Explanation:

<h3>Atmospheric refraction is the deviation of light or other electromagnetic wave from a straight line as it passes through the atmosphere due to the variation in air density as a function of height.</h3>

A boy on the edge of a vertical cliff 20-m high throws a stone horizontally outwards with a speed of 20 m/s. It strikes the grou
Komok [63]

Answer:

Horizontal distance from the foot of the cliff is 40 m

Explanation:

Given :

Speed of stone v = 20\frac{m}{s}

Vertical distance d = 20 m

Gravitational acceleration g = 10 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

From the kinematics equation,

  d = v_{o} t + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

Where v_{o} = initial velocity ( v_{o} = 0 )

So time take to fall down,

  t = \sqrt{\frac{2d}{a} }

  t = \sqrt{4}

  t = 2 sec

Now find horizontal distance travel by stone,

 x = vt

 x = 20 \times 2

 x = 40 m

Therefore, the horizontal distance travel by stone is 40 m

A small block with mass 0.0350 kgkg slides in a vertical circle of radius 0.550 mm on the inside of a circular track. During one
Lisa [10]

Answer:

 W_net = μ 5.58,   μ = 0.1     W_net = 0.558 J

Explanation:

The work is defined by the related

          W = F. d ​​= F d cos θ

where bold indicates vectors.

In the case, the work of the friction force on a circular surface is requested.

The expression for the friction force is

              fr = μ N

the friction force opposes the movement, therefore the angle is 180º and the cos 180 = -1

               W = - fr d

the path traveled half the length of the circle

               L = 2 π R

               d = L / 2

               d = π R

we substitute

                 W = - μ N d

Total work is initial to

                W_neto = - μ π R (N_b - N_a)

let's calculate

                W_net = - μ π 0.550 (0.670 - 3.90)

                W_net = μ 5.58

for the complete calculation it is necessary to know the friction coefficient, if we assume that μ = 0.1

                W_net = 0.1 5.58

                W_net = 0.558 J
