Answer:

Light refracts when its speed changes as it enters a new medium.

Explanation:

Bending of light wave while it entering a medium with different speed is called refraction of light. Light passing from a faster medium to the slower medium bends the light rays toward the normal to boundary between two media. The amount of the bending of light depends on refractive index of the two media which is described by the Snell's Law. The angle of incidence is not equal to angle of refraction. Rainbow is caused but this refraction phenomena. Also Refraction is used in magnifying glasses, prism and lenses

On a cloudless day, the sunlight that reaches the surface of the earth has an intensity of about W/m². What is the electromagnet

Otrada [13]

Answer:

1.907 x 10⁻⁵ J.

Explanation:

Given,

Volume of space, V = 5.20 m³

Assuming the intensity of sunlight(S) be equal to 1.1 x 10³ W/m².

Electromagnetic energy = ?

$E = \mu V$

$E = (\dfrac{S}{c})\times V$

where c is the speed of light.

$E = (\dfrac{1.1\times 10^3}{3\times 10^8})\times 5.20$

$E = 1.907\times 10^{-5}\ J$

Hence, Electromagnetic energy is equal to 1.907 x 10⁻⁵ J.

What is the angle of deviation in a plane mirror at normal incidence?

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The deviation of a mirror is equal to twice the angle of incidence.The total angle between the straight-line path and the reflected ray is twice the angle of incidence. This is called the deviation of the light and measures the angle at which the light has strayed from its initial straight-line path.

For a star with a parallax angle of 1/2 of an at arcsecond, what will be its distance in parsec?

avanturin [10]

(1 parsec) is the distance at which an object has a parallax of 1 arcsecond. The distance is about 3.26 light years.

Another way to understand it is: The distance from which the Earth's orbit appears 1 arcsecond across.

For a parallax angle of 1/2 arcsecond, the distance is <em>2 parsecs </em>(about 6.52 light years).

1 arcsecond is 1/3600 of a degree, 0.00028 degree.
