I think the correct answer is refraction. The bending of light when it changes media is called refraction. It is the bending of a wave as it go through a medium. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

A light ray incident on a block of glass makes an incident angle of 50.0° with the normal to the surface. The refracted ray in t
Andru [333]

Answer:

n_{glass} = 1.65

Explanation:

As we know that the angle of incidence is given as

i = 50.0^o

also we have angle of refraction as

r = 27.7^o

now by Snell's law we know that

n_{air} sin i = n_{glass} sin r

1 sin50 = n_{glass} sin 27.7

now we have

n_{glass} = \frac{sin 50}{sin 27.7}

n_{glass} = 1.65

28. Sound can be heard around a corner because of
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Diffraction of sound wavelengths.

Explanation:

Diffraction-A wave is able to bend around a corner due to the effects of diffraction. sound aves are capable of bending around corners in the same magnitude as it's wavelength making it possible to hear sounds around corners.

Yashoda prepares some lime juice on a hot day. She adds 80 g of ice at a temperature of 0°C to 0.32 kg of lime juice. The temper
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

hear energy required to melt 1 g of ice = 340 J ,

hear energy required to melt 80 g of ice = 340 x 80  J = 27220 J .

b ) energy gained by the melted ice ( water at O°C ) = m ct

where m is mass of water , s is specific heat and t is rise in temperature

= 80 x 4.2 x ( 8°C - 0°C)

= 2688 J .

c )

energy lost by lime juice = energy gained by ice and water

= 27220 J + 2688 J .

= 29908 J .

d )

Let specific heat required be S

Heat lost by lime juice = M S T

M is mass of lime juice , S is specific heat , T is decrease in temperature

= 320 g x S x ( 29 - 8 )°C

= 6720 S

For equilibrium

Heat lost = heat gained

6720 S = 29908 J

S = 4.45 J /g °C .
