Answer:

explained

Explanation:

A Good scientific question must lead to a hypothesis and must help in answering the reason for any observation. It should be testable, meaning it can be performed as an experiment. At the same time the formed hypothesis can be falsifiable, that is it can fail. For example, the sound generated by a moving car. The question can be is there any correlation between speed of car and the noise it generate. It can result in a hypothesis that at higher speed more noise occur. It can very easily tested.

A long cylindrical capacitor is made of a central wire of radius a = 2.50 mm surrounded by a conducting shell of radius b = 7.50

asambeis [7]

Answer:

The capacitance per unit length is $5.06\times10^{-11}\ F/m$

(b) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius a= 2.50 mm

Radius b=7.50 mm

Dielectric constant = 3.68

Potential difference = 120 V

We need to calculate charge per length for the capacitance

Using formula of charge per length

$\lambda=\dfrac{4\pi\epsilon_{0}\Delta V}{2 ln(\dfrac{r_{2}}{r_{1}})}$

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{120}{9\times10^{9}\times2 ln(\dfrac{7.50\times10^{-3}}{2.50\times10^{-3}})}$

$\lambda=6.068\times10^{-9}\ C/m$

We know that,

$\lambda=\dfrac{Q}{L}$

We need to calculate the capacitance per unit length

Using formula of capacitance per unit length

$C=\dfrac{\dfrac{Q}{L}}{\Delta V}$

$C=\dfrac{6.068\times10^{-9}}{120}$

$C=5.06\times10^{-11}\ F/m$

Hence, The capacitance per unit length is $5.06\times10^{-11}\ F/m$

A beam of light has a wavelength of 650 nm in vacuum. (a) What is the speed of this light in a liquid whose index of refraction

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The speed of this light and wavelength in a liquid are $2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$ and 442 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength = 650 nm

Index refraction = 1.47

(a). We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of speed

$n = \dfrac{c}{v}$

Where, n = refraction index

c = speed of light in vacuum

v = speed of light in medium

Put the value into the formula

$1.47=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{v}$

$v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.47}$

$v= 2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$

(b). We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$n=\dfrac{\lambda_{0}}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{\lambda_{0}}{n}$

Where, $\lambda_{0}$ = wavelength in vacuum

$\lambda$ = wavelength in medium

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{650\times10^{-9}}{1.47}$

$\lambda=442\times10^{-9}\ m$

Hence, The speed of this light and wavelength in a liquid are $2.04\times10^{8}\ m/s$ and 442 nm.
