Answer:

D. infinitely extended in all directions

Explanation:

A semi infinite solid is infinitely extended in every direction. It has a single surface and can extend when heat is applied.

The body of a semi infinite solid is idealised, that is, when there is heat present, it expands in all directions to infinity. It can be used for a thick wall because its shape can be changed when subjected to different levels of heat near its surface.

It is also expands as heat is applied because its thickness is negligible.

This idealized body is used for earth, thick wall, steel piece of any shaped quenched rapidly etc indetermining variation of temperature near its surface & other surface being too far to have any impact on the region in short period of time since heat doesn’t have sufficient time to penetrate deep into body thus thickness can be neglected

Calculate the drop voltage for a battery of internal resistance 2 ohm and emf of 24 volt

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The drop voltage is 0.3 V

Explanation:

Electromotive Force EMF

When connecting a battery of internal resistance Ri and EMF ε to an external resistance Re, the current through the circuit is:

$\displaystyle i=\frac{\varepsilon }{R_e+R_i}$

The battery has an internal resistance of Ro=2 Ω, ε=24 V and is connected to an external resistance of Re=158 Ω. Thus, the current is:

$\displaystyle i=\frac{24 }{158+2}$

$\displaystyle i=\frac{24 }{160}$

i = 0.15 A

The drop voltage is the voltage of the internal resistance:

$V_i = i.R_i$

$V_i = 0.15*2$

$\boxed{V_i = 0.3\ V}$

The drop voltage is 0.3 V

A sound wave propagates through a region filled with an ideal gas at constant temperature T. It approaches an acoustically perme

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

The answer is e.2

Explanation:

We should make use of Snell's refractive law. The arriving wave has a certain velocity at T in a medium, then instantly it reaches a medium (same composition) at T' where velocity would either decrease or increase.

When the incidence angle is 30 °, and we want to make the refraction angle 90 ° such that no sound passes through the barrier (this would be named total internal refraction), so we want the second medium to be "faster" than in the first.

Light incident on a lake surface is partly reflected and partly refracted.What is the differences between the reflected ray and

iren2701 [21]

Answer: As per the question, a ray of light is incident on a surface and it is partly reflected and refracted. The incident light is an unpolarised light. The reflected light is partially polarised.

If the angle of incidence becomes equal to the Brester angle (polarising angle), then the reflected light is completely plane polarised.
