The name of the brightest star is ursae majoris. it is a dwarf star and lie in the constellation of ursa major. that is why it has such similar name. around this star , we have three planets around this star. the distance of this star is around 46 light years. also it's mass is almost same as that of the sun. it rotates with a period of 24 hours

ANSWER:

d. remains a non-zero constant.

Light is incident along the normal to face AB of a glass prism of refractive index 1.54. Find αmax, the largest value the angle

marusya05 [52]

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to Snell's law.

Snell's law establishes that reflection is subject to

$n_1sin\theta_1 = n_2sin\theta_2$

Where,

$\theta =$ Angle between the normal surface at the point of contact

n = Indices of refraction for corresponding media

The total internal reflection would then be given by

$n_1 sin\theta_1 = n_2sin\theta_2$

$(1.54) sin\theta_1 = (1.33)sin(90)$

$sin\theta_1 = \frac{1.33}{1.54}$

$\theta = sin^{-1}(\frac{1.33}{1.54})$

$\theta = 59.72\°$

Therefore the $\alpha_{max}$ would be equal to

$\alpha = 90\°-\theta$

$\alpha = 90-59.72$

$\alpha = 30.27\°$

Therefore the largest value of the angle α is 30.27°

A spring hangs at rest from a support. If you suspend a 0.46 kg mass from the spring it elongates 0.79m.

Fudgin [204]

a. The restoring force in the spring has magnitude

F[spring] = k (0.79 m)

which counters the weight of the mass,

F[weight] = (0.46 kg) g = 4.508 N

so that by Newton's second law,

F[spring] - F[weight] = 0 ⇒ k = (4.508 N) / (0.79 m) ≈ 5.7 N/m

b. Using the same equation as before, we now have

F[weight] = (0.75 kg) g = 7.35 N

so that

(5.7 N/m) x - 7.35 N = 0 ⇒ x = (7.35 N) / (5.7 N/m) ≈ 1.3 m
