A ray of light traveling in air strikes the surface of a liquid. if the angle of incidence is 31.7◦ and the angle of refraction
Andrei [34K]
Media 1 and 2 are air and liquid. By Snell's law;
n1/n2 = Sin ∅2/Sin ∅1

Then,
n2 = (n1* Sin Ф1)/Sin ∅2 = (1*Sin 31.7)/Sin 21.3 = 1.4466.

When the light travels in the opposite direction and at critical angle, media 1 and 2 are liquid and air respectively while ∅2 = 90°

Therefore,
n1/n2 = Sin 90 / Sin ∅c => ∅c = Sin ^-1[n2*Sin 90]/n1 = Sin ^-1[1*Sin 90]/1.4466 = 43.73°

The critical angle (∅c) is 43.73°.

When ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 400.0 nm falls on a certain metal surface, the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted
Andru [333]

Answer:

Explanation:

energy of photon having wavelength of 400 nm = 1237.5/400 eV

= 3.1 eV.

Maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons = 1.1 eV .

Threshold energy Ф = 3.1 - 1.1 = 2 eV .

energy of photons having wavelength of 310 nm = 1237.5 / 310 eV = 4 eV .

Maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons = energy of photons - Threshold energy

= 4 - 2 = 2 eV .

Required kinetic energy K₀= 2 eV.

What happens to the density of an object if the mass increases, but the volume remains the same?
mel-nik [20]

A measure of mass per unit of volume. It is how much material a certain volume contains. ... If the volume of the object stays the same but the mass of the object increases then its density becomes greater.
