A light beam is traveling through an unknown substance. When it exits that substance and enters into air, the angle of reflectio
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

0.79

Explanation:

Using Snell's law, we have that:

n(1) * sin θ1 = n(2) * sinθ2

Where n(1) = refractive index of air = 1.0003

θ1 = angle of incidence

n(2) = refractive index of second substance

θ2 = angle of refraction

The angle of reflection through the unknown substance is the same as the angle of incidence of air. This means that θ1 = 32°

=> 1.0003 * sin32 = n(2) * sin42

n(2) = (1.0003 * sin32) / sin42

n(2) = 0.79

If a beaker of water is placed under a broiler so that the heating coil is above the beaker. It is observed that only the surfac
bija089 [108]

Answer:

a

Explanation:

The most reasonable conclusion of the above phenomenon is that water is a poor conductor of heat. Basically water is an insulator. The heat from surface to the bottom of the beaker will take a lot of time. Moreover, no convection current is formed so, heat might not even reach the bottom surface. Hydrogen bonding also play a vital role in determining the thermal properties of water.

hence option A is correct

Each of the four expansion models (recollapsing, critical, coasting, and accelerating) predict different ages for the universe,
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

This is because the age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

Explanation:

The age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

This is due to the fact that the expansion rate in the coasting model is constant and never changes. Because the cosmos is growing faster now than during the old days, recollapsing and critical models give shorter ages. According to the accelerating model, the universe is growing at a slower rate currently than in the past, implying an older age.

Gold is the most ductile of all metals. For example, one gram of gold can be drawn into a wire 2.05 km long. The density of gold
arsen [322]

Answer:

Resistance of gold wire, R=1977 \times 10^3 ohm

Explanation:

In this question we have given

Density of gold, d=19.3\times 10^3 \frac{kg}{m^3}

resistivity of gold, r=2.44\times 10^{-8} ohm.m

Length of wire, L= 2.05 km

Temperature, T= 20^oC

We know that relation between volume and density is given as

Density= \frac{mass}{Volume}

Therefore, volume occupied by one gram gold is given as,

V=\frac{.001 kg}{19.3\times 10^3 Kg m^{-3}} = 5.181\times 10^{-8} m^3.........(1)

We Know that Volume of gold wire which is cylindrical in shape is given by following formula

V=\pi \times r^2 \times L......(2)

Here,

A= \pi \times r^2...........(3)

here A is the cross sectional area of cylendrical gold wire  

From equation 2 and 3

we got

V=A \times L...............(4)

on comparing equation 1 and equation 4, we got,

A \times L=5.181\times 10^{-8} m^3

A=\frac{5.181\times 10^{-8} m^3}{2050 m}

A=2.53\times 10^{-11}m^2

we know that resistance and resistivity are related by following formula,

Resistance = resistivity\times \frac{L}{A}................(5)

Put values of resistivity, A and L in equation 5, we got

R = \frac{2.44 \times 10^{-8} ohm.m \times 2050 m}{2.53\times 10^{-11} m^2}

R=1977 \times 10^3 ohm

Therefore resistance of gold wire, R=1977 \times 10^3 ohm
