Great experiment ! Everybody should try it if they can get the equipment.
It demonstrates a lot of things that are very hard to explain in words.
I hope the students remembered to tilt the axis of the globe. If they didn't,
and instead kept it straight up and down, then each city had pretty much
the same amount of bulb-light all the way around, and there were no seasons.
If the axis of the globe was tilted, then City-D had the least variation in
seasons. City-D is only 2° from the equator, so the sun is more direct
there all year around than it is at any of the others.
Answer:
λ = 1360 m
Explanation:
Given data:
frequency of driving nails is given as 1 stroke per second mean at every 0.25 sec she hit the nails
speed of sound is given as 340 m/s
we know that the wave equation is given as
Speed = frequency × wavelength,
v = f × λ
where,
v = speed in meters/second (m/s)
f = frequency in Hertz (Hz)
substituing value to get wavelength of her driving nails


λ = 1360 m
Given:
v = 50.0 m/s, the launch velocity
θ = 36.9°, the launch angle above the horizontal
Assume g = 9.8 m/s² and ignore air resistance.
The vertical component of the launch velocity is
Vy = (50 m/s)*sin(50°) = 30.02 m/s
The time, t, to reach maximum height is given by
(30.02 m/s) - (9.8 m/s²)*(t s) = 0
t = 3.0634 s
The time fo flight is 2*t = 6.1268 s
The horizontal velocity is
u = (50 m/s)cos(36.9°) = 39.9842 m/s
The horizontal distance traveled at time t is given in the table below.

Answer:
The speed of light is faster in water. The Refractive index of water is 1.3 and the refractive index of glass is 1.5. From the equation n = c/v, we know that the refractive index of a medium is inversely proportional to the velocity of light in that medium. Hence, light travels faster in water.
