Light refracts when it passes through some objects. What is refraction?

Physics
1 answer:
blagie [28]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

in physics, the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another caused by its change in speed. For example, waves in deep water travel faster than in shallow.from one medium to another or from a gradual change in the medium. Refraction of light is the most commonly observed phenomenon, but other waves such as sound waves and water waves also experience refraction in other words it can be all of them or i can narrow it down some more it can have a change in dirction when light enters into a traveling point for example after moving through air it passes through a prism called  compare reflection

crimeas [40]

Answer:c

Explanation:

Given

Alice launches with horizontal velocity u=25\ m/s

Tom simply drops straight down from the edge

Time taken by both the person is same as they have same initial vertical velocity i.e. zero so the time taken to reach the ground is zero.

Although Alice will travel more horizontal distance compared to Tom.

Thus option c is correct

Pls help me with this problem!!
Olenka [21]

Answer:

v = 19.6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of the circle, r = 5 m

The time period of the ball, T = 1.6s

We need to find the ball's tangential velocity.

The formula for the tangential velocity is given by :

v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{T}

Putting all the values in the above formula

v=\dfrac{2\pi \times 5}{1.6}\\\\v=19.6\ m/s

So, the tangential velocity of the ball is 19.6 m/s. Hence, the correct option is (c).

Answer:

<u>0.04 °C⁻¹</u>

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate linear expansivity, then after finding that value, we can move on to finding the area expansivity.

<u />

=============================================================

Finding Linear Expansivity :

⇒ α = Final length - Original length / (Original length × ΔT)

⇒ α = 9 - 4 / (4 × 70 - 20)

⇒ α = 5 / 5 × 50

⇒ α = <u>0.02</u>

============================================================

Finding Area Expansivity :

⇒ Area Expansivity = 2 × Linear Expansivity

⇒ β = 2 × α

⇒ β = 2 × 0.02

⇒ β = <u>0.04 °C⁻¹</u>
