Answer: When the white light travels through a prism then:

The light slows down.

The white light breaks into its component colors.

The light bends in the prism.

Explanation:

When the white light incidents on the surface of the prism then the light will undergo refraction due to the change in the speed of the light. The light will get refracted. The white light will get split into its components of seven colors.

The light ray bends towards the normal while it travels from rarer to the denser medium.

The light ray bends away from the normal while it travels from denser medium to rarer medium.

The white light travels at the speed of 3.0 × 10^8 m/s in vacuum. When it enters the prism then its speed will get slow down.

Inga [223]
From reliable sources in the internet, the half-live of carbon-14 is given to be 5,730 years. In a span of 10,000 to 12,000 years, there are almost or little more than 2 half-lives. Thus, there should be
                                           A(t) = A(0)(1/2)^t
where t is the number of half-lives, in this case 2. Thus, only about 1/4 of the original amount will be left.

A student gives a 5.0 kg box a brief push causing the box to move with an initial speed of 8.0 m/s along a rough surface. The bo
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The time taken to stop the box equals 1.33 seconds.

Explanation:

Since frictional force always acts opposite to the motion of the box we can find the acceleration that the force produces using newton's second law of motion as shown below:

F=mass\times acceleration\\\\\therefore acceleration=\frac{Force}{mass}

Given mass of box = 5.0 kg

Frictional force = 30 N

thus

acceleration=\frac{30}{5}=6m/s^{2}

Now to find the time that the box requires to stop can be calculated by first equation of kinematics

The box will stop when it's final velocity becomes zero

v=u+at\\\\0=8-6\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{8}{6}=4/3seconds

Here acceleration is taken as negative since it opposes the motion of the box since frictional force always opposes motion.

In a neutral atom the number of electrons equals the number of what part of what other part
koban [17]

Protons

Explanation:

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons in the atom.

  •  Electrons are the negatively charge particles in an atom
  • Protons carry positive charge.
  • Neutrons do not carry any charges.

Protons and neutrons are contained in the nucleus of an atom they determine the mass number of the atom.

In a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons must be the same.

A charge atom called an ion is one that has lost or gained electrons.
