Which uses the refractive properties of light to separate it into its different wavelengths?

Physics

miss Akunina [59]3 years ago
5 0

A). No.  A mirror doesn't separate light into its different wavelengths.

B). No.  Light doesn't separate into its different wavelengths when it
goes, say, from glass into water.

C). No.  When light goes through your glasses, it doesn't separate
into its different wavelengths.

D). Yes !  When sunlight shines into droplets of water in the atmosphere,
it comes out separated into its different wavelengths.  When we see that
happening in the air in front of us, we call it a "rainbow".

A bus is moving with the velocity of 72km/he has acceleration 0.5m/².How long will it take to gain the velocity of 30 m/s?​
stepan [7]

First km/h to m/s:

m/s = km/h / 3.6

m/s = 72 / 3.6

m/s = 20

Now, use the formula:

Vf = Vo + at

Clear t:

t = (Vf - Vo) / a

Replace:

t = (30 m/s - 20 m/s) / 0.5 m/s²

Resolving:

t = 10 m/s / 0.5 m/s²

t = 20 s

It will take <u>20 seconds.</u>

Coming to the bottom of a mountain, a skier moving with speed v collides with a barrier and is brought to a stop in an amount of
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse of a force is measured by force x time or F X t

Impulse also equals change in momentum or

F x t = m v₂ - m v₁

The given case is as follows

in the first case

F x t = mv - o = mv

F = mv / t

in the second case

F₁ x 4 t = mv

F₁ = 1/4 x mv /t

F₁ = F / 4

option a) is correct .

iii )

In the last case

F₂ X t = m v/2 -0

F₂ = 1/2 x mv / t

= 1/2 x F

F₂ = F/2

Option e ) is correct.

A disk-shaped grindstone of mass 1.7 kg and radius 8 cm is spinning at 730 rev/min. After the power is shut off, a woman continu
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0.186 N-m        

Explanation:

mass of the grindstone, m=1.7 kg

radius, r=8 cm

Frequency, f=730 rev/min = 12.16 rev/s

time, t=9s

final angular velocity, \omega=0

Initial angular velocity,

\omega_o=2\pi f\\=2\pi (12.16) rad/s\\= 76.36 rad/s

Angular acceleration of the grind stone is:

\alpha=\frac{\omega-\omega_o}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha =\frac{0-76.36}{9} = -8.48 rad/s^2

Moment of inertia:

I=mr^2+mr^2=2mr^2

I=2\times 1.7 kg\times (0.08m)^2= 0.022kg-m^2

Torque exerted by the ax on the grind stone is:

\tau=I\alpha\\\tau=0.022\times (-8.48) \\\tau=0.186N-m
