Depth of a pond seems shallower than real depth,why?​

Physics

Answer:

The refraction of light at the surface of water makes ponds and swimming pools appear shallower than they really are. A 1m deep pond would only appear to be 0.75 m deep when viewed from directly above. When light emerges from glass or water into air it speeds up again.

Answer:

The property of light is the refraction of light because when light travels from a denser medium to rarer medium it bends away from the normal. The apparent depth of water is always less than the real depth of the water. Hence, water appears to be shallower than the real depth.

If a truck is heading south at a velocity of 90m/s for 10 seconds how far did it travel?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Truck will be at a distance of 720 m

Explanation:

Speed of the truck is given as 90 m/sec

Time for which truck travel t = 10 seconds

We have to find the distance that how much truck travel in 8 sec with speed of 90 m/sec

We know that distance is given by distance=velocity\times time

So distance traveled by truck in 8 sec will be equal to =90\times 8 =720m

So truck will be at a distance of 720 m

The force diagram represents a girl pulling a sled with a mass of 6.0 kg to the left with a force of 10.0 N at a 30.0 degree ang
Vilka [71]
Normal Force = 54 N
acceleration = 1.2 m/s^2

For Normal Force:
According to the force diagram, we can come up with the equation (all up and down forces):

10 sin 30 + Normal Force - 58.8 = 0
Normal Force = 53.8 N = 54 N

For acceleration:
According to the force diagram, we can come up with the equation (all left and right forces):

10 cos 30 - 1.5 = (6.0) (Acceleration)
Acceleration = 1.19 m/s^2 = 1.2 m/s^2

How far will a you travel if you run for 10 minutes at 2 m/sec?
ruslelena [56]
You must first convert minutes to seconds so 10*60=600

Then multiply the number of seconds by the speed so 600*2=1200 m

What is the force required to propel an object with mass of 12.0 kg at a rate of 27.0 m/s^2
enyata [817]

Newtons second law --> F = ma

So we have mass which = 12.0

And acceleration = 27.0

So the force = (12)(27)

F = 324 N
