Answer:

After refraction at two parallel faces of a glass slab, a ray of light emerges in a direction parallel to the direction of incidence of white light on the slab. As rays of all colours emerge in the same direction (of incidence of white light), hence there is no dispersion, but only lateral displacement.

What 2 kinds of substances does convection occur ?

ch4aika [34]

Liquids and Gases

Explanation:

Convection is a form of heat transfer that is predominant in liquids and gaseous substances. This form of heat transfer is driven by density differences between gases and liquids.

Convection involves the actual movement of the particles of a medium.
Boiling of food is clinical example of convection in liquids. Hot part of the food in contact with the heat source becomes less dense and more buoyant. They rise to the top of the medium and are replace by the denser and colder part of the food.
Land and sea breeze is an example of convection in gases. The land warms the air around it during the day. It is hotter and less dense. The air mass moves to replace the ones on the sea where the air is relatively cold due to high specific heat capacity of water.
The reverse process occurs at night.

A car and a truck start from rest at the same instant, with the car initially at some distance behind the truck. The truck has a

Svet_ta [14]

A) The car overtakes the truck after 7.56 s

B) Initial distance between car and truck: 37.1 m

C) Speed of the truck: 15.9 m/s, speed of the car: 25.7 m/s

D) See graph in attachment

Explanation:

The truck starts from rest and has a constant acceleration, so its position at time t can be written as

$x_t(t)=d+\frac{1}{2}a_tt^2$

where

d is the initial distance between the truck and the car (the truck starts some distance ahead of the car)

$a_t=2.10 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the truck

The car position instead it is given by the equation

$x_c(t)=\frac{1}{2}a_ct^2$

where

$a_c=3.40 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the car

The car overtakes the truck when the truck has moved 60.0 m, so when

$x_t(t') = d + 60$

Therefore, solving the equation, we find the time t when this occurs:

$d+\frac{1}{2}a_t t'^2 = d+60\\\frac{1}{2}a_tt'^2=60\\t'=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot 60}{a_t}}=\sqrt{\frac{120}{2.1}}=7.56 s$

In order to find the initial distance between the car and the truck (d), we have to calculate first the distance covered by the car during these 7.56 s. It is given by:

$x_c(t')=\frac{1}{2}a_c t'^2=\frac{1}{2}(3.40)(7.56)^2=97.2 m$

This means that after 7.56 s, when the car reaches the truck, the car has covered 97.2 m while the truck has covered 60 m. However, their positions are now equal, so we can write:

$x_c(t')=x_t(t')$

And by solving the equation, we find the value of d, the initial distance between car and truck:

$\frac{1}{2}a_c t'^2 = d + \frac{1}{2}a_t t'^2\\d=\frac{1}{2}(a_c-a_t)t'^2 = \frac{1}{2}(3.40-2.10)(7.56)^2=37.1 m$

In order to find the speed of each vehicle, we use the following suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the truck, we have:

u = 0

$a_t = 2.10 m/s^2$

So its speed after t = 7.56 s is

$v_t = 0+(2.10)(7.56)=15.9 m/s$

For the car, we have

u = 0

$a_c=3.40 m/s^2$

So its speed after t = 7.56 s is

$v_c=0+(3.40)(7.56)=25.7 m/s$

Find the graph required in attachment.

On the x-axis, it is represented the time in seconds. On the y-axis, it is represented the position in meters.

Both curves are in the shape of a parabola since the motion of both vehicles is an accelerated motion.

The curve that starts at -37.1 m is the curve representing the car: in fact, the car starts behind the truck by 37.1 m. The curve that starts from x = 0, t= 0 is that of the truck.

The two curves meets when t = 7.56 s: at that time, the two vehicles have reached the same position, and we see that occurs when x = 60 m, which means that this happens when the truck has covered 60 meters.
