If the light is traveling straight up, then it hits the interface (surface
or boundary) between water and air perpendicularly (90° to the surface).

This direction is the direction of the 'normal' to the surface.  So the
angle of incidence is zero, and that means the angle of refraction is
also zero.  The light just keeps going in the same direction when it
emerges into the air, and is not bent.

However, its speed increases in air, and that means its wavelength
also becomes longer than it was in the water.

____ is the thermal energy transfer that occurs from the motion of fluid in a liquid or gas.
Marysya12 [62]
The answer is C. Convection.

Radiation is the transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves. Conduction, on the other hand, is energy transfer through solid material. Condensation occurs when warm gas makes contact with a cold surface or environment, which causes a change in state from gas to liquid. These definitions rule out choices A, B, and D. 

Convection is movement of particles in fluid or gas. As liquid/gas heats up, it becomes less dense and rises, moving away from the heat source. When it rises, it eventually cools down and sinks again. It is warmed up again and the cycle continues. This is why there is a circular motion when convection occurs.

Describe what happens to chromosomes before mitosis.
Brums [2.3K]

Explanation:

Before mitosis, the chromosomes are copied. They then coil up, and each chromosome looks like a letter X in the nucleus of the cell. The chromosomes now consist of two sister chromatids. Mitosis separates these chromatids, so that each new cell has a copy of every chromosome

In a star's cycle, which of the following can be thought of as opposites
Feliz [49]
Since there are no choices given, I will explain the cycle of a star. The beginning development of a star is marked by a supernova explosion, with the gases present in the nebula being forced to scatter. As the star shrinks, radiation of the surface increases and create pressure on the outside shell to push it away and forming a planetary nebula or white dwarf. <span>The star is a ball of hot gases containing different kinds of elements at different cores. It has a very high temperature that radiates all throughout the Milky Way galaxy. The star has four main parts; the core, photosphere, chromospheres and corona. The outer core of a star located at the chromospheres contains mostly of hydrogen. Inside the hydrogen is helium then carbon, oxygen, neon, magnesium silicon and the inert gas. When a star releases energy it is due to the thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. </span>

I was playing goalie in a soccer league and made a save. The ball was traveling at 14 m/s and has a mass of 0.45 kg. How muck ki
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Kinetic energy = 44.1 J

Explanation:

Given:

Velocity of ball = 14 m/s

Mass of ball = 0.45 kg

Find:

Kinetic energy

Computation:

An item's kinetic energy is force it has as a result of its motion. It is the amount of work necessary to move a body of a known volume from rest to a specified velocity.

Ke = (1/2)(m)(v²)

Ke = (1/2)(0.45)(14²)

Ke = (1/2)(0.45)(196)

Kinetic energy = 44.1 J
