Is light fastest than speed and why.

Physics

Answer:

No

Explanation:

There is no limit to how fast the universe can expand, says physicist Charles Bennett of Johns Hopkins University. Einstein's theory that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum still holds true, because space itself is stretching, and space is nothing.

A very narrow beam of white light is incident at 40.80° onto the top surface of a rectangular block of flint glass 11.6 cm thick
DerKrebs [107]
Dispersion angle = 0.3875 degrees. 
Width at bottom of block = 0.09297 cm 
Thickness of rainbow = 0.07038 cm 
 Snell's law provides the formula that describes the refraction of light. It is:
 n1*sin(θ1) = n2*sin(θ2)
 where
 n1, n2 = indexes of refraction for the different mediums
 Î¸1, θ2 = angle of incident rays as measured from the normal to the surface. 
 Solving for θ2, we get
 n1*sin(θ1) = n2*sin(θ2)
 n1*sin(θ1)/n2 = sin(θ2)
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2 
 The index of refraction for air is 1.00029, So let's first calculate the angles of the red and violet rays.
 Red:
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.641) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.641) = θ2
 asin(0.398299876) = θ2
 23.47193844 = θ2 
 Violet:
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.667) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.667) = θ2
 asin(0.39208764) = θ2
 23.08446098 = θ2 
 So the dispersion angle is:
 23.47193844 - 23.08446098 = 0.38747746 degrees. 
 Now to determine the width of the beam at the bottom of the glass block, we need to calculate the difference in the length of the opposite side of two right triangles. Both triangles will have a height of 11.6 cm and one of them will have an angle of 23.47193844 degrees, while the other will have an angle of 23.08446098 degrees. The idea trig function to use will be tangent, where
 tan(θ) = X/11.6
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 So for Red:
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 11.6*tan(23.47193844) = X
 11.6*0.434230136 = X
 5.037069579 = X 
 And violet:
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 11.6*tan(23.08446098) = X
 11.6*0.426215635 = X
 4.944101361 = X 
 So the width as measured from the bottom of the block is: 5.037069579 cm - 4.944101361 cm = 0.092968218 cm 
 The actual width of the beam after it exits the flint glass block will be thinner. The beam will exit at an angle of 40.80 degrees and we need to calculate the length of the sides of a 40.80/49.20/90 right triangle. If you draw the beams, you'll realize that:
 cos(θ) = X/0.092968218
 0.092968218*cos(θ) = X 
 0.092968218*cos(40.80) = X
 0.092968218*0.756995056 = X
 0.070376481 = X 
 So the distance between the red and violet rays is 0.07038 cm.

A 35-gram stainless steel ball on a track is moving at a velocity of 9 m/s. On the same track, a 75-gram stainless steel ball is
elena-s [515]

Answer:

4.2 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(35 g) (9 m/s) + (75 g) (-7 m/s) = (35 g) (-15 m/s) + (75 g) v

315 g m/s − 525 g m/s = -525 g m/s + (75 g) v

315 g m/s = (75 g) v

v = 4.2 m/s

Using a force of 28.0 Newton, a student pulls a 70.0 Newton weight along the tabletop for a distance of 15.0 meters in 3.0 secon
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

140 watt

Explanation:

We are given that

Force applied by student ,F=28 N

Weight pulled  by students=70 N

Displacement,s=15 m

Time=3 s

We have to find the power developed  by the student.

Work done=w=F\times s

Work done by the student=28\times 15=420 J

Power=\frac{work\;done}{time}

Using the formula

Power=\frac{420}{3}=140watt

Hence, the power developed by the students=140 watt

A positron is an elementary particle identical to an electron except that its charge is . An electron and a positron can rotate
denis23 [38]

Explanation:

According to the energy conservation,

          F_{centripetal} = F_{electric}

            \frac{mv^{2}}{r} = \frac{kq^{2}}{d^{2}}

           v^{2} = \frac{kq^{2}r}{d^{2}m}

                 = \frac{9 \times 10^{9} N.m^{2}/C^{2} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C \times 0.75 \times 10^{-9} m}{(1.50 \times 10^{-9}m)^{2} \times 9.11 \times 10^{-31} kg}

                = 8.430 \times 10^{10} m^{2}/s^{2}

             v = \sqrt{8.430 \times 10^{10} m^{2}/s^{2}}

                = 2.903 \times 10^{5} m/s

Formula for distance from the orbit is as follows.

               S = 2 \pi r

                  = 2 \times 3.14 \times 0.75 \times 10^{-9} m

                  = 4.71 \times 10^{-9} m

Now, relation between time and distance is as follows.

                T = \frac{S}{v}

       \frac{1}{f} = \frac{S}{v}

or,           f = \frac{v}{S}          

                = \frac{2.903 \times 10^{5} m/s}{4.71 \times 10^{-9} m}      

                = 6.164 \times 10^{13} Hz

Thus, we can conclude that the orbital frequency for an electron and a positron that is 1.50 apart is 6.164 \times 10^{13} Hz.
