Answer:

$49.7^{\circ}$

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Snell's law:

$n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2$

where

n1 = 1.33 is the index of refraction of the first medium (water)

n2 = 1.00 is the index of refraction of the second medium (air)

$\theta_1 = 35^{\circ}$ is the angle of incidence of the wave in water

$\theta_2$ is the angle of refraction of the wave in air

Solving for the angle of refraction,

$sin \theta_2 = \frac{n_1 sin \theta_1}{n_2}=\frac{(1.33) sin 35^{\circ}}{1.00}=0.763\\\theta_2 = sin^{-1} (0.763)=49.7^{\circ}$

Coherent light of frequency 6.37×1014 Hz passes through two thin slits and falls on a screen 88.0 cm away. You observe that the

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The distance between the two slits is 40.11 μm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency $f= 6.37\times10^{14}\ Hz$

Distance of the screen l = 88.0 cm

Position of the third order y =3.10 cm

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

where, c = speed of light

f = frequency

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{6.37\times10^{14}}$

$\lambda=471\ nm$

We need to calculate the distance between the two slits

$m\times \lambda=d\sin\theta$

$d =\dfrac{m\times\lambda}{\sin\theta}$

Where, m = number of fringe

d = distance between the two slits

Here, $\sin\theta =\dfrac{y}{l}$

Put the value into the formula

$d=\dfrac{3\times471\times10^{-9}\times88.0\times10^{-2}}{3.10\times10^{-2}}$

$d=40.11\times10^{-6}\ m$

$d = 40.11\ \mu m$

Hence, The distance between the two slits is 40.11 μm.

Under what condition will a glass lens placed in a transparent medium becomes invisible??

Viktor [21]

Answer:

A lens placed in a transparent liquid becomes invisible because when refractive index of the material of the lens is equal to the refractive index of the liquid in which lens is placed under this condition no bending of light takes place when it travels from liquid to the lens, so both will start behaving like both are same things.

Take the mechanical equivalent of heat as 4 J/cal. A 10-g bullet moving at 2000 m/s plunges

klasskru [66]

Assuming that all the bullet’s energy heats the paraffin, its final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of the material.

The energy of the bullet E = 1/2 mv²

E = 1/2 x 10 x 10⁻³ x (2000)²

E = 2 x 10⁴ J

This heat is used in heating the paraffin

E = m x c ΔT = m x c (Tfinal -Tinitial)

2 x 10⁴ J = 1 x 2.8 x 10³ x (Tfinal -20)

Tfinal = 27.1°C

Thus, the final temperature is 27.1 degree C. The correct option is D.
