Explain why the speed of light is lower than
3.0 × 108 m/s as it goes through different media.
--------------------
the molecules are forced to vibrate. that vib causes re emission. speed of emiited waves less than in vac.
Answer:
B. It begins to rotate counterclockwise
Explanation:
It can happen that the merry-go-round remains at rest in the case when the person is standing on the axle of the merry go round whose axis is fixed to some rigid support, but here the person is standing at the center of the merry-go-round not at the axle hence the according to the conservation of angular momentum. Angular momentum is given as:

for the conservation of momentum

where:
moment of inertia of the merry-go-round
angular velocity of the merry-go-round
moment of inertia of the bicycle wheel
angular velocity of the wheel
As the person tries to stop the wheel which is rotating then the person feels an opposing force which tries to moves the whole system in its direction.
<h2>Apartment Explosion Reported </h2>
The apartment’s explosion, reportedly caused by a gas leak, produced a violent release of gas and heat. The heat increased the temperature of the air in the room, which means an increase in the air's molecular kinetic energy.
When heat is provided then temperature increases and the molecules of substances move rapidly by increase of kinetic energy (K.E) temperature increases. It is understood that heat increases temperature.
Answer:
a)
b)
Explanation:
a)
The width of the central bright in this diffraction pattern is given by:
when m is a natural number.
here:
- m is 1 (to find the central bright fringe)
- D is the distance from the slit to the screen
- a is the slit wide
- λ is the wavelength
So we have:
b)
Now, if we do m=2 we can find the distance to the second minima.

Now we need to subtract these distance, to get the width of the first bright fringe :
I hope it heps you!
