<h2>Answers: </h2>

1) 1.359, 1.403

2) 2.207(10)^{8}m/s,  2.138(10)^{8}m/s    

Explanation:

The described situation is known as Refraction.  

Refraction is a phenomenon in which a wave (the light in this case) bends or changes it direction when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.  

In this context, the Refractive index n is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material, and is defined as the relation between the speed of light in vacuum (c=3(10)^{8}m/s) and the speed of light v in the second medium:

n=\frac{c}{v}   (1)

On the other hand we have the Snell’s Law:  

n_{1}sin(\theta_{1})=n_{2}sin(\theta_{2})   (2)  

Where:  

n_{1} is the first medium refractive index . We are told is the air, hence n_{1}\approx 1

n_{2} is the second medium refractive index  

\theta_{1} is the angle of the incident ray  

\theta_{2} is the angle of the refracted ray  

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2><u>1) Indexes of refraction for red and violet light</u></h2><h2 /><h2>1a) Red light</h2>

Using equation (2) according to Snell's Law and \theta_{1}=57.0\º   \theta_{2}=38.1\º:

(1)sin(57.0\º)=n_{2}sin(38.1\º)  

Finding n_{2}:

n_{2}=\frac{sin(57.0\º)}{sin(38.1\º)}  

n_{2}=1.359   (3)>>>Index of Refraction for red light

<h2>1b) Violet light</h2>

Again, using equation (2) according to Snell's Law and \theta_{1}=57.0\º   \theta_{2}=36.7\º:

(1)sin(57.0\º)=n_{2}sin(36.7\º)  

Finding n_{2}:

n_{2}=\frac{sin(57.0\º)}{sin(36.7\º)}  

n_{2}=1.403   (4) >>>Index of Refraction for violet light

<h2><u>2) Speeds of red and violet light</u></h2><h2 /><h2>1a) Red light</h2>

Here we are going to use equation (1):

n_{red}=\frac{c}{v_{red}}

v_{red}=\frac{c}{n_{red}}

Substituting (3) in this equation:

v_{red}=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{1.359}

v_{red}=2.207(10)^{8}m/s >>>>Speed of red light

<h2>1a) Violet light</h2>

Using again equation (1):

n_{violet}=\frac{c}{v_{violet}}

v_{violet}=\frac{c}{n_{violet}}

Substituting (4) in this equation:

v_{violet}=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{1.403}

v_{red}=2.138(10)^{8}m/s >>>>Speed of violet light

Which statement accurately explains why the kinetic energy of the first rider is greater?
Dvinal [7]
Hey

The formula of kinetic energy is 1/2mv^2

So it depends on mass and velocity

As mass increases , kinetic energy increase .

So option b , the first rider had more mass is correct z

¿cual es la velocidad de un haz de electrones que marchan sin desviarse cuando pasan a traves de un campo magnetico perpendicula
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

La velocidad del haz de electrones es 1.78x10⁵ m/s. Este valor se obtuvo asumiendo que el campo magnético dado (3500007) estaba en tesla y que la fuerza venía dada en nN.

Explanation:

Podemos encontrar la velocidad del haz de electrones usando la Ley de Lorentz:

F = |q|vBsin(\theta)     (1)

En donde:

F: es la fuerza magnética = 100 nN

q: es el módulo de la carga del electron = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C

v: es la velocidad del haz de electrones =?

B: es el campo magnético = 3500007 T

θ: es el ángulo entre el vector velocidad y el campo magnético = 90°

Introduciendo los valores en la ecuación (1) y resolviendo para "v" tenemos:

v = \frac{F}{qBsin(\theta)} = \frac{100 \cdot 10^{-9} N}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*3500007 T*sin(90)} = 1.78 \cdot 10^{5} m/s            

Este valor se calculó asumiendo que el campo magnético está dado en tesla (no tiene unidades en el enunciado). De igual manera se asumió que la fuerza indicada viene dada en nN.

Entonces, la velocidad del haz de electrones es 1.78x10⁵ m/s.  

Espero que te sea de utilidad!

What is the acceleration of a dog that runs from 3 m/s to 6 m/s over a distance of 90m?
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

solution given:

acceleration (a)=?

initial velocity (u)=3m/s

final velocity (v)=6m/s

distance (s)=90m

we have

v²=u²+2as

substituting value

6²=3²+2*a*90

36=9+180a

36-9=180a

a=25/180

<u>a=0.1388m/s²</u>
