It's a toss up between b and c.
Light which allows you to see things (you can't see light itself, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see through the light !) often known as white light contains all the wavelengths of red orange yellow green blue indigo violet. So on that basis it's B.
But, if you pass "white light" through a prism spectrometer, you might also pick up Ultra violet and infrared among other wavelengths depending on the experiment. And that would lean the answer more to C.
I'd put 1p on the answer being B ... visible light spectrum ... I think

Which sequence shows all the spectral colors of visible light arranged in an increasing order of their frequency? A. red, yellow

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The answer is B. red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet

Explanation:

Most textbooks have the acronym ROYGBV to express the order in which colors appear on the spectrum of light, indigo is included in your list, and that's not a problem, although it's not typical. This spectrum of light is the same order in which colors appear in rainbows.

You are designing a new piece of fishing equipment that will allow you to catch a fish from the surface. You know that water ref

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Law of refraction

Explanation:

An experiment to analyze the refraction of light in water can easily be performed with a laser pointer and protractor.

We throw the fishing rod line into the water, place the protractor at the point where the line touches the water and use the direction of the line for the direction of the laser pointer (on), the laser is visible by the reflection on the particles in the air.

The vertical line is called Normal and all angles must be measured with respect to this reference in optics.

Having these angles and the refractive index of water we can use the law of refraction

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

θ₂ = $sin^{-1} ( \frac{n_1}{n_2} \ sin \ \theta_1 )$

we can repeat several times to analyze several different input points (different angles) and to decrease the errors in the measurements.

the refractive index of air is n1 = 1 and n2= 1.33 (water)

The maximum speed is 0.55 m/s

Explanation:

For an object in uniform circular motion, the force of friction between the object and the ground provides the centripetal force required to keep the body in motion. Therefore we can write:

$\mu_s mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}$
