Answer:
Curves around objects
Explanation:
Diffraction is a property of light described by bending of light around an object. This ability of light to bend around edges has facilitated optical effects of light where there is interference of light waves. Other properties of light are: reflection, refraction, polarization, scattering of light, and interference of light.
Answer:
A basketball sitting still in a players hands
Explanation:
The other 3 answers have the ball <u>in motion</u> (going towards the basket, bouncing, and rolling) so that would be <u>kinetic energy</u>.
When the basketball is sitting in the player's hands, it has the potential to be in motion.
Ticker Tape analysis is a common way of analyzing the motion of the objects to perform in the physics laboratory. A long tape is attached to a moving object and threaded through a device that places a tick upon the tape at regular intervals of time. This ticker tape can also determine if the object is fast or slow. It can also reveal if the object is moving with a constant velocity or accelerating. The changing velocity and acceleration represented by the changing distance between dots in the ticker tape. And also the constant velocity and therefore no acceleration represent the constant distance between dots.
Answer:
One way to look at this is to consider the forces acting on any point in a string.
For a very small portion of string F = M a must still hold. As M approaches zero the small portion of string would have to approach infinite acceleration if the net force on that portion of string were not zero.
One generally considers the net force acting on the center of mass of an object not the individual forces acting on each infinitesimal mass composing
the object.
