What causes dispersion of light?​

Physics
1 answer:
AysviL [449]3 years ago
7 0
Dispersion occurs due to the different degrees of refraction experienced by different colours of light. Light of different colours may travel with the same speed in a vacuum, but they travel at different speeds in some refracting medium. The speed of violet light is relatively lower than that of red light.

If a ball that is 10 meters above the ground is thrown horizontally at 5.51 meters per second. a. how long will it take for the
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

a. t = 1.43 s

b. d = 7.88 m

Explanation:

a. The time of flight can be found using the following equation:

y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Where:

y_{f}: is the final height = -10 m

y_{0}: is the initial height = 0

v_{0_{y}}: is the initial speed in the vertical direction = 0

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

By solving the above equation for "t" we have:

t = \sqrt{\frac{2y_{f}}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*10 m}{9.81 m/s^{2}}} = 1.43 s

Hence, the ball will hit the ground in 1.43 s.

b. The distance in the horizontal direction can be found as follows:

x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

Where:

x₀: is the initial position in the horizontal direction = 0

a: is the acceleration in the horizontal direction = 0 (it is moving at constant speed)

x_{f} = 5.51 m/s*1.43 s = 7.88 m

Therefore, the ball will travel 7.88 m before it hits the ground.

I hope it helps you!

An aircraft has a liftoff speed of 33 m/s. What is the minimum constant acceleration an
JulsSmile [24]

Answer: The minimum acceleration for the air plane is 2.269m/s2.

Explanation: To solve such problem the equation of motion are applicable.

The initial velocity is 0 since the airplane was initially standing. We are going to use this equation

V^2=U^2+2as

33^2=0+2a (240)

a= 2.269m/s2
