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

Explain what the star looks like to Jane
S_A_V [24]
The star looks like a desirable hunk of masculinity to Jane. But to John, the star looks like a wimpy momma's boy who might compete with him for Jane's attention. Jane and John have different impressions of the star because of their gender-specific instincts that have evolved during thousands of millenia of human evolution.

What force is required to accelerate a body with a mass of 15 kilograms at a rate of 8 m/s²?
mihalych1998 [28]

Newton's Second law of motion: 

                  Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                  Force = (15kg) x (8m/s²) = 120 kg-m/s² = 120 newtons

A force of 100N is applied to an area of 100mm².what is the pressure exerted on the area in N/m².​
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

P = 1000000[Pa] = 1000 [kPa]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of pressure, which is equal to the relationship of force over area.

P=F/A

where:

P = pressure [Pa] (units of pascals)

F = force = 100 [N]

A = area = 100 [mm²]

But first we must convert the units from square millimeters to square meters.

A=100[mm^{2}]*\frac{1^{2} m^{2} }{1000^{2}mm^{2}  } =0.0001[m^{2} ]

Now replacing:

P=100/0.0001\\P=1000000[Pa]

On a hot day, the temperature of a 65,000-L swimming pool increases by 1.20°C. What is the net heat transfer during this heating
vichka [17]

Answer:

326149.2 KJ

Explanation:

The heat transfer toward and object that suffered an increase in temperature can be calculated using the expression:

Q = m*cv*ΔT

Where m is the mass of the object, cv is the specific heat capacity at constant volume, which basically means the amount of heat necessary for a 1kg of water to increase 1C degree in temperatur, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

A 65000 L swimming pool will have a mass of:

65000L *\frac{1m^3}{1000L} * \frac{1000kg}{1m^3} = 65000 kg

The specific heat capacity at constant volume of water is equal to 4.1814 KJ/KgC.

We replace the data and get:

Q = m*cv*ΔT = 65000 kg * 4.1814 KJ/KgC * 1.2°C = 326149.2 KJ
