Answer:
The speed of light is that medium is 281907786.2 m/s.
Explanation:
since the critical angle is Фc = 430, we know that the refractive index is given by:
n = 1/sin(Фc)
= 1/sin(430)
= 1.06
then if n is the refractive index of the medium and c is the speed of light, then the speed of light in the medium is given by:
v = c/n
= (3×10^8)/(1.06)
= 281907786.2 m/s
Therefore, the speed of light is that medium is 281907786.2 m/s.
Answer:
<em>The force required is 3,104 N</em>
Explanation:
<u>Force</u>
According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:
F = ma
Where a is the acceleration of the object.
On the other hand, the equations of the Kinematics describe the motion of the object by the equation:

Where:
vf is the final speed
vo is the initial speed
a is the acceleration
t is the time
Solving for a:

We are given the initial speed as vo=20.4 m/s, the final speed as vf=0 (at rest), and the time taken to stop the car as t=7.4 s. The acceleration is:


The acceleration is negative because the car is braking (losing speed). Now compute the force exerted on the car of mass m=1,126 kg:

F= 3,104 N
The force required is 3,104 N
Answer:
-.457 m/s^2
Explanation:
Actual weight = 60 .3 (9.81) = 591.54 N
Accel of lift changes this to 60.3 ( 9.81 - L) where L - accel of lift
60.3 ( 9.81 - L ) = 564
solve for L = .457 m/s^2 DOWNWARD
so L = - .457 m/s^2
