In a mirror, the light ray undergoes reflection, in a glass block, the light ray undergoes refraction. For a prism, a light ray undergoes refraction and dispersion and in a glass box with a smooth surface, it may experience both reflection and refraction.
These processes of reflection, refraction, and dispersion may take place when the ray of light from the ray box is aimed at each of the objects:
Mirror: when a light beam strikes a mirror, it is reflected and reflects at an angle that is equal to the angle of incidence. According to the law of reflection, the angle of reflection and incidence are the same.
Glass Block: when a light beam penetrates a glass block at an angle, it changes direction as a result of the difference in light speed between the different media (glass and air). Refraction is the name given to this phenomenon. If the light in the glass slows down, the ray bends toward the normal, and if it speeds up, it bends away from the normal. The incidence angle and the glass's refractive index both affect how much bending occurs.
Prism: when a light beam enters a prism, it undergoes refraction as it transitions from air to the denser prism material. The rise in refractive index causes the ray to bend in the direction of the prism's base. Dispersion, or the separation of light into its individual colors (rainbow), is another effect of the prism. This occurs as a result of the various wavelengths of light diffracting differently as they pass through the prism. The stunning array of colors that occurs when light passes through a glass prism is caused by this phenomenon.
Hence, in a mirror, the light ray undergoes reflection, in a glass block the light ray undergoes refraction. For a prism, a light ray undergoes refraction and dispersion and in a glass box with a smooth surface, it may experience both reflection and refraction.

Answer:
True
Explanation:
In the first step of coal making all the plant species and trees which start decaying, gets buried under the earth crust and lead to the formation of peat. The peat is further acted upon by the heat and pressure thereby leading to the formation of lignite coal (soft brown coal), which further turns into bituminous coal (black and brittle) and then get converted into anthracite (highest carbon content and is found at greatest depth)
Answer: The diameter of the circular path is 2.96m
Explanation: centripetal acceleration = tangential speed^2 / radius of the circular path.
Centripetal acceleration = 2.7m/s^2
Tangential speed = 2.0m/s
Radius = 2.0^2 / 2.7 = 4/2.7
= 1.48m
Diameter = radius*2
= 1.48*2 = 2.96m.
