i

the pencil appears to be bent when dipped in water because the reflected light ray from the immersed part of the pencil refracts when travels from water to air. however, it appears to be bent because our eyes expect light to travel in straight line

Briefly describe the formation of the planets from the solar nebula
saul85 [17]
<span>The formation of the Solar System began 4.6 billion years ago with the gravitational collapse of a small part of a giant molecular cloud. Most of the collapsing mass collected in the center, forming the Sun, while the rest flattened into a proto-planetary disk out of which the planets, moons, asteroids, and other small Solar System bodies formed.

The overhang beam is subjected to the uniform distributed load having an intensity of w = 50 kn/m. determine the maximum shear s
alex41 [277]
Given:

Uniform distributed load with an intensity of W = 50 kN / m on an overhang beam.

We need to determine the maximum shear stress developed in the beam:

τ = F/A

Assuming the area of the beam is 100 m^2 with a length of 10 m.

τ = F/A
τ = W/l
τ = 50kN/m / 10 m
τ = 5kN/m^2
τ = 5000 N/ m^2<span />

Why is a shadow formed
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. The size and shape of a shadow depend on the position and size of the light source compared to the object.
