Answer:

It is called refraction.

Explanation:

When a ray of light enters through one medium to another, it deviates from its path. This deviation is called refraction.

When ray travel from rarer medium to denser medium then after refraction, it bends towards the normal.

When ray travels from denser medium to rarer medium, it bends away from the normal.

A concrete block is hung from an ideal spring that has a force constant of 100 N/m . The spring stretches 0.129 m .A- What is th
madam [21]

Answer:

1.31498 kg

0.72050 s

0.72050 s

Explanation:

m = Mass of block

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

k = Spring constant = 100 N/M

x = Displacement = 0.129 m

The force balance is

mg=kx\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{kx}{g}\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{100\times 0.129}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow m=1.31498\ kg

The mass of the block is 1.31498 kg

Time period is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{1.31498}{100}}\\\Rightarrow T=0.72050\ s

The period of oscillations is 0.72050 s

The time period does not depend on the acceleration due to gravity. It varies with the mass and the spring constant.

Hence, the time period would be the same

What is the theory behind a ticker tape lab?
Lana71 [14]
Purpose: experiments will use it to measure the straight-line accelerated motion of a human hand. The displacement data will be measured and velocity and acceleration will be calculated, run the ticker tape under the guides on the timer and under the carbon circle.Hope this helps! ; )

A car moving at 60 mph slams on its brakes to stop before hitting a deer. Another identical car traveling at 60 mph slows to a s
ankoles [38]

Happy Holidays!

Recall that:

Impulse = Change in Momentum = mass × change in velocity

Since both cars are identical and have the same initial velocity of 60 mph, them breaking to a stop means that they both experience the same change in velocity.

Thus, both of the cars' impulses are equal.

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

4 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 12 m

v₀ = 6 m/s

v = 0 m/s

Find: t

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

12 m = ½ (0 m/s + 6 m/s) t

t = 4 s
