Answer:

n = 1.76

Explanation:

According to the rule of ( n1 sin theta1 = n2 sin theta2 )

we know both angles so we insert them to the law and apply n1 = 1

so 1/2 = n2 sin 62 and we get the final answer

Answer:

1.38*10^18 kg

Explanation:

According to the Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G*\frac{m_a*m_p}{r^2}

where:

G= Gravitational constant (6.674×10−11 N · (m/kg)2)

ma= mass of the astronaut

mp= mass of the planet

F=m_a.a\\(v_f )^2=(v_o)^2+2.a.\Delta y\\\\a=\frac{(v_f)^2-(v_o)^2}{2.\Delta y}\\\\a=\frac{(0)^2-(4.29m/s)^2}{2.0.64m}=14.38m/s^2\\\\F=m_a*14.38m/s^2

so:

m_a*14.38m/s^2=(6.674*10^{-11}N.(m/kg)^2)*\frac{m_a.m_p}{(2.530*10^3m)^2}\\m_p=\frac{14.38m/s^2(2.530*10^3m)^2}{(6.674*10^{-11}N.(m/kg)^2)}\\\\m_p=1.38*10^{18}kg

A circuit is set up such that it has a current of 8 A. What would be the new current if the resistance was increased by a factor
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

The relationship between current, voltage and resistance in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:

V=RI

where

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

I is the current

The equation can also be rewritten as

I=\frac{V}{R}

from which we see that the current is inversely proportional to the resistance, R.

In this problem, the initial current is I = 8 A. Then the resistance is doubled:

R ' = 2R

So the new current is

I'=\frac{V}{R'}=\frac{V}{2R}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{V}{R})=\frac{I}{2}=4 A

so the current is halved.
