Light bending at a boundary is caused by differences in the speed of light in different materials. The greater the difference in

speed, the more the light bends. You looked at three materials in this activity—air, water, and glass. In which two materials is the speed of light the most similar? Explain your answer.

Answer:

How much does light bend? When light travels from air into water, it slows down, causing it to change direction slightly. This change of direction is called refraction. When light enters a more dense substance (higher refractive index), it 'bends' more towards the normal line.

A woman does 236 J of work
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

Step one:

Given data

work-done in dragging the trash= 236J

applied force= 18.9N

distance moved= 24.4m

Required

The angle of the applied force

Step two:

We know that work done is

WD= F * distance

<em>The work is the product of the horizontal component of the force and the distance. </em>

Horizontal force = 236 ÷ 24.4

= 9.67 N

Cos θ = Horizontal force ÷ Actual force

Cos θ = (236 ÷ 24.4) ÷ 18.9 = 236 ÷ 461.16

The angle is approximately 59˚

Which tool would a scientist use to find the mass of an object?
Luda [366]
The common method would be to use Balance, If you think about it, on other planets, the balance weights change by the same factor as the object you are measuring. Your mass measured with a balance would be the same on the moon as it is on Earth. Weight is a measuring of gravity's effect on something. Mass is another story, it's the amount of matter in an object. Move to another planet and its object's weight will change, however, its mass will remain the same.

Where does the heat come from that creates the motion for continental drift?
poizon [28]

Answer:

The heat doesn't come from any of those the heat comes from the Sun

Explanation:

But the thing that holds the heat from the Sun is the Earth's atmosphere.

When he gets hot the carbon dioxide holds in the heat but when the when oxygen it meets the heat in the air it makes it become cooler
