A ray of light is incident on a flat surface of a block of polystyrene, with an index of refraction of 1.49, that is submerged i

n water. The ray is split at the surface, where the angle of refraction of the transmitted ray is 19.1°. What is the angle of reflection (in degrees) of the reflected ray?

Answer:

21.5°

Explanation:

Given,

Refractive index of water, n₁ = 1.33

Refractive index of polystyrene, n₂ = 1.49

Angle of reflection = ?

Angle of refraction = 19.1°

Using Snell's law

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

1.33 x sin θ₁ = 1.49 x sin 19.1°

sin θ₁ = 0.366

θ₁  = 21.5°

According to law of reflection angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection.

Angle of reflection =  21.5°

Find the GCF 12, 18, and 84
ahrayia [7]
To find the answer, plot down the factors for every number.

12:   1, 2 ,3 ,4, 6, 12

18:   1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

84:  1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12

If you noticed, the number that was common to the 3 numbers, were 1, 2, 3, and 6
And 6 is the bigger number
So 6 is your GCF

A series LR circuit contains an emf source of 19 V having no internal resistance, a resistor, a 22 H inductor having no apprecia
masha68 [24]

Answer: R = 394.36ohm

Explanation: In a LR circuit, voltage for a resistor in function of time is given by:

V(t) = \epsilon. e^{-t.\frac{L}{R} }

ε is emf

L is indutance of inductor

R is resistance of resistor

After 4s, emf = 0.8*19, so:

0.8*19 = 19. e^{-4.\frac{22}{R} }

0.8 = e^{-\frac{88}{R} }

ln(0.8) = ln(e^{-\frac{88}{R} })

ln(0.8) = -\frac{88}{R}

R = -\frac{88}{ln(0.8)}

R = 394.36

In this LR circuit, the resistance of the resistor is 394.36ohms.

The tub of a washer goes into its spin-dry cycle, starting from rest and reaching an angular speed of 6.0 rev/s in 11.0 s. At th
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer

given,

ω₁ = 0 rev/s

ω₂ = 6 rev/s

t = 11 s

Using equation of rotational motion

The angular acceleration is

  ωf - ωi = α t

  11 α = 6 - 0

      = 0.545 rev/s²

The angular displacement

  θ₁= ωi t + (1/2) α t²

  θ₁= 0 + (1/2) (0.545)(11)^2

  θ₁= 33 rev

case 2

ω₁ = 6 rev/s

ω₂ = 0 rev/s

t = 14 s

Using equation of rotational motion

The angular acceleration is

  ωf - ωi = α t

  14 α = 0 - 6

        = - 0.428 rev/s²

The angular displacement

  θ₂= ωi t + (1/2) α t²

  θ₂= 6 x 14 + (1/2) (-0.428)(14)^2

  θ₂= 42 rev

total revolution in 25 s is equal to

θ =  θ₁ +  θ₂

θ =  33 + 42

θ = 75 rev

The electric field due to two point charges is found by: a) finding the stronger field. The net field will just be equal to the
alekssr [168]

Answer:

b)determining the electric field due to each charge and adding them together as vectors.

Explanation:

The electric Field is a vector quantity, in other words it has a magnitude and a direction. On the other hand, the electric field follows the law of superposition. The electric field produced by two elements is equal to the sum of the electric fields produced by each element when the other element is not present. in other words, the total electric field is solved determining the electric field due to each charge and adding them together as vectors.
