Which statement best explains the speed of light waves as they travel from gas to solid?

Physics
1 answer:
igomit [66]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Light waves slow down as they travel from gas to solid.

Explanation:

The speed of light is often quoted with reference to a vacuum. Light travels fastest in a vacuum and in a gas.

When light travels through other media such as solids or liquids, the speed of light is decreased due to absorption and scattering of photons by molecules as well as remissions.

Hence the speed of light decreases from gas to solid.

How did early chemists determine which substances were elements
Jlenok [28]
Chemistry deals with the study of elements-- their properties, chemical reactions and their compounds. This science includes the study of how these elements or compounds are formed. The history of chemistry is divided to 4 periods. 
Black Magic, Alchemy, Traditional Chemistry and Modern Chemistry comprised these periods.
How did the early chemists determine which of the substances are elements? Long time ago, chemists knew which substances could not be broken down and that mixtures are broken down through chemical means. Through the said process, they were able to identify which are elements from the substances they have tested.

Si se aplic una fuerza de 150N en un área de de 0.4m2¿cual será la preciosa ejercida?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

P = 375 Pa

Explanation:

The question says that,"If a force of 150N was applied in an area of ​​0.4m², what will be the precious exerted?"

We have,

Force, F = 150 N

Area, A = ​​0.4m²

We need to find the pressure exerted. We know that,

Pressure = forece/area

So,

P=\dfrac{150\ N}{0.4\ m^2}\\\\P=375\ Pa

So, the required pressure is equal to 375 pa.

An electric car has a battery that can hold 16 kwh of energy. if the battery is designed to operate at 340 v, how many coulombs
Zanzabum

charge needed= 169412 C

Explanation:

energy stored in the battery= 16 KWh= 16 (1000 W)(3600 s)= 5.76 x 10⁷ J

Energy stored is given by U= q V

q= charge

V= voltage= 340 V

so 5.76 x 10⁷ = q (340)

q= 169412 C
