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

The value of acceleration due to gravity (g) on Pluto is about . 0.61 meters/second2. How much will an object that weighs 250 ne
Annette [7]
First, determine the mass of the object by dividing its weight on Earth by 9.8 m/s² as shown below,
                                   m = 250 N / 9.8 m/s² = 25.51 kg
Then, multiply the obtained mass by the acceleration due to gravity (g) on Pluto. 
                                  W (in Pluto) = (25.51 kg) x (0.61 m/s²)  = 15.56 N
Therefore, the object will only weigh 15.56 N.

If a plane is flying level at 910 km/h and the banking angle is not to exceed 50 ∘, what's the minimum curvature radius for the
hoa [83]

Answer:

5.5 km

Explanation:

First, we convert the distance from km/h to m/s

910 * 1000/3600

= 252.78 m/s

Now, we use the formula v²/r = gtanθ to get our needed radius

making r the subject of the formula, we have

r = v²/gtanθ, where

r = radius of curvature needed

g = acceleration due to gravity

θ = angle of banking

r = 252.78² / (9.8 * tan 50)

r = 63897.73 / (9.8 * 1.19)

r = 63897.73 / 11.662

r = 5479 m or 5.5 km

Thus, we conclude that the minimum curvature radius needed for the turn is 5.5 km
