<span>The line that is drawn perpendicular to the point at which a wave intersects a boundary is know as the Normal .

When the normal is drawn, the incident ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence and the reflected ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence. These angles are always equal.

The refracted ray makes an angle with the normal known as angle of refraction. The sin of angle of incidence to the sin of angle of refraction is called the refractive index( </span>μ= <span>sin i / sin r) .

hope all of it helps you!</span>

Answer:

The range of wavelengths of the sound is 7692.30 m and 3846.15 m

Explanation:

A bat emits pulses of sound at a frequency between 39 kHz and 78 kHz. It is required to find the range of wavelengths of this sound.

Bat uses ultrasonic waves. It moves with the speed of light.

If f = 39 kHz,

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{39\times 10^3}\\\\\lambda=7692.30\ m$

If f = 78 kHz,

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{78\times 10^3}\\\\\lambda=3846.15\ m$

So, the range of wavelengths of the sound is 7692.30 m and 3846.15 m.

To calibrate the calorimeter electrically, a constant voltage of 3.6 V is applied and a current of 2.6 A flows for a period of 3

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

$372.3 J/^{\circ}C$

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the total energy supplied to the calorimeter.

We know that:

V = 3.6 V is the voltage applied

I = 2.6 A is the current

So, the power delivered is

$P=VI=(3.6)(2.6)=9.36 W$

Then, this power is delivered for a time of

t = 350 s

Therefore, the energy supplied is

$E=Pt=(9.36)(350)=3276 J$

Finally, the change in temperature of an object is related to the energy supplied by

$E=C\Delta T$

where in this problem:

E = 3276 J is the energy supplied

C is the heat capacity of the object

$\Delta T =29.1^{\circ}-20.3^{\circ}=8.8^{\circ}C$ is the change in temperature

Solving for C, we find:

$C=\frac{E}{\Delta T}=\frac{3276}{8.8}=372.3 J/^{\circ}C$
