The deflection angle is 37.29º if the prism was made of polystyrene plastic.

What is a laser beam?

Laser beam is a light beam propagating dominantly in one direction.

It is a beam of radiation produced from a laser.

Here given that,

refraction index of glass, n1= 1.52

refraction index of polystyrene plastic, n2 = 1.59

deflection angle, B = 22.6º

For the second surface,

B  = 45º - 22.6º

B  = 22.40º

Now from the formula of Snell's law:

n1 sinФ = n2 sin B

sin B / sinФ = n1 / n2

sinФ = (sin 22.40º) * ( 1/ 1.59)

Ф = 37.29º

Hence,

The deflection angle is 37.29º if the prism was made of polystyrene plastic.

Examine the lightbulbs in the circuit below. Write a sentence explaining what would happen if lightbulb A burned out. Repeat thi
tatiyna

If the lightbulb A in the circuit shown in the image burned out, the path for the  current to flow is disrupted because one of its terminals is connected direct to the source. So, there will be no current through the lightbulbs B, C, and D, and they will turn off. Similarly it will happen, if the lightbulb D burned out.

If the lightbulb B burned out the current will continue circulating through the lightbulbs A, C, and D, because lightbulb B is connected in parallel. Similarly it will happen, if the lightbulb C burned out.

A circular coil consists of N = 410 closely winded turns of wire and has a radius R = 0.75 m. A counterclockwise current I = 2.4
Svetllana [295]

The complete question is;

A circular coil consists of N = 410 closely winded turns of wire and has a radius R = 0.75 m. A counterclockwise current I = 2.4 A is in the coil. The coil is set in a magnetic field of magnitude B = 1.1 T.

a. Express the magnetic dipole moment μ in terms of the number of the turns N, the current I, and radius

R.

b. Which direction does μ go?

Answer:

A) μ = 1738.87 A.m²

B) The direction of the magnetic moment will be in upward direction.

Explanation:

We are given;

The number of circular coils;

N = 410

The radius of the coil;R = 0.75m

The current in the coils; I = 2.4 A

The strength of magnetic field;

B =1.1T

The formula for magnetic dipole moment is given as;

μ = NIA

Where;

N is number of turns

I is current

A is area

Now, area; A = πr²

So, A = π(0.75)²

Thus,plugging in relevant values, the magnetic dipole moment is;

μ = 410 * 2.4 * π(0.75)²

μ = 1738.87 A.m²

B) According to Fleming's right hand rule, the direction of the magnetic moment comes out to be in upward direction.
