The California current is an ocean current that moves cold water from the north along the west coast of the United States. The main effect of this current is to make the climate of the west coast cooler.

<span>The movement of Alaskan and northern water currents southward down the west coast results in much cooler ocean temperatures than at comparable latitudes on the east coast of the United States, where waters currents come from the Caribbean and Tropical Atlantic.</span>

A space vehicle is traveling at 3760 km/h relative to Earth when the exhausted rocket motor is disengaged and sent backward. The
almond37 [142]

Answer:

3688 km/h

Explanation:

Given:-

- The speed of vehicle relative to earth, vs_e = 3760 km/h

- The relative speed of command and motor, v_c/m = 90 km/h

- The mass of command = m

- The mass of motor = 4m

Find:-

What is the speed of the command module relative to Earth just after the separation?

Solution:-

- Consider the space vehicle as a system that detaches itself into two parts ( command and motor ). We will assume that the gravitational pull due to Earth on the space vehicle is negligible. With that assumption we have our system in isolation. We will apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum on the system as follows:

             Initial momentum = Final momentum

                                       Pi = Pf

                  M*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*vm_e

Where,

                  M = m + 4m = 5m

                  vc_e = Velocity of command relative to earth

                  vm_e = Velocity of motor relative to earth  

- We will develop a relation of velocities of command and motor in the frame of earth as follows:

                  vm_e =  v_c/m + vc_e        

- Substituting (vm_e) from Equation 2 into Equation 1, we have:

                  5m*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m + vc_e)

                  5m*vs_e = 5m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m)

- Solve for vc_e:

                  5m*vs_e -  4m*(v_c/m) = 5m*vc_e

                   vs_e - 0.8*(v_c/m) = vc_e

- Plug in values and evaluate vc_e:

                  vc_e = 3760 - 0.8*(90)

                  vc_e = 3,688 km/h

Light rays in a material with index of refrection 1.35 1.35 can undergo total internal reflection when they strike the interface
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

1.30

Explanation:

To calculate the critical angle we have ti use the formula:

sin\theta_c=\frac{n_2}{n_1}

where theta_c is the critical angle, n1 is the index of refraction of the material where the light is totally reflected, and n2 is the refractive index of the other material.

By taking n_2 and replacing we obtain:

n_2=n_1sin\theta_c=(1.35)sin75.1\°=1.30

hope this helps!!
