You have a beaker with a layer of olive oil floating on top of water. A ray of light travels through the oil and is incident on

the water with an angle of 73.4°. Using the index of refraction of the oil as 1.470 and the index of refraction of water as 1.333, determine the critical angle in oil for the oil-water interface.

Answer:

65.07^{\circ}

Explanation:

The critical angle in oil for the oil-water interface refers to the angle for which the light ray is totally reflected.

Angle of incidence = 73.4°

Angle of refraction = 1.470°

Index of refraction = 1.333

\theta_c=\sin^{-1}\left ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} \right )

Here, \theta_c refers to the critical angle.

n_2 is an index of refraction

n_1 is angle of refraction

\theta_c=\sin^{-1}\left ( \frac{1.333}{1.47} \right )=65.07^{\circ}

Here, angle of incidence is more than the critical angle,

light undergoes total internal reflection.

A particle leaves the origin with a speed of 3 106 m/s at 38 degrees to the positive x axis. It moves in a uniform electric fiel
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

If the particle is an electron E_y = 3.311 * 10^3 N/C

If the particle is a proton, E_y = 6.08 * 10^6 N/C

Explanation:

Initial speed at the origin, u = 3 * 10^6 m/s

\theta = 38^0 to +ve x-axis

The particle crosses the x-axis at , x = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

The particle can either be an electron or a proton:

Mass of an electron, m_e = 9.1 * 10^{-31} kg

Mass of a proton, m_p = 1.67 * 10^{-27} kg

The electric field intensity along the positive y axis E_y, can be given by the formula:

E_y = \frac{2 m u^2 sin \theta cos \theta}{qx} \\

If the particle is an electron:

E_y = \frac{2 m_e u^2 sin \theta cos \theta}{qx} \\

E_y = \frac{2 * 9.1 * 10^{-31} * (3*10^6)^2 *(sin38)( cos38)}{1.6*10^{-19} * 0.015} \\

E_y = 3311.13 N/C\\E_y = 3.311 * 10^3 N/C

If the particle is a proton:

E_y = \frac{2 m_p u^2 sin \theta cos \theta}{qx} \\

E_y = \frac{2 * 1.67 * 10^{-27} * (3*10^6)^2 *(sin38)( cos38)}{1.6*10^{-19} * 0.015} \\

E_y = 6.08 * 10^6 N/C

What force is needed to move a barrel 45-m if 3600 J of work are accomplished?​
lesantik [10]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 80 N</h3>

Explanation:

The force acting on the object can be found by using the formula

f =  \frac{w}{d}  \\

where

d is the distance

w is the work done

We have

f =  \frac{3600}{45}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>80 N</h3>

Hope this helps you
