According to Newton's first law of motion, it is the natural tendency of all moving objects to continue in motion in the same direction that they are moving ... unless some form of unbalanced force acts upon the object to deviate its motion from its straight-line path.
Hope this helped, have a great day!
Answer:
Distance will decrease and work will decrease:
F = m a Newton's Second Law
a = F / m decreasing force will decrease acceleration
S = 1/2 a t^2 = 1/2 (F / m) t^2 distance traveled will decrease as force decreases
W = F * S work will decrease as both force and distance decrease
Answer:
5. dispersion
6. 49.8°
Explanation:
5. Dispersion is the name given to the phenomenon of light of different wavelengths being bent differently. A rainbow is the result of light from a point source (the sun) being spread out by wavelength (color), a nice example of dispersion.
___
6. n = 1.31 is the ratio of the sine of the angle of refraction to the sine of the angle of incidence (for light passing to a medium of n = 1). When the angle of refraction is 90°, the angle of incidence is the "critical angle." So, ...
sin(90°)/sin(critical) = 1.31
critical angle = arcsin(1/1.31) ≈ 49.8°
