A ray of laser light travels through air and enters an unknown material. The laser enters the material at an angle of 36 degrees

to the normal. The refracted angle is 27.5 degrees. If the index of refraction of air is n = 1.00, what is the index of refraction of the unknown material?

Answer:1.27

Explanation:

Given

incident angle i=36^{\circ}

refracted angle r=27.5^{\circ}

Suppose n_2 is the refractive index of material then using Snell's law we  can write

n_1\sin i=n_2\sin r

where n_1=refractive index of air

1\times \sin (36)=n_2\times \sin (27.5)

n_2=\dfrac{0.5877}{0.4617}

n_2=1.27

Answer:

See attached document

Explanation:

Entire process for deriving the asked expression dV across the bridge as function of dP is illustrated in the attachment below.

The document gives a step-by step process for arriving at the expression. However, manipulation of algebraic equations is skipped for the conciseness of the document.

It also gives the expression for the case when all resistors have different nominal values.

2. A truck speeds up from a velocity of 6 m/s to 14 m/s in 4 seconds. What is the trucks acceleration? SHOW YOUR WORK
zavuch27 [327]

#2

As it is given here

initial speed is

v_i = 6 m/s

After 4 seconds the final speed is

v_f = 14 m/s

so here we can use the formula of acceleration using kinematics

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{14 - 6}{4}

a = 2 m/s^2

so here it will accelerate at 2 m/s^2 rate.

#3

As it is given here

initial it starts from rest

v_i = 0 m/s

After 2.5 seconds the final speed is

v_f = 15 m/s

so here we can use the formula of acceleration using kinematics

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{15 - 0}{2.5}

a = 6 m/s^2

so here it will accelerate at 6 m/s^2 rate.


#4

i think question is not correct as in first line it is saying about a bag of trash and then in next line it is asking for the position of Jumper and bridge.
