Is it possible for an object to be going 100 miles per hour but have a velocity of zero?

It is possible for on object to be going at 100 miles per hour, but still have a velocity. This is because the object going at 100 miles per hour has speed, which is a scalar quantity, which is defined by only magnitude, but the velocity of the object can be 0, since velocity is a vector quantity which is defined by both magnitude and direction.

Since this object only has magnitude and no direction (which is not given), then the velocity can be 0

A flash of red light and a flash of blue light enter a glass cube perpendicular to its surface at the same time. after passing t
Wewaii [24]

A flash of red light and a flash of blue light enter a glass cube perpendicular to its surface at the same time. after passing through the block, the red light pulse exits first.

For any medium, other than vacuum, the index of refraction for red light is slightly lower (closer to 1 ) than that for blue light. This means that when light goes from vacuum (or air) into glass, the red light deviates from its original direction less than does the blue light. Also, as the light reemerges from the glass into vacuum (or air), the red light again deviates less than the blue light. If the two surfaces of the glass are parallel to each other, the red and blue rays will emerge traveling parallel to each other, but displaced laterally from one another.

what is refractive index?

The ratio between the speed of light in medium to speed in a vacuum is the refractive index. When light travels in a medium other than the vacuum, the atoms of that medium continually absorb and re-emit the particles of light, slowing down the speed light.

Answer:

it may be because of the movement of the atoms. i believe that the heat of the warm water makes it move faster, thus making the object float due to upthrust, or air pressure
