Answer:
A. Materials with a low index of refraction cause light to refract very little.
Answer:
Explanation:
1 )
We shall apply conservation of momentum law to solve the problem.
mv = ( M +m) V , m and M are masses of small and large object , v is the velocity of small object before collision and V is the velocity of both the objects together after collision .
.5 x .2 = (1.5 + .5)V
V = .05 m /s
2 ) We shall use formula for velocity of object after elastic collision as follows
v₁ = 
m₁ and m₂ are masses of first and second object u₁ and u₂ are their initial velocity and v₁ and v₂ are their final velocity.
Putting the values
= 
= - .66 m /s
Since the sign is negative so it will be in opposite direction .
<u>Answer </u>
A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water
<u>Explanation</u>
James Joule allowed some water to fall from a height of 1 foot. the water would turn a paddle wheel at the bottom causing a temperature of water to raise.
The height form which the water fell, mass and the temperature of water was measured and used to calculate mechanical equivalent of heat.
From the choices given the best answer is A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water.
<u>ANSWER</u>
metabolism
I really hope this helps i am in middle school and this must be a high school question.
