Answer:
Light refracts when its speed changes as it enters a new medium.
Explanation:
Bending of light wave while it entering a medium with different speed is called refraction of light. Light passing from a faster medium to the slower medium bends the light rays toward the normal to boundary between two media. The amount of the bending of light depends on refractive index of the two media which is described by the Snell's Law. The angle of incidence is not equal to angle of refraction. Rainbow is caused but this refraction phenomena. Also Refraction is used in magnifying glasses, prism and lenses
Answer:
Introducing a dielectric into a capacitor decreases the electric field, which decreases the voltage, which increases the capacitance.
Explanation:
A dielectric (or dielectric material) is an electrical insulator that can be polarized by an applied electric field. When a dielectric material is placed in an electric field, electric charges do not flow through the material as they do in an electrical conductor but only slightly shift from their average equilibrium positions causing dielectric polarization

Answer:
No; the graph fails the vertical line test.
The vertical line test is a tool used to determine if we have a function. If we can draw a single straight vertical line through more than one point on the red curve, then the graph is said to have failed the vertical line test. Consequently, this leads to the relation not being a function.
For this circle graph, we can draw a vertical line through more than one point, which is why we don't have a function here.
Put another way, there are inputs (x) that produce more than one output (y), so that's why we don't have a function.

Answer:
The astronaut can throw the hammer in a direction away from the space station. While he is holding the hammer, the total momentum of the astronaut and hammer is 0 kg • m/s. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum after he throws the hammer must still be 0 kg • m/s. In order for momentum to be conserved, the astronaut will have to move in the opposite direction of the hammer, which will be toward the space station.
Explanation:
Answer:
1 inch = 2.54 cm
12.9 inches= 12.9 x 2.54
= 32.766
= 32.8 cm (approximately)
