Physics
1 answer:
Naddik [55]3 years ago
6 0

Properties that define the light is a wave are

1. Speed : speed of light is 300,000 Km /s, It is most fundamenta property of light to define light is a wave

2. Reflection: Light particles or photons reflect off the particles or masses are continue to travel at the same speed.

3. colour

Which statement describes the reason for the change in the velocity of waves as temperature decreases?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

O The particles of the medium move more slowly and there are fewer chances to transfer energy.

Explanation:

Various media are made up of particles. These particles are in constant motion according to the kinetic theory of matter. Recall that temperature has been defined as the average kinetic energy of the particles in a medium. Hence, for any given medium, the velocity of particle motion increases or decreases linearly with temperature.

The speed of particles in any medium increases or decreases as the temperature of the medium increases or decreases as emphasised above. Hence, at low temperature, the velocity of waves set up by the motion of particles in a medium decreases and transfer the wave energy to neighbouring particles occurs more slowly than at high temperatures.

How can we tell when forces are acting on an object (science)
iren [92.7K]

If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,
then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of
these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be <em><u>a group</u></em> of forces (two or more) acting on
an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When
that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed
is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not
possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it.

A train travels a distance of 2000 km at an average speed of 120 km per hour. How long did the trip take? SHOW WORK
Igoryamba
S = d/t, s = 120, d = 2000, t = ?
Input the values,
120 = 2000/t
Make t the subject of the formula by cross multiplying, Therefore,
120t = 2000
Divide both sides by 120
t = 16.7hrs  to 1 decimal place.
If you're asked to convert it, you can.

Two blocks of masses 20 kg and 8.0 kg are connected togetherby
OleMash [197]

Answer:

14 N

Explanation:

The tension in the second string is puling both the masses of 20 kg and 8 kg with acceleration of 0.5 m s⁻²

So tension in the second string = total mass x acceleration

= 28 x .5 = 14 N . Ans..
