An incident ray strikes a piece of diamond at an angle of 40.5 degrees. The index of refraction of air is 1.0003 and the index o
horrorfan [7]

The angle of refraction is 15.6 deg.

When a ray of light passes from medium 1 to medium 2, the refractive index of medium 2 with respect to 1 is the ratio of the absolute refractive index of medium 2 and medium 1

_1n_2 =\frac{n_2}{n_1}

When light passes from air into diamond, with the given values of refractive indices,

_an_d =\frac{n_d}{n_a}  =\frac{2.42}{1.0003} =2.4193

According to Snell's law,

_an_d=\frac{sini}{sinr} \\  sinr=\frac{sini}{_an_d} =\frac{sin(40.5)}{2.4193}=0.2684\\   r=arcsin(0.2684)=15.57 deg

The angle of refraction is 15.6 deg

Which point on the roller coaster's path represents the maximum potential energy?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Point A (Maximum height)

Explanation:

Potential energy is given as the product of mass, height and acceleration due to gravity hence expressed as mgh where m is the mass of roller coaster, h is the height and g is acceleration due to gravity. Since the mass and g are constant for a roller coaster, the main factor that will influence the magnitude of energy is the height. The higher the height, the higher the potential energy and vice versa. Using the attached image, the highest point is point A

A bus makes a 10-kilometer journey through town. It's top speed is 50 km/h and it's mean speed is 16kn/h. Explain why these spee
Maru [420]

Answer:

speed are different at different places

Explanation:

because it's top speed is 50km/h,so it's initial speed may be less. when it covers some distance it's speed changes again. then we have given a mean speed .mean speed means sum of all speed divided by sum of total time.so the mean speed and final speed differs from each other
