A ray of light traveling through air strikes a piece of diamond at an angle of incidence equal to 56 degrees. Calculate the angu

lar separation in degrees between the red light and the violet light in the refracted ray, given that: The index of refraction of violet light ( Lamdaviolet = 400nm) in diamond is 2.46. The index of refraction of red light ( Lamdared = 700nm) in diamond is 2.41. Enter the numeric value in degrees.

Answer:

The angle of separation is  \Delta \theta =  0.93 ^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The angle of incidence is  \theta  _ i  = 56^o

     The refractive index of violet light  in diamond  is  n_v = 2.46

       The refractive index of red light in diamond is n_r = 2.41

      The wavelength of violet light is  \lambda _v = 400nm = 400*10^{-9}m

         The wavelength of red  light is  \lambda _r = 700nm = 700*10^{-9}m

Snell's  Law can be represented mathematically as

         \frac{sin \theta_i}{sin \theta_r} = n

Where \theta_r is the angle of refraction

=>       sin \theta_r  =   \frac{sin \theta_i}{n}

Now considering violet light

               sin \theta_r__{v}}  =   \frac{sin \theta_i}{n_v}

substituting values

                sin \theta_r__{v}}  =   \frac{sin (56)}{2.46}

                 sin \theta_r__{v}}  =  0.337

                 \theta_r__{v}}  =  sin ^{-1} (0.337)

                 \theta_r__{v}}  =  19.69^o

Now considering red light

               sin \theta_r__{R}}  =   \frac{sin \theta_i}{n_r}

substituting values

                sin \theta_r__{R}}  =   \frac{sin (56)}{2.41}

                 sin \theta_r__{R}}  =  0.344

                 \theta_r__{R}}  =  sin ^{-1} (0.344)

                 \theta_r__{R}}  = 20.12^o

The angle of separation between the red light and the violet light is mathematically evaluated as

                  \Delta \theta = \theta_r__{R}} -  \theta_r__{V}}

substituting values

                  \Delta \theta =20.12 - 19.69

                  \Delta \theta =  0.93 ^o

Emily wanted to see what battery lasted the longest. She put each battery into a clock and recorded the time that the clock stop
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the following variables:

Independent variable (IV): Battery

Dependent variable (DV): Time the clock stopped

Constant: Same clock

Control: No stated control

Explanation:

The independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is subject to manipulation or change by the experimenter. In this experiment, the independent variable is the BATTERIES (Duracell, Energizer, Kroger brand, EverReady).

The dependent variable is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable. It is the variable that the experimenter measures. In this case, the dependent variable is the TIME IT TAKES FOR THE CLOCK TO STOP.

Constants or control variable is the variable that the experimenter keeps constant or unchanged for all groups throughout the experiment in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment. The constant in this case is the SAME CLOCK USED.

Control group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment or independent variable in an experiment. In this case, all groups received a different kind of battery.

La ecuación de la posición de una esferita está dada por: r(t)=(2.Cos(πt) i-3.Sen(πt) j) (m) ¿Cuál es la velocidad de la esferit
katovenus [111]

Answer:

v = (-4.44 i^ + 6.66 j^ )  m/s, a_average =( 0 i^ -2π j^) m/s²

Explanation:

The expression left corresponds to an oscillatory movement (MAS), the speed is defined by

         v = dr / dt

the function of position

         r = 2 cos πt  i^  + 3 sin πt  j^

let us note that it is a movement in two dimensions

let's perform the derivative

          v = -2π sin πt  i^  + 3π cos πt  j^

we evaluate this expression for t = 0.25 s, remember that the angle is in radians

          v = -2π sin (π 0.25) i^ + 3π cos (π 0.25) j^

           v = (-4.44 i^ + 6.66 j^ )  m/s

To calculate the mean acceleration we use the expression

           a = (v_{f} - v_{o}) / Δt

 

indicates that the time is the first 3 s

       

we look for the initial velocity t = 0 s

           v₀ = 0 i ^ + 3π j ^

         

we look for the fine velocity, t = 3 s

          v_f = - 2π sin (π 3) + 3π cos (π 3) j ^

          v_f = 0 i ^ - 3π j ^

we calculate the average acceleration

            Δt = (3 -0) = 3 s

           a_average = (0-0) / 3 i ^ + (-3π - 3π) / 3

           a_average = (0 i ^ -2π j ^ ) m/s²
