<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= 22°

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • According to Snell's law, the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant. The constant value is called the refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first.
  • Therefore; Sin i/Sin r = η

In this case; Angle of incidence = 90° -60° =30°, angle of refraction =? and η = 1.33

Thus;

Sin 30 / Sin r = 1.33

Sin r = Sin 30°/1.33

       = 0.3759

r = Sin^-1 0.3759

   = 22.08

   <u>≈ 22°</u>

A diver named Jacques observes a bubble of air rising from the bottom of a lake (where the absolute pressure is 3.50 atm) to the
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

3.73994

No,

Explanation:

P_1 = Pressure at the bottom of the lake = 3.5 atm

P_2 = Pressure at the top of the lake = 1 atm

V_b = Volume at the bottom of the lake

V_s = Volume at the top of the lake

T_1 = Temperature at the bottom of the lake = 4 °C

T_2 = Temperature at the top of the lake = 23 °C

From ideal gas law we have the relation

\dfrac{P_1V_b}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_s}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_b}{V_s}=\frac{P_2T_1}{P_1T_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_b}{V_s}=\frac{1\times 277.15}{3.5\times 296.15}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_s}{V_b}=0.26738^{-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_s}{V_b}=3.73994

The ratio is 3.73994

As Jacques is ascending if he holds his breath his lungs acting like a bubble would expand. Hence, it is not safe to hold his breath while ascending,

the distance between the sun and earth is about 1.5X10^11 m. express this distance with an SI prefix and kilometers
Angelina_Jolie [31]
First, we write the SI prefixed. The SI unit for distance is meters.

Kilo = 10³
Mega = 10⁶
Giga = 10⁹
Terra = 10¹²

Because our value has ten to the power of 11, we will use the closest and lowest power prefix, which is giga. 

1.5 x 10¹¹ /  10⁹
= 1.5 x 10² Gm or 150 Gm

Writing in kilometers, we simply repeat the procedure except we divide by 10³ this time.

1.5 x 10¹¹ / 10³
= 1.5 x 10⁸ km

An object is moving in the plane according to these parametric equations:
aniked [119]
A. The horizontal velocity is 
vx = dx/dt = π - 4πsin (4πt + π/2)
vx = π - 4π sin (0 + π/2)
vx = π - 4π (1)
vx = -3π

b. vy = 4π cos (4πt + π/2)
vy = 0

c. m = sin(4πt + π/2) / [<span>πt + cos(4πt + π/2)]

d. m = </span>sin(4π/6 + π/2) / [π/6 + cos(4π/6 + π/2)]

e. t = -1.0

f. t = -0.35

g. Solve for t 
vx = π - 4πsin (4πt + π/2) = 0
Then substitute back to solve for vxmax

h. Solve for t
vy = 4π cos (4πt + π/2) = 0
The substitute back to solve for vymax

i. s(t) = [<span>x(t)^2 + y</span>(t)^2]^(1/2)

h. s'(t) = d [x(t)^2 + y(t)^2]^(1/2) / dt

k and l. Solve for the values of t
d [x(t)^2 + y(t)^2]^(1/2) / dt = 0
And substitute to determine the maximum and minimum speeds.

Why does the closed top of a convertible bulge when the car is riding along a highway? Why does the closed top of a convertible
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Option D

The air pressure inside the car is greater than the pressure outside.

Explanation:

When considering airflow over and around a surface, from Bernoulli's equation, air flow regions with higher velocity have a lower pressure, and regions with lower velocity have a higher pressure.

The air outside the convertible is moving faster than the air inside the convertible. This leads to a higher pressure zone just below the surface of the roof (inside the car) causing the roof of the convertible to bulge upwards
