A tank whose bottom is a mirror is filled with water to a depth of 19.6 cm. A small fish floats motionless a distance of 6.40 cm

ANEK [815]

Answer:

A. 4.82 cm

B. 24.66 cm

Explanation:

The depth of water = 19.6 cm

Distance of fish = 6.40 cm

Index of refraction of water = 1.33

(A). Now use the below formula to compute the apparent depth.

$d_{app} = \frac{n_{air}}{n_{water}} \times d_{real} \\= \frac{1}{1.33} \times 6.40 \\= 4.82 cm.$

(B). the depth of the fish in the mirror.

$d_{real} = 19.6 cm + (19.6 cm – 6.40 cm) = 32.8 cm$

Now find the depth of reflection of the fish in the bottom of the tank.

$d_{app} = \frac{n_{air}}{n_{water}} \times d_{real} \\d_{app} = \frac{1}{1.33} \times 32.8 = 24.66\\$

Is this identified as distance,displacement, speed,velocity,acceleration,mass,volume, or time

Norma-Jean [14]

That's a velocity.

It has a speed and the direction of the speed.

Chanice drives her scooter 7 kilometers north. she stops for lunch and then drives 5 kilometers and then 1 km east again. what d

lord [1]

Distance covered is given as follows

1). 7 km North

2). 5 km North

3). 1 km East

Now total distance covered will be given as

$d = d_1 + d_2 + d_3$

$d = 7 km + 5 km + 1 km$

$d = 13 km$

Now in order to find the displacement we will show all with their directions

$\vec d_1 = 7 + 5 = 12 km$ towards North

$\vec d_2 = 1 km$ towards East

So total displacement is

$\vec d = \vec d_1 + \vec d_2$

$\vec d = 12 \hat j + 1 \hat i$

so net displacement will be

$d = \sqrt{12^2 + 1^2} = 12.04 km$

so displacement is 12.04 km

Two planets have the same surface gravity, but planet b has twice the radius of planet

nevsk [136]

The formula for the acceleration due to gravity is:

a = Gm/r²
where
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.6726 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²
m is the mass of planet
r is the radius of planet

So, if they have the same a:

m₁/r₁² = m₂/r₂²
So, if m₁ = m and r₂ = 2r₁,
m/r₁² = m₂/(2r₁)²
m₂ = 4m

<em>Thus, the answer is D.</em>
