Suppose a light ray is changing direction when it changes from one transparent medium to another. Which of the following changes

would make it change direction even more, to make a path with a greater angle to its original path? (select all that apply) A. change to a higher frequency of light B. move the incident ray to take a direction closer to perpendicular to the interface (closer to the normal line) C. change the second medium to get a greater difference than before in the speed of light in the two mediums D. make the light ray wider

The correct option is C i..e.
change the second medium to get a greater difference than before in the speed of light in the two mediums


Explanation: whenever light goes from one medium to another, kts frequency remains unchanged. It totally depends on tbe refractive index of the medium, which can change the speed of light.
If the refractive index of the entering medium is less than that of the medium from which light came,then the angle will be wider.

A student measured the maximum mass of salt that can dissolve in 100mL of water at five different temperatures. Which variable s
Wewaii [24]

Answer: The answer is B, The variable that should go on the x- axis is the temperature of water.

Explanation: In an experiment, we must have two variables; the independent variable and the dependent variable.

If the results of the experiment is reported in graphical format, the independent variable is plotted on the x axis while the dependent variable is plotted on the y axis.

In this case, the independent variable is the temperature of the water while the dependent variable is the mass of salt dissolved in 100 mL of water.

Therefore, the variable that should go on the x- axis is the temperature of water.

A box slides down a frictionless plane inclined at an angle θ above the horizontal. The gravitational force on the box is direct
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

D) Vertically.

Explanation:

A free body diagram is used to represent all the forces acting in a body. forces like, the force of gravity as a result of the gravitational interaction between the object and the Earth (W), the frictional force opposite to the movement of the object (F_{r}), the normal force due to the plane and the object (N) and the force applied to start the movement in a particular direction (F).

As is show in the free body diagram of the system, W, which is the weight of the body as a consequence of the gravitational force, is at an angle \theta below the inclined plane. that angle between the plane and the x axis is the same that the one of the inclined plane with respect to the horizontal, Since its sides are perpendicular.  

Notice how W goes always in the direction to the center of mass of Earth in a vertical path (For comparison see figure (a) and (b)).

In the long jump, an athlete launches herself at an angle above the ground and lands at the same height, trying to travel the gr
NikAS [45]

A) 2.64t

B) 2.64h

C) 2.64D

Explanation:

A)

The motion of the athlete is equivalent to the motion of a projectile, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- A uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration) along the vertical direction

The time of flight of a projectile can be found from the equations of motion, and it is found to be

t=\frac{2u sin \theta}{g}

where

u is the initial speed

\theta is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the time of flight is t.

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

g'=0.379 g

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. Therefore, the time of flight on Mars will be:

t'=\frac{2usin \theta}{g'}=\frac{2u sin \theta}{0.379g}=\frac{1}{0.379}t=2.64t

B)

The maximum height reached by a projectile can be also found using the equations of motion, and it is given by

h=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{2g}

where

u is the initial speed

\theta is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the maximum height is h.

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

g'=0.379 g

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. So, the maximum height reached on Mars will be:

h'=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{2g'}=\frac{u^2 sin^2\theta}{(0.379)2g}=\frac{1}{0.379}h=2.64h

C)

The horizontal distance covered by a projectile is also found from the equations of motion, and it is given by

D=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{g}

where:

u is the initial speed

\theta is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, when the athlete is on the Earth, the horizontal distance covered is D.

When she is on Mars, the acceleration due to gravity is:

g'=0.379 g

where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth. Therefore, the horizontal distance reached on Mars will be:

D'=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{g'}=\frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{(0.379)g}=\frac{1}{0.379}D=2.64D

The purpose of striking the ball in a volleyball game is to: 1. Place the ball in motion 2. Change the direction of the ball's m
zhenek [66]

Answer:

4. All of the above

Explanation:

The purpose of striking the ball in a volleyball game:

From the serve you could state that you need to place the ball in motion.

When returning a shot of, you normally want to change the direction of the ball's motion.

During a dropshot, you purposely want to slow down the ball's motion.

The correct answer must be all of the above.

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The answer is "5.53 \ \frac{m}{s}"

Explanation:

apply the formula for calculating the average velocity to the relative air

V_{PG} =V_{PA}+V_{AG}

\Rightarrow  V_{PA} = V_{PG} -V_{AG}

Given value:

V_{AG} = -2 \ \frac{m}{s}

V_{PG} =3.53

\Rightarrow  V_{PA} = 3.53 - (-2) \\\\\Rightarrow  V_{PA} = 3.53 +2 \\\\\Rightarrow  V_{PA} = 5.53  \\\\

The final answer is "5.53 \ \frac{m}{s}" in the south-east direction.
