Which medium caused the most bending of light as it passed through?

Physics
1 answer:
babunello [35]3 years ago
4 0
I wasn't there observing the experiment while you and your class
performed it, so I don't really know how it was set up, or what
happened. 

But I can tell you this:  Light doesn't bend while passing through
any medium.  It only bends at the boundary where one medium
meets a different one.

What is the frequency of radiation whose wavelength is 2.40 x 10-5 cm?
S_A_V [24]
<span>To begin, the formula for finding frequency when wavelength is known is "f = c / w" when c is the constant velocity (3 * 10^8 m/s). To convert the wavelength into a common form (m/s), it will have to be multiplied by 10^-2. This leaves the equation as "f = 3.0 * 10^8 / (2.4 * 10^-5 * 10^-2), or 2.4 * 10^-7. This gives 1.25 * 10^15 m/s as the frequency.</span>

. An object whose mass is 375 lb falls freely under the influence of gravity from an initial elevation of 253 ft above the surfa
lozanna [386]

Answer:

(a) Vf = 128 ft/s

(b) K.E = 122.8 Btu

Explanation:

(a)

In order to find the velocity of the object just before striking the surface of earth or the final velocity, we use 3rd equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = 32.2 ft/s²

h = height = 253 ft

Vf = Final Velocity = ?

Vi = Initial Velocity = 10 ft/s

Therefore,

(2)(32.2 ft/s²)(253 ft) = Vf² - (10 ft/s)²

16293.2 ft²/s² + 100 ft²/s² = Vf²

Vf = √(16393.2 ft²/s²)

<u>Vf = 128 ft/s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

The kinetic energy of the object before it hits the surface of earth is given by:

K.E = (0.5)(m)(Vf)²

where,

m = mass of object = 375 lb

K.E = Kinetic energy of object before it strikes the surface of earth = ?

Therefore,

K.E = (0.5)(375 lb)(128 ft/s)²

K.E = 3073725 lb.ft²/s²

Now, converting this to Btu:

K.E = (3073725 lb.ft²/s²)(1 Btu/25037 lb.ft²/s²)

<u>K.E = 122.8 Btu</u>

Astronomers have found water on mars.
vodomira [7]

The thin atmosphere of Mars is thought to be due to the planet's lack of a magnetic field, which has allowed the Solar wind to blow away much of the gas the planet once had. Venus, despite still having a thick atmosphere of CO2, surprisingly has a similar problem
