A flash of red light and a flash of blue light enter a glass cube perpendicular to its surface at the same time. after passing through the block, the red light pulse exits first.

For any medium, other than vacuum, the index of refraction for red light is slightly lower (closer to 1 ) than that for blue light. This means that when light goes from vacuum (or air) into glass, the red light deviates from its original direction less than does the blue light. Also, as the light reemerges from the glass into vacuum (or air), the red light again deviates less than the blue light. If the two surfaces of the glass are parallel to each other, the red and blue rays will emerge traveling parallel to each other, but displaced laterally from one another.

what is refractive index?

The ratio between the speed of light in medium to speed in a vacuum is the refractive index. When light travels in a medium other than the vacuum, the atoms of that medium continually absorb and re-emit the particles of light, slowing down the speed light.

If two variables have a non-related relationship and one of the variables is changed, how will the other variable change?
PolarNik [594]

If one of the variables is changed, that tells nothing about what happens to the other one, or IF anything happens, or when, or how long it lasts. Because they are UN-RELATED. You just said so yourself.

None of the choices says this.

On a horizontal surface is located
Ierofanga [76]

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on the object is 0, so that

<em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

where <em>n</em> = magnitude of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the object, and <em>w</em> = weight of the object. Hence <em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em> = 196 N, where <em>m</em> = 20 kg and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².

The force of static friction exerts up to 80 N on the object, since that's the minimum required force needed to get it moving, which means the coefficient of <u>static</u> friction <em>µ</em> is such that

80 N = <em>µ</em> (196 N)   →   <em>µ</em> = (80 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.408

Moving at constant speed, there is a kinetic friction force of 40 N opposing the object's motion, so that the coefficient of <u>kinetic</u> friction <em>ν</em> is

40 N = <em>ν</em> (196 N)   →   <em>ν</em> = (40 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.204

And so the closest answer is C.

(Note: <em>µ</em> and <em>ν</em> are the Greek letters mu and nu)

Two cars cover the same distance in a straight line. Car a covers the distance at a constant velocity. Car b starts from rest an
Artyom0805 [142]

a) For the motion of car with uniform velocity we have , s = ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2, where s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, t is the time taken a is the acceleration.

In this case s = 520 m, t = 223 seconds, a =0 m/s^2

Substituting

       520 = u*223\\ \\u = 2.33 m/s

 The constant velocity of car a = 2.33 m/s

b) We have s = ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2

s = 520 m, t = 223 seconds, u =0 m/s

Substituting

      520 = 0*223+\frac{1}{2} *a*223^2\\ \\ a = 0.0209 m/s^2

Now we have v = u+at, where v is the final velocity

Substituting

        v = 0+0.0209*223 = 4.66 m/s

So final velocity of car b = 4.66 m/s

c) Acceleration = 0.0209 m/s^2

When the temperature of the air is 50°C, the velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air is approximately?
noname [10]

The answer is:

C. 361 m/s

The explanation:

To calculate  the speed of sound at a given temperature (50°C) we are going to use this formula:

v = 331 + 0.6T

when V is the velocity

and T is the temperature = 50°C

by substitution:

v = 331 + 0.6(50)

v = 361 m/s

So, The correct answer is C.

because of the variation of the motion of the molecules of air with change of temperature so, the velocity (V) of the  sound in the air is change with temperature.
