Explanation:

A tall tree may have more resistance to the wind since it has more mass ( branches, leaves). That means the wind has more mass to push against. Winds may also be stronger at a higher level. Tall trees have been growing longer and have more chances to have been compromised by insects, animals, fungi and so on. They also have less flexibility since they need to be more rigid to hold up the mass of branches they have.

A tank whose bottom is a mirror is filled with water to a depth of 20.0 cm. A small fish floats motionless 7.0 cm under the surf

liberstina [14]

Answer:

The apparent depth of (a) the fish is 5.3 cm and (b) the image of the fish is 24.8 cm.

Explanation:

According to the following equation:

$\frac{n_{w} }{s} +\frac{n_{a} }{s'} = \frac{n_{a}- n_{w}}{R_{c} } \\$

where nw and na is the refractive indices of water (1.33) and air (1.00) respectively; s is the depth of the fish below the surface of the water; s' is the apparent depth of the fish from normal incidence and Rc is the radius of curvature of the mirror at the bottom of the tank.

Note that the bottom of the tank is assumed to be a flat mirror, therefore the radius of curvature is very large (R⇒∞).

Therefore, the above equation can be expressed as:

$\frac{n_{w}}{s} +\frac{n_{a}}{s'}=0$
