Light in vacuum is incident on the surface of a slab of transparent material. In the vacuum the beam makes an angle of 39.9° wit

h the normal to the surface, while in the slab it makes an angle of 18.2° with the normal. What is the index of refraction of the transparent material?

Answer:

n=2.053

Explanation:

We will use Snell's Law defined as:

n_{1}*Sin\theta_{1}=n_{2}*Sin\theta_{2}

Where n values are indexes of refraction and \theta values are the angles in each medium. For vacuum, the index of refraction in n=1. With this we have enough information to state:

1*Sin(39.9)=n_{2}*Sin(18.2)

Solving for n_{2} yields:

n_{2}=\frac{Sin(39.9)}{Sin(18.2)}=2.053

Remember to use degrees for trigonometric functions instead of radians!

An airplane is flying from Dallas, Texas to Pensacola, Florida. Flying at maximum velocity, it encounters strong winds moving at
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

G. It will take twice as long.

Explanation:

Let's call v the original speed of the plane and d the distance between Dallas and Pensacola. The time the plane originally takes to complete the flight is

t=\frac{d}{v}

In this problem, we are told that the plane encounters wind moving at half of its speed: \frac{v}{2}, in the opposite direction. This means that the new speed of the plane is

v'=v-\frac{v}{2}=\frac{v}{2}

And so, the time the plane takes now to complete the flight is

t'=\frac{d}{v/2}=2\frac{d}{v}=2t

So, the plane takes twice the time as before.

A uniformly charged sphere has a total charge of 300uc and a radius of 8cm. Find the electric field density at A point 16cm from
s2008m [1.1K]

E = <u>kQ</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

(r + h)²

where,

k = 9 × 10^9Nm²C^-2

Q = total charge, 300uC = 300 × 10^ -6C

r = 8 × 10^ -2m

h = 16 × 10^ -2m

then,

E = <u>9</u><u>e</u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>*</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>e</u><u>^</u><u>-</u><u>6</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>

(8e^-2 + 16e^-2)²

E = 4687500N/C
