Answer:

The color that is refracted the most has the shortest wavelength

Explanation:

The warmer colors (yellow to red) have shorter wavelengths and the colder (green to violet) shorter wavelengths. Bearing in mind that light is radiant energy, the shorter the wavelength, the greater the frequency and the greater the amount of energy, allowing colors with shorter wavelengths to be more refracted.

The light can reflect in several ways but it follows a law: the angle of incidence is the same as the starting angle. If the light reflects on a perfectly smooth surface, such as in a mirror (which is glass with a silver film), the light will be reflected exactly as it did. That is why we see an image totally faithful in form and color when we see ourselves in the mirror. But if the object is not smooth, it will reflect part of the incident light and absorb the rest. The illumination of this object will reveal only its own color, shape, texture and not the image of a reflection. Black objects absorb light completely and white objects reflect it completely. The colorful visual sensation of objects, in fact, is the detection and perception of the wavelength that they are reflecting.

The color that is refracted the most has the SHORTER wavelength. The shorter the wavelength,the more it gets refracted.

Consider a metal bar of initial length L and cross-sectional area A. The Young's modulus of the material of the bar is Y. Find t

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Spring constant = YA / L

Explanation:

Let F be the force being applied on cross sectional area A of metal bar due to which an extension of ΔL is obtained in the wire of length L then

stress = F / A

strain = ΔL /L

Young's modulus = ( F / A ) / (ΔL /L)

Y = ( F L / A ΔL )

( F / ΔL ) = ( YA / L )

Spring constant = ( F / ΔL )

Spring constant = YA / L

A swimmer does 3560 j of work in 55 s what is the swimmers power output?

ankoles [38]

Explanation:

Here it is given 

Work (W) = 3560 J

Time (t) = 55 sec

power (P) = ?

We know we have the formula 

 $p = \frac{w}{t}$ 

P = 3560/55

P = 64.73 watt

According to the nfpa, the upper human survivability limit is approximately:

wolverine [178]

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) states that the furthest reaches of human temperature viability is 212°F, well beneath temperatures found in most noteworthy structure fires that are past the development (early) stage. In the present fire conditions, temperatures higher than 500°F can be effortlessly gotten inside three to four minutes. Flashover, which happens at roughly 1,100°F, can grow well under five minutes.2 If a space isn't legitimate for firefighters, caught casualties aren't probably going to survive either. Set aside the opportunity to make it safe and keep your firefighters from going for broke.

60% of the casualties were found to have been presented to warm (most at temperatures over 200°F; some were beneath) and mugginess for six to seven minutes (remote from the fire range).

Where do you weigh more: at the bottom of death valley or atop one of the peaks of the sierra nevada? why?

kiruha [24]

It won't make much of a difference, but since gravity is dependant of the distance between the 2 masses, the closer you are the more force. So in the bottom of a valley you will weight a little less.
