Answer:

it is because the refracting surgaces of the prism are not parallel with each other

Answer:

Since different colours of light travel at different speeds, the refractive index is different for each colour. As a result, when light passes through the refracting surface of the prism,its components bend into different angles, causing the single beam of light to separate

At what speed does a falling hailstone travel? Does the speed depend on the distance that the hailstone falls?
Anton [14]

Answer:The speed if hailstone dependly largely on its size. A hailstone with a diameter of 0.39 inches,falls wit a speed of 20mph while a hailstone with 3.1 inches in diameter falls at a speed of 110mph.

No speed does not depend on the distance that the hailstone falls.

Explanation: There are other factors that affect the speed of the falling hailstone apart from its size.They are:

1. Friction between the air and the hailstone

2. Wind condition( windy or moist air)

3. The rate at which it melts falling.

Answer:

Tarzan will be moving at 7.4 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) of cliff = 2.8 m

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) =?

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Finally, we shall determine how fast (i.e final velocity) Tarzan will be moving at the bottom. This can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 2.8)

v² = 0 + 54.88

v² = 54.88

Take the square root of both side

v = √54.88

v = 7.4 m/s

Therefore, Tarzan will be moving at 7.4 m/s at the bottom.
