Answer:
Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. The size and shape of a shadow depend on the position and size of the light source compared to the object.

Explanation:
-Chemical energy in the battery is converted into Electrical Energy which powers up the phone.
-The electrical energy is then converted to Light Energy when the phone is powered up, this is seen through the lightening up of the phone screen.
-During phone calls, the electrical energy is further converted to Sound Energy to allow for transmission of audio signals.
- As we continue to use the phone, the electrical energy is converted into heat energy which we feel due to an overheating battery.
-The cycle then repeats itself again whenever a phone is charged.
Answer:
v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s
Explanation:
The velocity of propagation of a wave is
v = λ f
in the case of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum the speed that speed of light
v = c
When the wave reaches a material medium, it is transmitted through a resonant type process, whereby the molecules of the medium vibrate at the same frequency as the wave, as the speed of the wave decreases the only way that they remain the relationship is that the donut length changes in the material medium
λ = λ₀ / n
where n is the index of refraction of the material medium.
Therefore the expression is
v = 
Let's look for the frequency of blue light in a vacuum
f =
f = 
f = 6.667 10¹⁴ Hz
the refractive index of air is tabulated
n = 1,00029
let's calculate
v = 
450 10-9 / 1,00029 6,667 1014
v = 2,99913 10⁸ m / s
we can see that the decrease in speed is very small
Answer:
16
Explanation:
Mechanical advantage = force out / force in
MA = 2000 N / 125 N
MA = 16
Answer: The Sun measures 1.4 million km across, while the Moon is a mere 3,474 km across. In other words, the Sun is roughly 400 times larger than the Moon. But the Sun also happens to be 400 times further away than the Moon, and this has created an amazing coincidence.
