Physics
1 answer:
rewona [7]2 years ago
4 0

Glass has a <u>grater </u>index of refraction than air. The glass's and air's indexes of refraction will be 1.5 and 1, respectively.

<h3>What is an index of refraction?</h3>

The refractive index of a substance is a dimensionless quantity that specifies how quickly light passes through it in optics.

The index of refraction of the glass and air will be 1.5 and 1 respectively.

Hence,glass has a <u>grater </u>index of refraction than air.

You are retrieving your boat from the water. as a courtesy to others, when should you pull your boat into a launch lane?
OLga [1]
The best way to pull the boat in the launch lane is when the towing vehicle has reached the boat ramp as well as the trailer. It is best to retrieve the boat in this manner for it is more appropriate, convenient and it is a way of showing courtesy towards others because it is a proper manner.

True or false? the potential energy of a membrane potential comes solely from the difference in electrical charge across the mem
bazaltina [42]
The statement would be False. T<span>he potential energy of a membrane potential comes solely from the difference in electrical charge across the membrane. In addition to that, membrane potential actually regulates the potential difference of nerve cells across the membrane estimated at 70 mV.</span>

Answer:

a) N = 145,833,674.52174 = 1.458 × 10⁸ strands

b) diameter of single rope with the same effect = 2.415 cm

Explanation:

Hooke's law explains that stress is directly proportional to strain.

Stress ∝ Strain.

Stress = E × Strain

E = constant of proportionality = Young's Modulus = 4.0 ✕ 10⁹ N/m².

Stress = (Load/Total Cross sectional Area)

Load = a pair of 85 kg mountain climbers = 85 × 2 × 9.8 = 1666 N

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand) = A

Strain = (ΔL/L)

ΔL = 1.00 cm = 0.01 m

L = 11 m

Strain = (0.01/11) = 0.0009091

Stress = (Young's Modulus) × (Strain) = (4.0 ✕ 10⁹) × (0.0009091) = 3,636,363.64 N/m²

(Load/ total Area) = 3,636,363.64

Total area = (Load/3,636,363.64) = (1666/3,636,363.64) = 0.00045815 m²

Recall,

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand)

Area of one strand = (πd²/4)

diameter of one strand = 2 μm = (2×10⁻⁶) m

Area of one strand = (πd²/4)

= π × (2×10⁻⁶)² ÷ 4 = (3.142 × 10⁻¹²) m²

Total Cross sectional Area = (Number of strands) × (Area of one strand)

0.00045815 = N × (3.142 × 10⁻¹²)

N = 145,833,674.52174 = 1.458 × 10⁸ strands

b) If it was a single rope, the cross sectional Area would just be equal to the total cross sectional Area obtained in (a)

A = 0.00045815 m²

A = (πD²/4)

where D = diameter of the single rope

0.00045815 = (πD²/4)

D² = (4×0.00045815) ÷ π = 0.0005833347

D = 0.02415 m = 2.415 cm

Hope this Helps!!!
