Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

The speed of a car is defined as the ratio of the distance traveled by the car to the time taken by the car.

speed = distance / time

The average speed of the car is defined as the ratio of the total distance traveled by the car to the total time taken by the car.

Average speed = total distance traveled / total time taken

Instantaneous speed is defined as the speed of the car at any instant.

Answer: Instantaneous speed is measured at each particular instant, and average speed is the sum of the instantaneous speeds.

Light rays bend as they pass from air into water at an angle (not 90 degrees). this is refraction. air water normal incident ray
xxTIMURxx [149]

When light ray pass from air into water, its speed and wavelength change only the frequency of the light doesn't change.

Light travels slower in a medium of higher refractive index. It bends because of this change in speed. The wavelength of light also changes in order to maintain the constant frequency.

If a car crashes into another car like this, the wreck should go nowhere. Besides this being an unrealistic question, the physics of it would look like this:

Momentum before and after the collision is conserved.

Momentum before the collision:
p = m * v = 50000kg * 24m/s + 55000kg * 0m/s = 50000kg * 24m/s
Momentum after the collision:
p = m * v = (50000kg + 55000kg) * v

Setting both momenta equal:
50000kg * 24m/s = (50000kg + 55000kg) * v

Solving for the velocity v:
v = 50000kg * 24m/s/(50000kg + 55000kg) = 11,43m/s
