1) D

2) D.) Greater than \theta_c

Explanation:

1)

The phenomenon of total internal reflection occurs when a ray of light hitting the interface between two mediums is totally reflected back into the original medium, therefore no refraction into the second medium occurs.

This phenomenon occurs only if two conditions are satisfied:

  • The index of refraction of the first medium is larger than the index of refraction of the 2nd medium
  • The angle of incidence is greater than a certain angle called critical angle

In picture 1, we have 4 different diagrams. In the diagrams:

  • The red arrow represents the incident ray
  • The green arrow represents the refracted ray
  • The blue arrow represents the reflected ray

Total internal reflection occurs when there is no refraction, therefore when there is no green arrow: this occurs only in figure D, so this is the correct option. (in figure C, there is a refracted ray but it is parallel to the interface: this condition occurs when the angle of incidence is exactly equal to the critical angle, however in this problem, the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle, so the correct option is D)

2)

As we stated in problem 1), total internal reflection occurs when the angle of incidence is equal or greater than the critical angle. Therefore in this case, the angle of incidence must be

D.) Greater than \theta_c

A student shakes a rope such that 20 complete vibrations are made in 4.00 seconds. Determine the vibrational frequency of the ro
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The vibrational frequency of the rope is 5 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

number of complete oscillation of the rope, n = 20

time taken to make the oscillations, t = 4.00 s

The vibrational frequency of the rope is calculated as follows;

Frequency = \frac{number \ of \ complete \ vibrations}{time \ taken} \\\\Frequency = \frac{20 }{4 \ s} \\\\Frequency = 5 \ Hz

Therefore, the vibrational frequency of the rope is 5 Hz.

Air is being blown into a spherical balloon at the rate of 1.68 in.3/s. Determine the rate at which the radius of the balloon is
NISA [10]

Answer: 0.006in/s

Explanation:

Let the rate at which air is being blown into a spherical balloon be dV/dt which is 1.68in³/s

Also let the rate at which the radius of the balloon is increasing be dr/dt

Given r = 4.7in and Π = 3.14

Applying the chain rule method

dV/dt = dV/dr × dr/dt

If the volume of the sphere is 4/3Πr³

V = 4/3Πr³

dV/dr = 4Πr²

If r = 4.7in

dV/dr = 4Π(4.7)²

dV/dr = 277.45in²

Therefore;

1.68 = 277.45 × dr/dt

dr/dt = 1.68/277.45

dr/dt = 0.006in/s
