Which stream has the greatest potential energy on the top: stream with steeper slope or stream with gentle slope?

An experiment is designed to test the relationship between the initial height of a basketball before it is dropped to the height of its rebound bounce. the height of the rebound bounce is measured using a scale positioned behind the ball. in the above experiment, which condition would not be controlled? a). the starting height of the ballb). the surface the ball bounces on c). the type of ball d). the method to measure the rebound height of the ball

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most of the light incident upon it. this works through a process known as multiphoton absorption. in this process, several photons are absorbed at the same time. if very intense light whose photons carry 2ev of energy is shined onto a material with a band gap of 4ev, that light can be absorbed through two-photon absorption, because two photons have the right amount of energy to bridge the band gap. what is the minimum number of photons of 800-nm light that are needed to equal or exceed the band gap of fused silica glass

Because light travels in a straight line and casts a shadow, isaac newton hypothesized that light is
