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

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.

Liula [17]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

H = actual height of the superhero = ?

H₀ = height of the superhero as observed = 1.73 m

v = speed of the superhero = 0.50 c

Using the equation

H = H_{o} \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{c} \right )^{2}}

Inserting the values

H = 1.73 \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{0.50 c}{c} \right )^{2}}

H = 1.5 m

EARTH SCIENCE PLEASE ANSWER
Rzqust [24]

The Earth Science answers are shown below.

Explanation:

1. The movement of the sun will change the angle it has on the sky in 30 minutes, it is always moving from the east to the west, so in 30 minutes it would move more west, no matter at what time you make the experiment. From Earth, the Sun looks like it moves across the sky in the daytime and appears to disappear at night. This is because the Earth is spinning towards the east. The Earth spins about its axis, an imaginary line that runs through the middle of the Earth between the North and South poles

2. No, both marks are the same distance from the ground.  the amount of stick above the mark will not affect the distance that the shadow of the mark moves at all. The Sun's clockwise motion is an apparent motion caused by the rotation of the Earth. The counterclockwise rotation of the Earth in the Sun's light causes the shadow of the gnomon to move clockwise. As the Sun appears to move higher above the horizon before solar noon, the shadow grows shorter and shorter.

3. In the summer the shadows are shorter, and in the winter the shadows are longer. In the morning your shadow will point west and in the afternoon it will point east. If your shadow is long, it is near sunrise or sunset. Your shadow is shortest around noon.

4. If the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, then the Earth should rotate in the opposite direction from west to east (anti-clockwise). Earth's spin (or rotation) on its axis. Earth rotates or spins toward the east, and that's why the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars all rise in the east and make their way westward across the sky.

An object weighing 49 N is pushed across a floor by a force of 12 N. What is the acceleration of the object?
NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of object  = 49N

Force applied = 12N

Unknown:

Acceleration of object  = ?

Solution:

The acceleration of the object is found by dividing the force by the weight;

 Acceleration  = \frac{12}{49}   = 0.25m/s²

A 15-kg block at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a very light ideal spring of force constant 450 N/m. T
den301095 [7]

Answer:

0.266 m

Explanation:

Assuming the lump of patty is 3 Kg then applying the principal of conservation of linear momentum,

P= mv where p is momentum, m is mass and v is the speed of an object. In this case

m_pv_p=v_c(m_p+m_b) where sunscripts p and b represent putty and block respectively, c is common velocity.

Substituting the given values then

3*8=v(15+3)

V=24/18=1.33 m/s

The resultant kinetic energy is transferred to spring hence we apply the law of conservation of energy

0.5(m_p+m_b)v_c^{2}=0.5kx^{2} where k is spring constant and x is the compression of spring. Substituting the given values then

(3+15)*1.33^{2}=450*x^{2}\\x\approx 0.266 m
