Answer:

The angle of refraction for the ray moving through the liquid is = 32.3°

Explanation:

Refractive index of liquid (n₁/n₂) = sini/sinr

∴                 n₁/n₂ = sini/sinr ................ equation 1

n₁ = index of refraction for glass, n₂ = index of refraction for liquid

Where i = incident angle of the first medium, r = angle of refraction or angle in the second medium.

Since the light ray is traveling from glass - to - liquid,  the first medium is glass and the second medium is liquid. and the refractive index will be that liquid with respect to glass.

using the equation,

n₁/n₂ = sini/sinr

i = 35° , n₁ = 1.52, n₂= 1.63

Making sinr the subject of the equation above,

sinr = sini/(n₁/n₂)

sinr = sin35(1.52)/1.63

sinr =0.574(1.52)/1.63

sinr = 0.535

Taking the sin inverse of both side of the equation

sin⁻¹(sinr) = sin⁻¹(0.535)

∴ r = 32.3°

The angle of refraction for the ray moving through the liquid is = 32.3°

The right option is (b). 32.3°

The force that the book exerts on the table is a normal force, not a weight force. (The book's weight doesn't act on the table, it acts on the book.) It's equal in magnitude to the weight of the book, again, because of the first law.

A 400g sample of water absorbs 500j of energy. how did the water temperature change if the specific heat of water is 4.18j/g©. S
Mashutka [201]

In general, the quantity of heat energy, Q, required to raise a mass m kg of a substance with a specific heat capacity of <span>c </span>J/(kg °C), from temperature t1 °C to t2 °C is given by:

<span>Q </span>= <span>mc(t</span><span>2 </span><span>– t</span>1<span>) joules</span>

<span>So:</span>

(t2-t1) =Q / mc

<span>As we know:
Q = 500 J </span>

<span>m = 0.4 kg</span>

<span>c = 4180 J/Kg </span>°c

<span>We can take t1 to be 0</span>°c

t2 - 0 = 500 / ( 0.4 * 4180 )

t2 - 0 = 0.30°c

notka56 [123]

Explanation:

A metal such as copper is a <u>conductor</u> because it provides a pathway for electric charges to move easily. A material such as rubber is an <u>insulator</u> because it <u>resists</u> the flow of electric charges. A material that partially conducts electric current is a <u>semiconductor</u>. These materials include <u>group 3 and group 5</u> elements.
