A ray moving in plastic at 62.9 deg enters water, where it bends to 70.9 deg. What is the index of refraction of the plastic?

Physics
1 answer:
DedPeter [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

refractive index of plastic is 1.42

Explanation:

When light ray enters from one medium to other medium then due to transition of light it bends away or towards the normal, this phenomenon is known as refraction of light

So here we know that

n_1 sin i = n_2 sin r

here we have

n_2 = \frac{4}{3}

i = 62.9^o

r = 70.9^o

now we have

n_1 sin62.9 = (\frac{4}{3}) sin70.9

n_1 = 1.42

The s.I unit of R so that the equation velocity= R × density S dimensionally correct R is a constant
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

R = m⁴/kg . s

Explanation:

In this case, the best way to solve this is working with the units in the expression.

The units of velocity (V) are m/s

The units of density (d) are kg/m³

And R is a constant

If the expression is:

V = R * d

Replacing the units and solving for R we have

m/s = kg/m³ * R

m * m³ / s = kg * R

R = m * m³ / kg . s

<h2>R = m⁴ / kg . s</h2>

This should be the units of R

Hope this helps

A 49.3 g ball of copper has a net charge of 2.0 µc. what fraction of the copper's electrons has been removed? (each copper atom
Serggg [28]
First, find how many copper atoms make up the ball: 
 moles of atoms = (49.3 g) / (63.5 g per mol of atoms) = 0.<span>77638</span><span>mol 
</span> # of atoms = (0.77638 mol) (6.02 × 10^23 atoms per mol) = 4.6738*10^23<span> atoms </span>

<span> There is normally one electron for every proton in copper. This means there are normally 29 electrons per atom:
</span> normal # electrons = (4.6738 × 10^23 atoms) (29 electrons per atom) = <span> <span>1.3554</span></span><span>× 10^25 electrons 
</span>
<span> Currently, the charge in the ball is 2.0 µC, which means -2.0 µC worth of electrons have been removed.
</span><span> # removed electrons = (-2.0 µC) / (1.602 × 10^-13 µC per electron) = 1.2484 × 10^13 electrons removed
 
</span><span> # removed electrons / normal # electrons = </span>
<span>(1.2484 × 10^13 electrons removed) / (1.3554 × 10^25 electrons) = 9.21 × 10^-13 </span>

<span> That's 1 / 9.21 × 10^13 </span>

A boat, whose speed in still water is 8.0 m/s, crosses a river with a current of 6.0 m/s. If the boat heads perpendicular to the
kirill [66]

Answer: D

Rs = 10.0 m/s

The speed of the boat relative to an observer standing on the shore as it crosses the river is 10.0m/s

Explanation:

Since the boat is moving perpendicular to the current of the river, the speed of the boat has two components.

i. 8.0m/s in the direction perpendicular to the current

ii. 6.0m/s in the direction of the current.

So, the resultant speed can be derived by using the equation;

Rs = √(Rx^2 + Ry^2)

Taking

Ry = 8.0m/s

Rx = 6.0m/s

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Rs = √(6.0^2 + 8.0^2)

Rs = √(36+64) = √100

Rs = 10.0 m/s

The speed of the boat relative to an observer standing on the shore as it crosses the river is 10.0m/s

Einstein and Lorentz, being avid tennis players, play a fast-paced game on a court where they stand 25.0 m from each other. Bein
Lerok [7]

Answer:

A) 199.78 J

B) 9.292x10^14 J

C) 4.2x10^7 m/s

D) 0.65 m

E) 1.13x10^-8 sec

D) 2.94x10^-9 sec

Explanation:

mass of ball = 0.0580 kg

A)

If smashed at v = 83.0 m/s, KE is

KE = 0.5mv^2

= 0.5 x 0.0580 x 83.0^2

= 199.78 J

B) if returned at v = 1.79×10^8 m/s, KE will be

KE = 0.5mv^2

= 0.5 x 0.0580 x (1.79×10^8)^2

= 9.292x10^14 J

C) during Einstein's return, velocity of rabbit relative to players is

Vr = 2.21×108 m/s

Rabbit's velocity relative to ball = 2.21×10^8 - 1.79×10^8

= 4.2x10^7 m/s

D) the rabbit's speed approaches the speed of light so we consider relativistic effect. The rabbit's measured distance is

l = l°( 1 - v^2/c^2)

= 2.5(1 - 2.21/3)

= 2.5 x 0.26

= 0.65 m

E) according to the players, the time taken by the rabbit is

t = d/v = 2.5/ 2.21×10^8

= 1.13x10^-8 sec

F) the time for rabbit as measured by rabbit is relativistic

t = t°( 1 - v^2/c^2)

= 1.13x10^-8 (1 - 2.21/3)

= 1.13x10^-8 x 0.26

= 2.94x10^-9 sec
