Answer:

The  length is  D  =  5 \ cm

Explanation:

From the question we are told  that

     The  length of the  hand is  l  =  10.0 \ cm

      The  angle at the hand is  held is  \theta  =  30 ^o

Generally resolving the length the length of the hand to it vertical component we obtain that the length of the shadow on the vertical wall is mathematically evaluated as

             D  =  l * sin(\theta )

substituting values

             D  =  10 * sin (30)

             D  =  5 \ cm

What could you do to change the volume of a gas?
Lorico [155]
The ONLY way to change the volume of a sample of gas is to transfer it to a container with different volume.
Simply changing its temperature or pressure in the same jar won't do it. Any amount of gas always fills whatever container you keep it in.

Amy uses 20N of force to push a lawn mower 10 meters. How much work does she do? *
babunello [35]

She does 200J .

We know she uses 20N of force and 10m is the distance. We multiply both numbers and we are given our answer of 200J. Hope this was helpful. :)

Light propagating in the glass n1= 1.65 wall of an aquarium tank strikes the interior edge of the wall with incidence angle 19.0
jonny [76]
We can solve this using Snell's Law which is represented by the equation:
sin θ₁ / sin θ₂ = n₂ / n₁

From the problem, we can substitute values and solve for the angle of refraction.
sin 19 / sin θ₂ = 1.65 / 1
θ₂ = 11.38°

The angle of refraction would be 11.38°.
