While falling, both the sheet of paper and the paper ball experience air resistance. But the surface area of the sheet is much more than that of the spherical ball. And air resistance varies directly with surface area. Hence the sheet experiences more air resistance than the ball and it falls more slowly than the paper ball.
Hope that helps!
Answer:
Zero
Explanation:
As force acting on the body is equal to the product of mass and acceleration.
Acceleration is equal to rate of change in velocity.
Here velocity is constant so acceleration is zero.
It means the net force acting on the vehicle is zero.
Answer:
0.139 rad
Explanation:
We use Snell's law
, where if
is the <em>refractive index</em> of the medium containing the <em>incident ray</em>,
would be the <em>incident angle</em>, and if
is the <em>refractive index</em> of the medium containing the <em>refracted ray</em>,
would be the <em>refraction angle</em>, which we want, so we do:

And finally:

We then insert our values:
