When touched by a plastic straw, the metal sphere will do what?

I believe that if you touch a metal sphere with a plastic straw, the straw would not have enough strength to push it. So in that case, the metal sphere will not move and will stay in one place.

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) $n_{2} = 1.349$

(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:

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

$n_{2} = 1.349$

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:

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

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

Is kinetic energy is always transformed into potential energy.

serious [3.7K]

Potential energy is energy stored in an object due to its position or arrangement. Kinetic energy is energy of an object due to its movement - its motion. All types of energy and be transformed into other types of energy. This is true for potential and Kinetic energy as well.

Is there gravitational force between two students sitting in a classroom?

drek231 [11]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation: the magnitude of the force is extremely small because the masses of the students are small relative to Earth's mass.
