For total internal reflection to happen, light must travel from a medium object of higher density to a medium of lower density. To make sure that total internal reflection will happen in water, then the light must originate from glass or diamond before entering water.

An x-ray beam of wavelength 1.4×10−10m makes an angle of 20° with a set of planes in a crystal(the Bragg angle)causing first ord
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Second order line appears at 43.33° Bragg angle.

Explanation:

When there is a scattering of x- rays from the crystal lattice and interference occurs, this is known as Bragg's law.

The Bragg's diffraction equation is :

n\lambda=2d\sin\theta      .....(1)

Here n is order of constructive interference, λ is wavelength of x-ray beam, d is the inter spacing distance of lattice and θ is the Bragg's angle or scattering angle.

Given :

Wavelength, λ = 1.4 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

Bragg's angle, θ = 20°

Order of constructive interference, n =1

Substitute these value in equation (1).

1\times1.4\times10^{-10} =2d\sin20

d = 2.04 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

For second order constructive interference, let the Bragg's angle be θ₁.

Substitute 2 for n, 2.04 x 10⁻¹⁰ m for d and 1.4 x 10⁻¹⁰ m for λ in equation (1).

2\times1.4\times10^{-10} =2\times2.04\times10^{-10} \sin\theta_{1}

\sin\theta_{1} =0.68

<em>θ₁ </em>= 43.33°

The quadriceps muscles pull on the patella simultaneously. Below are the forces from each
Nostrana [21]

Based on the calculation of the resultant of vector forces:

  1. the resultant force due to the quadriceps is 1795 N
  2. the resultant force due to the quadriceps is 1975 N. Training and strengthening the vastus medialis results in a greater force of muscle contraction.

<h3>What is the resultant force due to the quadriceps?</h3>

The resultant of more than two vector forces is given by:

  • F = √Fₓ² + Fₙ²

where:

  • Fₓ is the sum of the horizontal components of the forces
  • Fₙ is the sum of the vertical components of the forces
  • Fx = F₁cosθ + F₂cosθ + F₃cosθ + F₄cosθ
  • Fₙ = F₁sinθ + F₂sinθ + F₃sinθ + F₄sinθ
  • F₁ = 680N, θ = 90 = 30 = 120°
  • F₂ = 220 N, θ = 90 + 16 = 106°
  • F₃ = 600 N, θ = 90 + 15 = 105°
  • F₄ = 480 N, θ = 90 - 35 = 55°

then:

Fx = 680 * cos 120 + 220 * cos 106 + 600 * cos 105 + 480 * cos 55

Fx = -280.6 N

Fₙ = 680 * sin 120 + 220 * sin 106 + 600 * sin 105 + 480 * sin 55

Fₙ = 1773.1 N

then:

F = √(-280.6)² + ( 1773.1)²

F = 1795.16 N

F ≈ 1795 N

Therefore, the resultant force due to the quadriceps is 1795 N

<h3>What would happen if the vastus medialis was trained and strengthened to contract with 720N of force?</h3>

From the new information provided:

  • F₁ = 680N, θ = 90 = 30 = 120°
  • F₂ = 220 N, θ = 90 + 16 = 106°
  • F₃ = 600 N, θ = 90 + 15 = 105°
  • F₄ = 720 N, θ = 90 - 35 = 55°

then:

Fx = 680 * cos 120 + 220 * cos 106 + 600 * cos 105 + 720 * cos 55

Fx = -142.95 N

Fₙ = 680 * sin 120 + 220 * sin 106 + 600 * sin 105 + 720 * sin 55

Fₙ = 1969.72 N

then:

F = √(-142.95)² + ( 1969.72)²

F = 1974.9 N

F ≈ 1975 N

Therefore, the resultant force due to the quadriceps is 1975 N.

Training and strengthening the vastus medialis results in a greater force of muscle contraction.

The Huka Falls on the Waikato River is one of New Zealand's most visited natural tourist attractions. On average, the river has
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

(a) V = 0.75 m/s

(b) V = 0.125 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of the flow of the river can be given by following formula:

V = Q/A

V = Q/w d

where,

V = Speed of Flow of River

Q = Volume Flow Rate of River

w = width of river

d = depth of river

A = Area of Cross-Section of River = w d

(a)

Here,

Q = (300,000 L/s)(0.001 m³/1 L) = 300 m³/s

w = 20 m

d = 20 m

Therefore,

V = (300 m³/s)/(20 m)(20 m)

<u>V = 0.75 m/s</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Here,

Q = (300,000 L/s)(0.001 m³/1 L) = 300 m³/s

w = 60 m

d = 40 m

Therefore,

V = (300 m³/s)/(60 m)(40 m)

<u>V = 0.125 m/s</u>

A string of mass 60.0 g and length 2.0 m is fixed at both ends and with 500 N in tension. a. If a wave is sent along this string
Darya [45]

Answer:

a

The  speed of  wave is   v_1  = 129.1 \ m/s

b

The new speed of the two waves is v =  129.1 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the string is  m  =  60 \ g  =  60 *10^{-3} \ kg

    The length is  l  =  2.0 \ m

    The tension is  T  = 500 \ N

Now the velocity of the first wave is mathematically represented as

     v_1  = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }

Where  \mu is the linear density which is mathematically represented as

      \mu  =  \frac{m}{l}

substituting values    

     \mu  =  \frac{ 60 *10^{-3}}{2.0 }

     \mu  =  0.03\ kg/m

So

   v_1  = \sqrt{ \frac{500}{0.03} }

   v_1  = 129.1 \ m/s

Now given that the Tension, mass and length are constant the velocity of the second wave will same as that of first wave (reference PHYS 1100 )
