Explanation:
With most of our blue planet covered by water, it's little wonder that, centuries ago, the oceans were believed to hide mysterious creatures including sea serpents and mermaids. Merfolk (mermaids and mermen) are, of course, the marine version of half-human, half-animal legends that have captured human imagination for ages. One source, the "Arabian Nights," described mermaids as having "moon faces and hair like a woman's but their hands and feet were in their bellies and they had tails like fishes."
C.J.S. Thompson, a former curator at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, notes in his book "The Mystery and Lore of Monsters" that "Traditions concerning creatures half-human and half-fish in form have existed for thousands of years, and the Babylonian deity Era or Oannes, the Fish-god ... is usually depicted as having a bearded head with a crown and a body like a man, but from the waist downwards he has the shape of a fish." Greek mythology contains stories of the god Triton, the merman messenger of the sea, and several modern religions including Hinduism and Candomble (an Afro-Brazilian belief) worship mermaid goddesses to this day.

Example 1. An iron ball of mass 3 kg is
released from a height of 125 m and falls
freely to the ground. Assuming that the
value of g is 10 m/s2, calculate
(i) time taken by the ball to reach the
ground
(ii) velocity of the ball on reaching the
ground
(iii) the height of the ball at half the time it
takes to reach the ground.
According to the equations of motion, the time taken to reach the ground is 5 seconds.
Using;
s = ut + 1/2gt^2
s = distance
u = initial velocity
t = time taken
g = acceleration due to gravity
Note that u = 0 m/s since the object was dropped from a height
Substituting values;
125 = 1/2 × 10 × t^2
125 = 5t^2
t^2 = 125/5
t^2 = 25
t = 5 secs
Velocity on reaching the ground is obtained from
v = u + gt
Where u = 0 m/s
v = gt
v = 10 × 5
v = 50 m/s
At half the time it takes to reach the ground;
s = ut + 1/2gt^2
Where u = 0 m/s
s = 1/2gt^2
s = 1/2 × 10 × (2.5)^2
s = 31.25 m

AM and FM stand for two different processes that are used to code voices and music for transmission. What does AM stand for? 1. Amplitude Modulation 2. Amplitude Mediation A
Answer:
1. Amplitude Modulation
Explanation:
AM is an acronym for Amplitude Modulation and it's refers to a process that is typically used for coding sounds such as voices and music for transmission from one point to another.
On the other hand, FM is an acronym for frequency modulation used for the propagation and transmission of sound waves.
Basically, the two forms of modulation are used for broadcasting in radio transmission.
Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.
Generally, the most commonly used electromagnetic wave technology in telecommunications is radio waves.
Radio waves can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that has its frequency ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz and its wavelength between 1mm and 3000m. Therefore, radio waves are a series of repetitive valleys and peaks that are typically characterized of having the longest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum.

If it is known that a motor battery has an input voltage of 12V and a capacity of 6 Ah, how much power and resistor value is required to turn on 8 lamps with a parallel circuit, with the specifications of each lamp having a maximum voltage of 3V and an electric current of 140 mA? How long did all the lights go on until they off?
Answer:
Part A
The power to turn on the lamp, ∑P = 3.36 W
Part B
The Resistor required is approximately 8.04 Ohms
Part C
The time for all the lights to go out is approximately 21.43 hours
Explanation:
The input voltage of the motor battery , V = 12 V
The capacity of the battery, Q = 6 Ah
The number of lamps in parallel = 8 lamps
The maximum voltage of each lamp, = 3 V
The electric current in each lamp = 140 mA
The energy available in a battery, E = Q × V
For the battery, we have;
E = 6 Ah × 12 V = 72 Wh
The energy available in a battery, E = 72 Wh
Part A
The power used by the lamps, [tex]P_i[/tex] = [tex]I_i[/tex] × [tex]V_i[/tex]
∴ The total power used by the lamp, ∑P = 8 × 0.14 A × 3 V = 3.36 W
The power to turn on the lamp, ∑P = 3.36 W
Part B
The resistance required, is given as follows;
Resistor required = (Battery voltage - Lamp voltage)/(The sum of bulb current)
∴ Resistor required = (12 V - 3 V)/(8 × 0.14 A)
The Resistor required = 8.03571429 Ohms
The Resistor required ≈ 8.04 Ohms
Part C
The time for all the lights to go out = The time for the lamps to use all the power available in the battery
The time for all the lights to go out, t = E/∑P
∴ t = 72 Wh/(3.36 W) = 21.4285714 h
∴ The time for all the lights to go out, t ≈ 21.43 h
The time for all the lights to go out = The time for the lamps to use all the power available in the battery = t ≈ 21.43 h
∴ The time for all the lights to go out ≈ 21.43 hours.

Describe how seismic waves can be used to determine the location of petroleum far beneath the surface.
Answer: The seismic waves are useful for the oil and gas exploration beneath the earth crust.
Explanation:
The seismic waves are sent beneath the earth crust to determine the location of fossil fuels like petrol, and natural gas. These seismic waves bound back and their pattern of reflection and refraction is recorded by using a receiver that is a geophone or can be a hydrophone (in water). The seismic waves bounce back indicating towards the reservoir of fossil fuel exhibit a characteristic pattern that can help in tracing the location of the fossil fuel.

Learning Goal: To understand the forces between a bar magnet and 1. a stationary charge, 2. a moving charge, and 3. a ferromagnetic object. A bar magnet oriented along the y axis can rotate about an axis parallel to the z axis. Its north pole initially points along j^.
Solution :
As the charge is stationary, hence
[tex]$F_m= qvB \sin \theta$[/tex]
[tex]$F_m=0$[/tex]
Hence, no torque at all.
When the charge is moving in positive x direction and the field will be in the negative y direction outside the bar, then :
[tex]$F = q(V \hat i \times B(- \hat j))$[/tex]
[tex]$= -qV B (\hat i \times \hat j)$[/tex]
[tex]$=qVB(- \hat k)$[/tex]
Hence, the force have direction [tex]$(- \hat k)$[/tex].
When instead of charge, an iron nail is used, then there will be induced magnetic field in the soft iron. The nature of the pole induced will be opposite near tot he bar. That is the north pole will be induced near the south pole and vice versa. That is why whichever be the pole of magnet closest to iron will be attracted by iron.

A 1036 nm film with an index of refraction n=2.62 is placed on the surface of glass n=1.52. Light (λ=520.0 nm) falls hits the perpendicular to the surface from air. You want to increase the thickness so the reflected light cancels. What is the minimum thickness of the film that you must add?
Answer:
[tex]55.64\ \text{nm}[/tex]
Explanation:
[tex]\lambda[/tex] = Wavelength falling on film = 520 nm
n = Refractive index of film = 2.62
T = Thickness of film
m = Order
We have the relation
[tex]2T=\dfrac{m\lambda}{n}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{m\lambda}{2n}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{m\times 520}{2\times 2.62}\\\Rightarrow T=99.24m[/tex]
The thickness should be greater than 1036 nm. This means [tex]m=11[/tex]
[tex]T=99.24\times 11=1091.64\ \text{nm}[/tex]
Thickness of the film to be added would be
[tex]\Delta T=1091.64-1036=55.64\ \text{nm}[/tex]
Thickness of the film to be added is [tex]55.64\ \text{nm}[/tex].
Answer:
Explanation:
The ray of light is passing from high refractive index medium to low refractive index medium so condition for cancellation of reflected light is as follows .
2μt = (2n+1) λ/2
where μ is refractive index of the medium , t is thickness , λ is wavelength of light and n is a integer .
Putting n = 10
2x 2.62 x t = 21 x 520 / 2 nm
5.24 t = 5460 nm
t = 1042 nm
Thickness required to be added
= 1042 - 1036 = 6 nm .

Explanation:
When you think of the word "respiration," you might think about the process of breathing, which is actually called ventilation. (The respiratory system consists of the windpipe, lungs, etc.) How is breathing related to cellular respiration?
Answer:
Breathing and cellular respiration are complementary processes that enable the body to produce energy by taken in oxygen which is required for the chemicals contained in food to be broken down there by producing, energy, water and carbon dioxide. The breathing and cellular respiration process also enables the removal of the produced carbon dioxide finally through nose and/or mouth
Explanation:
In cellular respiration, glucose molecules in the presence of oxygen gas are broken down into carbon dioxide and water aerobically in living cells, to release energy and produce ATP as follows;
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
During breathing, oxygen is inhaled into the lungs from the atmosphere and carbon dioxide is exhaled from the longs into the atmosphere, such that the carbon dioxide produced during cellular respiration is transported out of the body through the veins respiratory system, from where is passes out through the nose, while oxygen used in cellular respiration comes from breathing in oxygen into the respiratory system
The oxygen is then transported to the cells through by blood in the blood vessels of the circulatory system to the cells, where the cells use the oxygen for cellular respiration to release energy.
