A certain kind of glass has an index of refraction of 1.640 for blue light of wavelength 440 nm and an index of 1.595 for red li

ght of wavelength 670 nm. If a beam containing these two colors is incident at an angle of 30.0° on a piece of this glass, what is the angle between the two beams inside the glass?

Answer: 18.27°

Explanation:

Given

Index of refraction of blue light, n(b) = 1.64

Wavelength of blue light, λ(b) = 440 nm

Index of refraction of red light, n(r) = 1.595

Wavelength of red light, λ(r) = 670 nm

Angle of incident, θ = 30°

Angle of refraction of red light is

θ(r) = sin^-1 [(n(a)* sin θ) / n(r)], where n(a) = index of refraction of air = 1

So that,

θ(r) = sin^-1 [(1 * sin 30) / 1.595]

θ(r) = sin^-1 (0.5 / 1.595)

θ(r) = sin^-1 0.3135

θ(r) = 18.27°

Norma-Jean [14]
Given: distance 1 d₁ = 40 m;  distance 2 d₂ = 3.8 m   g = -9.8 m/s²

 Initial Velocity Vi = 0  Final Velocity of stone 2 is unknown = ?

Total distance dₓ = d₁ - d₂  = 40 m - 3.8 m = 36.2 m

Formula: a = Vf² -  Vi²/2d   derive for Final Velocity Vf
 
acceleration is now due to gravity, therefore a = g

Vf = √2gd   Vf = √2(9.8 m/s²)(36.2 m)

Vf = 26.64 m/s  

Reason: The second stone will still start from rest.

billy bob joe's truck has a mass of 3,800 g and an acceleration of 4.5 m/s^2. what is the force of the truck? (you will have to
maria [59]

Answer:

<h2>17.1 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

3800 g = 3.8 kg

We have

force = 3.8 × 4.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>17.1 N</h3>

Hope this helps you
