Explanation :

Light shows many different types of phenomena like the reflection of light, refraction of light etc.

Refraction of light is the phenomena of bending of light when it passes from one medium to another. This is due to the difference in the refractive indices of two media.

Refractive index is given by :

$n=\dfrac{c}{v}$

c is the speed of light in vacuum

v is the speed of the light in a medium.

So, refraction occurs when a wave changes its speed.

Hence, the correct option is (D) "speed".

2. Tomas is hanging from a tree limb, that is inclined at a 65° angle. The force

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

57 N

Explanation:

Were are told that the force

of gravity on Tomas is 57 N.

And it acts at an inclined angle of 65°

Thus;

The vertical component of the velocity is; F_y = 57 sin 65

While the horizontal component is;

F_x = 57 cos 65

Thus;

F_y = 51.66 N

F_x = 24.09 N

The net force will be;

F_net = √((F_y)² + (F_x)²)

F_net = √(51.66² + 24.09²)

F_net = √3249.0837

F_net = 57 N

Estimate the order of magnitude of the length, in

Scrat [10]

A) a mouse, to an order of magnitude = 0.1 m ( a tenth of a meter ) That would be a big mouse but the alternatives are 1 meter or one hundredth of a meter... so go with 1/10th

b) Easy = 1 meter 

c) two choices 10m or 100 m . Go with 100 m 

d) Stretch it out , trunk tip to tail tip - call it 10 m 

e) Your choice 100 m or 1000 m..... These are estimates. So long as you are within one order of magnitude you can't really be given wrong. So I'd say 100m

A 0.15 kg project hits the ground with a speed of 11 m/s. The project comes to rest in 0.015 seconds. What is the net force?

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

ACCORDING TO NEWTONS SECOND LAW;

F = mass * acceleration

F = m(v-u/t)

m is the mass = 0.15kg

v is the final velocity = 11m/s

u is the initial velocity = 0m/s

t is the time = 0.015

Substitute;

F = 0.15(11-0)/0.015

F = 0.15(11)/0.015

F = 1.65/0.015

F = 110N

Hence the net force is 110N
