The separation of white light into its component colors is

Physics
1 answer:
Julli [10]3 years ago
5 0
<h2>Answer: dispersion</h2>

The dispersion of light occurs when a beam of white light (which is compound of many wavelengths or "colors") is refracted (the different rays of light are diverted depending on their wavelengths) in some medium, leaving their constituent colors separated.

The best known case is when a beam of white light from the sun passes through a prism, thus obtaining rays of different colors like those of the rainbow.

This phenomenom was named by Isaac Newton in the  eighteenth century, who performed the experiment explained above.

Hence, the correct option is C.

In the following equations, the distance x is in meters, the time tin seconds. and the velocity v is in meters per second. whata
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

A) c₁ = m, c₂ = m/s

B) c₁ = m/s²

C) c₁ = m/s²

D) c₁ = m/s c₂ = °

E) c₁ = m/s , c₂ = /s

Explanation:

A) x = c₁ + c₂t

⇒m = m + (m/s)s (Only same units can be added)

⇒m = m

So, c₁ = m, c₂ = m/s

B) x = 0.5c₁t²

⇒m = 0.5 (m/s²)s²

⇒m = m

So, c₁ = m/s²

C) v² = 2c₁x

⇒m²/s² = 2 (m/s²)m

⇒m²/s² = m²/s²

So, c₁ = m/s²

D) x = c₁ cos(c₂)t

⇒m = (m/s) cos(°)s

⇒m = m

So, c₁ = m/s c₂ = °

E) v² = 2c₁v-(c₂x)²

⇒m²/s² = 2(m/s)(m/s)-(1/s²)(m²)

⇒m²/s² =m²/s²

So, c₁ = m/s , c₂ = /s

A convex mirror never forms a real image of a real object. O True O False
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A convex mirror is a mirror whose outer bulging surface is the reflecting surface.

A convex mirror is used to see the distant objects and the image formed by the convex mirror is always erect and small. So, it is used as the rear view mirror.

It always forms a virtual, erect and diminished image of a real object.

It never forms a real image of a real object.
