Refraction is said to occur when there is a change in the speed of light.

<h3>What is the angle of refraction?</h3>

We know that refraction is said to occur when there is a change in the speed of light as it travels form one medium to another.

Given that the refractive index of the rectangular glass block is 1.5. The angle of refraction can be obtained by the use of the Snell's law;

n = sin i /sinr

n = refractive index

sini = angle of incidence

sin r = angle of refraction

sinr = sini/n

sinr = sin 45/1.5

= 0.471

r = 28 degrees

b) Now;

sinr =sin 45/1.2

sinr = 0.589

r = 36 degrees

For the glass

sinr = sin 36/1.5

sin r = 0.392

r = 23 degrees

A sinusoidal electromagnetic wave is propagating in vacuum. At a given point P and at a particular time, the electric field is i

olasank [31]

Answer:

The direction of the wave propagation is the negative z -axis

The amplitude of electric and magnetic field are $A_E= 3.35*10^5 V/m$ ,

$A_M= 1.12 *10^{-3} T$ respectively

Explanation:

According to right hand rule, your finger (direction of electric field) would be pointing in the positive x-axis i.e towards your right let your palms be face toward the direction of the magnetic field i.e negative y-axis (toward the ground ) Then anywhere your thumb stretched out is facing is the direction of propagation of the wave here in this case is the negative z -axis

The Intensity of the wave is mathematically represented as

$I = \frac{1}{2} c \epsilon _O E_{rms}^2$

Given that $I = 7.43 \frac{kW}{cm^2} = 7.43 \frac{*10^3}{*10^-{4} }= 7.43*10^7 \frac{W}{m^2}$

Making $E_{rms}$ the subject we have

$E_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{I}{0.5*c*\epsilon_o} }$

Substituting values as given on the question

$E_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{7.43 *10^7[\frac{W}{m^2} ]}{0.5 * 3.08*10^8 *8.85*10^{-12}} }$

$= 2.37*10^5 \ V/m$

The amplitude of the electric field is mathematically represented as

$A_E = \sqrt{2} * E_{rms}$

$= \sqrt{2} * 2.37*10^5$

$A_E= 3.35*10^5 V/m$

The amplitude of the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

$A_M = \frac{A_E}{c}$

Substituting value

$A_M = \frac{3.35 *10^5}{3.0*10^8}$

$A_M= 1.12 *10^{-3} T$

You are singing a song at karaoke and reach a part that requires a louder, more intense sound. What must you do to produce a lou

FrozenT [24]

More energy is used in creating a louder sound from the mouth.

<h3>What must you do to produce a louder sound?</h3>

We use more energy in order to produce a louder sound because energy is the thing that helps in the formation of loud sound. Loudness is dependent on the energy that creates loud sound in the mouth. More energy we apply, more loud sound will produce. Energy is the main factor which gives us a loud sound in each and every instruments. Without, we can't imagine loud sound.

So we can conclude that more energy is used in creating a louder sound from the mouth.
