What happens to a light wave when it travels from air into glass?

Light is refracted when it crosses the interface from air to glass in which it moves more slowly.
Since the light speed changes at the interface, the wave length of the light must change too. The wave length decreases as the light enter the medium and the light wave changes direction.

The next four questions refer to the situation below.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

 t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} t_{in},      t_{out} = \frac{D}{v_s +v_r}

Explanation:

This in a relative velocity exercise in one dimension,

let's start with the swimmer going downstream

its speed is

         v_{sg 1} = v_{sr} + v_{rg}

The subscripts are s for the swimmer, r for the river and g for the Earth

with the velocity constant we can use the relations of uniform motion

           v_{sg1} = D / t_{out}

           D = v_{sg1}  t_{out}

now let's analyze when the swimmer turns around and returns to the starting point

        v_{sg 2} =  v_{sr}  - v_{rg}

         v_{sg 2} = D / t_{in}

         D = v_{sg 2}  t_{in}

with the distance is the same we can equalize

           v_{sg1} t_{out} = v_{sg2} t_{in}

          t_{out} =  t_{in}

           t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} t_{in}

This must be the answer since the return time is known. If you want to delete this time

            t_{in}= D / v_{sg2}

we substitute

            t_{out} = \frac{v_s - v_r}{v_s+v_r} ()

            t_{out} = \frac{D}{v_s +v_r}

Consider this situation: A baseball player dives head-first
siniylev [52]
Of the forces listed I think the force of him diving and sliding across the infield acted on the player.

I think so because the slowing down was a result of an action, and I don’t think that should count as An action when it is the result of an action. However, the act of diving head-first into second base and sliding across the infield are independent actions and will cause friction, which will act upon the player.
