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.

As you stand by the side of the road, a car approaches you at a constant speed, sounding its horn, and you hear a frequency of 8
kap26 [50]

Answer: velocity of the car is 113.33m/s

Explanation:

From Doppler effect,

in the case which the source is moving towards the observer at rest

f2 = v/(v-vs) *f1

where f2 is the final observed frequency

f1 is the initial observed frequency

v = 340m/s (speed of sound in air)

vs = velocity of the source of sound.

rearranging the above equation

f2*(v - vs) = f1* v

vs = (f1* v/f2) - v

but f1 = 80Hz

f2 = 60Hz

v = 340m/s

substituting,

vs = (80 x 340)/60 - 340

vs = 453.33 - 340

vs = 113.33m/s

velocity of the car is 113.33m/s

a current of 180 mini amphere passes through a conductor for 5minute calculate the quantity of electricity transported​
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

You can calculate the total electric charge that passes through the conductor as q=It=(180\times 10^{-3})(5\times 60)= 54 C. It means that the number of electron that passes through the conductor is:

n=\frac{q}{e}=\frac{54}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}=33.75\times 10^{19}

It takes 200 N to move a box 10 meters in 8 seconds. How much power is
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The equation of power is defined as Power = Workdone/Time Taken

And workdone = Force x Distance so using these equations we get they workdone is, 200x 10 = 2000Nm.

Dividing workdone with time will yield power, 2000 ÷ 8 = 250 Nm/s = 250W.

Science If you want to find the energy quantum of light, you multiply the frequency of the radiation (v) by "h". What is "h"?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

"h" signifies Planck's constant

Explanation:

In the equation energy E = h X v

The "h" there signifies Planck's constant

Planck's constant is a value, that shows the rate at which the energy of a photon increases/decreases, as the frequency of its electromagnetic wave changes.

It was named after Max Planck who discovered this unique relationship between the energy of a light wave and its frequency.

Planck's constant, "h" is usually expressed in Joules second

Planck's constant = 6.62607015 \times 10^{-34}  J.s
