A slab of glass 8.0 cm thick is placed upon a printed page. If the refractive index of the glass is 1.5, how far from the surface would the letters appear to be when viewed from directly above?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5.3 cm

Explanation:

This question is an illustration of real and apparent distance.

From the question, we have the following given parameters

Real Distance, R = 8.0cm

Refractive Index, μ = 1.5

Required

Determine the apparent distance (A)

The relationship between R, A and μ is:

μ = R/A

i.e.

Refractive Index = Real Distance ÷ Apparent Distance

Substitute values in the above formula

1.5 = 8/A

Multiply both sides by A

1.5 * A = A * 8/A

1.5A = 8

Divide both side by 1.5

1.5A/1.5 = 8/1.5

A = 8/1.5

A = 5.3cm

Hence, the letters would appear at a distance of 5.3cm

Why is the Earth generally warmer at the equator than at the poles?

Answers

Because of the earths curve and temperature. The temperature in an area depends on the amount of the Sun's energy reaching the surface in that area. The equator tilts closer to the sun than the poles do. I hope this helps!

Answer: The Sun's energy is more concentrated on the equator than the poles. This is because the Sun's energy (in the form of warmth) is more direct at the equator, and less direct at the poles.

Explanation: You can see this with a flashlight. When you point the flashlight directly toward a tale, the light is very concentrated and right. However, when you point the flashlight toward the table at an angle, the light becomes more spread out and less concentrated.  This is why even though sometimes the North Poles and South Poles have 24 hours of sunlight, it never actually reaches a high temperature and instead, keeps it's cold temperature.

A machine that operates a ride at the fair requires 2500 J to lift a 294 N child 5.0 m. What is the efficiency of this machine?

Answers

Answer:

η = 58.8%

Explanation:

Work is defined as the force applied by the distance traveled by the body.

[tex]W =F*d[/tex]

where:

W = work [J] (units of joules)

F = force = 294 [N]

d = distance = 5 [m]

[tex]W = 294*5\\W = 1470 [J]\\[/tex]

Efficiency is defined as the energy required to perform an activity in relation to the energy actually added to perform some activity. This can be better understood by means of the following equation.

[tex]efficiency = W_{done}/W_{required}\\efficiency = 1470/2500\\efficiency = 0.588 = 58.8%[/tex]

In a lacrosse game a ball is thrown with a force of 2000 N. The throwing force acted for 0.8
seconds. If the ball had a change in velocity, Av, of 50 m/s, what is the mass of the ball?

Answers

Answer:

Mass, m = 32 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 2000 N

The change in velocity, (v-u) = 50 m/s

Time, t = 0.8 s

We need to find the mass of the ball. The net force acting on an object is given by :

F = ma

Where a is acceleration

[tex]F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\m=\dfrac{Ft}{(v-u)}\\\\m=\dfrac{2000\times 0.8}{50}\\\\m=32\ kg[/tex]

So, the mass of the ball is 32 kg.

C. Draw and LABEL the resultant and equilibrant

D.Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant and equilibrant


(scale: 1cm = 1N)

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude and direction of the resultant is 8.66 N and [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] south of East.

The magnitude and direction the equilibrant is 8.66 N and [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] North of West respectively.

Explanation:

Let

[tex]P=5\ \text{N}\ \text{south}[/tex]

[tex]Q=5\ \text{N}\ 30^{\circ}\ \text{south of east}[/tex]

[tex]\theta[/tex] = Angle between P and Q = [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex]

Magnitude of resultant

[tex]R=\sqrt{P^2+Q^2+2PQ\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{5^2+5^2+2\times 5\times 5\cos60^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow R=8.66\ \text{N}[/tex]

Direction is given by

[tex]\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{Q\sin\theta}{P+Q\sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{5\sin60^{\circ}}{5+5\sin60^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=30^{\circ}[/tex]

The magnitude and direction of the resultant is 8.66 N and [tex]30^{\circ}+30^{\circ}=60^{\circ}[/tex] south of East.

The magnitude and direction the equilibrant is 8.66 N and [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] North of West.

In a drag race, a car takes off from rest and covers 375 meters in 5 seconds. What is the
final velocity?

Answers

s = ut + 1/2 a t^2

375 = 0 * 5 + 1/2 * a * (5)^2

375 = 1/2 * a * 25

a = 375*2/25

a = 15* 2

a = 30m/sec^2

v = u + at

v = 0 + 30 * 5

v = 150 m/sec

If a rock is dropped from the top of a tower at the front of it and takes 3.6 seconds to hit the ground. Calculate the final velocity of the penny in m/s. What is the height of the tower?

Answers

Answer:

35.28m/s; 63.50m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Time, t = 3.6 secs

Since it's a free fall, acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Initial velocity, u = 0

To find the final velocity, we would use the first equation of motion;

[tex] V = u + at[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] V = 0 + 9.8 * 3.6[/tex]

V = 35.28m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the penny is 35.28m/s.

To find the height, we would use the second equation of motion;

[tex] S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}[/tex]

Substituting the values into the equation;

[tex] S = 0(3.6) + \frac {1}{2}*9.8*(3.6)^{2}[/tex]

[tex] S = 0 + 4.9*12.86[/tex]

[tex] S = 0.5 *36[/tex]

S = 63.50m

Therefore, the height of the tower is 63.50m.

La motocicleta que tiene el récord mundial de aceleración es una motocicleta eléctrica, llamada "Killacycle" la cual permite pasar de 0 Km/h a 100 km/h en tan solo 1.5 s ¿Cuál es la aceleración media de esta motocicleta?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a=18.51\ m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 0 km/h

Final speed, v = 100 km/h = 27.77 m/s

Time, t = 1.5 s

We need to find the average acceleration of this motorcycle. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity and it is given by :

[tex]a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{v}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{27.77\ m}{1.5\ s}\\\\a=18.51\ m/s^2[/tex]

So, the acceleration of the motorcycle is [tex]18.51\ m/s^2[/tex].

In a perfectly insulated container of negligible mass, 4.00 × 10−2 kg of steam at 100◦C and atmospheric pressure is added to 0.200 kg of water at 50.0◦C.
A) If no heat is lost to the surroundings, what is the final temperature of the system? B) At the final temperature, how many kilograms are there of steam and how many of liquid water?

Answers

[tex]m_s= 4.00 \times 10^{-2} \ kg \\\\L_v=2256 \times 10^{3} \ \frac{J}{kg}\\\\m_w= 0.2 \ kg\\\\\Delta T= 50^{\circ}[/tex]

In point A:

[tex]Q_{Steam}=m_s \ L_v[/tex]

            [tex]=0.04 \times 2256 \times 10^{3}\\\\=9.02 \times 10^4 \ J[/tex]

The photo shows two yeast cells. Each cell is an individual organism. Which sentence best describes what happened to each cell during cell growth?


A. It will become many different cells.

B. It will produce offspring with a mate.

C. It will divide in half to form two new cells.

D. It will become larger by taking in nutrients.

Answers

The answer is option c - It will divide in half to form two new cells..

Explanation:

The sentence that best describes what happened during cell growth is ;

( D ) It will become larger by taking in nutrients

As the yeast cells begin to grow ( i.e. cell growth ), they will require more nutrients and as they take in the necessary nutrients they will gradually increase in size ( becoming larger ) which is a vital sign of cell growth and development, which will be seen in the yeast cells as they undergo cell growth.

The production of offsprings with a mate does not describe an activity that occurs in cell growth.  

Hence we can conclude that The sentence that best describes what happened during cell growth is, It will become larger by taking in nutrients.
