The answer is b) Speed.

Light refracting is the just the change of direction of the light. And the change of direction in the light is caused by the change in speed.

An example of this would be when light travels into the water. When light hits the water it slows down, causing a change in speed and ultimately changing the direction, causing a light refraction to occur.

A 210 Ohm resistor uses 9.28 W of

IgorLugansk [536]

Resistance=R=210Ohm
Power=9.28W=P

Current=I

$\boxed{\sf P=I^2R}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2=\dfrac{P}{R}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2=\dfrac{9.28}{210}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I^2\approx0.04$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\sqrt{0.04}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{100}}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\dfrac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{100}}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx\dfrac{2}{10}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto I\approx0.2A$

Insulators have very high .

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Resistance to electrical currents

Explanation:

Conductors have low resistance to electrical currents, and are used to "conduct" the flow of electricity.

Insulators have very high resistance and are used to protect us from the flow of electricity.

A 0.73-m aluminum bar is held with its length parallel to the east-west direction and dropped from a bridge. Just before the bar

Tasya [4]

Answer:

A) B = 5.4 10⁻⁵ T, B) the positive side of the bar is to the West

Explanation:

A) For this exercise we must use the expression of Faraday's law for a moving body

fem = $- \frac{d \phi }{dt}$

fem = $- \frac{d (B l y}{dt}= - B l v$ - d (B l y) / dt = - B lv

B = $- \frac{fem}{l \ v}$

we calculate

B = - 7.9 10⁻⁴ /(0.73 20)

B = 5.4 10⁻⁵ T

B) to determine which side of the bar is positive, we must use the right hand rule

the thumb points in the direction of the rod movement to the south, the magnetic field points in the horizontal direction and the rod is in the east-west direction.

Therefore the force points in the direction perpendicular to the velocity and the magnetic field is in the east direction; therefore the positive side of the bar is to the West
