<span>The de-acceleration or negative acceleration of stopping is what damages bones. The ground is rigid and therefore the change in momentum when striking the ground will be large. On the trampoline, the elasticity of the material means that the momentum changes more slowly, resulting in smaller accelerations.</span>

Why were quasars and active galaxies not initially recognized as being “special” in some way?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

In the past, astronomers look into the sky and the universe as a whole with an idea that it is a place where stars are born, transition through their life stages and ultimately die and this is because they couldnt differentiate between stars, quasars and active galaxies because with advanced equipment, they all look similar but as they technological ages arrived, they were able see that they are not the same.

What is the S.I. unit of drift velocity and electron mobility?
DanielleElmas [232]
Drift velocity is equal to displacement of the moving object per unit time. The SI unit for displacement is meters while that of time is second. Hence the derived SI unit of velocity is meter per second. This also applies to electron mobility which relates to the displacement per unit time of a moving electron

<h2>Answers:</h2><h2 /><h2>a) Arrow B</h2><h2>b) Arrow E</h2>

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon in which a wave (the light in this case) bends or changes its direction <u>when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.</u>  Where the Refractive index is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material.  

According to this, if we observe the rays  A an D passing throgh the biconcave lens, we will have two mediums:

1) The air

2)The material of the biconcave lens

This two mediums have different refractive indexes, hence the rays will change the direction.

-For the incident ray A, the corresponding refractive ray is B, because is the ray that bends after passing throgh the lens

-For the incident ray D, the refracted ray is E following the same principle.
