Students in a science class observe a model that illustrates that when white light passes through a prism, each wavelength is bent at a slightly different angle due to the wavelength of the color of light. Students are asked to describe this phenomenon in terms of what it is called, which color of light gets bent the least and therefore has the lowest frequency, and which color of light that gets bent the most and therefore has the highest frequency. Which of the following explanations about the observed model is correct? The phenomenon being observed is diffraction, the red color is bent the least and has the lowest frequency, and the violet color is bent the most and has the highest frequency.

The phenomenon being observed is diffraction, the violet color is bent the least and has the lowest frequency, and the red color is bent the most and has the highest frequency
The phenomenon being observed is refraction, the red color is bent the least and has the lowest frequency, and the violet color is bent the most and has the highest frequency.
The phenomenon being observed is refraction, the violet color is bent the least and has the lowest frequency, and the red color is bent the most and has the highest frequency.

Emmy kicks a soccer ball up at an angle of 45° over a level field. she watches the ball's trajectory and notices that it lands, two seconds after being kicked, about 20 m away to the north. assume that air resistance is negligible, and plot the horizontal and vertical components of the ball's velocity as a function of time. consider only the time that the ball is in the air, after being kicked but before landing. take "north" and "up" as the positive ‑ and ‑directions, respectively, and use ≈10 m/s2 for the downward acceleration due to gravity.

7.study the scenario. a small container of water with a low temperature is poured into a large container of water with a higher temperature. which choice correctly explains what happens to the thermal energy of these systems? the smaller container of water has more heat and thermal energy than the larger container. some heat and thermal energy is transferred to the larger container of water. the larger container of water has more heat and thermal energy than the smaller container. some heat and thermal energy is transferred to the smaller container of water. the larger container of water has more thermal energy and some of that energy is transferred to the colder water in a process known as heating. the smaller container of water has more thermal energy than the larger container, and some of that energy is transferred to the warmer water in a process known as heating.
