Identify each of these substances as acidic, basic, or neutral.

A ray of light incident in air strikes a rectangular glass block of refractive index 1.50, at an angle of incidence of 45°. Calc

balandron [24]

Answer:

Approximately $28^{\circ}$ .

Explanation:

The refractive index of the air $n_{\text{air}}$ is approximately $1.00$ .

Let $n_\text{glass}$ denote the refractive index of the glass block, and let $\theta _{\text{glass}}$ denote the angle of refraction in the glass. Let $\theta_\text{air}$ denote the angle at which the light enters the glass block from the air.

By Snell's Law:

$n_{\text{glass}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{glass}}) = n_{\text{air}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{air}})$ .

Rearrange the Snell's Law equation to obtain:

$\begin{aligned} \sin(\theta_{\text{glass}}) &= \frac{n_{\text{air}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{air}})}{n_{\text{glass}}} \\ &= \frac{(1.00)\, (\sin(45^{\circ}))}{1.50} \\ &\approx 0.471\end{aligned}$ .

Hence:

$\begin{aligned} \theta_{\text{glass}} &= \arcsin (0.471) \approx 28^{\circ}\end{aligned}$ .

In other words, the angle of refraction in the glass would be approximately $28^{\circ}$ .

Beaker A contains 100 mL of water at a temperature of 25 °C. Beaker B contains 100 mL of water at a temperature of 60 °C. Which

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Only option A is correct. Beaker A has lower kinetic energy than beaker B.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Beaker 1 has a volume of 100 mL at 25 °C

Beaker B has a volume of 100 mL at 60 °C

Thermal energy = m*c*T

Thermal energy beaker A = 100 grams*4.184 * 25°C

Thermal energy beaker B = 100 grams *4.184*60°C

⇒ Since both beakers contain the same amount of water, the thermal energy depends on the temperature.

Since beaker B has a higher temperature, it has a higher thermal energy than beaker A

When we heat a substance, its temperature rises and causes an increase in the kinetic energy of its constituent molecules. Temperature is, in fact, a measure of the kinetic energy of molecules.

This means beaker B has a higher kinetic energy than beaker A

Potential energy doesn't depend on temperature. this means the potential energy of beaker A and beaker B is the same.

a. Beaker A has lower kinetic energy than beaker B. This is correct.

b. Beaker A has higher thermal energy than beaker B. This is false.

c. Beaker A has higher potential energy than beaker B. This is false.

d. Beaker A has lower potential energy than beaker B. This is false

e. Beaker A has higher kinetic energy than beaker B. This is false.

In complete sentences describe the energy flow between the Sun, the Earth, and space

agasfer [191]

Answer: The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.
Explanation:
The amount of incoming energy from the Sun decides the weather and climate of earth. If the energy that is incoming and outgoing on the earth, then climate is in equilibrium. The balance is depending on the scattering, absorption, reflection and transformation of energy.
The energy from sun passes through space and reaches the earth’s surface. On reaching surface, the solar energy warms the atmosphere releasing heat energy which gets transferred throughout the planets system by radiation, conduction and convection. Conduction happens in the atmosphere within first several millimeters close to the surface. This heated air expands as it is dense and rises causing transfer of heat to atmosphere through convection process. It results in formation of clouds.
The radiant energy from sun is transmitted via space in form of invisible waves. But much of the suns radiant energy, is transmitted back to atmosphere. The objects on earth like land, plants, animals absorb radiant energy as heat of which one third gets re-radiated back to atmosphere that is absorbed by carbon dioxide and water vapor. The atmosphere radiates heat energy back to earth increasing the earth temperature. This trapping of radiation is greenhouse effect.
The thermal energy obtained by convection currents are responsible for wind, cloud formation, and weather formation. The hydrosphere that comprises of 70% of earth’s surface absorbs solar energy.
On the basis of the above explanation is:
The energy from the sun passes through space in the form of invisible waves to the earth surface. It heats up the earth’s surface causing variation in climate.

A wire loop of radius 0.50 m lies so that an external magnetic field of magnitude 0.40 T is perpendicular to the loop. The field

vazorg [7]

The magnitude of the induced emf is given by:

ℰ = |Δφ/Δt|

ℰ = emf, Δφ = change in magnetic flux, Δt = elapsed time

The magnetic field is perpendicular to the loop, so the magnetic flux φ is given by:

φ = BA

B = magnetic field strength, A = loop area

The area of the loop A is given by:

A = πr²

r = loop radius

Make a substitution:

φ = B2πr²

Since the strength of the magnetic field is changing while the radius of the loop isn't changing, the change in magnetic flux Δφ is given by:

Δφ = ΔB2πr²

ΔB = change in magnetic field strength

Make another substitution:

ℰ = |ΔB2πr²/Δt|

Given values:

ΔB = 0.20T - 0.40T = -0.20T, r = 0.50m, Δt = 2.5s

Plug in and solve for ℰ:

ℰ = |(-0.20)(2π)(0.50)²/2.5|

ℰ = 0.13V

An automatic dryer spins wet clothes at an angular speed of 5.2 rad/s. Starting from rest, the dryer reaches its operating speed

Dvinal [7]

<h2>Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 rad/s

Final velocity, v = 5.2 rad/s

Time, t = ?

Acceleration, a = 3.2 rad/s²

Substituting

v = u + at

5.2 = 0 + 3.2 x t

t = 1.625 s

Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.
