Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Refraction is defined as the process by which a wave changes its direction of propagation and bends towards the normal when moves from a rarer medium to a denser medium. The light after entering the new medium bends towards the normal. This process takes place due to the change in the wave speed and also due to the change in its wavelength.

As the waves enter a denser medium (such as glass) from the rarer medium (such as air), the wave speed decreases and so its wavelength also decreases. The speed and wavelength here are directly proportional to each other. It is because there are more particles in the denser medium that obstructs the direction of wave propagation.

Thus, the correct answer is an option (D).

2. A 55 kg woman has a momentum of 200 kg m/s. What is her velocity?
NeTakaya

Answer:

\boxed {\tt 3.63636364 \ m/s}

Explanation:

Velocity can be found using the following formula:

v=\frac{p}{m}

where p is the momentum and m is the mass.

The woman has a mass of 55 kilograms and a momentum of 200 kilogram meters per second.

p= 200 \ kgm/s\\m=55 \ kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

v=\frac{200 \ kg m/s}{55 \ kg}

Divide. Note that the kilograms, or kg, will cancel each other out.

v=\frac{200 \ m/s}{55}

v= 3.63636364 \ m/s

The woman's velocity is 3.63636364 meters per second.

What is it that lives if it is fed, and dies if you give it a drink?
Anna71 [15]

Fire is it that lives if it is fed, and dies if you give it a drink.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Fire is very essential part of human life. It is used for cooking food and for other important activities. Without fire we cannot not survive. Something or the other should be heated before consumption and this can be achieved only with fir. It is also used in the darker places for viewing many things around us.

Thus, fire can survive if we give fuel or any wooden pieces and when water is poured on it it will turn off. Hence Fire is the one that survives when it is fed and dies when water is given as a drink to it.
