Compare and contrast between reflection and refraction

Physics
1 answer:
Tcecarenko [31]3 years ago
3 0

Differences:

<u>Reflection</u> is described as the reverting back of light or sound waves in the same medium, when it falls on plane.

<u>Refraction</u> means the shift in direction of the radio waves, when it enters medium with different density.

Comparisons:

<u>Reflection and refraction</u> <em>both</em> change the direction of light and both <em>do not </em>absorb light. All light waves can be reflected and refracted.

Both <u>Reflection and Refraction</u> are phenomenon related with wave motion of sound, and electromagnetic waves, thus including light.

A wave amplitude 0.36m interferes with a second wave of amplitude 0.22m traveling in the same direction. What is the largest res
DerKrebs [107]
The largest resultant amplitude would be that created by constructive interference, basically when the two waves are of the same phase, so it would be 0.36m+0.22m= 0.58 m.

I'm confusion, can I please get help???
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Anything below 7.0 is acidic, so the range would be 0 to 7.

Neutral is simply 7, in the middle of the scale.

Lastly, anything above 7.0 is basic or alkaline, so that would be 7 to 14.

Good luck, I hope this helps

Which of the following statements are true concerning the creation of magnetic fields? Check all that apply. Check all that appl
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

A permanent magnet creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

An electric current in a conductor creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

A moving electric charge creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

Explanation:

Magnet field is a region around the magnet in which the magnetic force can be experienced. A magnet has two poles: North pole and South pole. A Magnetic field originates from north pole and ends at south pole.

Magnets are of two types: Permanent magnet and temporary magnet.

A moving charge produces magnetic field. A stationary charge can not produce a magnetic field.

The rate of flowing charge constitutes an electric current. If the cardboard is placed around the current carrying conductor and the iron fillings spread around the cardboard then the iron nails get stick to it. It means that a current carrying conductor creates a magnetic field around it.

Therefore, the true statements from the given statements are as follows;

A permanent magnet creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

An electric current in a conductor creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.

A moving electric charge creates a magnetic field at all points in the surrounding region.
