Does a spherical bubble of air in a volume of water act to converge or to diverge light passing through it?

Physics

Answer:

diverge light

Explanation:

The refractive index of water is greater than that of air which means that water is more denser than air and also air is optically rarer than water.

Thus,

When the beam of the light is incident from the air to the bubble which contains air, the light bends away from the normal and then the light travels from air to water and bend towards the normal. Thus, the light is first bend away from the normal and then towards the normal which means that the bubble has diverging nature. The light will likely to diverge.

Crank

Answer:

0.98°

Explanation:

The Sun appears to move across various constellation because of the Earth's revolution around it. This apparent motion is essentially same as the actual motion of the Earth. The orbit of Earth around the Sun is almost circular.

Time taken to complete one revolution = 365 days

Degrees traveled in 365 Days = 360°

The motion per day is

=\frac{360}{365}

= 0.98° per day

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

Energy of electron in  hydrogen atom is given by

E_n= \frac{13.6}{n^2}

now as becomes large

ΔE= E_n+1 - E_n= 18.6 eV(1/n^2- 1/(n+1)^2)

now, as n increases ΔE_n decreases

in the limit n→∞ ,  ΔE_n→0. Thus with increase in n, energy level come close to each other.

b) Since, the wavelength of the rays depends upon the energy level hence they too come closer.

c)Near the ionization threshold the energy level of the atoms come closer and the total energy of the electron becomes almost so that it can be easily removed from the orbit.

Photoautotrophs use light energy to convert carbon dioxide into organic compounds. This process is called photosynthesis. Chemoautotrophs extract energy from inorganic compounds by oxidizing them and use this chemical energy, rather than light energy, to convert carbon dioxide into organic compounds

U can also add solar energy and hydro energy. Solar energy is by using the sun, while hydro is by using the force of water.
This is how hydro energy works:
its is usually built near a waterfall, OK so when the water falls of the cliff of the water fall , it creates a force which helps turn the generator and then it is carried into poles of electricity. 
Hope this helps plus i gave u extra point Good luck :)
