Light rays bend as they pass from air into

Physics
1 answer:
nirvana33 [79]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Refraction is the bending of light when it moves from one medium to another.

In the situation described:

  • The average speed of light changes when it goes to another medium. The speed of light in water is less than in air.
  • When velocity/speed changes, the index of refraction changes as well. Water's index is greater than in air.
  • Since, speed changes, wavelength changes too.
  • Only the frequency remains the same. The rates of vibration stays the same.

Correct choice is #4.

Sam is observing the velocity of a car at different times. After two hours, the velocity of the car is 50 km/h. After six hours,
Xelga [282]
A )
t 1 = 2 h,  t 2 = 6 h
Δ t = t 2 - t 1 = 6 - 2 = 4 h
54 = 50 + a Δ t
54 = 50 + 4 a
4 a = 54 - 4
4 a = 4
a = 4 : 4
a = 1 km/h²
v o = 48 km/h
An equation that can be used to describe the velocity of the car at the different times is:
v = 48 + t
B ) The graph is in the attachment.

A small sandbag is dropped from rest from a hovering hot-air balloon. (assume the positive direction is upward.) (a) after 1.5 s
marishachu [46]

solution:

We know v0 = 0, a = 9.8, t = 4.0. We need to solve for v

so,

we use the equation:

v = v0 + at

v = 0 + 9.8*4.0

v = 39.2 m/s

Now we just need to solve for d, so we use the equation:

d = v0t + 1/2*a*t^2

d = 0*4.0 + 1/2*9.8*4.0^2

d = 78.4 m

1. A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a cliff with an initial speed of 8 m/s and lands 16 m from the base of
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Height of cliff = S = 20 m (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity = 8 m/s

Distance s = 16 m

Starting acceleration (a) = 0

Computation:

s = ut + 1/2a(t)²

16 = 8t

t = 2 sec

Height of cliff = S

Gravitational acceleration = 10 m/s

S = 1/2a(t)²

S = 1/2(10)(2)²

Height of cliff = S = 20 m (Approx)

What is electrons ? explain it function<br>​
Neko [114]

Answer:

The electron is a subatomic particle, symbol e⁻ or β⁻ , whose electric charge is negative one elementary charge. Electrons belong to the first generation of the lepton particle family, and are generally thought to be elementary particles because they have no known components or substructure

Explanation:

functions of electrons

and electrons being the negatively charged particles of atom. Together, all of the electrons of an atom create a negative charge that balances the positive charge of the protons in the atomic nucleus
