If a fish is trying to capture insect hovering above the surface of water – how will it jump to catch it? Will it aim above or below what it sees? Explain.

Answer:

Alcohol thermometers are used rather than mercury thermometers in very cold regions because alcohol has a lower freezing point than mercury. Pure ethanol freezes at -115 degrees C, while mercury freezes at -38 degrees C.

Explanation:

It is less durable because alcohol evaporates faster than mercury. It cannot measure high temperature because of a low boiling point. It wets the walls of the thermometer, which can adversely impact the accuracy of readings

Answer:

Explanation:

Although we do have an equation for this in terms of one-dimensional motion, it's easy enough just to use the mathematical definition of acceleration:

[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}[/tex]  which says, in words, the acceleration of an object is equal to the objects final velocity minus its initial velocity, divided by the change in time. Since everything is given in m and s, our answer will be in m/s/s:

[tex]a=\frac{16.0-4.0}{4.0}[/tex] and

[tex]a=\frac{12.0}{4.0}[/tex] so

a = 3.0 m/s/s

Answer:

Suppose that the wave equation is:

f(x) = A*cos(k*x)

The wave is in phase for two points x₁ and x₂ if:

f(x₁) = f(x₂)

And if these points are consecutive (for example, two consecutive peaks) then the wavelength of the wave is:

wavelength = x₂ - x₁

In this case, we know that the wave is in phase for two points that are 2 m apart.

Then we can use the points:

x₁ and x₂ such that:

x₂ = x₁ + 2m

We also know that these are the nearest points such that this happens, then we can assume that the points are consecutive.

Then the wavelength will be:

wavelength = x₂ - x₁ = (x₁ + 2m) - (x₁) = 2m

Then the wavelength is 2m.

The correct option is C.

Answer:

A. Constructive

B. Destructive

C. Destructive

D. Constructive

Explanation:

Constructive interference takes place at locations along the path of two superposed waves where the waves are in phase such that a high or low point of one of the waves corresponds with a high or low point of the other wave which gives a resulting wave amplitude which is the sum of the amplitudes of the individual waves

Destructive interference takes place at locations along the path of two superposed waves where one wave is out of phase with the other wave such that a high or low point of one of the waves coincides with a low or high point of the other wave respectively thereby cancelling the effect of the other wave and giving a resulting wave that has an amplitude which is the difference in the amplitudes of the individual waves

Therefore;

At point A, the peak of each wave partially coincides resulting in constructive interference

At point B, the peak of the blue wave and the trough of the red wave partially coincides resulting in destructive interference

At point C, the through of the blue wave and the peak of the back wave partially coincides resulting in destructive interference

At point D, the trough of each wave partially coincides resulting in constructive interference.

Answer:

Answer:

The statement as aurora australis known as northern lights is incorrect. As the designation of aurora australis is for the southern lights i.e. which occur in the southern hemisphere.

Explanation:

Aurora or natural lights is a phenomenon that occurs at the poles of the Earth due to interaction between the Earth's magnetic field and cosmic rays. This interaction results in the beautiful display of colors on both poles. These are named, aurora borealis or aurora australis depending on their geographical location. If they occur on the northern pole they are termed as aurora borealis while those occurring on the southern pole are named aurora australis.

Answer:

C. The aurora australis is known as the northern lights.

Explanation:

Answer:

1) C, 2) C, 3) B, 4) D, 5) A/B, 6) D, 7) D, 8) A, 9) B, 10) A

Explanation:

1) Seconds, minutes and days are time units. (Correct answer: C)

2) The displacement is shortest distance between the point of origin and the point of destination. (Correct answer: C)

3) The velocity is the rate of change of position in time. (Correct answer: B)

4) Graphs are a very useful ressource to infer characteristics inherent to a studied physical variable. (Correct answer: D)

5) There are two possible answers, since both milimeters and meters are units for distance. (Correct answers: A/B)

6) The distance is the arc length of the entire path that object travelled. (Answer: D)

7) Traditionally, in a position vs. time graph we plot time in the x-axis. (Answer: D)

8) In this case, we use a distance-time graph, where travelled distance is the dependent variable and time is the independent variable. (Answer: A)

9) The point of origin is the initial position of the object. (Answer: B)

10) The point of destination is the final position of the object. (Answer: A)
