Wewaii [24]3 years ago

Answer

When the light goes from one medium to another medium with higher refractive index the velocity of the ray decreases, wavelength of the ray also decreases.

But the frequency of the ray when it enters the medium of higher refractive index remain same.

So, we can conclude that speed of ray and wavelength decrease but frequency remain unchanged.

A motorcycle is following a car that is traveling at constant speed on a straight highway. Initially, the car and the motorcycle
n200080 [17]

Answer:

a) 4.9 s

b) 167.8 m

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this question we need to make use of the equations of motion of both the motorcycle xm(t) and the car xc(t) at t=5

Let us consider the position of the motorcycle at t=5 as the origin, that is:

xm(t+5) = vt + (1/2)at^2

xc(t+5) = vt + 60 m

where v = 22.0m/s  and   a=5m/s^2

We are looking for the time t' when the position of the car and the motorcycle are the same:

xm(t'+5)=xc(t'+5)

vt' + (1/2)at'^2 = vt' +60m

t' = √(120 m /a) = 4.89898... s

Since we are considering the origin of the cooordinate system at the position when the motorcycle starts to accelerate, the distance travelled by the motorcycle until it catches the car is given by:

xm(t'+5)= vt' + (1/2)at'^2

xm(9.89898s) = (22 * 9.89898 + 2.5 * 9.89898^2)m

xm(9.89898s)= 167.777... m

The literary movement with which Wilde is most closely associated is Select one: a. romanticism b. existentialism c. Art for art
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Correct answer is ''c'' Art for art's Sake

Explanation:

Wilde wrote in the literary movement called Aestheticism during the late nineteenth century. Contrary to popular belief, Wilde did not create the literary movement, but played a role as a leader who promoted the movement. While Wilde was a college student the works of Algernon Charles Swinburne and Edgar Allan Poe influenced his own writing style. Also, the English essayist Walter Pater helped to form Wilde's humanistic aesthetics.

The philosophical foundations of Aestheticism come from Immanuel Kant. He formulated the idea of "art for art's sake". He believed that art was to be enjoyed for its own beauty regardless of social or moral concerns.

Which law describes how the Earth applies a gravitational force on the Moon, the Moon applies a gravitational force on Earth? *
nikdorinn [45]
The answer is Newton's 3rd Law. The reason why is because a force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. ... These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject ofNewton's third law of motion. Formally stated, Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
