Answer:

If the basket ball appears orange then it can be said that it reflects orange light

Explanation:

The color of the object reflected by an object is the color which is viewed by a viewer. Hence, if the basket ball reflects the orange color light , then the ball will appear orange in color to the viewer.

The light absorbed by the object has no role in deciding the color of the object visible to a viewer.

hence, if the basket ball appears orange then it can be said that it reflects orange light.

This problem follows up on a discussion from lecture. A wind turbine with an efficiency of 45% for converting wind energy into e

Volgvan

Answer:

4.1 m

Explanation:

10 kW = 10000 W

20mi/h = 20*1.6 km/mi = 32 km/h = 32 * 1000 (m/km) *(1/3600) hr/s = 8.89 m/s

The power yielded by the wind turbine can be calculated using the following formula

$P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^3 A C_p$

where $\rho = 1.2 kg/m^3$ is the air density, v = 8.89 m/s is the wind speed, A is the swept area and $C_p = 0.45$ is the efficiency

$10000 = 0.5 * 1.2 * 8.89^3 * A * 0.45$

$10000 = 190A$

$A = 10000 / 190 = 52.7 m^2$

The swept area is a circle with radius r being the blade length

$\pi r^2 = A = 52.7$

$r^2 = 52.7 / \pi = 16.79$

$r = \sqrt{16.79} = 4.1 m$

5. Bill is swimming and drops his swim goggles in the pool. He looks from above the top of the water to see where they fell and

Alexus [3.1K]

The interaction of light that distorted the image of where Bill's goggles appear to be is Refraction.

<h3>What happens to the speed of light when it hits water in a swimming pool?</h3>

The light slows down when it passes from the less dense air into the water, this slow down of the ray of light which causes the ray of light to change direction and then the changes the speed of the light that causes refraction.

The swimming pool appears shallow than it appear to be because the rays of light coming from the bottom of the swimming pool that is refracted by the water making the height of the swimming pool to be above the actual swimming pool bed and there by misleading the observer(Bill).
