CR < CY < CB

<h3>Which factors affect the critical angle for a given pair of media?</h3>

The factors which affect the critical angle are

(a) The colour (or wavelength) of light

(b) The temperature

(i) Effect of colour of light: The critical angle for a pair of media is less for the violet light and more for the red light. Thus the critical angle increases with the increase in wavelength of light.

(ii) Effect of temperature: The critical angle increases with increase in temperature because on increasing temperature of medium, its refractive index decreases.

According to the question,

μ 1 sinCR =1

μ 2 sinCY =1

μ 3 sinCB =1

μ 1 > μ 2 and μ 2 > μ 3

⟹μ 1 > μ 2 > μ 3

CR < CY < CB

Thus,

The critical angle increases with the increase in wavelength of light.

A 46.8-g golf ball is driven from the tee with an initial speed of 58.8 m/s and rises to a height of 24.7 m. (a) Neglect air res

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

a) the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point is 69.58 J

b) its speed when it is 8.11 m below its highest point is 55.97 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of golf ball m = 46.8 g = 0.0468 kg

initial speed of the ball v₁ = 58.8 m/s

height h = 24.7 m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point = ?

from the conservation of energy;

Kinetic energy at the highest point will be;

K.Ei + P.Ei = KEf + PEf

now the Initial potential energy of the ball P.Ei = 0 J

1/2mv² + 0 J = KEf + mgh

K.Ef = 1/2mv² - mgh

we substitute

K.Ef = [1/2 × 0.0468 × (58.8 )²] - [0.0468 × 9.8 × 24.7]

K.Ef = 80.904 - 11.3284

K.Ef = 69.58 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point is 69.58 J

b) when the ball is 8.11 m below the highest point, speed = ?

so our raw height h' will be ( 24.7 m - 8.11 m) = 16.59 m

so our velocity will be v₂

also using the principle of energy conservation;

K.Ei + P.Ei = KEh + PEh

1/2mv² + 0 J = 1/2mv₂² + mgh'

1/2mv₂² = 1/2mv² - mgh'

multiply through by 2/m

v₂² = v² - 2gh'

v₂ = √( v² - 2gh' )

we substitute

v₂ = √( (58.8)² - 2×9.8×16.59 )

v₂ = √( 3457.44 - 325.164 )

v₂ = √( 3132.276 )

v₂ = 55.97 m/s

Therefore, its speed when it is 8.11 m below its highest point is 55.97 m/s

How much work does the electric field do in moving a proton from a point with a potential of +125 v to a point where it is -55 v

777dan777 [17]

The work W done by the electric field in moving the proton is equal to the difference in electric potential energy of the proton between its initial location and its final location, therefore:
$W= qV_i - qV_f$
where q is the charge of the proton, $q=1 e = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C$ , with $e$ being the elementary charge, and $V_i = +125 V$ and $V_f = -55 V$ are the initial and final voltage.

Substituting, we get (in electronvolts):
$W=e(125 V-(-55 V))=180 eV$
and in Joule:
$W=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19})(125 V-(-55V))=2.88 \cdot 10^{-17}J$

matrenka [14]

Answer:

The refractive index of the outer coating is 1.52.

Explanation:

Refractive index of interior part, n' = 1.97

critical angle, C = 50.4°

Let the refractive index of the coating is n.

Use the Snell's law,

$n\times sin r = n'\times sinC\\\\n\times sin 90 = 1.97 \times sin 50.4\\\\n = 1.52$
