Answer:
dispersion
As per your query the splitting of white or visible light into its component colours is known as dispersion. The splitting of white light when it passes through a glass prism into its constituent spectrum of colours is hereby known as dispersion.
Answer:
Explanation:
I am sitting on a train car traveling horizontally at a constant speed of 50 m/s. I throw a ball straight up into the air. Before , the ball gets separated from my hand , both me the ball will be moving with velocity of 50 m /s in horizontal direction .
As soon as ball is separated from the hand , it acquires addition velocity in upward direction and acceleration in downward direction . This will give relative velocity to the ball with respect to me . So I will see the ball going in upward direction under gravitational acceleration . It appears as if I am sitting at rest and ball is going in upward direction under deceleration . My motion at 50 m/s will have no effect on the motion of ball in upward direction , according to first law of Newton . It is so because ball too will be moving in forward direction with the same speed which will not be visible to me because I too am moving with the same speed.
If I am sitting at rest at home and I threw a ball straight up into the air , I will have the same experience of seeing ball going in similar way as described above.
Answer:
Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration.
Explanation:
Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration. For example, at 1 m/s an object is travelling a distance of 1 metre every second. But a rate of acceleration is a steady increase in velocity. So at 1 m/s^2, an object's velocity is increasing by 1 m/s every second.
