<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

They both involve wave interactions

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Refraction is a property of a wave that refers to the bending of a wave as it moves from one medium to another.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Diffraction on the other hand is a property of a wave such that an object causes a wave to change direction and bend towards it.</u></em>
  • <u><em>Diffraction and refraction differ in that, refraction occurs when waves pass through an object while diffraction occurs when waves pass around an object.</em></u>
  • <u><em>The similarity between refraction and diffraction is that they both involve interactions of waves and causes waves to bend thus changing their direction.</em></u>

It takes 500 J of work to compress a spring 10 cm. What is the force constant of the spring? (b) When a 3.0 kg block is pushed a
NARA [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Energy stored in spring = 1/2 k x² = .5 x k 0.1²

500 = 5 x 10⁻³ k ,

k = (500/5) x 10³ = 10⁵ N/m

b )

k = 4.5 x 10¹ = 45 N/m

Stored energy = 1/2 k x² = .5 x 45 x 8² x 10⁻⁴ =1440 x 10⁻⁴ J

This energy gets dissipated by friction .

work done by friction = μ mg d

d is the distance traveled under friction

so 1440 x 10⁻⁴ = μ x 3 x 9.8 x 2

μ = 245 x 10⁻⁴  or 0.00245 which appears to be very small. .

From laboratory measurements, we know that a particular spectral line formed by hydrogen appears at a wavelength of 121.6 nanome
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

b) The star is moving away from us.

Explanation:

If an object moves toward us, the light waves it emits are compressed - the wavelength of the light will be shorter, making the light bluer. On the other hand, if an object moves away from us, the light waves are stretched, making it redder. If from laboratory measurements we know that a specific hydrogen spectral line appears at the wavelength of 121.6 nanometers (nm) and the spectrum of a particular star shows the same hydrogen line appearing at the wavelength of 121.8 nm, we can conclude that the star is moving away from npos, since the wavelength related to that star is more expanded.

4. A car, initially traveling east with a speed of
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

150 m

Explanation:

Given,

u=5m/s

a=2m/s2

t=10s

v=?

s=?

Now,

v=u+at

=5+2×10

=5+20

=25m/s

So,

s=u+v/2×t

=5+25/2×10

=30/2×10

=15×10

=150m

Which of the following is an effect of the electric force?
stich3 [128]

As we know that two charges exert force on each other when they are placed near to each other

The force between two charges is given as

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

here we know that

q_1, q_2 = two different point charges

r = distance between two point charges

also we know that two similar charges always repel each other while two opposite charges always attract each other

so here correct answer would be

<em>A. A positive and negative charge attract each other.</em>
