Light rays bend as they pass from air into water at an angle (not 90 degrees). this is refraction. air water normal incident ray

refracted ray which quantity doesn't change when light refracts?

When light ray pass from air into water, its speed and wavelength change only the frequency of the light doesn't change.

Light travels slower in a medium of higher refractive index. It bends because of this change in speed. The wavelength of light also changes in order to maintain the constant frequency.

What is the relationship between temperature and altitude in the stratosphere? (2 points).
stealth61 [152]
As altitude increases, temperature increases. The stratosphere is the part of the atmosphere that starts in the tropopause and ends in the estratopause. In the troposphere, the air is close to the Earth surface. The air surface can absorb more sunlight energy than the air, so the Earth surface heats the air. As you go higher, the distance to the Earth surface is higher, so the temperature is lower. The troposphere ends in the tropopause, where this trend changes. In the estratopause, there is a lot of ozone, which absorbs the dangerous UV radiation and converts into heat. That heat warms the air. So the air which is close to the estratopause is warm because of the heat released by the ozone reactions. The tropopause is far from the Earth surface and far from the ozone layer, that’s why it is cold. So the tropopause is cold and the estratopause is warm, which means: the air becomes warmer <span>as you rise above the tropopause until you get to the estratopause.</span>

Which descriptions best fit the labels? X: kinetic energy Y: potential energy X: potential energy Y: kinetic energy X: mechanica
Pani-rosa [81]
W-APE. For example, work W done to accelerate a positive charge from rest is positive and results from a loss in PE, or a negative APE. There must be a minus sign in front of APE to make W positive. PE can be found at any point by taking one point as a reference and calculating the work needed to move a charge to the other point.

Which example is NOT a part of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Electricity is NOT a part of electromagnetic spectrum.

An electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic radiations arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Electromagnetic waves  </h3>
  • Electromagnetic waves are types of waves that do not require a material medium for transmission.
  • These waves are mostly transverse in nature, which means the direction of transmission is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of particles.
  • They include, light waves, radio waves, x-rays, infra-red, etc.
<h3>Electromagnetic spectrum </h3>
  • An electromagnetic wave shows electromagnetic waves arranged according to frequencies and wavelength.  
  • Electromagnetic spectrum contains electromagnetic waves: Gamma rays, x-rays, Ultraviolet, Visible light, infra-red, microwaves, and radio waves.
  • The electromagnetic spectrum is divided into various sections based on wavelength, with gamma rays having the shortest wavelength and radio waves having the longest wavelength.
  • The part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see using our naked eyes is called the visible light spectrum.
  • In order of frequency, the radio waves have the lowest frequency while gamma rays have the largest frequency.
<h3>General characteristics of electromagnetic waves  </h3>
  • They travel with the speed of light (3.0 x 10^8 m/s)
  • They possess energy that is given by; E =hf, where h is the plank’s constant and f is the frequency.
  • They are transverse in nature, and therefore, the wavelength is measured between successful crests or troughs.
  • They can travel through vacuum

Keywords: Electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves.
