Answer:Waves shape the earths surface because they change the form of the coastal land form, meaning that when a wave is formed and moves they are also moving sand and rocks which can change the shape of the surface
Explanation:
Potassium is in the most reactive group of elements, the alkali metals, but it's not the most reactive metal within the group. The alkali metals, Group 1A, are the most reactive metals because they have one valence or outer electron. They lose this electron very easily, forming ions with a charge of +1.
Answer:
3 x 10^5 J
Explanation:
mass of substance, m = 1 g = 0.001 kg
Velocity of light, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s
According to the Einstein mass energy equivalence, the energy associated with the mass is given by
E = m c^2
E = 0.001 x 3 x 10^8
E = 3 x 10^5 J
Refractor, It's a refractor-esque telescope
Answer:
t = 2.13 10-10 s
, d = 6.39 cm
Explanation:
For this exercise we use the definition of refractive index
n = c / v
Where n is the refraction index, c the speed of light and v the speed in the material medium.
The refractive indices of ice and crown glass are 1.13 and 1.52, respectively, therefore the speed of the beam in the material medium is
v = c / n
As the beam strikes perpendicularly, the beam path is equal to the distance of the leaves, there is no refraction, so we can use the uniform motion relationships
v = d / t
t = d / v
t = d n / c
Let's look for the times on each sheet
Ice
t₁ = 1.4 10⁻² 1.31 / 3 10⁸
t₁ = 0.6113 10⁻¹⁰ s
Crown glass (BK7)
t₂ = 3.0 10⁻² 1.52 / 3.0 10⁸
t₂ = 1.52 10⁻¹⁰ s
Time is a scalar therefore it is additive
t = t₁ + t₂
t = (0.6113 + 1.52) 10⁻¹⁰
t = 2.13 10-10 s
The distance traveled by this time in a vacuum would be
d = c t
d = 3 10⁸ 2.13 10⁻¹⁰
d = 6.39 10⁻² m
d = 6.39 cm
