Make a general statement about what happens to light as it enters a different medium.

Physics
1 answer:
Aleksandr-060686 [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Refraction is an effect that occurs when a light wave, incident at an angle away from the normal, passes a boundary from one medium into another in which there is a change in velocity of the light. The wavelength decreases as the light enters the medium and the light wave changes direction.

raketka [301]

Answer:

We know the information about atomic size, energy, electronic configuration etc. of atom from the periodic table.    

Explanation:

  • Periodic table is the arrangement of elements that are arranged according to their properties and electronic configuration.
  • In periodic table, on furthest right side of the periodic table, noble gases like He, Ne, Ar etc are arranged.
  • The atomic number of element increases while moving from left towards right in the periodic table.
  • The metallic character of element decreases as we proceed the table towards right.
  • They readily accept electron to fill the valence shell hence becoming more metallic in character.

If the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis if the speed is steadily increasing could the speef line ever become perfec
Phantasy [73]

A graph of real speed can have a section that's as steep as you want,
but it can never be a perfectly vertical section.

Any vertical line on a graph, even it it's only a tiny tiny section, means
that at that moment in time, the speed had many different values.

It also means that the speed took no time to change from one value to
another, and THAT would mean infinite acceleration.

If the car ha a mass of 1000 kilograms, what is its momentum (v=35m/s)
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

<em>The momentum of the car is 35,000 kg.m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Momentum</u>

Momentum is often defined as <em>mass in motion.</em>

Since all objects have mass, if it's moving, then it has momentum. It can be calculated as the product of the mass by the velocity of the object:

\vec p = m\vec v

If only magnitudes are considered:

p = mv

The car has a mass of m=1,000 kg and travels at v=35 m/s. Calculating its momentum:

p = 1,000 kg * 35 m/s

p = 35,000 kg.m/s

The momentum of the car is 35,000 kg.m/s

From a set of graphed data the slope of the best fit line is found to be 1.35 m/s and the slope of the worst fit line is 1.29m/s
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Solution:

Let the slope of the best fit line be represented by 'm_{best}'

and the slope of the worst fit line be represented by 'm_{worst}'

Given that:

m_{best} = 1.35 m/s

m_{worst} = 1.29 m/s

Then the uncertainity in the slope of the line is given by the formula:

\Delta m = \frac{m_{best}-m_{worst}}{2}               (1)

Substituting values in eqn (1), we get

\Delta m = \frac{1.35 - 1.29}{2} = 0.03 m/s

Using the right amount of significant figures, calculate the answer to the following problem, 215.5+101.02555
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

This is how I figured it out:

  1. 215.5 rounded to one significant figure is 200
  2. 101.02555 rounded to one significant figure is 100.
  3. 200 + 100 = 300.

Hope this helps!
