When it is directed at a mirror it is reflected
When it is directed at a glass block it refracts
When it is directed through a prism the light splits to form a spectrum ( red orange yellow green blue indigo and violet )

Hope this is ok

An electric dipole consisting of charges of magnitude 1.70 nC separated by 6.80 μm is in an electric field of strength 1160 N/C.
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m     and  ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

Explanation:

The dipole moment of a dipole is the product of charges by distance

                        p = 2 a q

With 2a the distance between the charges and the magnitude of the charges

                        p = 1.7 10⁻⁹ 6.8 10⁻⁶

                        p = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ C m

 

The potential energie dipole  is described by the expression

                       U = - p E cos θ

Where θ is the angle between the dipole and the electric field, the zero value of the potential energy is located for when the dipole is perpendicular to the electric field line

Orientation parallel to the field

                      θ = 0º

                      U = 1.16 10⁻¹⁴ 1160 cos 0

                      U1 = 1.35 10⁻¹¹ J

Antiparallel orientation

                       θ = 180º

                      cos 180 = -1

                      U2 = -1.35 10⁻¹¹ J

The difference in energy between these two configurations is the subtraction of the energies

                         ΔU = | U1 -U2 |

                         ΔU = 1.35 10-11 - (-1.35 10-11)

                         ΔU = 2.7 10 -11 J

Help with both questions I’ll mark brainliest
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

(1) A sound wave a mechanical wave because mechanical waves rely on particle interaction to transport their energy, they cannot travel through regions of space that are void of particles. Sound is a mechanical wave and cannot travel through a vacuum. These particle-to-particle, mechanical vibrations of sound conductance qualify sound waves as mechanical waves. Sound energy, or energy associated with the vibrations created by a vibrating source, requires a medium to travel, which makes sound energy a mechanical wave. The answer is(B) it travels in the medium.

(2) An ocean wave is an example of a mechanical transverse wave

The compression is the part of the compressional wave where the particles are crowded together. The rarefaction is the part of the compressional wave where the particles are spread apart. The answer is (C) Compression.

You want to lean your dad's ladder on a smooth wall. If the mass of ladder is 4.42 kg and coefficient
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

angle minimum   θ = 41.3º

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law in the condition of static equilibrium

    N - W = 0

    N = W

The rotational equilibrium condition, where we place the axis of rotation on the wall

We assume that counterclockwise rotations are positive

     fr (l sin θ) - N (l cos θ) + W (l/2 cos θ) = 0

     

the friction force formula is

     fr = μ N

     fr = μ W

we substitute

      μ m g l sin θ - m g l cos θ + mg l /2   cos θ = 0

      μ sin θ - cos θ + ½ cos θ= 0

         

       μ sin θ - ½ cos θ = 0

       sin θ / cos θ = 1/2 μ

       tan θ = 1/2 μ

       θ = tan⁻¹ (1 / 2μ)

       θ = tan⁻¹ (1 (2 0.57))

      θ = 41.3º
