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

Douglas has a segment with endpoints I(5, 2) and J(9, 10) that is divided by a point K such that IK and KJ form a 2:3 ratio. He

Rufina [12.5K]

For the answer to the question above,
the distance from i to j is 5 parts
(2 parts from i to k and 3 parts from k to j)

The y distance from i to j is
10 - 2 = 8

Each part is 8/5 = 1.6
Therefore the distance between the 2 parts from i to k is 3.2

From the y coordinate of I which is 2 plus the 3.2 to point k
2 + 3.2 = 5.2

Answer y =5.2

Now just convert that to fraction and that will be the answer

Question 4 of 10

ch4aika [34]

Habitat fragmentation is a cost of urban development.

Option: A

Explanation:

Though from the view point or perspective of up gradation and development urban development is much needed but in cost of habitat fragmentation which feels very bitter. As habitat fragmentation leads to the loss of habitat, disruption of ecological cycle and environmental equilibrium.

Actually in the name of urban development we the human use our bread giver environment in a wrong way which causes natural disasters in long run. Animals become endangered , vulnerable and extinct with passage of time. Because they forced to enter into human settlements.
