If a spear is thrown at a fish swimming in a lake, it will often miss the fish completely. Why does this happen?

Answer:

C. Refraction of light between the air and water causes the fish to appear in a different location

Explanation:

When you something in the water you see that the objects appear shallower or the real position and the apparent position differ. This happens due to refraction of light. Refraction is a phenomenon of light where it bends when it moves from one medium to another.

In this scenario when the observer looks at the fish, the position of the fish seen to the observer will be different than its actual position because of which the spear will miss the fish most often.

Calculate the flux of the vector field F⃗ =−6i⃗ +5x2j⃗ −5k⃗ , through the square of side 8 in the plane y=1, centered on the y-a
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The flux is 682.6 Wb.

Explanation:

Given that,

Vector field F=-6i+5x^2j-5k

We need to calculate the flux

Using formula of flux

\phi=\int_{-4}^{4}\int_{-4}^{4}(F\cdot j\ dxdz)

Put the value into the formula

\phi=\int_{-4}^{4}\int_{-4}^{4}(-6i+5x^2j-5k)1\ dxdz

\phi=\int_{-4}^{4}\int_{-4}^{4}(5x^2)dxdz

\phi=2(\dfrac{x^3}{3})_{-4}^{4}\times(z)_{-4}^{4}

\phi=682.6\ Wb

Hence, The flux is 682.6 Wb.

A car hits another and the two bumpers lock together during the collision. is this an elastic or inelastic collision?
valkas [14]
Inelastic.
If it was elastic, they'd bump right off each other. But since they've been locked, or stuck together, this is inelastic.

How many turns should a 10-cm long ideal solenoid have if it is to generate a 1.5-mT magnetic field when 1.0 A of current runs t
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

N=119.34 turns

Explanation:

The magnetic field of a solenoid is calculated using the formula:

B= µo*\frac{I*N}{L} Equation 1

Where:

B: magnetic field in Teslas (T)

µo: free space permeability in T*m/A

I= Intensity of the current flowing through the conductor in ampere (A)

N= number of turns

L= solenoid length in meters (m)

Data of the problem:

L=10cm=10*10^{-2}, B= 1.5mT=1.5*10^{-3} T  ,I=1A  

µo=4\pi *10^{-7} \frac{T*m}{A}

We cleared N of the equation (1):

N=B*L/ µo*I

N= (1.5*10^{-3} *10*10^{-2} )/(4\pi *10^{-7} *1

N=0.1193*10^{3}

Answer

N=119.34 turns

Which of the following statements is false?

A & B

Observe the path of the light ray as it passes through the lenses as shown in the attached images. Concave lenses diverge light rays while the convex lens converges the light rays.

Explanation:

Real images are formed where the rays converge, a property of images by convex lenses. Convex lenses can be used to magnify objects. If the image occurs before the focal point of the lens then the image will be upright but smaller. The images inverts and gets bigger past the focal point.

Virtual images are property of concave lenses. These images appear closer but smaller than the real object.
