Ron fills a beaker with glycerin (n = 1.473) to a depth of 5.0 cm. if he looks straight down through the glycerin surface, he wi

Tju [1.3M]

By law of refraction we know that image position and object positions are related to each other by following relation

$\frac{\mu_1}{h_o} = \frac{\mu_2}{h_i}$

here we know that

$\mu_1 = 1.473$

$h_o = 5 cm$

$\mu_2 = 1$

now by above formula

$\frac{1.473}{5} = \frac{1}{h_i}$

$h_i = 3.39 cm$

so apparent depth of the bottom is seen by the observer as h = 3.39 cm

If a bullet travels at 593.0 m/s, what is its speed in miles per hour?

Ksenya-84 [330]

We have $1 \; mile = 1609.34\; meters$ . So, $1 \; meter = \frac{1}{1609.34} \;mile$ .

$1 \; hour = 3600 \; s$ . So $1 \; s = \frac{1}{3600} \; hour$ .

Thus we can convert the units of the given quantity.

That is,

$593\;m/s=593\;\frac{1/1609.34}{1/3600} \;miles/hour\\
593\;m/s=1,326.51\;miles/hour$ .

The quantity is converted to the required units.

A piece of wood is floating in a bathtub. A second piece of wood sits on top of the first piece, and does not touch the water. I

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

the water level remains same

Explanation:

This can be explained by Archimedes's principle which says that the wood will sink if weight of wood is more than the weight of the water displaced with weight equal to the water displaced otherwise the wood will float.

Therefore, buoyancy or the buoyant force is the same as the weight of wood, the weight of the water displaced by wood is also the same as that of the weight of wood.

Thus, we can see that the weight of the wood remains same and so is the level of water.

Suppose we have two planets with the same mass, but the radius of the second one is twice the size of the first one. How does th

bogdanovich [222]

The free-fall acceleration on the second planet is one-fourth the value of the first planet.

Calculation:

Consider the mass of planet A to be, M

the mass of planet B to be, Mₓ = M

the radius of planet A to be, R₁

the radius of planet B to be, R₂

The acceleration due to gravity on planet A's surface is given as:

g = GM/R₁² - (1)

Similarly, the acceleration due to gravity on planet B's surface is given as:

g' = GM/R₂² [where, R₂ = 2R₁]

= GM/4R₁² -(2)

From equation 1 & 2, we get:

g/g' = GM/R₁² ÷ GM/4R₁²

g/g' = 4/1

Thus we get,

g' = 1/4 g

Therefore, the free-fall acceleration on the second planet is one-fourth the value of the first planet.
