What often happens to light when it travels from one medium to another
quester [9]

Answer:

Although the speed changes and wavelength changes, the frequency of the light will be constant. The frequency, wavelength, and speed are related by: The change in speed that occurs when light passes from one medium to another is responsible for the bending of light, or refraction, that takes place at an interface.

A swan on a lake gets airborne by flapping its wings and running on top of the water. If the swan must reach a velocity of 6.40
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

53.895 m.

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion,

v² = u² + 2as .............. Equation 1

Where v = final velocity of the swan, u = initial velocity of the swan, a = acceleration of the swan, s = distance covered by the swan.

make s the subject of the equation,

s = (v² - u²)/2a----------- Equation 2

Given: v = 6.4 m/s, u = 0 m/s ( from rest)  a = 0.380 m/s².

Substitute into equation 2

s = (6.4²-0²)/(2×0.380)

s = 40.96/0.76

s = 53.895 m.

Hence the swan will travel 53.895 m before becoming airborne.

The atomic mass of an element is defined as the weighted average mass of that element’s
marishachu [46]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Atomic mass (Also called Atomic Weight, although this denomination is incorrect, since the mass is property of the body and the weight depends on the gravity) Mass of an atom corresponding to a certain chemical element). The uma (u) is usually used as a unit of measure. Where u.m.a are acronyms that mean "unit of atomic mass". This unit is also usually called Dalton (Da) in honor of the English chemist John Dalton.

It is equivalent to one twelfth of the mass of the nucleus of the most abundant isotope of carbon, carbon-12. It corresponds roughly to the mass of a proton (or a hydrogen atom). It is abbreviated as "uma", although it can also be found by its English acronym "amu" (Atomic Mass Unit). However, the recommended symbol is simply "u".

<u> The atomic masses of the chemical elements are usually calculated with the weighted average of the masses of the different isotopes of each element taking into account the relative abundance of each of them</u>, which explains the non-correspondence between the atomic mass in umas, of an element, and the number of nucleons that harbors the nucleus of its most common isotope.
