Diamond is the material in which light ray entering from air slows down more.

<span>Diamond slowdown light more than Quartz , because diamonds have a greater index of refraction. Light will bend when its move from one medium to another. The Index of Refraction of Material is found by comparing the speed of light in their respective mediums.</span>

Determine the direction in which an electrical signal is carried in a typical multipolar neuron
choli [55]
The direction in which an electrical signal is carried in a typical multi-polar neuron is:
Dendrites, cell body, axon
Specialized projection of neurons are dendrites and axon. The central part of neuron is cell body. So, the electrical signal is carried in a direction that first dendrites carried the signal then it goes towards cell body and then to axon.

You are watching a magic show. For one trick the magician rolls a ball down a hill. Suddenly the ball stops moving down the hill
poizon [28]
The forces (what causes the ball to accelerate) are gravity, friction, and the normal force. In this case, gravity is a downward force caused by the gigantic mass of the Earth and the mass of the ball. Keep in mind that a force is acceleration. Acceleration is a change in velocity. The ball speeds up. Than it stops speeding up at a certain point where the frictional force (along with air friction) equals the parallel component of gravity. 




Newton's Second Law States- The greater mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object.

What happens when multiple forces act upon an object?
Bogdan [553]
The object will move if the forces are unbalanced.

Newtons second tells you that when a net force (the unbalanced force) is applied to and object it will produce an acceleration (movement) in direct proportion to the force and in inverse proportion to the mass of the object.

What happens to the boiling point of water as you climb higher up a mountain?
Maksim231197 [3]
The higher the pressure, the higher boiling point of water. At lower the pressure, the boiling point of water comes down. So, the lower pressure inreases the boiling resulting more evaporation. As we go higher in altitude, the atmospheric pressure decreases. This results in decreasing the boiling point at higher altitude and increase in boiling of water. In fact, at the sea level ,the the sea water boils at 100 degree C where atmospheric pressre is normal. However , the boiling takes place at a lower temperature at the top of a mountain due to low pressure. In other words the boling is faster at the top of a mountain than that at its foot.

An object of mass 3 kg, moving with and sticks to an object of mass 2.00 kg with an initial velocity of 3.00 m/s. Find the final
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

1.8 m/s

Explanation:

momentum = mass × velocity

initial momentum = m1v1+m2v2

                             = 3×3 +2×0 = 9+0= 9 kg m/s

let combined velocity be V

HENCE  

final momentum = total mass × velocity

                            = (3+2) × V = 5V

According to law of conservation of momentum

final momentum = initial momentum

5V = 9

V =9/5

V = 1.8 m/s
