Answer:
The speed of light changes as it moves between media. This causes refraction. Angles of refraction can be calculated using known speeds or wavelengths. Beyond the critical angle, light is reflected.
Answer:
The ball stops instantaneously at the topmost point of the motion.
Explanation:
Assume we have thrown a ball up in the air. For that we have given a force on the ball and it acquires an initial velocity in the upward direction.
The forces that resist the motion of the ball in the upward direction are the force of gravity and air resistance. The ball will instantaneously come to rest when the velocity of the ball reduces to zero.
The two forces acting in the downward direction reduces its speed continuously and it becomes zero at the topmost point.
Answer:


Explanation:
= Initial momentum of the pin = 13 kg m/s
= Initial momentum of the ball = 18 kg m/s
= Momentum of the ball after hit
= Angle ball makes with the horizontal after hitting the pin
= Angle the pin makes with the horizotal after getting hit by the ball
Momentum in the x direction

Momentum in the y direction


The pin's resultant velocity is 

The pin's resultant direction is
below the horizontal or to the right.
Answer:
Flow rate 2.34 m3/s
Diameter 0.754 m
Explanation:
Assuming steady flow, the volume flow rate along the pipe will always be constant, and equals to the product of flow speed and cross-section area.
The area at the well head is

So the volume flow rate along the pipe is

We can use the similar logic to find the cross-section area at the refinery

The radius of the pipe at the refinery is:



So the diameter is twice the radius = 0.38*2 = 0.754m

Below is an attachment containing the solution.
