Chapter 23, Problem 39P
You (height of your eyes above the water. 1.75 m) are standing 2.00 m from the edge of a 2 50-m-deep swimming pool (Figure 23.52). You notice that you can barely see your cell phone, which went missing a few minutes before, on the bottom of the pool. How far from the side of the pool is your cell phone?

What is an example of a scientific hypothesis
Multiverse is called a theory. It has been proposed to account for the apparent and uncanny fine tuning of our own universe. The idea of the multiverse is that there are infinite, distinct universes out there - all with distinct laws of nature and natural constants - and we live in just one of them. Using the accepted definition of the universe being all that there is (matter, space and energy), would you say that multiverse is a scientific theory?

Shastri recalled reading that for an ideal transformer, "the ratio of the primary voltage to the secondary voltage is equal to the ratio of the secondary current to the primary current." Plan and design an experiment to investigate whether the statement above is true. (8) • With the aid of a fully labelled circuit diagram, describe a procedure which can be used to investigate whether the statement is true. The circuit diagram must include the following components: A variable AC voltage supply • AC voltmeters • AC ammeters A transformer with adjustable turns ratio Connecting wires • ° A load resistorarrow_forwardanswer question 1-6arrow_forward
