Decreasing the volume of a gas and keeping everything else the same will cause its pressure to change in what way?
[ "increase", "heat up", "decrease", "lower" ]
A
When gas molecules bump into things, it creates pressure. Pressure is greater when gas molecules occupy a smaller space, because greater crowding results in more collisions. This explains why decreasing the volume of a gas increases its pressure.

The angle at which light bends when it enters a different medium is known as what?
[ "frequency", "bounce", "refraction", "resonance" ]
C
The angle at which light bends when it enters a different medium depends on its change in speed. The greater the change in speed, the greater the angle of refraction is. For example, light refracts more when it passes from air to diamond than it does when it passes from air to water. That’s because the speed of light i...
