Explain what white light is and what it’s composed of.

Physics
1 answer:
Nataly_w [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer and Explanation:

The light that comes from the sun is called white light. Actually white light is a mixture of lights of different colors. When we look at the rainbow we can see the colors that make up the white light. This phenomenon, known as dispersion, occurs when a ray of composite light is refracted (refraction) in some medium, and its constituent colors are separated.

I attached you I picture where you can see this process

Basically, when the light passes through a glass prism, the different wavelengths that make up the beam of light travel inside it at different speeds and curl differently when entering and leaving resulting in a beam deviated from the initial direction and with its separate components.

8. A student does 1,000 J of work when she moves to her dormitory. Her internal energy is decreased by 3,000 J. Determine the he
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The heat loss during the process = -4000 J

Explanation:

Work done by the student (W) = - 1000 J

Negative sign on the system is due to work done on the system.

Decrease in internal energy (U) = - 3000 J

We know that heat transfer in the system is given by (Q) = U + W

⇒ Q = - 1000 - 3000

⇒ Q = - 4000 J

This is the value of heat transfer during the process And negative sign indicates that heat loss during the process.

Red light strikes a metal surface and electrons are ejected. If violet light is now used with a 10% greater intensity, what will
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

correct answer is C

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was correctly described by Einstein, where he assumes that the light ray is formed by photons that are articulated and behaves like an elastic shock, the energy of this particular is described by the Planck equation.

             K = h f + Ф

where k is the kinetic energy of the electrons, f the frequency of the photons and Ф the work function of the material.

In this experiment, red light removes electrons, it is assumed that each photon spreads an electron if we have another light with more energy and 10% more intense, that is, with 10% more shapes and each arcane an electron the number of electrons removed of; material is increased by 10%.

The change in wavelength and consequently the frequency

            c = λ f

            f = c /λ

therefore, the wavelength of the voilet λ = 400 num has a higher frequency and therefore more energy, so that the turned-on turns have more kinetic energy.

With these approaches we examine the final answers where the correct answer is C

An object accelerates from rest to 85m/s over a distance of 36m. What acceleration did it experience?
Marizza181 [45]
Suvat
we have s, u, v and we want a
the suvat equation with these values in is: v^2 = u^2 - 2as
so a = (-v^2 + u^2)/-2s 
plug numbers in
a = (-85^2 + 0^2)/-2*36 = 7225/72 = 100.3... ms^-2

Describe the process of how a bill becomes a law in at least 4-5 sentence
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Step 1: A Bill Is Born

Anyone may draft a bill; however, only members of Congress can introduce legislation, and, by doing so, become the sponsor(s). The president, a member of the cabinet or the head of a federal agency can also propose legislation, although a member of Congress must introduce it.

Step 2: Committee Action

As soon as a bill is introduced, it is referred to a committee. At this point the bill is examined carefully and its chances for passage are first determined. If the committee does not act on a bill, the bill is effectively "dead."

Step 3: Subcommittee Review

Often, bills are referred to a subcommittee for study and hearings. Hearings provide the opportunity to put on the record the views of the executive branch, experts, other public officials and supporters, and opponents of the legislation.

Step 4: Mark up

When the hearings are completed, the subcommittee may meet to "mark up" the bill; that is, make changes and amendments prior to recommending the bill to the full committee. If a subcommittee votes not to report legislation to the full committee, the bill dies. If the committee votes for the bill, it is sent to the floor.

Step 5: Committee Action to Report a Bill

After receiving a subcommittee's report on a bill the full committee votes on its recommendation to the House or Senate. This procedure is called "ordering a bill reported."

Step 6: Voting

After the debate and the approval of any amendments, the bill is passed or defeated by the members voting.

Step 7: Referral to Other Chamber

When the House or Senate passes a bill, it is referred to the other chamber, where it usually follows the same route through committee and floor action. This chamber may approve the bill as received, reject it, ignore it, or change it.

Step 8: Conference Committee Action

When the actions of the other chamber significantly alter the bill, a conference committee is formed to reconcile the differences between the House and Senate versions. If the conferees are unable to reach agreement, the legislation dies. If agreement is reached, a conference report is prepared describing the committee members' recommendations for changes. Both the House and Senate must approve the conference report

Step 9: Final Action

After both the House and Senate have approved a bill in identical form, it is sent to the president. If the president approves of the legislation, he signs it and it becomes law. Or, if the president takes no action for ten days, while Congress is in session, it automatically becomes law.If the president opposes the bill he can veto it; or if he takes no action after the Congress has adjourned its second session, it is a "pocket veto" and the legislation dies.

Step 10: Overriding a Veto

If the president vetoes a bill, Congress may attempt to "override the veto." If both the Senate and the House pass the bill by a two-thirds majority, the president's veto is overruled and the bill becomes a law.
