Answer:

Speed of light decreases when it goes from a rarer medium to denser medium and increases when it travels from denser to rarer.

Explanation:

when light will fall on aquarium the glass wall and water inside it are denser compared to the air outside. so, the ray will refract from its original path (bending towards the normal) and decrease its speed. The reverse happens when it travels out of aquarium. the air is less dense compared to the water and glass so it will increase the speed.

Answer:

speed of light waves change when they travel in air to aquarium because want's the light hits the water you see bunches of color along with bigger looking objects

<h3>Answer: 104.5 cubic cm</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

r = radius = 1.045 cm

h = height = 30.48 cm

pi = 3.141 approximately

V = volume of cylinder

V = pi*r^2*h

V = 3.141*(1.045)^2*30.48

V = 104.547940002

V = 104.5 cubic cm

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

U₂ = 20 J

KE₂ = 40 J

v= 12.64 m/s

Explanation:  

Given that

H= 12 m

m = 0.5 kg

h= 4 m

The potential energy at position 1

U₁ = m g H

U₁ = 0.5 x 10 x 12        ( take g= 10 m/s²)

U₁ = 60 J

The potential energy at position 2

U₂ = m g h

U ₂= 0.5 x 10 x 4        ( take g= 10 m/s²)

U₂ = 20 J

The kinetic energy at position 1

KE= 0

The kinetic energy at position 2

KE= 1/2 m V²

From energy conservation

U₁+KE₁=U₂+KE₂

By putting the values

60 - 20 = KE₂

KE₂ = 40 J

lets take final velocity is v m/s

KE₂= 1/2 m v²

By putting the values

40 = 1/2 x 0.5 x v²

160 = v²

v= 12.64 m/s

Which of Galileo’s discoveries were later used in Newton’s laws?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a moving object will keep moving if not stopped

the sun being at the center of the solar system

Explanation:

Galileo is known for being the first person make a telescope, there fore being the first person to see that the sun is in the center of the solar system. he also came up with the theory that if something is pushed, it would keep moving until stopped by another force. For example, say you drop your pencil, it keeps falling until it hits the ground. That is exactly what Galileo did in his  Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment and found that theory to be true.
