The ball accelerates because of gravity.

Because there is a 'net force' on it.  That means that all the different
forces on it do NOT all cancel out.  Whenever there is a net force on
an object ... not zero force ... the object accelerates.  (That means that
either its speed or its direction changes.)  We've known this for about
300 years now.
The main force on the ball is the force of gravity.

Refraction occurs through a glass slab why​
masha68 [24]

Answer:

One when it enters the glass slab from air and second time when it enters the air through glass slab. When light rays travelling through air enters glass slab, they get refracted and bend towards the normal. Now the direction of refracted ray changes again when it comes out of the glass slab into air.

Assume that a lightning bolt can be modeled as a long, straight line of current. If 16 C of charge passes by a point in 1.50 x 1
Reptile [31]

Answer:

B = 7.9012*10^{-5}T

Explanation:

To solve the problem, the concepts related to the magnetic field and the current produced in a lightning bolt are necessary.

The current is defined by the load due to time, that is to say

I= \frac{q}{t}

Where,

q= Charge

t = time

So the current can be expressed as:

I = \frac{16}{1.5*10^{-3}}

I = 10666.67A

Once the current is found it is now possible to find the magnetic field, as this is given by the equation,

B =\frac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\frac{I}{r}

Where,

\mu_0 =Permeability Constant

I= Current

r= radius

Replacing the values we have

B=\frac{4\pi*10^{-7}}{2\pi}(\frac{10666.67}{27})

B = 7.9012*10^{-5}T
