Luden [163]3 years ago

Answer:

<h2><em>This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line. The amount of bending depends on two things: Change in speed – if a substance causes the light to speed up or slow down more, it will refract (bend) more.</em></h2><h2><em>Hop</em><em>e</em><em> it</em><em> helps</em><em>.</em><em>.</em></h2>

Caleb rides his motorcycle with a constant speed of 72km/h. How far can he Travel in 3 hours 40 minutes
lina2011 [118]
264 km

72 x 3 hr = 216 km
72/60 (min in an hr) =  1.2(km per min) x 40 = 48 km
216 + 48 = 264

0.0010 kg pellet is fired at a speed of 52.2 m/s at a motionless 3.3 kg piece of balsa wood. When the pellet
Paraphin [41]

The formula for momentum is p = m*v

The conservation of momentum suggests:

m*vi = m*vf (initial mass times initial velocity = final mass times final velocity or initial momentum = final momentum)

(0.0010)(52.2) = (0.0010 + 3.3)vf

vf = (0.0010)(52.2)/(0.0010 + 3.3) = 0.0522/3.301 ≈ 0.01581 m/s

To the nearest thousandth  ≈ .016 m/s

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

1. increases

2. increases

3. increases

Explanation:

Part 1:

First of all, since the box remains at rest, the horizontal net force acting on the box must equal zero:

F1 - fs = 0.

And this friction force fs is:

fs = Nμs,

where μs is the static coefficient of friction, and N is the normal force.

Originally, the normal force N is equal to mg, where m is the mass of the box, and g is the constant of gravity. Now, there is an additional force F2 acting downward on the box, which means it increases the normal force, since the normal force by Newton's third law, is the force due to the surface acting on the box upward:

N = mg + F2.

So, F2 is increasing, that means fs is increasing too.

Part 2:

As explained in the part 1, N = mg + F2. F2 is increasing, so the normal force is thus increasing.

Part 3:

In part 1 and part 2, we know that fs = Nμs, and since the normal force N is increasing, the maximum possible static friction force fs, max is also increasing.

calculate the distance a plane flies on a 7.95 hour flight from Chicago to London. Assume a constant speed of 800.0 km/h
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

6360 km

Explanation:

Use the kinematics equation x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2.  We are given t = 7.95 hours and a = 0 m/s^2 (constant speed means there is no acceleration).  Solve for x.

x=(800)(7.95)+\frac{1}{2}(0)(7.95^2)\\x=6360 \ km
