When light travels from a medium with higher refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, there is a critical angle after which all the light is reflected (so, there is no refraction).

The value of this critical angle can be derived by Snell's law, and it is equal to
\theta_C = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )
where n2 is the refractive index of the second medium and n1 is the refractive index of the first medium.

In our problem, n1=1.47 and n2=1.33, so the critical angle is
\theta_C = \arcsin( \frac{1.33}{1.47} )=\arcsin (0.91)=65^{\circ}

How does an annular eclipse differ from a total eclipse.
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Solar eclipses may be classified as either total, in which the Moon completely covers the Sun, or annular, in which the Moon obscures all but an outer ring of the Sun.

Write some harms of friction.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Friction produces unnecessary heat leading to the wastage of energy. The force of friction acts in the opposite direction of motion, so friction slows down the motion of moving objects. Forest fires are caused due to the friction between tree branches. However, friction can also cause problems in a car. Friction between moving engine parts increases their temperature and causes the parts to wear down. Friction can be both harmful and helpful, so it may be necessary to decrease or increase friction.

A compact car has a mass of 1380 kg . Assume that the car has one spring on each wheel, that the springs are identical, and that
astraxan [27]

Answer:

A) k=34867.3384\ N.m^{-1}

B) \omega'\approx84\ Hz

Explanation:

Given:

mass of car, m=1380\ kg

A)

frequency of spring oscillation, f=1.6\ Hz

We knkow the formula for spring oscillation frequency:

\omega=2\pi.f

\Rightarrow \sqrt{\frac{k_{eq}}{m} } =2\pi.f

\sqrt{\frac{k_{eq}}{1380} } =2\times \pi\times 1.6

k_{eq}=139469.3537\ N.m^{-1}

Now as we know that the springs are in parallel and their stiffness constant gets added up in parallel.

<u>So, the stiffness of each spring is (as they are identical):</u>

k=\frac{k_{eq}}{4}

k=\frac{139469.3537}{4}

k=34867.3384\ N.m^{-1}

B)

given that 4 passengers of mass 70 kg each are in the car, then the oscillation frequency:

\omega'=\sqrt{\frac{k_{eq}}{(m+70\times 4)} }

\omega'=\sqrt{\frac{139469.3537}{(1380+280)} }

\omega'\approx84\ Hz
