Answer:

41.2°

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is the reflection of the incident ray at the interface between two media in which one of the media has a lower refractive index than the other. It occurs when the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle.

The critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium when the angle of incidence in the less dense medium is 90°.

Since

n= 1/sin C

C= sin^-(1/n)

C= sin^-(1/1.33)

C= 48.8°

Hence angle of incidence= 90-48.8 = 41.2°

A series of pulses, each of amplitude 0.1m , is sent down a string that is attached to a post at one end. The pulses are reflect
sp2606 [1]

The net displacement at a point on the string where the pulses cross is 0.2 m.

The term "displacement" refers to a shift in an object's position. It has a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity. An arrow pointing from the starting point to the finishing point serves as its symbol.

A string that is connected to a post at one end is used to transmit a sequence of pulses, each measuring 0.1 meters in amplitude.

At the post, the pulses are reflected and return along the string without losing any of their amplitude.

Now, let's say the ends are free.

There is no inversion on reflection if the end is free. The amplitude at their intersection is 2A.

Now, since A = 0.1 m

Then, 2A = 2(0.1) = 0.2 m

As a result, the net displacement at the string's intersection of two pulses is 0.2 m.

The correct option is (c).

All organisms in Kingdom Animalia are multicellular, meaning their bodies are composed of more than one cell. Which other charac
k0ka [10]
Well,

For the first one, the answer would be C, because all organisms in Kingdom Animalia must eat in order to survive.

For the second one, all of the options are in Kingdom Animalia, but worms (A) and clams (C) are invertebrates.  So that leaves options B and D.

In which situation is static electricity most likely to form?
Papessa [141]

Answer:

I'd go for 'Marie drives a car'

Explanation:

Static electricity will possible form in all the scenarios, but is more likely to form when you're driving a car. This is due to the friction between the body of the car and the particles in the air around the body of the car. This is why chains are sometimes attached to fuel tankers when transporting them. The chain is made to touch the ground so that any charge built up can be safely conducted to the earth, reducing the chances of a fire outbreak due to charges igniting the fuel.
