4 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

1) There are two main types of waves;

Mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves.

Mechanical waves usually require a medium for propagation, e.g sound, waves on a spiral spring, etc

Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium for propagation e.g microwaves, x-rays etc

2) The phenomenon is known as refraction. Refraction occurs at the boundary between two media because of the change in the speed of a wave as it moves from one medium to another.

Which of these was a characteristic of the Rutherford model of the atom, but not the Thomson model? (2 points)
tia_tia [17]
Thomsons model( commonly the plum pudding model) - can also be described by a watermelon cut horizontally. The red of the water melon is a positively charged cloud with the seeds representing the negatively charged electrons sprinkled through out the positive cloud. 

Rutherford had a model with a dense positively charged nucleus at the center. This nucleus was encircled by negatively charged atoms.

Answer: <span>b. positive charge concentrated at the center of the atom</span>

A light ray is incident on a plane surface separating two transparent media of refractive indices of 1.65 and 1.35. If the incid
Vesna [10]

Explanation:

Given

Refractive Index (n_1)=1.65

n_2=1.35

angle of incident=35 ^{\circ}

Light originates in the medium of higher refractive index

Let \theta _1 and \theta _2be the incident and refraction angles respectively  thus according to snell's law

n_1sin\theta _1=n_2sin\theta _2

1.65\times sin35=1.35\times sin\theta _2

sin\theta _2=0.701

\theta _2=44.507^{\circ}

(b)Ray originates from lighter medium

1.35\times sin35=1.65\times sin\theta _2'

sin\theta _2'=0.469

\theta _2'=27.96\approx 28^{\circ}

What is the temperature increase of 4.0 kg of water when heated by an 800-W immersion heater for 10 min? (cw = 4 186 J/kg⋅°C)
Llana [10]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

mass of water = 4 Kg

Water is heated to = 800 W

time of immersion = 10 min

                              = 10 x 60 = 600 s

using equation of specific heat  

Q = m S ΔT

S is the specific heat capacity of water which is equal to 4182 J/kg°C.

and another formula of heat

Q = Pt

now,

P t =  m S ΔT

800 x 600  = 4 x 4182 x ΔT

ΔT = 29° C

temperature increased is equal to ΔT = 29° C

Hence, the correct answer is option C
