The correct choice is

A. It moves along straight lines in air and changes direction when it enters water.

This is because of phenomenon of refraction which a ray of light experience when it moves from one medium to another medium. The light ray bends away from the normal to the surface if it travels from denser to rarer medium. The light ray bends towards from the normal to the surface if it travels from rarer to denser medium.

__________ is when a person becomes less sensitive to a drug. A. Tolerance B. Craving C. Addiction D. Dependence

Luden [163]

A) Tolerance

Tolerance is developed after using a drug repeatedly, so the body adapts to it. Because of that, people who develop a tolerance would then need to use more of that drug to get the same effect.

A 2.35-kg rock is released from rest at a height of 21.4 m. Ignore air resistance and determine (a) the kinetic energy at 21.4 m

kvasek [131]

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of rock, m = 2.35-kg

It was released from rest at a height of 21.4 m.

(a) The kinetic energy is given by : $E_k=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$
