What often happens to light when it travels from one medium to another

Physics
1 answer:
quester [9]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Although the speed changes and wavelength changes, the frequency of the light will be constant. The frequency, wavelength, and speed are related by: The change in speed that occurs when light passes from one medium to another is responsible for the bending of light, or refraction, that takes place at an interface.

Carol is farsighted ( presbyopia) and cannot see objects clearly that are closer to her eyes than about meter. She sees objects
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

1.0 dioptres

Explanation:

Farsightedness is an eye defect in which a person can see far objects clearly but not near objects. That implies that the patients' near point is farther than 25cm which is the normal least distance of distinct vision.

Farsightedness results from the eyeball being too long or the crystalline lens not being sufficiently converging.

Carol is farsighted with a near point of about a meter (100cm). We desire to make a lens to enable her near point be reduced to about 50cm. The focal length and power of this lens is calculated in the image attached.

The power of a lens is the inverse of its focal length in meters hence the 100 in the formula for power of the lens.

Suppose two vectors have unequal magnitudes. can their sum be zero? explain
GalinKa [24]

Answer;

-  No, Two vectors of unequal magnitude can never sum to zero.

Explanation;

-Two vectors of equal magnitude that are pointing in opposite directions will sum to zero.

-Two vectors of unequal magnitude can never sum to zero. If they point along the same line, since their magnitudes are different, the sum will not be zero.

- If they point in different directions, then you can always decompose one vector into two components: one along the other vector and one perpendicular to the other vector. In this case, the perpendicular component can never be eliminated.

The heating of groundwater forms
KIM [24]
The appropriate answer is c. geysers. A geysers a hot water fountain that spouts intermittently with great force, frequently accompanied by a thunderous roar. The world famous Old Faithful is located in Yellowstone National Park. This geyser erupts every 65 min sending a jet of water almost 60 meters into the air. Sinkholes and caves are formed by the action of groundwater on carbonate rocks which causes them to colapse and former these structures.
