What are similarities and differences between refraction, reflection, diffraction and absorption?

1 answer:

8 0

Refraction and reflection both shows the wave property of light and the difference between them is that during reflection the medium of light will not change while in refraction the light will change its medium

so in reflection of light we use that angle of incidence = angle of reflections with respect to normal

While in refraction we use Snell's law

$n_1sin\theta_1 = n_2 sin\theta_2$

Diffraction of light is the phenomenon of light in which light will bend at the corners and enter into the region of dark

While absorption is the phenomenon of energy absorption when light incident on any medium or surface

What is it called cavity left behind in the rock after an organism's hard part has dissolved.

Lapatulllka [165]

Mold

Explanation:

A mold is a cavity that is left behind in the rock after an organism hard part has been dissolved. These are important fossils that useful in relative dating.

Some hard parts of organism are preserved in form of molds in soft sediments.
The outline and important details of the hard part is preserved when the mold dissolves away.
Fossil molds are representative on the internal outline of the hard parts of organisms.
They are usually recognized as a part of body fossil in a section.

What tripositive ion has the electron configuration [kr] 4d3 ? what neutral atom has the electron configuration [kr] 5s 2 4d2 ?

tigry1 [53]

(a)

Electronic configuration is given as follows:

$[Kr]4d^{3}$

Since, this is the electronic configuration of ion with+3 that means 3 electrons are removed. On adding the 3 electrons, the electronic configuration of neutral atom can be obtained.

Thus, electronic configuration of neutral atom is $[Kr]4d^{5}5s^{1}$ .

The atomic number of Kr is 36, thus, total number of electrons become 36+6=42.

This corresponds to element: molybdenum. Thus, the tripositive atom will be $Mo^{3+}$ .

(b) The given electronic configuration is $[Kr]5s^{2}4d^{2}$ .

The atomic number of Kr is 36, thus, total number of electrons become 36+4=40.

This corresponds to element zirconium, represented by symbol Zr.

An accepted value for the acceleration due to gravity is 9.801 m/s2. In an experiment with pendulums, you calculate that the val

Fed [463]

g Generally the accepted value of acceleration due to gravity is 9.801 $m/s^2$

as per the question the acceleration due to gravity is found to be 9.42 $m/s^2$ in an experiment performed.

the difference between the ideal and observed value is 0.381.

hence the error is - $\frac{0.381}{9.801} *100$

=3.88735 percent

the error is not so high,so it can be accepted.

now we have to know why this occurs-the equation of time period of the simple pendulum is give as- $T=2\pi\sqrt[2]{l/g}$

$g=4\pi^2\frac{l}{T^2}$

As the experiment is done under air resistance,so it will affect to the time period.hence the time period will be more which in turn decreases the value of g.

if this experiment is done in a environment of zero air resistance,we will get the value of g which must be approximately equal to 9.801 $m/s^2$

How are dwarf planets different from true planets?

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The only difference between a planet and a dwarf planet is the area surrounding each celestial body. A dwarf planet has not cleared the area around its orbit, while a planet has.

Explanation:

the three criteria of the IAU for a full-sized planet are: It is in orbit around the Sun. It has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape). It has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit .
