AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a request for assistance in identifying a female physicist, which initially leads to a debate about the ethics of helping with academic inquiries. Participants express reluctance to provide answers, suggesting it resembles doing homework for someone else. Ultimately, the user identifies the physicist as Deborah Jin, who is noted for her significant contribution to the discovery of the sixth form of matter. The conversation highlights the balance between seeking help and academic integrity. Deborah Jin's achievements underscore the importance of recognizing female contributions in the field of physics.

It is not intellectually honest for us to do your homework for you.

Well it's not really homework, but whatever you say goes.

Thanks anyway.

uh...class credit + us finding answer = us doing your homework. Whether or not its extra credit is beside the point.
 
In short - none of them know.

I'm sorry, but it's true.



:frown:
 
lol!

I did find out who it was though- Deborah Jin. In case you all were wondering... :)

She and some other scientists just found the sixth form of matter.
 
Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
