Describe the electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves, and give two examples of different types of electromagnetic waves.

An object in mechanical equilibrium is an object

What would occur if the index of refraction of a material was less than n=1? the speed of light would increase to a speed larger than the maximum speed of light in a vacuum. the light wave would not bend at all though the material. the light wave would not be able to refract and would instead reflect off of the material. the speed of light would reduce to values close to 0 m/s.

In the middle of the night you are standing a horizontal distance of 14.0 m from the high fence that surrounds the estate of your rich uncle. the top of the fence is 5.00 m above the ground. you have taped an important message to a rock that you want to throw over the fence. the ground is level, and the width of the fence is small enough to be ignored. you throw the rock from a height of 1.60 m above the ground and at an angle of 54.0 degrees above the horizontal. part a part complete what minimum initial speed must the rock have as it leaves your hand to clear the top of the fence? express your answer with the appropriate units. part b for the initial velocity calculated in the previous part, what horizontal distance beyond the fence will the rock land on the ground?
