When light goes from one material into another material having a HIGHER index of refractionA) its speed decreases but its wavele

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

E) its speed and wavelength decrease, but its frequency stays the same

Explanation:

First of all, the frequency of a light wave does not depend on the medium, while wavelength and speed do. Therefore, the frequency remains costant.

In particular, the speed of light in a medium is given by:

$v=\frac{c}{n}$

where c is the speed of light in a vacuum and n is the index of refraction. From the formula, we see that v and n are inversely proportional: so, when the light moves into a material with higher index of refraction, its speed decreases.

Moreover, speed is related to wavelength by

$v=\lambda f$

where $\lambda$ is the wavelength and f is the frequency. Since the two quantities are directly proportional, this means that since the speed decreases, the wavelength decreases as well.

So, the correct choice is

E) its speed and wavelength decrease, but its frequency stays the same

Wagon wheel. While working on your latest novel about settlers crossing the Great Plains in a wagon train, you get into an argum

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

I = 16.7kgm²

Explanation:

Since, Torque is given by,

\tau = F*r = I*\alpha

here, I = Moment of inertia = ??

\alpha = angular acceleration of wheel = a/r

F = tangential tension acting on the wheel = T

a = acceleration of bag of sand = 2.95 m/s^2

r = radius of wheel = d/2 = 120/2 = 60 cm = 0.60 m

from force balance on sand bag,

mg - T = m*a

T = m*(g-a)

m = mass of sand bag = 20 kg

So, I = T*r/\alpha = m*(g-a)*r/(a/r)

Using known values:

I = 20*(9.81 - 2.95)*0.60/(2.95/0.60) = 16.74

I = 16.7 kgm² = Moment of inertia of wheel experimentally

also, Moment of inertia of wheel theoretically(I') = M*r²

given, M = mass of wheel = 70 kg

I' = 70*0.60²= 25.2 kgm² = Moment of inertia of wheel theoretically

Wich subatomic particle will you add or remove to change the charge of the atom A) Electrons or neutrons B)Neautrons or protons

Oxana [17]

B. Neutrons or Protons Adding or removing protons from the nucleus changes the charge of the nucleus and changes that atom's atomic number. For example, adding a proton to the nucleus of an atom of hydrogen creates an atom of helium. (Actually, a few neutrons have to be added as well to make the new nucleus stable, but the end result is still helium.)
