Why do your legs appear shorter when standing in water

Physics

Effectus [21]3 years ago

It is because of refraction caused in water. There is difference in the medium between water and air so because of that refraction takes place. Due to this, a person’s legs appear to be shorter to our eyes. Hope this helps!

What changes into energy in the sun?
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The sun generates energy from a process called nuclear fusion. During nuclear fusion, the high pressure and temperature in the sun's core cause nuclei to separate from their electrons. Hydrogen nuclei fuse to form one helium atom. During the fusion process, radiant energy is released. :D

Compare and contrast the strength of the forces between two objects with a mass of 1 kg each, a charge of 10
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Let's see the similarities between the two forces

* are proportional to the product of a magnitude, mass or charge

* They are inversely proportional to the square of the distance

* They are long-range forces since zero is not made up to an infinite distance. The gravitational force is always attractive, the electrical force can be attractive or repulsive.

The differences in them

* The electric force in much greater than the gravitational force

* The gravitational force is always attractive, the electrical force can be attractive or repulsive.

Explanation:

Let's start by calculating each force.

Gravitational force

             F =G \frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}  

let's calculate

             F = 6.67 10⁻¹¹  1  1 / 1²

             F = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ N

Electric force

             F = k \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}  

indicates that the charge is q = 10 C

            F = 9 10⁹ 10 10 / 1²

            F = 9 10¹¹ N

Let's see the similarities between the two forces

* are proportional to the product of a magnitude, mass or charge

* They are inversely proportional to the square of the distance

* They are long-range forces since zero is not made up to an infinite distance. The gravitational force is always attractive, the electrical force can be attractive or repulsive.

The differences in them

* The electric force in much greater than the gravitational force

* The gravitational force is always attractive, the electrical force can be attractive or repulsive.

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 72.0 units. If the charge of object 1 is doubled AND the charge
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

432 units

Explanation:

Let the charges be q and Q separated by a distance r. The electrostatic force , F = kqQ/r² = 72 units. If q = 2q and Q = 3Q, then the new electrostatic force is

F = k × 2q × 3Q/r² = 6kqQ/r² = 6 × 72 = 432 units
