<em>Refraction</em> causes the ray of white light to be split into seven different colors.


Answer: <em>A. Refraction</em>

Refraction causes the light to bend. Each wavelength bends by a slightly different amount.

The light doesn't "split into 7 colors". It smears, into all of the thousands of colors that eyes can detect, plus some that they can't.

How much charge can be placed on a capacitor with air between the plates before it breaks down if the area of each plate is 4.00
klio [65]

Explanation:

Let us assume that the separation of plate be equal to d and the area of plates is 9 \times 10^{-4} m^{2}. As the capacitance of capacitor is given as follows.

            C = \frac{\epsilon_{o}A}{d}

It is known that the dielectric strength of air is as follows.

               E = 3 \times 10^{6} V/m

Expression for maximum potential difference is that the capacitor can with stand is as follows.

                       dV = E × d

And, maximum charge that can be placed on the capacitor is as follows.

               Q = CV

                   = \frac{\epsilon_{o} A}{d} \times E \times d

                   = \epsilon_{o}AE

                   = 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times 3 \times 10^{6} \times 4 \times 10^{-4}

                   = 1.062 \times 10^{-8} C

or,                = 10.62 nC

Thus, we can conclude that charge on capacitor is 10.62 nC.

a 0.15 kg baseball has a momentum of 0.78 kg*m/s just before it lands on the ground. What was the ball's speed just before landi
vovangra [49]

5.2m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of baseball = 0.15kg

Momentum of baseball = 0.78kgm/s

Unknown:

Speed of baseball = ?

Solution:

The momentum of the baseball is a function of the product of the mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity:

        Momentum = mass x velocity

 Since the speed of the ball is unknown:

           Velocity  =  \frac{momentum }{mass}

                           = \frac{0.78}{0.15}

                           = 5.2m/s

The speed of the baseball before it lands is 5.2m/s
