Answer: the refraction of light by the atmosphere

Explanation: Refraction is the phenomenon in which there is a change in direction of light passing from one medium to another or from a gradual change in the medium.

Here in case of sunset, the sun rays passes through the varying density of atmosphere because of varying concentrations of dust particles.

Reflection is the phenomenon in which the light bounces back after falling on a surface.

Absorption is the phenomenon in which matter captures the electromagnetic radiations and thus the energy of photons is converted to internal energy of the system.

Recall that the spring constant is inversely proportional to the number of coils in the spring, or that shorter springs equate t
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

x_1= 0.0425m

Explanation:

Using the tension in the spring and the force of the tension can by describe by

T = kx

, T = mg

Therefore:

m*g = k*x

With two springs, let, T1 be the tension in each spring,  x1 be the extension of each spring.  The spring constant of each spring is 2k so:

T_1 = 2k*x_1

2T_1 = m*g=4k x_1

Solve to x1

x_1=\frac{m*g}{4k}

x_1=\frac{k*x}{4*k}

x_1=\frac{x}{4}

x_1 = 0.170 / 4

x_1= 0.0425m
