Answer:

The answer is The bending of light in a medium.

Explanation:

The refractive index is the dimensionless number that expresses the relationship between the speed of light in the air and the speed of light in the densest medium, that is, the refractive index directly measures the ratio of the velocity of the light in a vacuum and the speed of light in a medium. This phenomenon occurs because the light rays follow a rectilinear path, but when they pass from one means of transport to another, it is refracted, because the light has a velocity distance according to the density of the material it passes through. The refractive index has variables that affect the measurement, which are temperature, wavelength and pressure.

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in term
MArishka [77]

Answer:

N_{y} =NcosФ,

N_{x} =-Nsin Ф

Explanation:

Now find the components NxNxN_x and NyNyN_y of N⃗ N→N_vec in the tilted coordinate system of Part B. Express your answer in terms of the length of the vector NNN and the angle θθtheta, with the components separated by a comma.

Vectors are quantities that  have both magnitude and direction while scalar quantities have only magnitude but no direction.

This a vector quantity

from the diagram the horizontal component of the length of the vector will be

N_{y} =NcosФ

the vertical component will be

N_{x} =-Nsin Ф

this is in the opposite direction because the x can be extrapolated to the negative axis

When jumping, a flea rapidly extends its legs, reaching a takeoff speed of 1.0 m/s over a distance of 0.50 mm find acceleration.
Anna [14]

Solution:

In this question we have given,

initial velocity,u = 0

final velocity, v = 1m/s

displacement =.5mm             (Because 1mm=.001m)

We have to find

1.acceleration

2. Time

1. we know third equation of motion is given as,

v^{2} =u^{2} + 2as............(1)

Put values of v,u and s in equation (1)

[tex]s=1^{2} = 0^{2} +2X.0005Xa\\1= .001a\\therefore, a = 1/.001\\ a= 1000m/s^{2}

2. We know First equation of motion is given as

v=u+at......................(2)

put values of v, u and a in equation(2)

1= 0 + 1000t\\t= 1/1000\\t= 0.001s

A pendulum is swinging back and forth with no non-conservative forces acting on it. At the highest points of its trajectory, the
Vesna [10]

Answer:

K = U ( b )

Explanation:

The expression that describes the kinetic and potential energies at the point mid-way between to the highest and lowest points is  K = U

this is because at the midpoint between the highest point and the lowest point the height is expressed as( h/2) therefore potential energy at that point is expressed as m*g*h/2 therefore the remaining energy at this point will be considered the kinetic energy which will be = m*g*h/2 as well hence at midpoint Kinetic energy = potential energy
