A 5.75 × 107 kg battle ship originally at rest fires a 1100-kg artillery shell horizontally with a velocity of 550 m/s. show ans

wer No Attempt 50% Part (a) If the shell is fired straight aft (toward the rear of the ship), there will be negligible friction opposing the ship’s recoil. Calculate the recoil velocity of the ship, in meters per second, taking the firing direction to be the positive direction.

Answer:

-0.01052 m/s

Explanation:

M = mass of ship = 5.75\times 10^7\ kg

m = mass of shell = 1100 kg

v = velocity of shell = 550 m/s

u = recoil velocity of ship

As linear momentum is conserved

(M - m)u=-mv\\\Rightarrow u=-\frac{mv}{M - m}\\\Rightarrow u=-\frac{1100\times 550}{5.75\times 10^7+1100}\\\Rightarrow u=-0.01052\ m/s

The recoil velocity of the ship taking the firing direction to be the positive direction is -0.01052 m/s

A uniform magnetic field passes through a horizontal circular wire loop at an angle 19.5 ∘ from the vertical. The magnitude of t
nlexa [21]

To solve this problem, we will apply the concepts related to Faraday's law that describes the behavior of the emf induced in the loop. Remember that this can be expressed as the product between the number of loops and the variation of the magnetic flux per unit of time. At the same time the magnetic flux through a loop of cross sectional area is,

\Phi = BA Cos \theta

Here,

\theta = Angle between areal vector and magnetic field direction.

According to Faraday's law, induced emf in the loop is,

\epsilon= -N \frac{d\Phi }{dt}

\epsilon = -N \frac{(BAcos\theta)}{dt}

\epsilon = -NAcos\theta \frac{dB}{dt}

\epsilon = -N\pi r^2 cos\theta \frac{d}{dt} ( ( 3.75 T ) + ( 3.05T/s ) t + ( -6.95 T/s^2 ) t^2)

\epsilon = -N\pi r^2 cos\theta( (3.05T/s)-(13.9T/s)t )

At time t = 5.71s,  Induced emf is,

\epsilon = -(1) \pi (0.220m)^2 cos(19.5\°)(  (3.05T/s)-(13.9T/s)(5.71s))

\epsilon = 10.9V

Therefore the magnitude of the induced emf is 10.9V

When light propagates through two adjacent materials that have different optical properties, some interesting phenomena occur at
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

First, the different indices of refraction must be taken into account (in different media): for example, the refractive index of light in a vacuum is 1 (since vacuum = c).  The value of the refractive index of the medium is a measure of its "optical density":  Light spreads at maximum speed in a vacuum but slower in others  transparent media; therefore in all of them n> 1. Examples of typical values ​​of  are those of air (1,0003), water (1.33), glass (1.46 - 1.66) or diamond (2.42).

The refractive index has a maximum value and a minimum value, which we can calculate the minimum value by means of the following explanation:

The limit or minimum angle, α lim, is defined as the angle of refraction from which  the refracted ray disappears and all the light is reflected. As in the maximum value of  angle of refraction, from which everything is reflected, is βmax = 90º, we can  know the limit angle (the minimum angle that we would have to have to know the minimum index of refraction) by Snell's law:

 βmax = 90º ⇒ n 1x sin α (lim) = n 2 ⇒ sin α lim = n 2 / n 1

Explanation:

When a light ray strikes the separation surface between two media  different, the incident beam is divided into three: the most intense penetrates the second  half forming the refracted ray, another is reflected on the surface and the third is  breaks down into numerous weak beams emerging from the point of incidence in  all directions, forming a set of stray light beams.
