Answer:

A. The photographer will get to the jeep before the rhinocerous

Explanation:

Δv =  Δd/Δt

we can rearrange for time

Δt = Δd/Δv

For the photographer:

Distance is 10m and moves at 6m/s

Δt = 10m/6m/s

Δt = 1.67s

For the rhinocerous

Distance is 16m and moves at 8m/s

Δt = 16m/8m/s

Δt = 2.00s

The distances were to get to the jeep, the photographer makes it to the jeep in a shorter amount of time than the rhino

Answer:

Option B

10.36 m/s

Explanation:

Using the first given equation, then velocity=distance/time

Since distance is provided as 200 m and time, t is 19.3 seconds then substituting these figures yields

v=200/19.3=10.3626943

Rounding off to 2 decimal places, then

v=10.36 m/s

At the very end of Wagner's series of operas The Ring of Nibelung, Brunnhilde takes the golden ring form the finger of the dead
Blababa [14]

Answer:

a) 404 m² b) apparent height = 7.5 m

Explanation:

This question is about refraction and total internal refraction.

Here I will take refractive index of air and water

n_{air}=1\\ n_{water}=1.33=4/3

Now let's look at the diagram I have attached here

At some angle A, the light from the ring (yellow point) under water will be totally internally refracted (B = 90°), which means that rays of light (yellow arrow) that make large enough angle A will not be able to escape from the water. Since we assumed that the ring is a point, there will be a critical cone of angle A with the ring at its apex which traces a circle of radius R on the surface of water, which, beyond this radius, no light could escape.

According to snell's law

\frac{sin(B)}{sin(A)} = \frac{n_{water}}{n_{air}} = 4/3

At critical angle B = 90°

\frac{3)}{4}sin(B) = [tex]\frac{3}{4} sin(90^\circ ) = 0.75 = sin(A)

Therefore

A = 48.6^\circ

With this, we can find the radius of the circle (refer to my diagram)

h* tan (A) = R\\R =11.3 m

And with that we can find the area

A = \pi R^2=404\ m^2

Additional Problem

For apparent depth from above, we can think that, since we are accustomed to seeing light at the speed of c in air, our brain interpret light from <em>any</em> source to be traveling at c. This causes light that originated under water, which has the speed of

v_{water} = \frac{c}{n_{water}} = 0.75c

to appear as if it has traveled with the same duration as light with speed c

In order for this to happen our brain perceive shortened length  which is the apparent depth.

To put it in mathematical term

t_{travel}=\frac{h_{apparent}}{v_{water}} =\frac{h}{c}

So we get apparent depth

h_{apparent}=0.75h = 7.5\ m

A 60 kg student is standing atop a spring in an elevator that is accelerating upward at 3.0 m/s2. The spring constant is 2.5 x 1
dimaraw [331]

the spring will be compressed by 0.3072 m

Explanation:

acceleration of elevator=3 m/s²

mass of student= 60 Kg

spring constant=2.5 x 10³ N/m

the force on the student is given by F = m ( g +a)

F=60 (9.8+3)

F=768 N

now the formula for spring force is given by

F= k x

768= 2.5 x 10³ (x)

x=0.3072 m
