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)

Which freezes faster, hot water or cold water?

Digiron [165]

Hot water seems to freeze faster than cold water, known as the Mpemba effect. The effect was named after the Tanzanian student who in 1963 noticed that hot ice cream mix freezes faster than a cold one. hope this helped

at what position an object be placed in front of a concave mirror of radius of curvature 40cm so that an erect image of magnific

Thepotemich [5.8K]

C=40cm
f=C/2=40/2=20

$\\ \sf\longmapsto m=\dfrac{f}{f-u}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3=\dfrac{20}{20-u}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3(20-u)=20$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 60-3u=20$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3u=40$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto u=13.3cm$

m=magnification
f is focal length
C is radius of curvature
u is object distance

A football quarterback runs 15.0 m straight down the playing field in 2.30 s. He is then hit and pushed 3.00 m straight backward

Monica [59]

Answer:

6.52 m/s

1.72 m/s

5.38 m/s

Explanation:

this question requires us to find the average velocity.

1. velocity in straight down direction:

velocity = distance/time

= 15.0/2.30

= 6.52 m/s

2. velocity in straight backward direction:

velocity = distance/time

= 3.00 /1.74

= 1.72m/s

3. velocity in straight forward direction

velocity = distance/time

= 28.0/5.20

= 5.38 m/s

these are the his velocities for each if the intervals.

thank you!

Mary Sue is making caramel ice cream. In the first part of the process, she combines a cup of sugar and a cup of water in a sauc

timurjin [86]

D. sugar changes from white to a light amber color We're looking for a chemical change. So let's examine the options and see what happening with them. A. adding cream and milk to the mixture She's just making a mixture here. No unexpected reactions or changes happen as she adds the cream and milk. So this is the wrong answer. B. mixing the sugar with water Dissolving the sugar in water. Once again, nothing unusual happens and if she were to evaporate the water, she'd be left with the original sugar. So this is the wrong answer. C. melting the sugar Just starting a simple phase change. Once again, no the right answer. D. sugar changes from white to a light amber color She's melted the sugar and has a clear fluid. As she continued to heat this fluid, it suddenly turns light amber. She has made a permanent change to the substance that she can't undo by simply physical means. She has converted part of the sugar into caramel. So a chemical change has happened here.

Answer these questions plz

lozanna [386]

1. The property of a conductor by virtue of which it posses the flow of electric current through it is called resistance.

2. The resistance of a conductor depends on the cross sectional area of the conductor and it's resistivity.

3.This id due to the fact that the resistance of a wire is inversely proportional to the square of its diameter.

4.Due to at high temperatures , the alloy donot oxidize. Alloy doesn't melt readily and get deformed.
