Playing catch involves the ball moving in one direction in the air when you exert force. When the ball is in air, there is a gravitational force and a little it of backward air resistance until the other person catches it.
4 N/cm^2 is the answer. the way you get this is the formula for pressure is P=F/A. So you would plug in the numbers which would make the equation P=12/3 which you know equals 4. The units for pressure is N/cm^2 or N/m^2
I hope this helps
Answer:
D. Molecules of a gas slow down and change to a liquid state.
Explanation:
- Condensation refers to a process by which a gas changes from gaseous state to liquid state. For example, water vapor changes to from the state of being a gas to liquid state water.
- Condensation is the opposite of evaporation and occurs when gaseous particles slow down and change into liquid state.
- Heat energy is lost during condensation and gaseous molecules lose kinetic energy making them to slow down and thus changing to liquid state,
The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of individual resistances. Voltage applied to a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops. The voltage drop across a resistor in a series circuit is directly proportional to the size of the resistor.
If you know the total current and the voltage across the whole circuit, you can find the total resistance using Ohm's Law: R = V / I. For example, a parallel circuit has a voltage of 9 volts and total current of 3 amps. The total resistance RT = 9 volts / 3 amps = 3 Ω
Current: The total circuit current is equal to the sum of the individual branch currents. Resistance: Individual resistances diminish to equal a smaller total resistance rather than add to make the total.
Answer:
The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction
Explanation:
Refraction occurs when a light wave passes through the boundary between two mediums.
When a ray of light is refracted, it changes speed and direction, according to Snell's Law:
where
:
is the index of refraction of the 1st medium
is the index of refraction of the 2nd medium
is the angle of incidence (the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the boundary)
is the angle of refraction (the angle between the refracted ray and the normal to the boundary)
In this problem, we have a ray of light passing from air into clear plastic. We have:
(index of refraction of air)
approx. (index of refraction in clear plastic)
Snell's Law can be rewritten as
And since , we have
And so
Which means that
The angle of incidence is greater than the angle of refraction
