Answer:

when the ground is very hot and the air is cool.

Explanation:

The hot earth warms a layer of air right above the ground. Light is refracted as it passes through the cool air and onto the hot air sheet (bent). A coating of very warm air near the earth bends the light from the sky almost into a U-shaped bend.

Answer: when the ground is very hot and the air is cool. The hot ground warms a layer of air just above the ground. When the light moves through the cold air and into the layer of hot air it is refracted (bent). A layer of very warm air near the ground refracts the light from the sky nearly into a U-shaped bend.

Moving 4.0 coulombs of charge through a circuit

Galina-37 [17]

We know that V=E/Q Where V is the PD, E is the energy, and Q is the charge.

Substituting in the values gives V=48/4=12

Therefore the PD across the circuit is 12V

You hold a metal block of mass 40 kg above your head at a height of 2 m.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

The work done by gravity is 784 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the block is, $m=40\ kg$

Height to which it is raised is, $h=2\ m$

Acceleration due to gravity is, $g=9.8\ m/s^2$

Now, work done by gravity is equal to the product of force of gravity and the distance moved in the direction of gravity. So,

$\textrm{Work by gravity}=F_g\times h$

Force of gravity is given as the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

$\therefore F_g=mg=40\times 9.8=392\ N$ . Now,

$\textrm{Work by gravity}=F_g\times h=392\times 2=784\ J$

Therefore, the work done by gravity is 784 J.

An 8-inch dinner knife is sitting on a circular plate so that its ends are on the edge of the plate. if the minor arc that is in

Makovka662 [10]

When we form a right triangle connecting the edge of the knife to the center of the circle and the center of the knife to the center of the circle, the radius of the circle becomes the hypotenuse. Using the trigonometric function,
sin 60° = opposite / hypotenuse = 4 / hypotenuse
The value of the hypotenuse is 4.62 inches. Then, the diameter is twice this value which is 9.24 inches.
