<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Different wavelengths of light bend at different angles.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • When light hits an object, some of the light waves are reflected off the object and some are absorbed. For example, if an individual is looking at a red apple, red light waves are reflected off the apple and all the rest of the color are absorbed. Similarly when the individual is looking at a lemon, yellow light waves are reflected and all the other colors are absorbed.
  • <em><u>Different wavelengths of light bend at different angles which explains the dispersion of light to generate different colors. Therefore, when the light ray hits the CD, different wavelengths of light bends at different angles and the light gets separated into different bands of light. This explains the reason why Hilda saw different colors.</u></em>

The appropriate answer is ' The smooth surface of the CD causes wavelengths of light to scatter. The CD at this point acts somewhat like a prism splitting white light into the colors of the rainbow. This is called the visible spectrum of light and is composed of the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.

A 0.850 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 18 N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it wit
Sveta_85 [38]

The block's speed at the point where x=0.25A is v = 31.95 cm/s.

<h3>What is Spring constant?</h3>

The spring stiffness is quantified by the spring constant, or k. For various springs and materials, it varies. The stiffer the spring is and the harder it is to stretch, the bigger the spring constant.

question is incomplete, this is the remaining statement

What is the amplitude of the subsequent oscillations? And What is the block's speed at the point where x=0.25A?

x = Asin(wt)

v = Aw coswt

at t = 0

w = sqrt(k/m)

v = Aw

A = v/w

A = 7.17 cm

part b )

E = 1/2mv^2 + 1/2kx^2 = 1/2kA^2

mv^2 + k(1/4A)^2 = 1/2kA^2

mv^2 + kA^2/16 = kA^2

mv^2 = kA^2 - kA^2/16

mv^2 = 15kA^2/16

v^2 = 15/16 * (k/m) * A^2

v^2 = 15/16 *w^2A^2

v = sqrt(15/16) * wA

v = 31.95 cm/s

The velocity of a spinning gyroscope drops from 12 rad/s to 6 rad/s due to deceleration of -1.2 rad/s^2. how much time expires d
Rudik [331]
<span>5 seconds expired during the deceleration. Top rotated 45 radians during these 5 seconds. First, calculate the chance in velocity, by subtracting the initial velocity from the final velocity. So 6 rad/s - 12 rad/s = -6 rad/s So we lost a total of 6 rad/s. Divide that by the deceleration to give the number of seconds. So -6 rad/s / -1.2 rad/s^2 = 5 s So it takes 5 seconds for the deceleration to happen. The equation that expresses the number of radians performed under constant deceleration with an initial velocity is d = VT + 0.5 AT^2 where d = distance V = initial velocity T = time A = acceleration Substituting the known values gives. d = VT + 0.5 AT^2 d = 12 rad/s * 5s + 0.5 * -1.2 rad/s^2 (5s)^2 d = 60 rad -0.6 rad/s^2 *25s^2 d = 60 rad -15 rad d = 45 rad So the top rotated 45 radians while decelerating from 12 rad/s to 6 rad/s</span>
