When a beam of light  that is, at first, in air and oriented perpendicular to the surface of a body of water be deflected as a result of transition into water--------It does not deflect , the light direction will not change.

What happens to light when it passes through air?

All materials have what is known as an index of refraction, which is linked to how fast light can travel through the material. As light passes through air and into another clear material (such as glass), it changes speed, and light is both reflected and refracted by the glass.

How does light travel through air and water?

When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.

Explain: What happens to the velocity of a stream as the size of the sediment increases?
artcher [175]

Answer:

Also, as stream depth increases, the hydraulic radius increases thereby making the stream more free flowing. Both of these factors lead to an increase in stream velocity. The increased velocity and the increased cross-sectional area mean that discharge increases.

What tripositive ion has the electron configuration [kr] 4d3 ? what neutral atom has the electron configuration [kr] 5s 2 4d2 ?
tigry1 [53]

(a)

Electronic configuration is given as follows:

[Kr]4d^{3}

Since, this is the electronic configuration of ion with+3 that means 3 electrons are removed. On adding the 3 electrons, the electronic configuration of neutral atom can be obtained.

Thus, electronic configuration of neutral atom is [Kr]4d^{5}5s^{1}.

The atomic number of Kr is 36, thus, total number of electrons become 36+6=42.

This corresponds to element: molybdenum. Thus, the tripositive atom will be Mo^{3+}.

(b) The given electronic configuration is [Kr]5s^{2}4d^{2}.

The atomic number of Kr is 36, thus, total number of electrons become 36+4=40.

This corresponds to element zirconium, represented by symbol Zr.

A watering can is most likely measured in which metric unit
Iteru [2.4K]
A watering can is used to hold a water that we will use to water the plants. The water has both mass and volume. Two watering cans are most often different by the volume they contain. 

Many various units for volume are used but most often used unit is liter. In a metric system basic units are those such as meter, kilogram and liter while in imperial system units used are those such as foote, inch, pound and gallon.

Unit for volume in metric system is cubic meter. It is equal to a volume of a cube whose all sides measure 1m. This is equal to 1000L. For watering cans that contain several liters units used is decimeter cubed. 1dm^3 = 1L
