Answer: The correct answer is "The light ray will be refracted towards the normal".

Explanation:

Refraction: It is the phenomenon in which light gets bend while travelling from one medium to the another medium due to change in the speed of light.

The light ray gets bend towards the normal after travelling from the rare medium to the denser medium.

The light ray gets bend away from the normal after travelling from the denser to rarer medium.

In the given problem, If a light ray is traveling from air into a glass prism then the direction of the light ray will change after it enters the prism. The light ray will be refracted towards the normal

Therefore, the correct option is (A).

6kg of human blood at a temperature of 65degees celcius is mixed with 4kg of human blood ata temperature of 20 degrees celcius .
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

T_f=47^{\circ}

Explanation: Two samples of blood that have different masses and temperatures and are mixed, we have to find the final temperature of the mixture. the final temperature can be found using the following formula:

T_f=\frac{(m_1\cdot T_1+m_2T_2)}{(m_1+m_2)}\Rightarrow(1)

(1) Formula basically tells us that the product of mass and temperature remains constant throughout, so the addition of two products of the two separate blood samples would be equal to the product of final temperature and the total mass of the mixture. Mathematically this means that:

\mleft(m_1+m_2\mright)T_f=(m_1\cdot T_1)+(m_2T_2)

Using (1) and plugging in the corresponding values, we get the answer as follows:

\begin{gathered} T_f=\frac{(m_1\cdot T_1+m_2T_2)}{(m_1+m_2)}\Rightarrow(1) \\ m_1=6\operatorname{kg} \\ m_2=4\operatorname{kg} \\ T_1=65^{\circ} \\ T_2=20^{\circ} \\ \therefore\rightarrow \\ T_f=\frac{(6kg\cdot65^{\circ}+4\operatorname{kg}\cdot20^{\circ})}{(6kg+4\operatorname{kg})}=\frac{(390+80)}{10}=\frac{470}{10}=47^{\circ} \\ \therefore\rightarrow \\ T_f=47^{\circ} \end{gathered}

asambeis [7]
Alfred Wegener believed that all of the continents were originally attached! By looking at the map, you can see that Africa and South America look like they were once joined. This 'super continent' was known as Pangaea. He also found fossils that proved his point.
Hope this helps :)

What is the density of a block of marble that
EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

Solution,

Volume (v)=287 cm^3

Mass(m)=816 g

Density(d)=m/v

=816/287

=2.84

So, the density of the block of marbles is 2.84 g/cm^3.

I hope it helped U
