If a fish is trying to capture an insect hovering above the surface of the water – how will it jump to catch it? Will it aim abo

ve or below what it sees? Explain what this question is saying.

Answer:

It will have aim at a point "below" the insect.

From the insect's point of view, the fish will appear to be shallower than it actually is because a ray of light from the insect to the fish will be bent "towards" the normal when the ray enters the water

A young woman with normal distant vision has a 10.0% ability to accommodate (that is, increase) the lens strength (a.k.a, lens p
Kipish [7]

Answer:

20.0 cm

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

The normal power for distant vision is 50.0 D. A young woman with normal distant vision has a 10.0% ability to accommodate (that is, increase) the power of her eyes. What is the closest object she can see clearly?

Solution

Now, the power of a lens, P = 1/f = 1/u + 1/v where f = focal length of lens, u = object distance from eye lens and v = image distance from eye lens.

Given that we require a 10 % increase in the power of the lens to accommodate the image she sees clearly, the new power P' = 50.0 D + 10/100 × 50 = 50.0 D + 5 D = 55.0 D.

Also, since the object is seen clearly, the distance from the eye lens to the retina equals the distance between the image and the eye lens. So, v = 2.00 cm = 0.02 m

Now, P' = 1/u + 1/v

1/u = P'- 1/v

1/u = 55.0 D - 1/0.02 m

1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 1/0.02 m

1/u = 55.0 m⁻¹ - 50.0 m⁻¹

1/u = 5.0 m⁻¹

u = 1/5.0 m⁻¹

u = 0.2 m

u = 20 cm

So, at 55.0 dioptres, the closet object she can see is 20 cm from her eye.

When a cube is inscribed in a sphere of radius r, the length Lof a side of the cube is . If a positive point charge Qis placed a
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

  Ф_cube /Ф_sphere = 3 /π

Explanation:

The electrical flow is

      Ф = E A

where E is the electric field and A is the surface area

Let's shut down the electric field with Gauss's law

       Фi = ∫ E .dA = q_{int} / ε₀

the Gaussian surface is a sphere so its area is

        A = 4 π r²

the charge inside is

        q_{int} = Q

we substitute

       E 4π r² = Q /ε₀

       E = 1 / 4πε₀   Q / r²

To calculate the flow on the two surfaces

* Sphere

       Ф = E A

        Ф = 1 / 4πε₀  Q / r² (4π r²)

        Ф_sphere = Q /ε₀

* Cube

Let's find the side value of the cube inscribed inside the sphere.

In this case the radius of the sphere is half the diagonal of the cube

          r = d / 2

We look for the diagonal with the Pythagorean theorem

         d² = L² + L² = 2 L²

         d = √2 L

         

we substitute

          r = √2 / 2 L

          r = L / √2

          L = √2  r

now we can calculate the area of ​​the cube that has 6 faces

          A = 6 L²

          A = 6 (√2  r)²

          A = 12 r²

the flow is

          Ф = E A

          Ф = 1 / 4πε₀  Q/r²  (12r²)

          Ф_cubo = 3 /πε₀  Q

the relationship of these two flows is

         Ф_cube /Ф_sphere = 3 /π

A driver in a 2000 kg Porsche wishes to pass to pass a slow-moving school bus on a four-lane road. What is the average power in
Kryger [21]

The average power is 3.0\cdot 10^6 W

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the work done to accelerate the car; according to the work-energy theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the car:

W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2

where :

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the final kinetic energy of the car, with

m = 2000 kg is the mass of the car

v = 60 m/s is the final speed of the car

K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2 is the initial kinetic energy of the car, with

u = 30 m/s is initial speed of the car

Soolving:

W=\frac{1}{2}(2000)(60)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2000)(30)^2=2.7\cdot 10^6 J

Now we can find the power required for the acceleration, which is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

t = 9 s is the time elapsed

Solving:

P=\frac{2.7\cdot 10^6}{9}=3.0\cdot 10^6 W

The magnetic force on a straight wire 0.69 m long is 1.5 x 10-3 N. The current in the wire is 16.9 A. What is the magnitude of t
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Magnitude of magnetic field is 1.29 x 10⁻⁴ T

Explanation:

Given :

Current flowing through the wire, I = 16.9 A

Length of wire. L = 0.69 m

Magnetic force experienced by the wire, F = 1.5 x 10⁻³ N

Consider B be the applied magnetic field.

The relation to determine the magnetic force experienced by current carrying wire is:

F = ILBsinθ

Here θ is the angle between magnetic field and current carrying wire.

According to the problem, the magnetic field and current carrying wire are perpendicular to each other, that means θ = 90⁰. So, the above equation becomes:

F = ILB

B=\frac{F}{IL}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

B=\frac{1.5\times10^{-3} }{16.9\times0.69}

B = 1.29 x 10⁻⁴ T
