Light<span> refracts whenever it </span>travels<span> at an angle into a substance with a </span>different<span>refractive index (optical density). This change of direction is </span>caused<span> by a change in speed. For example, when </span>light travels<span> from air into water, it slows down, causing it to continue to travel at a </span>different<span> angle or direction.</span>
Answer:
B
Explanation:
the amplitude is the distance from the resting point to the crest/trough.
Answer:
The polar coordinate of
is
.
Explanation:
Given a point in rectangular form, that is
, its polar form is defined by:
(1)
Where:
- Norm, measured in meters.
- Direction, measured in sexagesimal degrees.
The norm of the point is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:
(2)
And direction is calculated by following trigonometric relation:
(3)
If we know that
and
, then the components of coordinates in polar form is:


Since
and
, direction is located at 3rd Quadrant. Given that tangent function has a period of 180º, we find direction by using this formula:


The polar coordinate of
is
.
It will be 80 miles and it can be done only in 16 min
I do believe that the answer is D.
Hope this is right! Have a great day! :-)
