Answer:

<em>D. refraction</em>

Explanation:

Refraction: Refraction is change in direction of light rays. Refraction occurs whenever light rays travels from a transparent medium to another transparent medium of different density. The abrupt change in direction at the surface of the surface of the two media is referred to as <em>refraction</em><em>.</em>

<em>Refraction occurs when light travels from air to glass or from air to liquid.</em>

<em>Laws Of Refraction:</em>

(i) The incident ray, the refracted ray and the normal, all at the point of incident lies in the same plane.

(ii) The ratio of the sine of the angle of incident to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media.

<em>Thus the right option is D. refraction</em>

4. What is the period of the microwaves in the above question?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The period of a wave is the time for a particle on a medium to make one complete vibrational cycle. Period, being a time, is measured in units of time such as seconds, hours, days or years. The period of orbit for the Earth around the Sun is approximately 365 days; it takes 365 days for the Earth to complete a cycle.

The electrical force on a 2-c charge is 60 n. the electric field where the charge is located is
Kazeer [188]
The electrical force acting on a charge q immersed in an electric field is equal to
F=qE
where
q is the charge
E is the strength of the electric field

In our problem, the charge is q=2 C, and the force experienced by it is
F=60 N
so we can re-arrange the previous formula to find the intensity of the electric field at the point where the charge is located:
E= \frac{F}{q}= \frac{60 N}{2 C}=30 N/C

How far away is Earth from the Sun?
Snowcat [4.5K]
<span>d. 93 billion miles

</span>Earth, being the third planet from the sun is unique in the universe  because it is currently the only planet known to support life. Earth's distance from the sun is really one of  the key reasons why it is has widespread  life.Earth occupies what scientists sometimes call the Goldilocks zone. Its distance from the sun means its neither too hot nor too cold to support liquid water. Water is thought to be a key ingredient for life.<span> The energy from the sun in just the right intensity and the availability of water on the earth make it possible for life to thrive on earth. Plants use both these resources for photosynthesis and make nutrients that are available to support the life of animals on the earth. </span>

A man does 4,780 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.70 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 25.5 m.
wolverine [178]

Answer:

(A) Velocity will be 1.88 m/sec

(b) Force will be 187.45 N

Explanation:

We have given work done = 4780 j

Distance d = 25.5 m

(A) Mass of the truck m = m=2.70\times 10^3kg

We know that kinetic energy is given  by

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

So v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4780}{2.7\times 10^3}}=1.88m/sec

(B) We know that work done is given by

W = Fd

So F=\frac{W}{d}=\frac{4780}{25.5}=187.45N

PART A:
olga55 [171]

Answer:

4 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

From Equilibrium of forces, The Tension in string is cancelled by the Weight (product of mass and acceleration due to gravity) of the body acting downwards.

The Net force = Mass * Acceleration.

Since Net Force = 20 Newton, Mass = 5kg, therefore;

20 = 5kg * acceleration. Dividing the RHS and LHS of the equation by 5, we have;

Acceleration = \frac{20}{5} which gives 4.

Note: RHS means Right Hand Side.

         LHS means Left Hand Side.
