Explain the formation of color in terms of reflection and absorption of light waves.

Physics
1 answer:
antiseptic1488 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Every object has a different density and therefore carries different properties. When rays of white light strike an object, each ray light strikes the object with different frequency and therefore is absorbed and reflected differently from the host object.

In case if all the frequencies are absorbed by the object, it turns out to be black in color. Whereas on the other hand, if it is a mix of absorption and reflection, it makes different colors based on its frequencies and other properties of the object.

What activity would require more impulse?
Gnesinka [82]

B. Accelerating a bowling ball from rest to 35 m/s

Explanation:

Accelerating a bowling ball from rest to 35m/s will require more impulse compared to a baseball.

Impulse is the force acting on a body a particular period of time. It is similar to momentum.

When impulse is applied on a body, it change it state from rest and cause motion.

A body with more mass will require a higher impulse to cause it to accelerate. Bowling balls are heavier. They require more impulse to make them move.

erma4kov [3.2K]
The gravitational force is a balance between centripetal and centrifugal force that keeps the planets in their orbits when they are in motion. The gravitational force is a factor of the masses of the Earth and moon and the distance between them. If there were no gravitational force, the moon would stay out of the circular path and follow the direction as shown in the picture.

Carmen is heating some water and trying to measure the temperature of water using a Celsius thermometer. Which measurement can s
andrew-mc [135]

<u>100° C</u> she can expect once the water begins to boil.

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The boiling point for water at 1 pressure atmosphere of sea level is 212 ° F or 100 ° C. That value isn't a fixed. Water's boiling point is dependent on the ambient pressure, which varies based on elevation. At a lower temperature, water boils as one gains altitude like getting higher on a hill, and boils at a higher temperature if one increases the atmospheric pressure of returning to or below sea level.

It also relies upon the water's purity. Water containing contaminants like salted water boils at a level higher than pure water. This effect is called acceleration of the boiling point and is one of the material's colligative features.
