sergey [27]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Refracted rays travel through a boundary into a new medium.

Explanation:

Refracted rays travel through a boundary into a new medium. is only true for refraction.

The angle of incidence is the same for angle of refraction, is not true for refraction. Refraction follows Snell's law, states that ratio of the sine of the angle of refraction and the sine of the angle of incidence is always constant and equivalent to the ratio of phase velocities of the two mediums it is passing through.

Refracted rays change direction and go back to the original medium is false for refraction however, it is true for reflection.

If you had started with a larger mass, how would the half-life change?
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

There is no change, unless your mass is somehow at the quantum level, at which the concept of half-life breaks down.

Half life is a property of the specific radioactive isotope...NOT of the initial sample's mass.

Two parallel-plate capacitors, identical except that one has twice the plate separation of the other, are charged by the same vo
erik [133]

Answer:

The capacitor having less distance of separation has a stronger electric field.

Explanation:

The capacitors are identical and only difference between them is that one has twice the plate separation of the other. Therefore, capacitance of the given capacitors C1 and C2 is,

C1= Aε/d  and C2=Aε/2d

The charges Q1 and Q2 on the capacitors of capacitance C1 and C2 respectively, is then given by the equation,

Q1=VC1

Q1=VAε/d

Q2=VC2

Q2=VAε/2d

Therefore, the surface charge density σ1 and σ2 for the capacitors is,

σ1=Q1/A

σ1=VAε/(d*A)

σ1=Vε/d

Similarly,

σ2=Q2/A

σ2=Vε/2d

The electric field between the plates is directly proportional to the surface charge density. And so electric field is inversely proportional to the distance of separation. Therefore the capacitor whose distance of separation is less has a stronger electric field.

Suppose a 65 kg person stands at the edge of a 6.5 m diameter merry-go-round turntable that is mounted on frictionless bearings
ozzi

Answer:

0.3165\ \text{rad/s}

Explanation:

m = Mass of person = 65 kg

d = Diameter of round table = 6.5 m

r = Radius = \dfrac{d}{2}=3.25\ \text{m}

v = Velocity of person running = 3.8 m/s

I_t = Moment of inertia of turntable = 1850\ \text{kg m}^2

Moment of inertia of the system is

I=I_t+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=1850+65\times 3.25^2\\\Rightarrow I=2536.5625\ \text{kg m}^2

As the angular momentum of the system is conserved we have

L_i=L_f\\\Rightarrow mvr=I\omega_f\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{mvr}{I}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=\dfrac{65\times 3.8\times 3.25}{2536.5625}\\\Rightarrow \omega_f=0.3165\ \text{rad/s}

The angular velocity of the turntable is 0.3165\ \text{rad/s}.
