Answer:

The index of refraction of the liquid is 1.35.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Critical angle for a certain air-liquid surface, \theta_1=47.7^{\circ}

Let n₁ is the refractive index of liquid and n₂ is the refractive index of air, n₂ =1

Using Snell's law for air liquid interface as :

n_1\ sin\theta_1=n_2\ sin(90)

n_1\ sin(47.7)=1

n_1=\dfrac{1}{sin(47.7)}

n_1=1.35

So, the index of refraction of the liquid is 1.35. Hence, this is the required solution.

Protons in an atomic nucleus are typically 10−15 m apart. what is the electric force (in n) of repulsion between nuclear protons
dybincka [34]
<span>The electric force is given by: 
 F = [ k*(q1)*(q2) ] / d^2 
 F = Electric force 
 k = Coulomb's constant 
 q1 = Charge of one proton 
 q2 = Charge of second proton 
 d = Distance between centers of mass 
 Values: 
 F = unknown 
 k = 8.98E 9 N-m^2/C^2 
 q1 = 1.6E-19 
 q2 = 1.6E-19 
 d = 1.0E-15 m 
 Insert values into F = [ k*(q1)*(q2) ] / d^2 
 F = [ (8.98E 9 N-m^2/C^2) * (1.6E-19) * (1.6E-19) ] / (1.0E-15 m)^2 
 F = </span>229.888 N
 answer
 the electric force of repulsion between nuclear protons is 229.888 N

If earth rotated on an axis that was not tilted, how would this affect the seasons?
VARVARA [1.3K]
If earth was not tilted on a axis, we wouldn't have any seasons. we wouldn't have seasons because the axis tilts us towards or away from the sun, and if you're tilted torwards the sun the sun you would have summer. if you're tilted away from the sun, you have winter. if there was no axis, the temperature would be the same all around the earth, so therefore we would not have seasons. 

hopefully this helps

A continuous line of charge lies along the x axis, extending from x = +x0 to positive infinity. The line carries positive charge
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

 E = k λ₀ / x₀, the field is in thenegative direction of the x axis (-x)

Explanation:

In this problem the electric field of a line of charge is requested, the expression for the electric field is

          E = k ∫ dq / r²

where k is the Coulomb constant that you are worth 9 10⁹ N m²/C², that the charge and r the distance to the point of interest, in this case it is the origin (x = 0)

let's use the definite linear density

        λ₀ = dq / dx

        dq = λ₀ dx

we replace and integrate

       E = k λ₀ ∫ dx / x²

       E = k λ₀ ( -1 / x)

we evaluate the integral from the lower limit of load x = x₀ to the upper limit x = ∞

       E = - k λ₀ (1 /∞ - 1 / x₀)

       E = k λ₀ / x₀

     

as the field is positive the direction is away from the charges, so it is in the negative direction of the x axis (-x)
