Light waves do not need a medium in which to travel but sound waves do. Explain that unlike sound, light waves travel fastest through a vacuum and air, and slower through other materials such as glass or water.

V = final velocity
u = initial velocity
a = acceleration
s = displacement
Take downward direction as positive.
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
v^2 = 0.8^2 + 2(1.6)(5.5)
v^2 = 18.24
v = 4.27 m/s

Which is true about a concave mirror? Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are dispersed but will be perceived as
Reil [10]

Answer:

'Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are sent through a point on the near side of the mirror'.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, find the complete question in the comment section.

Concave mirrors is an example of a curved mirror. The outer surface of a concave mirror is always coated. On the concave mirror, we have what is called the central axis or principal axis which is a line cutting through the center of the mirror. The points located on this axis are the Pole, the principal focus and the centre of curvature. <em>The focus point is close to the curved  mirror than the centre of curvature.</em>

<em></em>

During the formation of images, one of the incident rays (rays striking the plane surface) coming from the object and parallel to the principal axis, converges at the focus point after reflection because all incident rays striking the surface are meant to reflect out. <em>All incident light striking the surface all converges at a point on the central axis known as the focus.</em>

Based on the explanation above, it can be concluded that 'Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are sent through a point on the near side of the mirror'.

Convert 68852 millijoules into Calories. (Write your answer in the decimal form. Do not include units in your answer).
alex41 [277]

Answer: 68852 millijoules = 16.46 calories

Explanation:

Given;

Convert 68852 millijoules to calories.

1 calorie = 4.184J = 4184millijoules

Therefore,

1 millijoule = 1/4184 calories

68852 millijoule = 68852 × 1/4184 calories

= 16.46 calories
