When light moves from a medium with higher refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, the critical angle is the angle above which there is no refracted ray, and it is given by:
(2)
where
is the refractive index of the second medium and
is the refractive index of the first medium.
We can find the ratio
by using Snell's law:
(1)
where
is the angle of incidence
is the angle of refraction
By using the data of the problem and re-arranging (1), we find
and if we use eq.(2) we can now find the value of the critical angle:
Answer:
437 J
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Weight of child, W = 230 N
Height of swing, h = 1.9 m
Gravitational Potential Energy is given as:
P. E. = m*g*h = W*h
m = mass
h = height above the ground
W = weight
P. E. = 230 * 1.9
P. E. = 437 J
Answer:According to the Equation (2), centripetal force is proportional to the square of the speed for an object of given mass M rotating in a given radius R.
Explanation:The Period T. The time T required for one complete revolution is called the period. For. constant speed. v = 2π r T holds.
In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.
This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.
The body systems that help cells get the energy they need are the digestive system and circulatory system. The first system is the digestive system because when you eat food, your body breaks it down using the stomach and other different parts of the digestive system. The next one is the circulatory system because your blood carries the nutrients you acquired from food you digested to the cells throughout your body.
