Light doesn't bend as it passes through a (homogeneous) medium. It only bends at the spot where it crosses a boundary between one medium and another one. The amount of bend depends on what BOTH of them are, and you haven't told us ANY of them.
An object in motion will continue to move in the same direction and with the same speed unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. states that forces occur as equal and opposite pairs. The strength of the force is related to the mass of the objects and the distance between them.
Answer:
An object at rest does not move and an object in motion does not change its velocity, unless an external force acts upon it
Explanation:
This statement is also known as Newton's first law, or law of inertia.
It states that the state of motion of an object can be changed only if there is an external force (different from zero) acting on it: therefore
- If an object is at rest, it will remain at rest if there is no force acting on it
- If an object is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity if there is no force acting on it
This phenomenon can be also understood by looking at Newton's second law:
F = ma
where
F is the net force on an object
m is the mass
a is the acceleration
If the net force is zero, F = 0, the acceleration of the object is also zero, a = 0: therefore, the velocity of the object does not change, and it will continue moving at the same velocity (which can be zero, if the object was at rest).

Answer:
R = 710.7N
L = 67.689 N
During gravity fall L = R = 0 N
Explanation:
So the acceleration that the elevator is acting on the woman (and the package) in order to result in a net acceleration of 0.15g is
g + 0.15g = 1.15g
The force R that the elevator exerts on her feet would be product of acceleration and total mass (Newton's 2nd law):
a(m + M) = 1.15g(57 + 6) = 1.15*9.81*63 = 710.7N
The force L that she exerts on the package would be:
am = 1.15g *6 = 1.15*9.81*6 = 67.689N
When the system is falling, all have a net acceleration of g. So the acceleration that the elevator exerts on the woman (and the package) is 0, and so are the forces L and R.
