Explain what parallel medium boundaries do to the path of the wave after it travels through both boundaries. (air and water)
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The boundaries cause the waves to change direction an effect called <u>refraction.</u>

Explanation:

When a wave crosses a boundary between different materials, the speed of the wave and its wavelength changes.When passing from air to water the two properties (speed and wavelength) decreases, and the wave is observed to change direction as it crosses the boundary between the two material.The bending of the wave is called refraction.

If an unknown element has a mass of 17 and contains 6 neutrons, how many protons does it have ?
lbvjy [14]

The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons within an atom and since we know that the unknown element has 6 neutrons, we can simply subtract the number of neutrons from the mass number to get the number of protons.

17 - 6 = 11

There are 11 protons in this unknown element.


Extra:

The number of protons (+) and electrons (-) are equal in a neutral atom so since you know that there are 11 protons you also know that there are 11 electrons. On the periodic table, the element with 11 electrons is Na or Sodium.


Hope this helps! :)

Two automobiles are 150 kilometers apart and traveling toward each other. One automobile
Vladimir79 [104]
Their relative speed is the sum of 60 and 40 or 100km/hr. They will travel the 150km in 1.5 hrs. When two object approach each other, the closing speed is just the sum of the speeds, therefore, the closing speed is your case is 100kph. So they will meet in 1.5 hours.
