A baseball is accelerated downward at 9.8 m/s^2 when the only vertical force acting upon the baseball is gravity.
Answer:
I think it has something to do with both inertia and gravity?
Explanation:
(a)
Critical angle is the angle at the angle of refraction is 90°. After the critical angle, no refraction takes place.
Using Snell's law as:
Where,
is the angle of incidence
is the angle of refraction = 90°
is the refractive index of the refraction medium
is the refractive index of the incidence medium
Thus,
The formula for the calculation of critical angle is:
Where,
is the critical angle
(b)
No it cannot occur. It only occur when the light ray bends away from the normal which means that when it travels from denser to rarer medium.
Answer:
50 J
Explanation:
The net force acting on the box is given by the algebraic sum of the two forces, so:

The net work done on the box is equal to (assuming the net force is parallel to the displacement of the object)

where
F = 5 N is the net force on the object
d = 10 m is the displacement of the object
Substituting,
