Refraction occurs when a wave enters a new medium at an angle because

Physics
1 answer:
devlian [24]2 years ago
4 0

Answer

The refracted wave must obey Snell's equation

Ni sin θi = Nr sin θr

If Nr differs from Ni then sin θr  will differ from sin θi

If the wave originates from point A and ends at point B then Snell's Law shows that the time for light to get from point A to point B is a minimum.

Class characteristics serve as corroboration for other, more subjective pieces of evidence in a courtroom (like witness testimon
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Class characteristics can be define as the features which are common to the group of objects. Like the make, model, label of the manufacturing company, design, shape and form. The individual characteristics can be define as the features which develop on the object or any other article with it's wear and use. Like tear, cuts, malformation and deposition of dust, dirt, and mud. The individual characteristic indicate towards the ownership of article or evidence to a particular person.

The class characteristics can only support the possibility of the evidence exactly alike that of the evidence found at the scene of crime. But the individual characteristics can directly link the evidence with the cause of crime. Hence, will be useful to prove that a crime has taken place in the court of law.

The distance between stars is typically measured in
Murljashka [212]
<span>The question says: complete the sentence: The distance between stars is typically measured in.... The answer is 'light years" - the distance that light travels in a year. That's because it's a very big unit and if we were using smaller units, we would be using huge numbers that would be hard to read and would take up a lot of space.</span>

Before beginning a long trip on a hot day, a driver inflates anautomobile tire to a gauge pressure of 2.70 atm at 300 K. At the
anygoal [31]

Answer:

The value is the temperature of the air inside the tire T_{2} = 340.54 K

% of the original mass of air in the tire should be released 99.706 %

Explanation:

Initial gauge pressure = 2.7 atm

Absolute pressure at inlet P_{1} = 2.7 + 1 = 3.7 atm

Absolute pressure at outlet P_{2} = 3.2 + 1 = 4.2 atm

Temperature at inlet T_{1} = 300 K

(a) Volume of the system is constant so  pressure is directly proportional to the temperature.

\frac{T_{2} }{T_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} }{P_{1} }

\frac{T_{2} }{300}  = \frac{4.2}{3.7}

T_{2} = 340.54 K

This is the value is the temperature of the air inside the tire

(b). Since volume of the tyre is constant & pressure reaches the original value.

From ideal gas equation P V = m R T

Since P , V & R is constant. So

m T = constant

m_{1}  T_{1} =  m_{2}  T_{2}

\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1}  } = \frac{T_{1} }{T_{2} }

\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1}  } = \frac{300}{354.54}

\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1}  } =0.00294

value of  the original mass of air in the tire should be released is  \frac{m_{2} - m_{1}}{m_{1}}

\frac{0.00294-1}{1}

⇒ -0.99706

% of the original mass of air in the tire should be released 99.706 %.
