Answer:the average kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature . When water freezes, the temperature decreases and therefore, the average kinetic energy will also decreases as well.

A light wave traveling through medium 1 strikes a boundary with medium 2 at at a 45 degree angle. the light then enters the seco
Alona [7]

Here light ray strikes to interface at an angle of 45 degree and then refracts into other medium such that it will bend towards boundary.

So here the angle of incidence will be less than the angle of refraction as light moves towards the boundary after refraction which mean it will bend away from the normal

here it can be said that medium 2 will be rarer then medium 1

So here the possible options are

1. Water  

Air

2. Diamond  

Air

So in above two options medium 1 is denser and medium 2 is rarer

A man does 500 j work pushing a car a distance of 2m how much force does he apply
olasank [31]

Answer: 250 N

Explanation:

Use equation for work

W=F*d

d=2m

W=500J

F=?

-----------------------

W=Fd

F=W/d

F=500J/2m

F=250N

What is the minimum uncertainty in the vertical component of the momentum of each photon in the beam after the photon has passed
RoseWind [281]
<h3><u>Minimum uncertainty in the vertical component of the momentum of each photon:</u></h3>

According to Heisenberg's Uncertainty principle, both the “position and velocity of the particle” cannot be measured exactly at the same time. The momentum of the particle equals the product of its mass and velocity. And it can be inferred that the “product of the uncertainties” in the “momentum and the position” of a particle equals \frac{h}{4 \pi}.  

Immediately after the photon has passed through the slit, given particle has a momentum uncertainty of \Delta P_{x} and its position uncertainty is \Delta x, then the minimum uncertainty in its momentum will be

\Delta P_{x} . \Delta x \geq \frac{h}{4 \pi}
