Refraction refers to C. the bending of light rays when they pass from one medium into another

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon typical of wave. Refraction occurs when a wave travels through the boundary between two different mediums. When this occurs, the wave changes speed, wavelength and direction (but the frequency remains the same).

In particular, the direction of the refracted ray is determined by Snell's Law:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n_1 is the index of refraction of the 1st medium

n_2 is the index of refraction of the 2nd medium

\theta_1 is the angle of incidence, which is the angle between the direction of the incident wave and the normal to the boundary

\theta_2 is the angle of refraction, which is the angle between the direction of the refracted wave and the normal to the boundary

Therefore, the correct description of refraction is

C. the bending of light rays when they pass from one medium into another

Reptile [31]

The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

<h3>What is electric current?</h3>

Electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge round a conductor.

To calculate the electric current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • I = V/Rt........... Equation 1

Where:

  • I = Electric current passing through the 30 ohms resistor
  • V = Voltage
  • Rt = Total or effective resistance of the resistors.

From the question,

Given:

  • V = 100 volts
  • Rt = (30+20) ohms (since both resistors are connected in series)
  • Rt = 50 ohms

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • I = 100/50
  • I = 2 A

Hence, The current that would pass through the 30 ohms resistor is 2 A.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Evolutionary

Explanation:

Because our ancestors were afraid of these poisonous spiders and snakes which lead to them to telling their kids of these dangers. Their kids will fear them without even encountering any and this will also be passed on to their future generations.
