Answer: Refraction.

Explanation: The lenses are used to "transmit" the light that hits the lens in a certain way.

The phenomena in which the light penetrates a medium (where the medium, in this case, is the lens) is called diffraction.

Reflection would be more related to mirrors, difraction is the change of the velocity of the light waves when they are in different mediums, and interference refers to the interaction between two coherent waves (it can be destructive interference, where the waves cancel each other, or constructive interference, where the waves add to each other)

a pulley is used to lift a 2000 N safe over frosty's head. the safe is lifted 6m in 4s by Rudolph. how much power did Rudolph us
garri49 [273]

Answer:

3000W

Explanation:

Given parameter:

Weight of safe  = 2000N

Height of lift = 6m

Time = 4s

Unknown:

Power used by Rudolph = ?

Solution:

Power is the rate at which work is being done. It is expressed as:

 Power  = \frac{Work done }{Time taken}  

   Work done  = Weight x height = 2000 x 6  = 12000J

Power  = \frac{12000}{4}   = 3000W

In an iron rod the particles vibrate. If one end of an iron rod is heated, the vibrating particles transfer energy to neighborin
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Conduction

Explanation:

Conduction. When a substance is heated, its particles gain internal energy and move more vigorously. The particles bump into nearby particles and make them vibrate more. This passes internal energy through the substance by conduction , from the hot end to the cold end.

Fish in the aquarium looking much bigger than they are.
Alexandra [31]

b. Refraction

Explanation:

Fish in the aquarium are looking much bigger than they are due to refraction.

Refraction causes the path of light to bend and the velocity and wavelength attenuated.

This phenomenon occurs when light travels between two materials of different densities.

  • Air has a refractive index of 1
  • Water has a refractive index of 1.33
  • When light form water comes to air, the their angle changes.
  • This causes the magnification of the fish.

ozone, O3 methane, CH4 oxygen gas, O2 All of these may be classified as A) ionic compounds B) covalent compounds C) inorganic co
GrogVix [38]
They are all covalent compounds as they are made up of nonmetals. Ionic compounds are made up of a nonmetal and a metal. Some of the compounds are organic because they contain carbon so they cannot all be classified as inorganic. CH4, which is methane is reactive so this  makes D false.

The correct answer is B) covalent bonds.
