Answer:

The flashlight leaves the water at an angle of 51.77°.

Explanation:

if n1 = 1.33 is the refractive index of water and ∅1 is the angle at which the flashlight shine beneath the water, and n2 = 1.0 is the refractive index of air and ∅2 is the angle the flashlight leaves the water.

Then, according to Snell's law :

n1×sin(∅1) = n2×sin(∅2)

sin(∅2) = n1×sin(∅1)/n2

           = (1.33)×sin(36.2)/(1.0)

           = 0.7855055×379

     ∅2 = 51.77°

Therefore, the flashlight leaves the water at an angle of 51.77°.

2. A pebble is dropped down a well and hits the water 1.5 s later. Using the equations for motion with constant acceleration, de
kow [346]

Answer:

S = 11.025 m

Explanation:

Given,

The time taken by the pebble to hit the water surface is, t = 1.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

Using the II equations of motion

                          S = ut + 1/2 gt²

Here u is the initial velocity of the pebble. Since it is free-fall, the initial velocity

                                u = 0

Therefore, the equation becomes

                            S = 1/2 gt²

Substituting the given values in the above equation

                              S = 0.5 x 9.8 x 1.5²

                                 = 11.025 m

Hence, the distance from the edge of the well to the water's surface is, S = 11.025 m

A time-dependent but otherwise uniform magnetic field of magnitude B0(t) is confined in a cylindrical region of radius 6.5 cm. I
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

a = 603.59 m/s^2

Explanation:

from the data given . the rate of change in magnetic field is as follow

\frac{dB}{dt} = 280 G/s = 280 \times 10^{-4} T/s

from the faraday's law of induction , the expression for the induced emf in region of radius r as follow

\epsilon = \frac{d \phi}{dt}

\int E.dl = \frac{d(BA)}{dt}

E(2\pi r)= \pi r^2 \frac{dB}{dt}

E = \frac{r}{2} \frac{dB}{dt}

electric field at point P_1 as follow

E = \frac{r}{2} \frac{dB}{dt}

E = \frac{1.5\times 10^{-2}}{2} 280 \times 10^{-4}

E = 6.3\times 10^{-6} V/m

from newton 2nd law of motion, the acceleration of proton is

F = ma

qE = ma

a = \frac{qE}{m}

a = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19} (6.3\times 10^{-6})}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}

a = 603.59 m/s^2

A proton and an electron are moving in the +x direction in a magnetic field in the +z
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

A proton and electron are moving in the positive x direction, this shows that their velocity will be in the positive x direction

V = v•i

Magnetic field Is the positive z direction

B = B•k

A. For proton.

Proton has a positive charge of q

Direction of force on proton

Force is given as

F = q(v×B)

F = q( v•i × B•k)

F = qvB (i×k)

From vectors i×k = -j

F = -qvB •j

Then, for the positive charge, the force will act in the negative direction of the y-axis

B. For electron

Electron has a negative of -q

Direction of force on proton

Force is given as

F = q(v×B)

F = -q( v•i × B•k)

F = -qvB (i×k)

From vectors i×k = -j

F = --qvB •j

F = qvB •j

Then, for the negative charge, the force will act in the positive direction of the y-axis

alculate the kinetic energies of (a) a 2.00×103-kg automobile moving at 100.0 km/h; (b) an 80.0-kg runner sprinting at 10.0 m/s;
zzz [600]

Answer:

(a) 7.72×10⁵ J

(b) 4000 J

(c) 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy: This can be defined energy of a body due to its motion. The expression for kinetic energy is given as,

Ek = 1/2mv²................... Equation 1

Where Ek = Kinetic energy, m = mass, v = velocity

(a)

For a moving automobile,

Ek = 1/2mv².

Given: m = 2.0×10³ kg, v = 100 km/h = 100(1000/3600) m/s = 27.78 m/s

Substitute into equation 1

Ek = 1/2(2.0×10³)(27.78²)

Ek = 7.72×10⁵ J

(b)

For a sprinting runner,

Given: m = 80 kg, v = 10 m/s

Substitute into equation 1 above,

Ek = 1/2(80)(10²)

Ek = 40(100)

Ek = 4000 J

(c)

For a moving electron,

Given: m = 9.10×10⁻³¹ kg, v = 2.0×10⁷ m/s

Substitute into equation 1 above,

Ek = 1/2(9.10×10⁻³¹)(2.0×10⁷)²

Ek = 1.82×10⁻¹⁶ J
