<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.

Scorpion4ik [409]

"Erosion will increase, carrying more sand away than before" will most likely result.

Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

Erosion occurs when the sea area is consumed. There are five main mechanisms that cause coastal erosion. There is corrasion, hydraulic performance, abrasion, oxidation and solution/ corrosion.

Corrasion occurs when the waves remove dirt from the floor (like pebbles) and rotate it at the bottom of the rock. The shoreline is usually longer. Softer areas are covered with sediment from hard areas and rocks are removed.

The small metal cylinder has a mass of 0.20 kgkg, the coefficient of static friction between the cylinder and the turntable is 0
deff fn [24]

Answer:

velocity of the metal cylinder = 0.343 m/s

Explanation:

Force putting the metal cylinder is given by

F = mv²/r

But this force will balance the frictional force between the metal cylinder and the turntable

The frictional force is given by

μN = μ × mg = 0.08 × 0.2 × 9.81 = 0.15696 N

r = 0.15 m, m = 0.2 kg,

F = mv²/r = 0.2 v²/(0.15) = 1.3333 v²

1.3333 v² = 0.15696

v² = 0.117

v = 0.343 m/s

An air-filled capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 7.60 cm2, separated by a distance of 1.70 mm. A 21
Inga [223]

Answer:

12353 V m⁻¹ = 12.4 kV m⁻¹

Explanation:  

Electric field between the plates of the parallel plate capacitor depends on the potential difference across the plates and their distance of separation.Potential difference across the plates V over the distance between the plates gives the electric field between the plates. Potential difference is the amount of work done per unit charge and is given here as 21 V. Electric field is the voltage over distance.

E = V ÷ d = 21 ÷ 0.0017 = 12353 V m⁻¹
