Undergrad Light Properties: Refraction & Huygens' Principle
light is refracted when it enters another medium. this is based on the index of refraction of the medium the light enters. Denser mediums have higher indexes, which leads to lower speeds of light. Although acceleration or deceleration usually apply to matter, in this case it would make sense to... -

Circular Motion and Centripetal Force of a Swinging Bucket
at the top of the path, the normal force the bucket exerts on the water is 0. therefore, applied force, which is equal to normal force, is 0. Thus mg=(m)(v2/r) solving for v gets 5.94 m/s.- ama
