Answer: The light is slowed down by the prism, but the different wavelengths of light are all slowed down a different amount by the prism.
Explanation:
What happens here is that white light passes from a medium with an specific index of refraction (air) to another medium with a different index of refraction (the material of which the prism is composed).
Then, when light passes from a medium to another, its speed changes causing the deviation of the beam of light. However, we are talking about white light that is composed of different wavelenghts. So, since the frequency of light remains costant when passing from one medium to another, the different wavelengths change as a result of the change in speed.
This was first observed by Isaac Newton in the eighteenth century, when he found out that when a beam of light from the Sun, passes trhough a prism is decomposed in many different colors.
Frequency= speed/ wavelength
f= 3.0 × 10^8 m/s/ <span>3.5 × 10^-9 m
=8.57x10^16

Answer:
1.52g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Force = 125N
Mass combined = 82kg
Unknown:
Acceleration of the bicycle = ?
Solution:
From Newton second law of motion suggests that:
Force = mass x acceleration
Acceleration = = = 1.52g
<u>Answer:</u>
"They stay in place and vibrate" is true about the particles of iron.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The iron in solid state have tiny particles like atoms, molecules and ions which stay in their position and can only vibrate slightly as their arrangement is compact in nature which do not allow them to move all over the place due to strong force of attraction called as "inter-molecular attraction".
While iron in molten form, being semi-solid have more spaces between the particles, therefore they vibrate more than the particles in compact situation of solid state. And definitely the inter-molecular force of attraction is also weaker than in between actual solid iron particles.
When solar radiation reaches the Earth it quickly dissipates as most of the radiation and UV rays are blocked by ozone layer, but more radiation and UV rays are able to get through because of global warming.
