Physics
1 answer:
Anastaziya [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

b) the refracted ray has an angle of 90 degrees

Explanation:

The angle of incidence is measured with respect to the normal separation of the media. The critical angle for total internal reflection occurs is:

\theta=arcsin(\frac{n_2}{n_1})

Here n_2 and n_1 are the refractive index of the mediums. This equation is an application of Snell's law, for the case where  the refracted ray has an angle of 90^\circ.

Vlada [557]

well it depends on how much force was added but if they both have the same amount of force and they were rolled at the same time either they will bounce backwards or roll backwards not thats your question will they roll backwards are bounce backwards?

The sun emits __________ radiation, but it is radiated back off of planetary bodies as __________ radiation.
andriy [413]
<span>The answer to your question: <span>The sun emits shortwave radiation, but it is radiated back off of planetary bodies as longwave radiation.  </span></span>  
<span>
Explanation: The sun emits shortwave radiation, wherein it’s extremely hot and is filled with more energy compared to the radiation emitted by planets. This also comes in the form of light. However, once this becomes absorbed by planetary bodies, it turns into longwave radiation. A good example is the earth’s atmosphere emitting energy (longwave radiation), which is energy originally coming from the sun (shortwave radiation).</span>

Does time stop in a black hole
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

In standard GR, nothing exists at the center of a black hole. The center of a black hole is a singularity, and because GR fails at that point it is simply removed from the manifold. That means that the singularity is not part of spacetime.

To answer your question more realistically, we believe that GR is an approximate theory that fails well before you reach the center. Unfortunately, we have no good alternative theory with which to answer the question in the region where GR fails. We simply don’t have any data from that regime and it is very hard to formulate a good theory without data. So there very well could be time at the center, but we simply don’t have a good way to even guess.
