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.

Question 30
stellarik [79]

Answer: 0.69\°

Explanation:

The angular diameter \delta of a spherical object is given by the following formula:

\delta=2 sin^{-1}(\frac{d}{2D})

Where:

d=16 m is the actual diameter

D=1338 m is the distance to the spherical object

Hence:

\delta=2 sin^{-1}(\frac{16 m}{2(1338 m)})

\delta=0.685\° \approx 0.69\° This is the angular diameter

An airliner of mass 1.70×105kg1.70×105kg lands at a speed of 75.0 m/sm/s. As it travels along the runway, the combined effects o
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

The airliner travels 1.65 km along the runway before coming to a halt.

Explanation:

Given

Resistive forces = (2.90 × 10⁵) N = 290000 N

Mass of the airliner = (1.70 × 10⁵) kg = 170000 kg

Velocity of airliner = 75 m/s

Let the distance over moved by the airliner be equal to d

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by the resistive forces in stopping the airliner is equal to the travelling kinetic energy of the airliner.

Work done by the resistive forces = (290000) × d = (290,000d) J

Kinetic energy of the airliner = (1/2)(170000)(75²) = 478,125,000 J

290000d = 478,125,000

d = (478,125,000/290,000)

d = 1648.7 m = 1.65 km

Hope this helps!!!
