When light moves from a medium with higher refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, the critical angle is the angle above which there is no refracted light, and all the light is reflected. The value of this angle is given by
where n2 and n1 are the refractive indices of the second and first medium, respectively.
In the first part of the problem, light moves from glass to air (
) and the critical angle is
. This means that we can find the refractive index of glass by re-arranging the previous formula:
Now the glass is put into water, whose refractive index is
. If light moves from glass to water, the new critical angle will be
The most important function of a landfill is to store and get rid of solid waste which it provides an area where waste is disposed of and can be managed properly in order to reduce health and environmental risk<span />
Given that
Work = 600,000 J ,
distance(S) = 500 m ,
mass (m) = 250 Kg ,
Determine the velocity of car (v) = ?
We know that,
Work = Force × distance
=> Force = Work ÷ distance
= 600,000 ÷ 500
= 500 N .
Also Force F = m.a ; from Newtons II law
500 = 250 × a
a = 2 m/s.
<em>Final Velocity from the given formula </em>
V² = u² + 2.a.s
= 0 + 2 × 2 × 500
= \sqrt{2000}
<em> v = 44.7 m/s</em>
Answer:
the quantity which has both magnitude and direction is called vector quantity

Answer:The more precisely you know the position of a particle, the less well you can know the momentum of the particle</h2>
The Heisenberg uncertainty principle was enunciated in 1927. It postulates that the fact that each particle has a wave associated with it, imposes <u>restrictions on the ability to determine its position and speed at the same time. </u>
In other words:
It is impossible to measure simultaneously (according to quantum physics), and with absolute precision, the value of the position and the momentum (linear momentum) of a particle.
<h2>So, the greater certainty is seeked in determining the position of a particle, the less is known its linear momentum and, therefore, its mass and velocity. </h2><h2 />
In fact, even with the most precise devices, the uncertainty in the measurement continues to exist. Thus, in general, the greater the precision in the measurement of one of these magnitudes, the greater the uncertainty in the measure of the other complementary variable.
