The answer would be '<span>The plane of a Foucault pendulum appears to shift its orientation' because it is an experiment to demonstrate the rotation of the earth.
Hope this helps.</span>
Answer:
The speed of light is that medium is 281907786.2 m/s.
Explanation:
since the critical angle is Фc = 430, we know that the refractive index is given by:
n = 1/sin(Фc)
= 1/sin(430)
= 1.06
then if n is the refractive index of the medium and c is the speed of light, then the speed of light in the medium is given by:
v = c/n
= (3×10^8)/(1.06)
= 281907786.2 m/s
Therefore, the speed of light is that medium is 281907786.2 m/s.

Explanation:
because it doesn't specify where the strings are attached
if it was the two ends of the rod then T1 would be equal to T2
Answer:
1. 0.45 s.
2. 4.41 m/s
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Height (h) = 1 m
Time (t) =?
Velocity (v) =?
1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.
Height (h) = 1 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) =?
h = ½gt²
1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²
1 = 4.9 × t²
Divide both side by 4.8
t² = 1/4.9
Take the square root of both side
t = √(1/4.9)
t = 0.45 s.
Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.
2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) = 0.45 s.
Final velocity (v) =?
v = u + gt
v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)
v = 0 + 4.41
v = 4.41 m/s
Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s
Answer:
Speed; v = 17 m/s
Explanation:
We are given;
Radius; r = 110m
Angle; θ = 15°
Now, we know that in circular motion,
v² = rg•tanθ
Thus,
v = √(rg•tanθ)
Where,
v is velocity
r is radius
g is acceleration due to gravity
θ is the angle
Thus,
v = √(rg•tanθ) = √(110 x 9.8•tan15)
v = √(288.85)
v = 17 m/s
