What causes light to bend when it moves from one transport medium to another

Physics
1 answer:
faltersainse [42]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another is called refraction. The angle and wavelength at which the light enters a substance and the density of that substance determine how much the light is refracted. The bending occurs because light travels more slowly in a denser medium.

hope this helped :))

JulsSmile [24]
Choice - B is the correct one.

At the top of the arc, at one end of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any higher, so the potential energy is maximum
-- it stops moving for an instant, so the kinetic energy is zero

At the bottom of the arc, in the center of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any lower, so the potential energy is minimum
-- it's not going to move any faster, so the kinetic energy is maximum

In one of the original Doppler experiments, a tuba was played at a frequency of 64.0 Hz on a moving flat train car, and a second
wolverine [178]

Answer:

 f_{beat} = 1.64\ Hz

Explanation:

given,

frequency of tuba.f = 64 Hz

Speed of train approaching, v = 8.50 m/s

beat frequency = ?

using Doppler's effect formula

 f' = f(\dfrac{v}{v-v_s})

v_s is the velocity of the source

v is the speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

now,

 f' = 64\times (\dfrac{340}{340 - 8.50})

       f' = 65.64 Hz

now, beat frequency is equal to

 f_{beat} = f' - f

 f_{beat} = 65.64 - 64

 f_{beat} = 1.64\ Hz

hence, beat frequency is equal to 1.64 Hz
