If for a given pair of media CR

CR​ < CY​ < CB​

<h3>Which factors affect the critical angle for a given pair of media?</h3>

The factors which affect the critical angle are

(a) The colour (or wavelength) of light

(b) The temperature

(i) Effect of colour of light: The critical angle for a pair of media is less for the violet light and more for the red light. Thus the critical angle increases with the increase in wavelength of light.

(ii) Effect of temperature: The critical angle increases with increase in temperature because on increasing temperature of medium, its refractive index decreases.

According to the question,

μ 1​ sinCR​ =1

μ 2​ sinCY =1

μ 3​ sinCB​ =1

μ 1​ > μ 2​  and μ 2​ > μ 3

⟹μ 1​ > μ 2​ > μ 3

CR​ < CY​ < CB​

Thus,

The critical angle increases with the increase in wavelength of light.

Which statement describes the distribution of charge in an atom? (1) A positively charged nucleus is surrounded by one or more n
pantera1 [17]

Answer: option B

Explanation: when a neutral atom loses an electron or gains a positive charge electron, it becomes a positive ion (positively charged) and when an neutral atom gains an electronic charge or losses a positive charge electron, it becomes a negative ion (negatively charged).

Sound waves, water waves, and light waves are all alike in that they all
Paha777 [63]
Sound and water waves are longitudinal waves, they require a medium to travel through and occilate particles 90 degrees to the wave motion
Light is a transverse wave. It doesnt require a medium to travel through.
All three reflect, refract and diffract


Light is difficult to think of because it acts in ways which waves cannot explain in some cirumstances. It acts like a particle (called photons) in some conditions, but acts like a normal sound or water wave does in others. Try not to get too caught up in light being a wave or a particle because even physists dont know how to explain it yet.

How does the thickness of the lens affects its focal length plz ans this i will mark as brainliest
Oksanka [162]

Hello! :)

The focal length of the lens tells you how far away from the lens a focused image is created, if light rays approaching the lens are parallel. A lens with more “bending power” has a shorter focal length, because it alters the path of the light rays more effectively than a weaker lens. Most of the time, you can treat a lens as being thin and ignore any effects from the thickness, because the thickness of the lens is much less than the focal length. But for thicker lenses, how thick they are does make a difference, and in general, results in a shorter focal length.

Hope I helped and didn’t answer too late!

Good luck and stay COOL!
