Diffraction, that is the change in the direction of the wave, when it passes through a gap or around an edge. Diffraction is most noticable when the wavelength of the wave is approximately the same size as the hole, the gap

Answer: The correct answer is Diffraction.

Explanation:

Diffraction is the phenomenon in which a beam of light will get bend when it passes through a narrow aperture. It is accompanied by the interference between the wave form produced.

Consider a wave approaching a barrier with a small hole. The diffraction will occur when the wave passes through the hole. There is a bending of light as it passes through the edge of the object or through the hole.

The amount of bending light depends on the relative size of wavelength of the light in comparison to the size of the aperture.

Therefore, the correct answer is Diffraction.

An aircraft is moving horizontally with a speed of 50m/s, at the height of 2km, an object is dropped from the aircraft. What is
posledela

Explanation:

use the diagram^

horizontal velocity of the object nvr changes, it'll stay 50m/s till it hits the ground

initial vertical velocity = 0

to find the final vertical velocity, use the formula:

v {}^{2}  = u {}^{2}  + 2as

where u = 0m/s, a = 9.8m/s², and s = 2000m

solve for v.

for time taken to reach ground, use the formula:

v = u + at

where v = the value for v u calculated above, u = 0 m/s, a = 9.8m/s² and solve for t.

How is a compound similar to a homogenous mixture. how is it different
vivado [14]
Similar because they're combined evenly through out and can't be separated easily. They're different because a compound contains only elements, but mixtures contain many different things. A compound has a chemical formula, but homo mixturedoesn't.
