Answer:

Refraction of light.

Explanation:

The phenomenon that causes an object to appear bent from above the surface of one medium to below the surface of another medium is called the refraction of light.

There are two laws for the refraction :

  • The ratio of sine of angle of incidence to the sine of angle of refraction is constant i.e.
  • \dfrac{sin\ i}{sin\ r}=constant
  • The incident ray, the refracted ray, the normal all lie in the same plane.

The phenomenon that causes by an object to appear bent from above the surface of one medium to below the surface of another medium is : Refraction

For example, try to dip a pencil in a glass of water.
You will observe that the pencil will give out an impression as if it's been bent, but it's actually just an illusion caused by the light refraction.

What figure represents a longitudinal figure
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The wavelength can always be determined by measuring the distance between any two corresponding points on adjacent waves. In the case of a longitudinal wave, a wavelength measurement is made by measuring the distance from a compression to the next compression or from a rarefaction to the next rarefaction.

Using a flowchart, discuss how a tsunami develops?​
Ahat [919]

Answer:

A tsunami is a sequence of particularly long water waves that can spread over very great distances and, as such, cause water to move.

When penetrating into areas of shallow water, the sea is compressed and thus piles up on the coasts to form several high tidal waves. These carry the water with great force far over the shoreline and usually cause great damage. During the subsequent retreat, the material carried away on the flooded land, often also people and animals, is mostly washed far out into the ocean.

Tsunamis occur as a result of sudden water displacement, such as when parts of the ocean floor are raised or lowered during an undersea earthquake or when large masses of earth and rock slide into the water as well as due to violent winds.
