The two flaws in
her experiment’s design are
<span>- She introduced at least one confounding variable.</span>
<span>- She tried to test multiple hypotheses at a time</span>
In the above mentioned experiment she had to have four samples to prove
four hypotheses, each one separately and not to mix two hypotheses in an alone
sample, that what it brings as consequence is the confusion.
To
solve this problem, we assume that the wavelength of the light in air is 500
nanometers.
For this case we
only need the refractive index of the polystyrene. For an antireflective
coating, we need a quarter of wave thickness at the wavelength in the air. Which
means that the antireflective coating needs to be as thick as 1/4 of the
wavelength, divided by the coating’s refractive index. This is expressed
mathematically in the form:
x = λ / (4 * n)
where,
x = thickness
λ = wavelength
of light
n = index of
refraction of polystyrene
Substituting:
x = 500 nm / (4
* 1.49)
x = 500 nm / 5.96
x = 83.90 nm
Answer:
Explanation:
height of pole = 15 ft
height of man = 6 ft
Let the length of shadow is y .
According to the diagram
Let at any time the distance of man is x.
The two triangles are similar

15 y - 15 x = 6 y
9 y = 15 x

Differentiate with respect to time.

As given, dx/dt = 4 ft/s

ft/s
The average weight of an athlete should be around 60kg so from the information that the athlete can run 100m in 10s, we can calculate that their average speed is 10m/s. Using the kinetic energy formula, Ek = 1/2mv^2 we can calculate the kinetic energy using 60kg as the mass.
(1/2)(60)(10^2) = Ek
Ek= 3000J
