<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.

Thermodynamic Processes: An ideal gas is compressed isothermally to one-third of its initial volume. The resulting pressure will
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The resulting pressure is 3 times the initial pressure.

Explanation:

The equation of state for ideal gases is described below:

P\cdot V = n \cdot R_{u}\cdot T (1)

Where:

P - Pressure.

V - Volume.

n - Molar quantity, in moles.

R_{u} - Ideal gas constant.

T - Temperature.

Given that ideal gas is compressed isothermally, this is, temperature remains constant, pressure is increased and volume is decreased, then we can simplify (1) into the following relationship:

P_{1}\cdot V_{1} = P_{2}\cdot V_{2} (2)

If we know that \frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} = \frac{1}{3}, then the resulting pressure of the system is:

P_{2} = P_{1}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} \right)

P_{2} = 3\cdot P_{1}

The resulting pressure is 3 times the initial pressure.

An igneous rock becomes buried, is subject to high heat and pressure, and recrystallizes. This rock then is eroded, transported,
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

When an igneous rock becomes buried, is subjected to high heat and pressure, and recrystallizes it is formed into  Metamorphic rock. Now this rock is eroded, transported, deposited and subsequently lithified to be converted into Sedimentary rock.

The same igneous rock is first converted into Metamorphic and then into sedimentary by the process of weathering.

The energy photon affects which property of light
Triss [41]

Answer:

photoelectric effect

Explanation:

When the energy from photons is absorbed by matter, the matter can emit electrons. This process is called the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect is a property of light that is not explained by the theory that light is a wave.

You and your friend live in different states and plant identical hydrangea bulbs in your garden. When they bloom, you send each
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

sample. rewrite in your own words if you'd like.

Explanation:

Since the hydrangeas are changing color depending on whether the soil is acidic or basic, they must have an indicator. This means that any hydrangea planted in acidic soil will have blue flowers and any hydrangea planted in basic soil will have pink. One common indicator present in many plants is anthocyanin, so maybe hydrangeas contain that chemical.
