Shifting of tectonic plates.
Faults- two plates come together
Mountains- convergent movement
Islands- underwater volcanoes deposit volcanic rock into the same place until it's tall enough to be above sea level

Which describes the relationship between photon energy and the color of light?

Andrew [12]

Photon energy is directly proportional to the frequency of electromagnetic radiation.
(That would also mean that it's inversely proportional to the wavelength.)

So the photon energy increases as you scan the chart of visible colors
moving from the red end of the rainbow to the blue end.

A force (5ỉ - ;)N moves an object from the point P (1,3) m to the point Q (3, 8) m.

natita [175]

Answer:

b) 5 J

Explanation:

Work is the energy transferred by an object when acted by a force along a displacement. Work is the product of force and displacement. The SI unit of work is the joules (J)

To calculate the work done by the force, we have to first get the displacement (D) of the object. Hence:

Displacement (D) = Q(3, 8) - P(1, 3) = (3 - 1, 8 - 3) = (2, 5) = 2i + 5j

The work done is the dot product of the force and the displacement. Force = 5i - j. Hence:

Work done = (5i - j)(2i + 5j) = 10 - 5 = 5 J

Both the lens and the cornea of the eye have a primary function of

3241004551 [841]

Answer: B. bending light

Explanation:

The phenomenom of vision in human eye is thanks to refraction (when light changes its direction as it passes through one medium to another), and this is what the cornea and the lens do.

When the ray of light encounters the eye, the first thing it finds is the cornea, which bends this ray and begins to form an image, then light passes through the pupil, which is in charge of regulating the amount of light that enters in the eye.

After light travels through pupil it passes through the lens, where the rays of light change the direction again in order to focus the formed image on the retina.

At this point it is important to note the formed image is downward, then the retina transforms light into electrical impulses that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve and finally the brain interprets these messages, and forms a right upward image.

In the image attached these parts can be seen.
