As light shines from air to water, the index of refraction is 1.02 and the angle of incidence is 38.0 °. What is the light's an
muminat

Answer:

Light's angle of refraction = 37.1° (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Index of refraction = 1.02

Base of refraction = 1

Angle of incidence = 38°

Find:

Light's angle of refraction

Computation:

Using Snell's law;

Sin[Angle of incidence] / Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = Index of refraction / Base of refraction

Sin38 / Light's angle of refraction = 1.02 / 1

Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = Sin 38 / 1.02

Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = [0.6156] / 1.02

Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = 0.6035

Light's angle of refraction = 37.1° (Approx.)

A 60 kg sprinter has a momentum of +600 kg-m/s when he crosses the finish
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

10 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

The amount of momentum that an object has is dependent upon two factors

  • mass of the moving object  
  • speed of motion

In terms of an equation,

Momentum (P) = Mass(m)×velocity(v)

                     P = m×v

                 600 = 60 × v ⇒ v = 10 ms⁻¹

A woman takes her dog rover for a walk on a leash. She pulls on the leash with a force of 30.0 N at an angle of 29° above the ho
IrinaK [193]

19.8 N force is tending to lift Rover vertically off the ground.

<h3>What is horizontal and vertical component?</h3>

The horizontal velocity component (v_{x}) describes the influence of the velocity in displacing the projectile horizontally. The vertical velocity component (v_{y}) describes the influence of the velocity in displacing the projectile vertically.

According to the question,

The women pulls the dog with a force of 30 N at an angle of  29° from the horizontal.

Horizontal component=  30cos(29°) = 22.2 N

Vertical component = 30sin(29°) = 19.8 N

Therefore,

The horizontal component would tend to make the dog move forward and the vertical component would tend lift it off the ground.

Hence,

19.8 N force is tending to lift Rover vertically off the ground.

Ten identical steel wires have equal lengths L and equal "spring constants" k. The Young's modulus of each wire is Y. The wires
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

option (B)

Explanation:

Young's modulus is defined as the ratio of longitudinal stress to the longitudinal strain.

Its unit is N/m².

The formula for the Young's modulus is given by

Y=\frac{F \times L}{A\times \delta L}

where, F is the force applied on a rod, L is the initial length of the rod, ΔL is the change in length of the rod as the force is applied, A is the area of crossection of the rod.

It is the property of material of solid. So, when the 10 wires are co joined together to form a new wire of length 10 L, the material remains same so the young' modulus remains same.

A machine designed to stretch a stiff spring uses 1,550 J of energy to stretch the spring. If the work output is 1,200 J, what i
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

77%

Explanation:

efficiency= work output/work input X 100%

e = 1,200j/ 1,550 j x100%

e = 1,200/1,550= 0.77

e = 0.77 x 100%

e = 77%
