Answer:

<em>a person who sees laser light passing through a bucket full of water.</em>

Explanation:

According to relativity, the speed of light is the same irrespective of the relative speed between the source, and the observer. The only exception is when light travel from a less dense medium to a denser medium as in air into the bucket full of water. So the speed of light is slowest relative to the observer in the laser that passes through the bucket of water.

A 912-kg car is being driven down a straight, level road at a constant speed of 31.5 m/s. When the driver sees a police cruiser
sergejj [24]

Answer:

786.6 N

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 912 kg

initial velocity of car, u = 31.5 m/s

final velocity of car, v = 24.6 m/ s

time, t = 8 s

Let a be the acceleration of the car

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

24.6 = 31.5 + a x 8

a = - 0.8625 m/s^2

Force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 912 x 0.8625

F = 786.6 N

Thus, the force on the car is 786.6 N.

A cheetah can accelerate from rest at the rate of 4m /s
lesya [120]
Acceleration of cheetah (a) = 4m/s²
time = 10s
initial velocity(u) = 0
final velocity = v
distance travelled = s

v = u +at = 0 + 10×4 = 40m/s
s = (v²-u²)/2a = 40²/(2×4) = 1600/8 = 200m

Which of the following statements accurately describes the properties of gases?
Ray Of Light [21]
<span>A change in the pressure of a gas results in a more significant change in volume than it would in a liquid.  is the statement that accurately describes the property of gas. Gas only depends on how you store it. the bigger the space the wider gas can expand, the smaller the space, the more compress the gas can become.</span>

An oil slick on water is 120 nm thick and illuminated by white light incident perpendicular to its surface. What color does the
gregori [183]

Answer:

\lambda = 672 nm

so this is nearly red colour light

Explanation:

As we know that the interference of light from reflected light then the path difference is given as

\Delta x = 2\mu t + \frac{\lambda}{2}

now we know that for constructive interference of light the path difference is given as

\Delta x = n\lambda

so we will have

2\mu t + \frac{\lambda}{2} = N\lambda

so we will have

4\mu t = \lambda

\lambda = 2(1.40)(120nm)

\lambda = 672 nm

so this is nearly red colour light
