Answer:

refraction

Explanation:

When waves, including light, pass through two media with different densities, the waves bend at the transition between the two media due to differences in speed and wavelength. Convex lenses bend (refract) light and  concentrate it at one point called the focal point.

hope this helps

A vertical spring gun is used to launch balls into the air. If the spring is compressed by 4.9 cm, the ball of mass 5.5 g is lau
AleksandrR [38]

We know, by conservation of energy :

\dfrac{kx^2}{2}=mgh

Therefore,

\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}

Putting given values, we get :

\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}\\\\\dfrac{4.9^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{50.2}{2\times 50.2}\\\\x_2^2=2\times 4.9^2\\\\x_2 = 4.9\times \sqrt{2}\\\\x_2=6.93\ cm

Therefore, the spring be compressed to 6.93 cm to send the ball twice as high.

Hence, this is the required solution.
