A.  the medium through which the light travels changes.

Explanation:

Light waves will continue to travel in a straight line in all directions from their source unless the medium through which the light travels changes.

A change in medium causes light to exhibit different properties. Also, when light hits an obstacle, they can be diffracted.

  • The way light travels on crossing a boundary differs.
  • At the boundary between two medium, light can either be reflected back or refracted when they cross the medium
  • This will cause the light rays to bend towards or away from the normal depending on the properties of the medium.

Hello!

These atoms are isotopes

Isotopes
are atoms with the same number of protons (which determine the atomic number) and a different number of neutrons. These two atoms have the same number of protons (13), but a different number of neutrons, so they are isotopes. 

According to their number of protons, these are Aluminum isotopes: ²⁷Al (stable), and ²⁶Al (radioactive), respectively. 

Have a nice day!

If the volume is held constant, what happens to the pressure of a gas as temperature is decreased? Explain.
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:Decreases

Explanation:

Given

Volume is held constant that is it is a isochoric process.

We know that

PV=nRT

as n,V& R are constant therefore only variables are

P & T

so \frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

\frac{P_1}{P_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}

As T_1 is decreasing therefore Pressure must also decrease so that ratio remains constant.

If you use a force of 90 N to pick up a 10 pound bag of charcoal, what is the acceleration?
hjlf

Answer:

9ms^2

Explanation:

since ,Force=mass*acceleration

then, acceleration=force/mass

and, Force=90N

Mass=10pound

therefore, acceleration=90/10

=9ms^2

Zain is standing on a bridge. He tosses a ball upwards, which rises, stops, and then falls all the way to the water (30 meters b
IgorC [24]

Answer:

A. 2.41 s.

B. 24.3 m/s.

Explanation:

vf = vi + 2a*t

where, vf = final velocity

= 0 m/s

vi = final velocity

= 1.5 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s^2

A.

ti = 1.5/(9.8 * 2)

= 0.08 s

Vf^2 = Vi^2 + 2a*s

1.5^2 = 2 * 9.8 * s

S = 0.115 m

Time taken to drop into the water,

30.115 = 1.5*to + 4.9*to^2

to = 2.33 s

Total time taken = ti + to

= 2.33 + 0.08

= 2.41 s.

B.

Vo = 0 m/s

S = 30.115 m

Vf = ?

Using,

Vf^2 = Vo^2 + 2*a*s

= sqrt (2*9.8*30.115)

= 24.3 m/s.
