Answer:

5.3 cm

Explanation:

This question is an illustration of real and apparent distance.

From the question, we have the following given parameters

Real Distance, R = 8.0cm

Refractive Index, μ = 1.5

Required

Determine the apparent distance (A)

The relationship between R, A and μ is:

μ = R/A

i.e.

Refractive Index = Real Distance ÷ Apparent Distance

Substitute values in the above formula

1.5 = 8/A

Multiply both sides by A

1.5 * A = A * 8/A

1.5A = 8

Divide both side by 1.5

1.5A/1.5 = 8/1.5

A = 8/1.5

A = 5.3cm

Hence, the letters would appear at a distance of 5.3cm

zimovet [89]

Look at the title of the graph, in small print under it.

Each point is "compared to 1950-1980 baseline". So the set of data for those years is being compared to itself. No wonder it matches up pretty close !

<span>d) Stretch it out , trunk tip to tail tip - call it 10 m </span>

<span>e) Your choice 100 m or 1000 m..... These are estimates. So long as you are within one order of magnitude you can't really be given wrong. So I'd say 100m</span>

svlad2 [7]

The correct answer is  1.4285714.

In physics, velocity is characterised as a vector measurement of the motion's direction and speed. To be more precise, the rate of change in an object's position relative to a frame of reference and time is another way to describe velocity. The definition of velocity simply states the rate of motion of an object in a specific direction. It determines how quickly or slowly something is going.

Velocity = distance/ time  

Thus time = distance/velocity

Here velocity = 350m/s

diatnce = 500 m

time = 500/350

time = 1.42857142857

t= 200m /350m/s  = 1.4285714
