Answer:

1.7\cdot 10^3 N

Explanation:

The impulse theorem states that the product between the force and the time interval of the collision is equal to the change in momentum:

F \Delta t = m \Delta v

where

F is the force

\Delta t is the time interval

m is the mass

\Delta v is the change in velocity

Here we have

m = 84 kg

\Delta t = 1.2 s

\Delta v = 24 m/s

So we can solve the equation to find the force:

F= \frac{m \Delta v}{\Delta t }=\frac{(84 kg)(24 m/s)}{1.2 s}=1680 N \sim 1.7\cdot 10^3 N

Light propagate faster through medium “a” than medium “b”
dangina [55]

1) Medium "b" has more optical density

2) Light must hit the interface between the two mediums perpendicularly

Explanation:

1)

Refraction occurs when light propagates from a medium into a second medium.

The optical density of a medium is given by its index of refraction, which is defined as:

n=\frac{c}{v}

where

c is the speed of light in a vacuum

v is the speed of light in a medium

Higher index of refraction means higher optical density, and light propagater slower into a medium with higher optical density.

In this problem, light propagates faster through medium "a" than medium "b": this means that medium "a" has lower refractive index of medium "b", and so "b" has more optical density.

2)

We can answer this part by referring to Snell's law, which gives the relationship between the direction of the incident ray and of the refracted ray when light passes through the interface between two media:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n_1, n_2 are the index of refraction of the two mediums

\theta_1, \theta_2 are the angle of incidence and of refraction (the angle that light makes with the normal to the surface in medium 1 and medium 2)

Here we want the direction of propagation of the light ray not to change: this means that it must be

sin \theta_1 = sin \theta_2 (1)

However, here we have two mediums "a" and "b" with different index of refraction, so

n_1\neq n_2

Therefore the only angle that can satisfy eq.(1) is

\theta_1 = \theta_2 = 0

So, the light must hit the surface perpendicular to the interface between the two mediums.

Describe a situation where you add heat to a substance or material but there is no change in temperature. What does this look li
Alisiya [41]
ONE CAN perform this by doing an ideal experiment
by creating an isothermal system
its like you supply heat to a body and that body is present at very low temperature the amount of heat you supply is equal to the amount of heat lost by that body due to difference in the temperature of the body and the surrounding. heating curve will be constant as there is no change in the internal energy of the system ..

Estimate the number of times the earth will rotate on its axis during a human’s lifetime
Fudgin [204]

Here we have to calculate  the number of rotations made by earth around its own axis in the entire life time of a human being.

The average human life is 50 years .

Each year is 365.5 days

Hence 50 years =50 *365.5 days

                 =18,275 days

The earth rotates around its own axis in 23 hours 56 minutes and 4 second which is approximately equal to 24 hours or one days.

Hence one rotation takes one days.

⇒18,275 days =18,275 rotations

Hence the total number of rotations made by earth around its own axis in the life time of a average human life time will be 18,275 times
