Answer:
Light refracts when its speed changes as it enters a new medium.
Explanation:
Bending of light wave while it entering a medium with different speed is called refraction of light. Light passing from a faster medium to the slower medium bends the light rays toward the normal to boundary between two media. The amount of the bending of light depends on refractive index of the two media which is described by the Snell's Law. The angle of incidence is not equal to angle of refraction. Rainbow is caused but this refraction phenomena. Also Refraction is used in magnifying glasses, prism and lenses
Answer
b. the number of atoms in each molecule.
Explanation:
Answer:
(a) 3.807 s
(b) 145.581 m
Explanation:
Let Δt = t2 - t1 be the time it takes from the moment when the motorcycle starts to accelerate until it catches up with the car. We know that before the acceleration, both vehicles are travelling at a constant speed. So they would maintain a distance of 58 m prior to the acceleration.
The distance traveled by car after Δt (seconds) at
speed is

The distance traveled by the motorcycle after Δt (seconds) at
speed and acceleration of a = 8 m/s2 is


We know that the motorcycle catches up to the car after Δt, so it must have covered the distance that the car travels, plus their initial distance:





(b)


Answer:
Friction
Explanation:
Friction is a force that slows down moving objects. If you roll a ball across a shaggy rug, you can see that there are lumps and bumps in the rug that make the ball slow down. The rubbing, or friction, between the ball and the rug is what makes the ball stop rolling. External Force is required.
