Answer:
n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2 Snell's Law (θ1 is the angle of incidence)
sin θ2 = n1 / n2 * sin θ1
sin θ2 = 2.4 / 1.33 * sin θ1
sin θ2 = 1.80 * .407 = .734
θ2 = 47.2 deg
The energy carried by a single photon of frequency f is given by:
where
is the Planck constant. In our problem, the frequency of the photon is
, and by using these numbers we can find the energy of the photon:
For this case, let's
assume that the pot spends exactly half of its time going up, and half going
down, i.e. it is visible upward for 0.245 s and downward for 0.245 s. Let us take
the bottom of the window to be zero on a vertical axis pointing upward. All calculations
will be made in reference to this coordinate system. <span>
An initial condition has been supplied by the problem:
s=1.80m when t=0.245s
<span>This means that it takes the pot 0.245 seconds to travel
upward 1.8m. Knowing that the gravitational acceleration acts downward
constantly at 9.81m/s^2, and based on this information we can use the formula:
s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2)
to solve for v, the initial velocity of the pot as it enters
the cat's view through the window. Substituting and solving (note that
gravitational acceleration is negative since this is opposite our coordinate
orientation):
(1.8m)=(v)(0.245s)+(1/2)(-9.81m/s^2)(0.245s)^2
v=8.549m/s
<span>Now we know the initial velocity of the pot right when it
enters the view of the window. We know that at the apex of its flight, the
pot's velocity will be v=0, and using this piece of information we can use the
kinematic equation:
(v final)=(v initial)+(a)(t)
to solve for the time it will take for the pot to reach the
apex of its flight. Because (v final)=0, this equation will look like
0=(v)+(a)(t)
Substituting and solving for t:
0=(8.549m/s)+(-9.81m/s^2)(t)
t=0.8714s
<span>Using this information and the kinematic equation we can find
the total height of the pot’s flight:
s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2) </span></span></span></span>
s=8.549m/s (0.8714s)-0.5(9.81m/s^2)(0.8714s)^2
s=3.725m<span>
This distance is measured from the bottom of the window, and
so we will need to subtract 1.80m from it to find the distance from the top of
the window:
3.725m – 1.8m=1.925m</span>
Answer:
<span>1.925m</span>
Answer:
Coordinates of event in system K are (x,y,z,t)=(5.103m , 3.7m , 3.7m , 1.57×10⁻⁸s)
Explanation:
To find the coordinates of event in system K ,we have to use inverse Lorentz transformation
So
for t
Coordinates of event in system K are (x,y,z,t)=(5.103m , 3.7m , 3.7m , 1.57×10⁻⁸s)
