The design plans for the U-shaped skyscraper ‘The Big Bend’ in New York, hailed as the world’s longest building, have been revealed. The 4,000-foot long building will feature an elevator system that can travel in curves, horizontally and in loops.

At any given speed, momentum is directly proportional to mass of an object.

Refractive Index of glass with respect to water can be calculated by 

(Refractive Index of glass with respect to air) × (1/Refractive Index of water with respect to air)

We know that,

Refractive Index of glass with respect to air = 4/3

Refractive index of water with respect to air = 3/2

Hence, Refractive Index of glass with respect to water = (4/3) x (2/3) = 8/9.

Speed has been identified as a key risk factor in road traffic injuries, influencing both the risk of a road crash as well as the severity of the injuries that result from crashes.

Speeding is a factor in 30 % of all fatal accidents.
