The statement “When
an object is in orbit, it is falling at the same rate at which the Earth is
curving” is true. The speed of a satellite orbiting the earth depends only on
the mass of the earth and the mass of the satellite.
Answer:
no
Explanation:
due to the refraction of light,meaning bending of light when it passes from diffrent mediums with diffrent densities
(probably mot the complete ans but smtg like this)
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the critical angle be C .
sinC = 1 / μ where μ is index of refraction .
sinC = 1 /1.2
= .833
C = 56°
Then angle of refraction r = 90 - 56 = 34 ( see the image in attached file )
sin i / sinr = 1.2 , i is angle of incidence
sini = 1.2 x sinr = 1.2 x sin 34 = .67
i = 42°.
