C. change length and direction

Explanation:

The density of the material in which the light wave is travelling affects the speed of the wave. Different materials have different densities and they effect differently light waves which travel through them. Light waves may change direction at the boundary between two transparent materials, depending on material density. Density also impacts the speed of light. The denser the material, the slower light travels through it. The wavelength also decreases as light travels through the denser medium.

A plane flying at a steady speed of 100 m/s accelerates to 150 m/s in 10 seconds. What is the plane’s acceleration?

Rashid [163]

A plane flying initially at 100 m/s uses an acceleration of 5 m/s² to reach a velocity of 150 m/s in 10 seconds.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.

A plane is flying initially at 100 m/s (u) and it accelerates to 150 m/s (v) in 10 s (t). We can calculate its acceleration using the following expression.

a = v - u / t = (150 m/s - 100 m/s) / 10 s = 5 m/s²

A plane flying initially at 100 m/s uses an acceleration of 5 m/s² to reach a velocity of 150 m/s in 10 seconds.

A roller coaster has a "hump" and a "loop" for riders to enjoy (see picture). The top of the hump has a radius of curvature of 1

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Part a)

$F_n = 306 N$

Part b)

$v = 12.1 m/s$

So this speed is independent of the mass of the rider

Explanation:

Part a)

By force equation on the rider at the position of the hump we can say

$mg - F_n = ma_c$

now we will have

$mg - F_n = \frac{mv^2}{R}$

$F_n = mg - \frac{mv^2}{R}$

now we have

$F_n = 100(9.81) - \frac{100(9^2)}{12}$

$F_n = 981 - 675$

$F_n = 306 N$

Part b)

At the top of the loop if the minimum speed is required so that it remains in contact so we will have

$F_n + mg = ma_c$

$F_n = 0$ at minimum speed

$mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}$

$v = \sqrt{Rg}$

$v = \sqrt{15 \times 9.81}$

$v = 12.1 m/s$

So this speed is independent of the mass of the rider

Giving brainly, please help

brilliants [131]

Answer:

when the mug is heated thus its temperature rises increasing the kinetic energy of the molecules , the oscillations around the rest position in the mug(solid) increases which increase the spaces between molecules and the mug expands. what cause the cracking is that outside of the mug expands before the inside and the mug cracks

In the average US household, the television is on 6.75 hours/day! How many hours will have passed after 77.7 years (the average

Nady [450]

Answer:

191433.4 hours

Explanation:

We are given that In the average US household, the television is on 6.75 hours/day! How many hours will have passed after 77.7 years (the average lifeexpectancy of an American)?

1 year - 365 days

Given that the television is on 6.75 hours/day.

If 1 year = 365 days

Convert 77.7 years to days by multiplying it by 365

77.7 × 365 = 28360.5 days

So the number of hours will be:

28360.5 × 6.75 = 191433.375 hours

Therefore, 191433.4 hours will pass.

Non of the options is correct.
