Hello!

I believe this is called refraction. Reflection is when light will bounce off in the same in angle in the opposite direction. I believe refraction is when the light will bend and go off at a different angle.

The answer is C) refraction.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The answer is C.) refraction

Explanation:

Refraction is the change in direction and speed that a wave experiences when passing from one medium to another with a different refractive index. When the light passes from one transparent medium to another there is a change in its direction due to the different speed of propagation that the light has in the different material media.

Is the speed of the object during segment c greater than, equal to, or less than its speed during segment e?
Dima020 [189]
This is a kinematic problem that asks us to determine the velocity of an object in a time frame given the plot of time in the x-axis and distance,x, in the y-axis. The figure that shows the behavior of the object is shown in the diagram. Segment C is going down which means the object is decelerating indicated by the negative slope. E on the other hand also has a negative slope as the line is also going down but less steep than that of c. slope is equal to change in y over the change in x. So given a definite change in y, a shorter change in x would make a greater slope, hence, becoming steeper. The speed then is C is higher than the speed in E.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Forces are pushes or pulls. They can be balanced or unbalanced. If unbalanced they can change the shape of objects and change the way they are moving (speed-wise)

A 1200 kg car carrying four 80 kg people travels over a rough "washboard" dirt road with corrugations 4.0 m apart which causes t
uysha [10]

Answer:

ΔX = 0.0483 m

Explanation:

Let's analyze the problem, the car oscillates in the direction y and advances with constant speed in the direction x

The car can be described with a spring mass system that is represented by the expression

     y = A cos (wt + φ)

The speed can be found by derivatives

     v_{y} = dy / dt

    v_{y}  = - A w sin (wt + φ

So that the amplitude is maximum without (wt + fi) = + -1

      v_{y}  = A w

X axis

Let's reduce to the SI system

     vₓ = 15 km / h (1000 m / 1 km) (1h / 3600s) = 4.17 m / s

As the car speed is constant

     vₓ = d / t

      t = d / v ₓ

      t = 4 / 4.17

      t = 0.96 s

This is the time between running two maximums, which is equivalent to a full period

     w = 2π f = 2π / T

     w = 2π / 0.96

     w = 6.545 rad / s

We have the angular velocity we can find the spring constant

     w² = k / m

    m = 1200 + 4 80

    m = 1520 m

     k = w² m

     k = 6.545² 1520

     k = 65112 N / m

Let's use Newton's second law

    F - W = 0

    F = W

    k x = W

    x = mg / k

Case 1  when loaded with people

   x₁ = 1520 9.8 / 65112

   x₁ = 0.22878 m

Case 2 when empty

   x₂ = 1200 9.8 / 65112

   x₂ = 0.18061 m

The height variation is

    ΔX = x₁ -x₂  

    ΔX = 0.22878 - 0.18061

    ΔX = 0.0483 m

Newton's Laws of Motion 2
kati45 [8]

Explanation:

Newtons 1st law :

A body or object is in a state of continuous motion or in a state of rest unless an outside force is applied to it.

Newtons 2nd law :

Newtons second law states that the force applied is directly proportional to the mass of the body and the acceleration with which it travels.

Newtons 3rd law :

Every force applied has an equal and opposite force.

a).  Newtons 3rd law

b).  Newtons 2nd law

c).  Newtons 1st law

d).  Newtons 3rd law

e).  Newtons 1st law
