleration due to gravity)

Δh = change in height

= distance from top of building to top of car

= height of building - height of car

= (5+8) - 2

= 11m

substituting all these into the equation:

P.E = mgΔh

= 70 x 9.8 x 11

= 7,546 J

When are you most aware of your motion in a moving vehicle: when it is moving steadily in a straight line or when it is accelera
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

A) Accelerating. You would not be aware of the motion if you did not look outside the car

Explanation:

Since human cannot sense the motion (unless visually), but the inertia force caused due to the acceleration of the motion. So if you are in a car with constant velocity, there's no acceleration and no inertia force, you would not be able to sense the motion at all unless you look outside.
