Answer:
Refraction
Explanation:
When light passes from a rarer medium into a denser medium, it bends in the medium away from the normal. This creates the phenomenon of "apparent depth" as given in the question.
Answer:
2.2 s
Explanation:
Using the equation for the period of a physical pendulum, T = 2π√(I/mgh) where I = moment of inertia of leg about perpendicular axis at one point = mL²/3 where m = mass of man = 67 kg and L = height of man = 1.83 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and h = distance of leg from center of gravity of man = L/2 (center of gravity of a cylinder)
So, T = 2π√(I/mgh)
T = 2π√(mL²/3 /mgL/2)
T = 2π√(2L/3g)
substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
T = 2π√(2L/3g)
T = 2π√(2 × 1.83 m/(3 × 9.8 m/s² ))
T = 2π√(3.66 m/(29.4 m/s² ))
T = 2π√(0.1245 s² ))
T = 2π(0.353 s)
T = 2.22 s
T ≅ 2.2 s
So, the period of the man's leg is 2.2 s
Answer:
<em>The lighten travels 0.853 miles.</em>
Explanation:
Sound: Sound is a form of wave which is conveyed through an elastic medium from a vibrating body to a listener.
v = 2x/t .......................................... Equation 1
making x the subject of the equation
x = vt/2........................................ Equation 2
Where v = velocity of sound in air, x = distance traveled by the sound, t = time
Given: v = 344 m/s t = 8 s
Substituting into equation 2
x = 344(8)/2
x = 1376 m.
x = 1376×0.00062 miles = 0.853 miles
<em>Thus the lighten travels 0.853 miles.</em>
Answer:
It is said that the negative charge moves because the electrons in the atoms of any object are taken or given to the atoms of another object.
Explanation:
The atom is made up of protons, electrons and neutrons. The number of protons is exactly the same to the number of electrons for a certain element. For example, hydrogen: it has a proton, and therefore, an electron.
The electron has a negative charge. The proton has a positive charge. And the neutron has no charge, so it is neutral. While the atom has the same number of protons and electrons, it will not be electrically charged.
An example of how a charge exchange occurs between two objects is through the case of rubbing. This makes the atoms of the two objects close enough that there is an electron transfer, causing any of the objects to gain or lose electrons as a consequence of each other interaction. In the case of transferring electrons, the atom will have a greater number of protons, so it will be positively charged. When the atom receive electrons, it will have a greater number of electrons, so it will be negatively charged.
Therefore, since it is the electrons that move from one atom to another, then it is the negative charge that moves (<em>characterized by the electrons</em>) and not the positive charge (<em>characterized by the protons</em>).
Answer:
A car accelerating to the right
Explanation:
The free-body diagram shows all the forces acting on an object. The length of each arrow is proportional to the magnitude of the force represented by that arrow.
In this free-body diagram, we see that there are 4 forces acting on the object, in 4 different directions. We also see that the two vertical forces are equal so they are balanced, while the force to the rigth is larger than the force to the left: this means that there is a net force to the right, so the object is accelerating to the right.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A car accelerating to the right
