Answer:
<em>a) below the observed position</em>
<em>b) directly at the observed position</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
If I'm standing on the bank of a stream, and I wish to spear a fish swimming in the water out in front of me, I would aim below the observed fish to make a direct hit. This is because the phenomenon of refraction of light in water causes the light coming from the fish is refract away from the normal as it passes into the air and into my eyes.
If I'm to zap the fish with a taser, I would aim directly at the observed fish because the laser (a form of concentrated light waves) will refract into the water, taking the same path the light from the fish took to get to my eyes.
Answer:
0.125 m
Explanation:
In this problem, we have:
v = 0.50 m/s is the average velocity of the wave
T = 0.25 s is the period of the wave
We can find the frequency of the wave, which is equal to the reciprocal of the period:

The problem is asking us to find the distance between two crests of the wave: this is equivalent to the wavelength. The wavelength is related to the average velocity and the frequency by the formula:

Substituting the numerical values, we find

The expression for the frictional force between the sled and the ground is:

where

is the coefficient of friction, m is the mass of the object and

is the gravitational acceleration.
The friction force in our problem is F=80.85 N. The mass of the object is m=15 kg. Re-arranging the formula, we can find the value of k:
Answer:
x rays is the correct answer
Answer:
7.5 x 10⁻⁸N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass 1 = 60kg
Mass 2 = 75kg
Distance between the bodies = 2m
Unknown:
Gravitational fore = ?
Solution:
The gravitational force between the two bodies can be derived using;
F =
G is the universal gravitation constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹m³kg⁻¹s⁻²
Insert the parameters and solve;
F =
= 7.5 x 10⁻⁸N
