Dispersion, I think.

The white light is a mixture of a large number of wavelengths of lights. The wavelengths all travel at different speeds in the medium. But in the prism they Travel with different speeds, hence when they pass the prism the length of the path travelled in the same time is different which is when they emerge out. So the colours are from different positions which results in a separation of colours. That is called dispersion of light.

Hi
romanna [79]

Answer:HERE IS YOUR ANSWER

THE POINTS ARE

IF WE PUT THE OBJECT BETWEEN THE FOCUS

AND THE POLE

THEN THE IMAGE FORMED WILL be MAGNIFIED

If that’s not what you are looking for, try this one:

For concave mirror the virtual image is formed when the object is kept in between the pole and the focus.  

Given here the "size of the image" is twice to that of the object.

Hence, it is consider that the magnification is +2.

So, the magnification value is positive and the image formed will be "virtual and erect". Thus, the object should be kept in between the "pole and the focus" in concave mirror."

Una mujer de 65 kg, se balancea sobre uno de los tacones de sus zapatos. Si el tacón es circular con un radio de 0,5 cm, ¿qué pr
goldenfox [79]
Explicacion

m = 65 kg

g = 10 m/s²

r = 0.5 cm (1m / 100 cm) = 0.05 m

A = π r² = π (0.05 m)² = 0.00785 m²

F =W = m g = 65 kg(10 m/s²) = 650 N

P = F/A = 650 N / 0.00785 m² = 82802.54 N/m²

A 36,287 kg truck has a momentum of 907,175 kg • m/s. What is the trucks velocity.
Airida [17]

Momentum = Mass x Velocity

Put the values where they belong and solve for Velocity.

In this case, since Mass is being multiplied by Velocity, to solve for be Velocity you would divide both sides by Velocity.  The velocity will equal the momentum divided by the mass.
