Hysical science is defined as the study of observable phenomena in the universe.

<span>the main idea of physical science is known as the "scientific method". </span>

<span>this method states: </span>

<span>observe a "real" ( not imaginary ) phenomena. </span>

<span>make a hypothesis ( or theory / idea ) that EXPLAINS this phenomena. </span>

<span>conduct a real experiment to test this hyothesis. </span>

<span>confirm that the experiment validates the original hypothesis and if necessary amend the theory. </span>

<span>it has worked so well that the very communication you are having with me is a result of the wonders of physical science. </span>

Which is true about total internal reflection?

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

It can occur only when light is incident on an interface where the index of refraction on the other side is less.

Explanation:

When the light passes from a denser medium, with refractive index n1, to another less dense medium, with refractive index n2, the incident light beam is refracted in such a way that it is not able to cross the surface between both media, the light beam is fully reflected and completely confining in the optically denser medium through which it propagates. For this phenomenon to occur, it is necessary that the angle of the incident light beam with respect to the normal be greater than or equal to the critical incidence angle θc. The critical angle can be calculated as :

$\theta_c=arcsin(\frac{n_2}{n_1})$

Q1- the speed will increase because the particles will have more energy which causes them to move faster

trasher [3.6K]

<h3># Question </h3>

Q1- the speed will increase because the particles will have more energy which causes them to move faster

Explanation:

<h3>With an increase in temperature, the particles gain kinetic energy and move faster. The actual average speed of the particles depends on their mass as well as the temperature – heavier particles move more slowly than lighter ones at the same temperature. </h3>
