Why is a spectrum of colors produced when white light passes through a prism?

Physics

Mkey [24]2 years ago
4 0

Explanation: White light is all colors of light in one, so when white light passes through a prism, the light gets refracted and breaks apart into all of the colors on the visible light spectrum.

Answer:

t = 1.75

t = 0.04

Explanation:

a)

For part 1 we want to use a kenamatic equation with constant acceleration:

X = 1/2*a*t^2

isolate time

t = sqrt(2X / a)

Plugin known variables. Acceleration is the force of gravity which is 9.8 m/s^2

t = sqrt(2*15m / 9.8m/s^2)

t = 1.75 s

b)

The speed of sound travels at a constant speed therefore we don't need acceleration and can use the equation:

v = d / t

isolate time

t = d / v

plug in known variables

t = 15m / 340m/s

t = 0.04 s

What is the difference in
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

0.438kg/ms-¹

Explanation:

Momentum, denoted by p, can be calculated by using the formula;

p = mv

Where;

m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

Momentum (p) of bird = 0.216 kg × 5.87 m/s = 1.268kg/ms-¹

Momentum (p) of crawling baby = 7.29 kg kg × 0.234 m/s = 1.706kg/ms-¹

Having calculated the momentum of the bird to be 1.268kg/ms-¹, and the momentum of the baby to be 1.706kg/ms-¹, the difference in momentum between the flying bird and the crawling baby is:

{1.706kg/ms-¹ - 1.268kg/ms-¹} = 0.438kg/ms-¹
