Answer:

103.44g

Explanation:

R=f/u

=750/0.8

=937.5N

m = 937.5/10cos25

m = 103.44g

A transparent oil with index of refraction 1.28 spills on the surface of water (index of refraction 1.33), producing a maximum o

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The thickness of the oil slick is $1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Index of refraction = 1.28

Wave length = 500 nm

Order m = 1

We need to calculate the thickness of oil slick

Using formula of thickness

$2nt= m\lambda$

Where, n = Index of refraction

t = thickness

$\lambda$ = wavelength

Put the value into the formula

$2\times1.28 \times t=1\times\times500\times10^{-9}$

$t = \dfrac{1\times\times500\times10^{-9}}{2\times1.28 }$

$t=1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

Hence, The thickness of the oil slick is $1.95\times10^{-7}\ m$

An ore sample weighs 17.50 N in air. When the sample

zysi [14]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Weight of an ore sample=17.5 N

Tension in the cord=11.2 N

We have to find the total volume and the density of the sample.

We know that

Tension, T= $W-F_b$

$F_b$ =buoyancy force

T=Tension force

W=Weight

By using the formula

$11.2=17.5-F_b$

$F_b=17.5-11.2=6.3$ N

$F_b=V_{object}\times \rho_{water}\cdot g$

Where

$V_{object}$ =Volume of object

$\rho_{water}=1000 kgm^{-3}$ =Density of water

$g=9.8 ms^{-2}$ =Acceleration due to gravity

Substitute the values then we get

$6.3=9.8\times 1000\times V_{object}$

$V_{object}=\frac{6.3}{9.8\times 1000}=6.43\times 10^{-4} m^3$

Volume of sample= $6.43\times 10^{-4} m^3$

Density of sample, $\rho_{object}=\frac{Mass}{volume_{object}}$

Where mass of ore sample=1.79 kg

Substitute the values then, we get

$\rho_{object}=\frac{1.79}{6.43\times 10^{-4}}=2.78\times 10^3 kg/m^3$

Density of the sample= $2.78\times 10^{3} kgm^{-3}$
