What occurs when light bends while passing from one medium to another?

Physics
1 answer:
Levart [38]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:So the answer is B

Explanation: When the light rays either bend or change their direction while passing from one medium to another it is called refraction of light. The refraction of light takes place when light travels from air into glass, from glass into air, from air into water or from water into air.

A child sleds down a hill with an acceleration of 2.94 m/s2. If her initial speed is 0.0 m/s and her final speed is 17.5 m/s, ho
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

Explanation:

Given that the child accelerates uniformly and that both initial (v_{o}) and final speeds (v_{f}), measured in meters per second, and acceleration (a), measured in meters per square second, are known, we proceed to use the following kinematic equation to determine the time taken to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom (t), measured in seconds, is:

t = \frac{v_{f}-v_{o}}{a} (1)

If we know that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{f} = 17.5\,\frac{m}{s} and a = 2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, then the time taken is:

t = \frac{17.5\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s} }{2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }

t = 5.952\,s

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

A helicopter is ascending vertically. a passenger accidentally drops her wallet out the sides of the helicopter when it is 160 m
Advocard [28]

Answer:

(E)56.0 m/s

Explanation:

Height =h=-160 m

Because the wallet moving in downward direction

Time=t=7 s

Final speed of wallet=v=0

We have to find the speed of helicopter ascending  at the moment when the passenger let go of the wallet.

v^2-u^2=2gh

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Substitute the values

0-u^2=2(-160)\times 9.8

u^2=3136

u=\sqrt{3136}=56m/s

Option (E) is true

The density of the nugget is 19 g/cm^3 and is made of gold

Explanation:

The density of an object can be calculated as

d=\frac{m}{V}

where

d is the density

m is the mass

V is the volume of the object

We have to note that density of an object actually depends on the material the object is made of (therefore, two objects made of the same material can have different mass and different volume, but they have same density).

For the nugget in this problem, we have:

mass: m = 38 g

volume: V=2 cm^3

So, its density is

d=\frac{38}{2}=19 g/cm^3

And by looking at the table, we see that this value corresponds approximately to the density of gold, so the nugget is made of gold.

A reaction that releases heat is:<br> endothermic<br> exothermic<br> none of the above
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Exothermic reaction

Explanation:

  • A reaction that releases heat is known as an exothermic reaction.
  • Reactions can be classified as either exothermic or endothermic depending on whether they release or absorb heat from the surrounding.
  • A reaction that absorbs or gains heat from the surrounding is known as endothermic reaction.
  • On the other hand, if a reaction releases heat to the surrounding is known as exothermic reaction.
  • An exothermic reactions results to an increase in temperature of a solution while an endothermic reaction results to a decrease in the temperature of a solution.

А A pool of water of refractive index
babymother [125]

Answer:

Apparent depth = 45 cm

Explanation:

The refractive index of water in a pool, n = 4/3

Real depth, d = 60 cm

We need to find its apparent  depth when viewed vertically through  air.​ The ratio of real depth to the apparent depth is equal to the refractive index of the material. Let the apparent depth is d'. So,

n=\dfrac{d}{d'}\\\\d'=\dfrac{d}{n}\\\\d'=\dfrac{60}{\dfrac{4}{3}}\\\\d'=45\ cm

So, the apparent depth is 45 cm.
