Objects appear different in size and shape in a container of water due to

Physics

Answer:

A. refraction of light waves

Explanation:

Refraction happens when light travels from one medium to another and changes speed and bends. This also causes objects to look different sizes and shapes when they are submerged in water.

A batter hits a pop fly, and the baseball (with a mass of 148 g) reaches an altitude of 265 ft. If we assume that the ball was 3
den301095 [7]

Answer:

The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

Potential Energy (U) is the energy of a body located at a certain height (h) above the ground and is calculated as follows:

U = m × g × h

U: Potential Energy in Joules (J)

m: mass in kg

g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

h: height in m

Equivalences

1 kg = 1000 g

1 ft = 0.3048 m

1 N = 1 (kg×m)/s²

1 J = N × m

Known data

h_2 = 265ft * \frac{0.3048m}{ft} = 80.77m

h_1 = 3ft * \frac{0.3048m}{ft} = 0.914m

m = 148g*\frac{1kg}{1000g} = 0.148kg

g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}

Problem development

ΔU: Potential energy change

ΔU = U₂ - U₁

U₂ - U₁ = mₓgₓh₂ - mₓgₓh₁

U₂ - U₁ = mₓg(h₂ - h₁)

U_2 - U_1 = 0.148kg * 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}*(80.77m - 0.914m) = 115.82 N * m = 115.82J

The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J

Two point charges exert a 5.00 N force on each other. What will the force become if the distance between them is increased by a
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

force becomes one - ninth

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law in electrostatics, two charges can exert a force of attraction or repulsion on each other which is directly proportional to the product of two charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

Here both the charges remains same but the distance is variable.

So, we can say that

F \alpha \frac{1}{d^{2}}    .... (1)

Where d be the distance between the tow charges

As the distance between two charges increases by factor of three, let the new force be F'.

F' \alpha \frac{1}{9d^{2}}   .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1), we get

\frac{F'}{F}=\frac{d^{2}}{9d^{2}}

F'=\frac{F}{9}

Thus, the force becomes one - ninth times the initial force.
