Answer:

33.61°

Explanation:

Refractive index is equal to velocity of the light 'c' in empty space divided by the velocity 'v' in the substance.

Or ,

n = c/v.

v is the velocity in the medium  (2.3 × 10⁸ m/s)

c is the speed of light in air = 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s

So,  

n = 3.0 × 10⁸ /  2.3 × 10⁸

n = 1.31

Using Snell's law as:

n_i\times {sin\theta_i}={n_r}\times{sin\theta_r}

Where,  

{\theta_i}  is the angle of incidence  ( 25.0° )

{\theta_r} is the angle of refraction  ( ? )

{n_r} is the refractive index of the refraction medium  (air, n=1)

{n_i} is the refractive index of the incidence medium (glass, n=1.31)

Hence,  

1.31\times {sin25.0^0}={1}\times{sin\theta_r}

Angle of refraction = sin^{-1}0.5536 = 33.61°

The force P is applied to the 45-kg block when it is at rest. Determine the magnitude and direction of the friction force exerte
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Check attachment for free body diagram of the question.

I used the free body diagram and the angles given in the diagram missing in the question above, but I used the data given in the above question.

Explanation:

Let frictional force be Fr acting down the plane

Let analyze the structure before inserting values

Using Newton's second law along the y-axis

ΣFy = Fnet = m•ay

Since the body is not moving in the y-direction, then ay = 0

N+PSinβ — WCosθ = 0

N+PSin20—441.45Cos15 = 0

N+PSin20—426.41 = 0

N = 426.41 — PSin20 , equation 1

The maximum Frictional force to be overcome is given as

Fr(max) = μsN

Fr(max) = 0.25(426.41 — PSin20)

Fr(max)= 106.6 —0.25•PSin20

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551P, equation 2

This is the maximum force that must be overcome before the body starts to move

Using Newton's law of motion in the x direction

Note, we took the upward direction up the plane as the direction of motion since the force want to move the block upward

Fnetx = ΣFx

Fnetx = P•Cosβ —W•Sinθ — Fr

Fnetx = P•Cos20—441.45•Sin15—Fr

Fnetx = 0.9397P — 114.256 — Fr

Equation 3

When Fnetx is positive, then, the body is moving up the plane, if Fnetx is negative, then, the maximum frictional force has not yet being overcome and the object is still i.e. not moving

a. When P = 0

From equation 2

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551P

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551(0)

Fr(max)= 106.6 N

So, 106.6N is the maximum force to be overcome

So, here the only force acting on the body is the weight and it acting down the plane, trying to move the body downward.

Wx = WSinθ

Wx = 441.45× Sin15

Wx = 114.256 N.

Since the force trying to move the body downward is greater than the maximum static frictional force, then the body is not in equilibrium, it is moving downward.

So, finding the magnitude of frictional force

From equation 1

N = 426.41 — PSin20 , equation 1

N = 426.41 N, since P=0

Then, using law of kinetic friction

Fr = μk • N

Fr = 0.22 × 426.41

Fr = 93.81 N.

b. Now, when P = 190N

From equation 2

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551(190)

Fr(max) = 106.6 —16.2469

Fr(max)= 90.353 N

So, 90.353 N is the maximum force to be overcome

Now the force acting on the x axis is the horizontal component of P and the horizontal component of the weight

Fnetx = P•Cosβ —W•Sinθ

Fnetx = 190Cos20 — 441.45Sin15

Fnetx = 64.29N

So the force moving the body up the incline plane is 64.29N

Fnetx < Fr(max)

Then, the frictional force has not being overcome yet.

Then, the body is in equilibrium.

Then, applying equation 3.

Fnetx = 0.9397P — 114.256 — Fr

Fnetx = 0, since the body is not moving

0 = 0.9397(190) —114.246 — Fr

Fr = 64.297 N

Fr ≈ 64.3N

c. When, P = 268N

From equation 2

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551(268)

Fr(max) = 106.6 —16.2469

Fr(max)= 83.68 N

So, 83.68 N is the maximum force to be overcome

Now the force acting on the x axis is the horizontal component of P and the horizontal component of the weight

Fnetx = P•Cosβ —W•Sinθ

Fnetx = 268Cos20 — 441.45Sin15

Fnetx = 137.58 N

So the force moving the body up the incline plane is 137.58 N

Fnetx > Fr(max)

Then, the frictional force has being overcome.

Then, the body is not equilibrium.

So, finding the magnitude of frictional force

From equation 1

N = 426.41 — 268Sin20 , equation 1

N = 334.75 N, since P=268N

Then, using law of kinetic friction

Fr = μk • N

Fr = 0.22 × 334.75

Fr = 73.64 N

d. The required force to initiate motion is the force when the block want to overcome maximum frictional force.

So, Fnetx = Fr(max)

Px — Wx = Fr(max)

From equation 1

Fr(max) = 106.6 — 0.08551P,

P•Cosβ-W•Sinθ = 106.6 — 0.08551P

P•Cos20 — 441.45•Sin15 = 106.6 — 0.08551P

P•Cos20—114.256=106.6 - 0.08551P

PCos20+0.08551P =106.6 + 114.256

1.025P=220.856

P = 220.856/1.025

P = 215.43 N

Steve has a mass of 78 kg and is standing still on very slippery ice while holding a 2.5 kg can of peas. Steve throws the can to
anzhelika [568]
Answer: 0.28 m/s


Let

M1 = mass of Steve
V1 = velocity of Steve
M2 = mass of can
V2 = velocity of can

Because momentum is a conserved quantity:

P1 - P2 = 0

So

M1*V1 - M2*V2 = 0

78.0kg(V1) - 2.5kg(8.7m/s) = 0

78.0(V1) = 21.75

V1= 0.28 m/s
