A)We know the formula of the angular speed is                 ω = 2π / TWhere T is the time period.When second hand completes one revolution then the time taken is 60s.So T = 60sThen the angular speed of the second hand is          ω= 2π / (60s)             = 0.1047 rad/sb)When the minute hand completes one revolution the time taken is             T = 1 hr                = 3600sThen the angular speed of the minute hand is         ω =(2π) / (3600s) = 0.001745 rad/sc)When the hour hand completes one revolution then the timeperiod is          T = 12hrs             = (12)(3600)sThen the angular speed of the hour hand is         ω =(2π) / [(12)(3600)s] = 1.45444 x 10^-4 rad/s

The critical angle for a liquid in air is 520, What is the liquid's index of refraction? 0.62 0.79 1.27 1.50
sammy [17]

Answer:

Liquid's index of refraction, n₁ = 1.27

Explanation:

It is given that,

The critical angle for a liquid in air is, \theta_c=52^o

We have to find the refractive index of the liquid. Critical angle of a liquid is defined as the angle of incidence in denser medium for which the angle of refraction is 90°.

Using Snell's law as :

n_1sin\theta_c=n_2sin\theta_2

Here, \theta_2=90

sin\theta_c=\dfrac{n_2}{n_1}

Where

n₂ = Refractive index of air = 1

n₁ = refractive index of liquid

So,

n_1=\dfrac{n_2}{sin\theta_c}

n_1=\dfrac{1}{sin(52)}

n₁ = 1.269

or n₁ = 1.27

Hence, the refractive index of liquid is 1.27

A physics student stands on the rim of the canyon and drops a rock. The student measures the time for it to reach the bottom to
zysi [14]

Answer:

50.2 m

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the following SUVAT equation for the vertical position of the rock:

y(t)=h+ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h is the initial height (the depth of the canyon), taking the bottom of the canyon as reference position

u = 0 is the initial velocity of the rock

t is the time

g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

When the rock reaches the bottom, t = 3.2 s and y = 0. Substituting these numbers and solving for h, we find the depth of the canyon:

h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2 = -\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(3.2)^2=50.2 m
