When a liquid is introduced into the air space between the lens and the plate in a Newton's-rings apparatus, the diameter of the

tenth ring changes from 1.52 cm to 1.21 cm. Find the index of refraction of the liquid.

Answer:

n_l=1.58

Explanation:

Newton's ring equation relates the initial and final diameter of the ring, to the index of refraction of the air and the index of refraction of the liquid between the lens and the plates, as follows:

n_ld_f^2=n_ad_i^2

Solving for :

n_l=n_a\frac{d_i^2}{d_f^2}\\

Recall that the refractive index of the air is 1. So, replacing the given diameters:

n_l=\frac{(1.52cm)^2}{(1.21cm)^2}\\\\n_l=1.58

RoseWind [281]

Use the right equation. To calculate the normal force of an object at an angle, you need to use the formula: N = m * g * cos (x) For this equation, N refers to the normal force, m refers to the object's mass, g refers to the acceleration of gravity, and x refers to the angle of incline.

With a thunderstorm brewing, an electric field of magnitude 2.0 × 102 newtons/coulomb exists at a certain point in the earth’s a
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field, E=2\times 10^2\ N/C

We need to find the magnitude of the force on the electron as a result of the electric field.

We know that, the electric force is given by :

F=qE\\\\=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2\times 10^2\\\\F=3.2\times 10^{-17}\ N

So, the required force on the electron is equal to 3.2\times 10^{-17}\ N.

professor190 [17]

Answer:

A. polymerization

Explanation:

Synthetic plastics are made by linking many simple carbon molecules together to form much larger molecules. This process is called polymerization.

Synthetic or artifical giant molecules consists of synthetic polymers such as plastics, elastomers etc. They are made up of simple monomers which links to form the complex and giant structure.

Monomers are the simplest unit of polymers. Polymers have very great sizes. The size mkaes their structure quite complex. This makes the molecules more disposed in a regular pattern with respect to one another.

The complexity of structure and the attendant effects accounts for the properties and uses that makes synthetic molecules very unique. For example, plastics can be extruded as sheets, pipes and or moulded into other objects.

The original kinetic energy will be 0 J and the final kinetic energy will be 7500 J and the amount of work utilized will be similar to the final kinetic energy i.e., 7500 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As it is known that the kinetic energy is defined as the energy exhibited by the moving objects. So the kinetic energy is equal to the product of mass and square of the velocity attained by the car. Thus,

                  \text {Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

So the initial kinetic energy will be the energy exerted by the car at the initial state when the initial velocity is zero. Thus the initial kinetic energy will be zero.  

The final kinetic energy is

\text {Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \times 600 \times 5 \times 5 = 7500 J

As the work done is the energy required to start the car from zero velocity to 5 m/s velocity.  

                       Work done = Final Kinetic energy - Initial Kinetic energy

Thus the work utilized for moving the car is  

                         Work done = 7500 J - 0 J = 7500 J

Thus, the initial kinetic energy of the car is zero, the final kinetic energy is 7500 J and the work utilized by the car is also 7500 J.
