Different colors of light travel at greatly different speeds, even in the same medium.

Physics
1 answer:
viktelen [127]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Different colors of light travel at greatly different speeds even in the same medium. This is what causes the dispersion of light through a prism.

  • In a vacuum, the speed of light is the same
  • For other mediums, the speed of light depends on the properties of that medium.
  • Light propagation depends on the medium it passes through because the photons of light interacts with the medium.
  • The frequency of light remains the same in all medium but the speed and wavelength depends on the medium.

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

194 kg m²

Explanation:

Use parallel axis theorem:

I = I₀ + mr²

I = 25 kg m² + (1 kg) ((5 m)² + (12 m)²)

I = 25 kg m² + 169 kg m²

I = 194 kg m²

Which of the following statements is FALSE about collisions? (Consider Newton's Laws an the Conservation of Momentum.)
pantera1 [17]

<u>The following statements are false about collisions: </u>

  • The velocity change of two respective objects involved in a collision will always be equal.
  • Total momentum is always conserved between any two objects involved in a collision.

Answer: Option B, and D

<u>Explanation: </u>

In any collisions, equal amount of net force will be acted upon the colliding objects due to the third law of Newton, irrespective of the significance difference in mass of the objects. Similarly, they can also have different acceleration values during collision of two objects if the masses are identical.

But the statements regarding the equal change in velocity of two objects respectively involved in collision always is false, as the conservation of momentum is applicable for isolated system only. So it is true for only isolated system and not in all the systems.

The same reason goes for falsifying the fourth statement which states that total momentum is always conserved between two objects involved in a collision as this statement is only true for isolated system where the conservation of momentum can be applied. Thus the second and fourth statement is false regarding collision.

Why does a vibraing simple pendulum not produce any sound
pashok25 [27]
<span>Human ear can hear  the lowest frequency about 20 Hz, this is 20 vibrations per second. Vibrations of pendulum are very small and frequency is less than 20 Hz, so we can't hear it.</span>
