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

Physics
1 answer:
quester [9]3 years ago

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.

A 600-kg car traveling at 30.0 m/s is going around a curve having a radius of 120 m that is banked at an angle of 25.0°. The coe

Answer:

The magnitude of force is 1593.4N

Explanation:

The sum of the horizontal components of the friction and the normal force will be equal to the centripetal force on the car. This can be represented as

fcostheta + Nsintheta = mv^2/r

Where F = force of friction

Theta = angle of banking

N = normal force

m = mass of car

v = velocity of car

r = radius of curve

The car has no motion in the vertical direction so the sum of forces = 0

The vertical component of the normal force acts upwards whereas the weight of the car and the vertical component friction acts downwards.

Taking the upward direction to be positive,rewrite the equation above to get:

Ncos thetha = mg - fsintheta =0

Ncistheta = mg + fain theta

N = mg/cos theta + sintheta/ costheta

fcostheta +[mg/costheta + ftan theta] sin theta = mv^2/r

Substituting gives:

f = (1/(costheta + tanthetasintheta) + mgtantheta = mv^2/r - mgtantheta)

Substituting given values into the above equation

f = 1/(cos25 + tan 25 )(sin25)[ 600×30/120 - (600×9.81)tan

f = 1593.4N25

Kitty [74]

Answer:

Right

Explanation:

electromagnetic waves can travel through space (a vacuum) because it doesn't need a medium and its particles to propagate whereas a mechanical wave needs a medium to propagate. For example sound is a mechanical wave, sound vibrates off a mediums particles to propagate and for sound to be heard and travel

The correct answer is B.
In a velocity vs time graph, a line going up means an increase in velocity, or speed, which correlates to positive acceleration. Negative acceleration means slowing down.

<span>According to Newton's first law of motion:

-- objects at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force

-- objects in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an outside force
