why is a pencil bent when bent in water

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Refraction

Explanation:

A pencil bends when it enters the water media due to the phenomenon of refraction.

Refraction is one of the properties of waves. Refraction of light occurs which it crosses from a region having different density values. Water is denser than air. As light moves from air to wave it becomes refracted

Steve and Jose drove Jose's car to the beach during Spring Break. The 495 kilometer drive took them 8 hours and 30 minutes. What was their average speed for the trip?

Answers

Answer:

58.24 Km/h.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance (d) = 495 Km

Time (t) = 8 h 30 mins

Speed (S) =?

Next, we shall express 8 hours 30 mins to hours.

We'll begin by convert 30 mins to hour.

60 mins = 1 h

Therefore,

30 mins = 30 mins × 1 h/ 60 mins

30 mins = 0.5 hour.

Thus,

8 h 30 min = 8 + 0.5 = 8.5 hours

Speed is define as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed = Distance /time

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed as shown below:

Distance (d) = 495 Km

Time (t) = 8.5 hour

Speed (S) =?

Speed = Distance /time

Speed = 495 Km / 8.5 hour

Speed = 58.24 Km/h

Thus, the speed is 58.24 Km/h.

Obi Wan Kenobi is force pushing some bad guys into a forcefield. The bad guys (m= 300 kg) were originally at REST 5 meters away from the forcefield. It took them 0.5 seconds to hit the forcefield. How much force does Obi Wan apply?

Answers

Answer:

F = 12000 N = 12 KN

Explanation:

First we need to find the acceleration of the bad boys by using second equation of motion:

s = Vi t + (1/2)at²

where,

s = distance covered = 5 m

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

t = time taken = 0.5 s

a = acceleration = ?

Therefore,

5 m = (0 m/s)(0.5 s) + (1/2)a(0.5 s)²

a = 2(5 m)/(0.5 s)²

a = 40 m/s²

Now, we calculate the force applied by Newton's Second Law:

F = ma

where,

F = force = ?

m = mass of bad guys = 300 kg

Therefore,

F = (300 kg)(40 m/s²)

F = 12000 N = 12 KN

A boat with a horizontal tow rope pulls a waterskier. She skis off to the side, the rope makes an angle of 15° with the forward direction of motion. If the tension in the rope is 180 N, how much work does the rope two on the scare during the forward displacement of 300 m?

Answers

Answer:

13,976.23Joules

Explanation:

Workdone by the rope is expressed using the formula;

W = Fd sin(theta)

F is the tension in the rope = 180

d is the displacement = 300m

theta is the angle of inclination = 15°

Substitute the given parameters into the formula;

W = 180(300)sin15

W = 54000sin 15

W = 13,976.23

Hence the workdone by the rope is 13,976.23Joules

Answers

Responder:

0.6 m

Explicación:

Responder:

0,15 m

Explicación:

Paso uno:

dado

Fuerza F = 250N

diámetro d1- 16 cm am = 0.16 m

A1 = πd1 ^ 2/4 = 3.142 * 0.16 ^ 2/4

= 0.02 m ^ 2

Carga L = 3500N

A2 =?

Segundo paso:

sabemos que la presión aplicada a un extremo para levantar una carga en el otro extremo se expresa matemáticamente como

F1 / A1 = F2 / A

sustituir

250 / 0.2 = 3500 / A

cruzar multiplicar

A2 = 0.02 * 3500/250

A2 = 70.3 / 250

A2 = 0.28

sabemos que área = πd ^ 2/4

0.28 = πd2 ^ 2/4

0.28 = 3.142 * d2 ^ 2/4

0.28 * 4 / 3.142 = d2 ^ 2

0.36 = d ^ 2

d = √0.36

d = 0.6 m

el diámetro debe ser de 0.6 m

Why do the north poles of these two magnets repel each other?

Answers

Answer:

The arrows always start at the magnet's north pole and point towards its south pole. When two like-poles point together, the arrows from the two magnets point in OPPOSITE directions and the field lines cannot join up. So the magnets will push apart (repel).

A skier descends a mountain at an angle of 35.0º to the horizontal. If the mountain is 235 m long, what are the horizontal and vertical components of the skier's displacement?

Answers

Total displacement along the length of mountain is given as
L = 235 m
angle of mountain with horizontal = 35 degree
now we will have horizontal displacement as
x = L cos35
x = 235 cos35 = 192.5 m
similarly for vertical displacement we can say
y = L sin35
y = 235 sin35 = 134.8 m

Given that,

The statue of Liberty is at a height of 46 m.

Jean Grey needs to fly from  rest on the ground to the top of the Statue of Liberty (46 m) in 2.0  seconds.

We need to find her minimum average acceleration during her  ascent. Let it is t. Using the second equation of motion to find it.

[tex]h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\h=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\a=\dfrac{2h}{t^2}\\\\a=\dfrac{2\times 46}{(2)^2}\\\\a=23\ m/s^2[/tex]
