A stone is thrown up from the top of a tower. It reaches the ground in 5.64 seconds. A second stone is thrown down from the same

tower. They have the same initial velocity. This stone reaches the ground in 3.6 seconds. The height of the tower and the initial velocities aren't given. You need to find them.

A beam of light traveling through a liquid (of index of refraction n1 = 1.47) is incident on a surface at an angle of θ1 = 59° w

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

(a) $n_{2} = \frac{n_{1}sin\theta_{1}}{sin\theta_{2}}$

(b) $n_{2} = 1.349$

(c) $v_{1} = 2.04\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

(d) $v_{2} = 2.22\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

Solution:

As per the question:

Refractive index of medium 1, $n_{1} = 1.47$

Angle of refraction for medium 1, $\theta_{1} = 59^{\circ}$

Angle of refraction for medium 2, $\theta_{1} = 69^{\circ}$

Now,

(a) The expression for the refractive index of medium 2 is given by using Snell's law:

$n_{1}sin\theta_{1} = n_{2}sin\theta_{2}$

where

$n_{2}$ = Refractive Index of medium 2

Now,

$n_{2} = \frac{n_{1}sin\theta_{1}}{sin\theta_{2}}$

(b) The refractive index of medium 2 can be calculated by using the expression in part (a) as:

$n_{2} = \frac{1.47\times sin59^{\circ}}{sin69^{\circ}}$

$n_{2} = 1.349$

(c) To calculate the velocity of light in medium 1:

We know that:

$Refractive\ index,\ n = \frac{Speed\ of\ light\ in vacuum,\ c}{Speed\ of\ light\ in\ medium,\ v}$

Thus for medium 1

$n_{1} = \frac{c}{v_{1}$

$v_{1} = \frac{c}{n_{1} = \frac{3\times 10^{8}}{1.47} = 2.04\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

(d) To calculate the velocity of light in medium 2:

For medium 2:

$n_{2} = \frac{c}{v_{2}$

$v_{2} = \frac{c}{n_{1} = \frac{3\times 10^{8}}{1.349} = 2.22\times 10^{8}\ m/s$

Calculate the work done by a 50.0 N force on an object as it moves 9.00 m, if the force is oriented at an angle of 135° from the

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Work done, W = -318.19 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on the object, F = 50 N

Distance covered by the force, d = 9 m

Angle between the force and the distance traveled, $\theta=135^{\circ}$

The work done by an object is equal to the product of force and distance traveled. It is equal to the dot product of force and the distance. Mathematically, it is given by :

$W=Fd\ cos\theta$

$W=50\times 9\times \ cos(135)$

W = -318.19 Joules

So, the work done by the force is 318.19 Joules. The work is done in opposite to the direction of motion. Hence, this is the required solution.

A plane on the ground will weigh:

kenny6666 [7]

On ground weight of plane will be measured as its actual weight which will be given as

$W = mg$

now when plane is in air its weight is measured as combined effect of earth gravitational force and buoyancy force both

so weight in air will be given as

$W_{air} = mg - F_b$

here since net effect due to air is opposite to the direction of weight so in air the plane weight will be measure less than its weight on ground.

so answer will be

A)more than a plane in the air
