The speed of light in air does not depend on wavelength and light frequency. The speed of liht is a universal constant and is approximated to be 299,792,458 meters per second.

The wavelength does affect the speed of light. The wavelength travels slower in the air because particles are scattered all over. Refraction also plays an important role in the speed of light.   Refraction is the act of bending of particles as they enter into a medium.

in three situations, a briefly applied horizontal force changes the velocity of a hockey puck that slides over frictionless ice.
victus00 [196]

The work done on the Puck by the applied force from the most positive to the most negative is c, b, a respectively.

According to Newton's second law of motion, the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

F = ma

F= \frac{mv}{t}

The force applied to an object increases with increases in the velocity of the object.

In the given diagram, the resultant velocity of the puck is calculated as follows;

Figure a:

\Delta v = v_f -v_i\\\\\Delta v = 5 - 6 = - 1 \ m/s

Figure b:

v = \sqrt{4^2 + 3^2} \\\\v = 5 \ m/s

Figure c:

\Delta v = 4 - (-2)\\\\\Delta v = 6 \ m/s

Thus, the work done on the Puck by the applied force from the most positive to the most negative is c, b, a respectively.

A barometer reads 780 mm Hg. Mercury has a density of 1.36 x 10^4 kg /m^3.
iris [78.8K]

The pressure of the atmosphere, when a barometer reads 780 mm Hg.    Mercury which a density of 1.36 x 10^4 kg /m^3 is B 1.1 x 10^5 N/m^2

This problem can be solved using the formula below

P = dgh................. Equation 1

Where P = Pressure of the atmosphere, d = density of the mercury, h = height of the mercury, g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given: d = 1.36×10⁴ kg/m³, h = 780 mm = 0.78 m,

Constant: g = 10 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (1.36×10⁴)(10)(0.78)

P = 10.608×10⁴ N/m²

P ≈ 1.1×10⁵ N/m²

Hence the right answer is B. 1.1×10⁵ N/m²
