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).

How much mass should be attached to a vertical ideal spring having a spring constant (force constant) of 39.5 n/m so that it wil
mrs_skeptik [129]
The frequency of a simple harmonic oscillator such as a spring-mass system is given by
f= \frac{1}{2 \pi}   \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }
where 
k is the spring constant
m is the mass attached to the spring.

Re-arranging the formula, we get:
m= \frac{k}{4 \pi^2 f^2}
and since we know the constant of the spring:
k=39.5 N/m
and the frequency of oscillation:
f=1.00 Hz
we can find the value of the mass attached to it:
m= \frac{39.5 Hz}{4 \pi^2 (1.00 Hz)^2} = 1.00 kg

What is the mass of a crate if a net force of 12 N gives the crate an acceleration of 0.20 m/s2?
Veseljchak [2.6K]
A :-) for this question , we should apply
F = ma
Given - F = 12 N
a = 0.20 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
12 = m x 0.20
m = 12 by 0.20
m = 60 kg

.:. The mass is 60 kg.
