<h3><u>Answer and explanation;</u></h3>
Reflection;
- Bounces back from an opaque material
- Bounces back from the boundary of two mediums
- Seen in mirrors
Refraction;
- Passes through a prism
- Moves from one medium to another
- Seen in lenses
Reflection refers to the bouncing of waves such as light waves. It involves a change in direction of waves when they bounce off a barrier.
Refraction is the bending of waves when they move from one medium to another. It involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another.
Acceleration = change in velocity/time
= 40/5
=8m/s^2
Answer: height = 3.98m
Explanation: by placing the watermelon at a height above the ground, it has a potential energy of the formulae
p = mgh
p = potential energy = 4.61kJ = 4610J
m = mass of watermelon = 118 kg
g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²
4610 = 118 * 9.8 * h
h = 4610/ 118 * 9.8
h = 4610/ 1156.4
h = 3.98m
Acceleration(a) is the change in velocity(Δv) over the change in time(Δt). so just divide your velocity and time.
