<span>The light slightly "bends" as it goes around the edges of the object. This bending is typically dependent upon the size of the barrier in comparison to the wavelength of the object being diffracted. The more similar in size the two are, the much more noticeable the diffraction tends to be.</span>

Diffraction is the slight bending of light when it passes around the edge of an object. The amount of bending depends on the relative of the  wavelength of the light wave to the size of the opening. If the opening is much larger than the wavelength the bending will be almost unnoticeable but if the two are equal or closer in length then the diffraction will be noted. Therefore, the correct answer is bends.

Which law is associated with inertia
N76 [4]

Answer:

The focus of Lesson 1 is Newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

2. Use the diagram below to answer this question. As the ball moves from point A to C what is happening to the energy? Explain t
OLga [1]

Answer/Explanation:

The highest point of potential energy is A, when the ball rolls down the hill potential energy decreases and kinetic energy decreases, but the total energy is constant no matter what. This means the energy does not go away but instead is transferred to a different form.

A: most potential and least kinetic

B: losing potential gaining kinetic

C: losing more potential and gaining more kinetic

D: most kinetic and least potential

E: Gaining  potential and losing kinetic

F: Gaining more potential and losing more kinetic

G: more potential than kinetic but not the most potential
