Answer:

i = 61 degree

Explanation:

Given,

\alpha =45^{o}

Now, by the snell's law

sin\theta_c=\frac{1}{n}\\sin\theta_c=\frac{1}{2.450}\\\theta_c=24.09^o

Now,

Sin i / sin r = n 2 / n 1

sin i / sin r (45 - 24.09) = 2.45 / 1

i = 60.97 degree

A jewellery melts 500g of Silver to pour into a mould. Calculate how much energy was released as the silver solidified.
irga5000 [103]

When silver is poured into the mould the it will solidify

In this process the phase of the Silver block will change from liquid to solid.

This phase change will lead to release in heat and this heat is known as latent heat of fusion.

The formula to find the latent heat of fusion is given as

Q = mL

here given that

m = mass = 500 g

L = 111 kJ/kg

now we can find the heat released

Q = 0.5 * 111 kJ

Q = 55.5 kJ

So it will release total heat of 55.5 kJ when it will solidify

A geneticist looks through a microscope to determine the phenotype of a fruit fly. The microscope is set to an overall magnifica
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

f_{e} = 1.7 cm

Explanation:

The magnification of the compound microscope is given by the product of the magnification of each lens

        M = M₀ m_{e}

        M = - L/f₀  25/f_{e}

Where f₀ and f_{e} are the focal lengths of the lens and eyepiece, respectively, all values ​​in centimeters

In this exercise they give us the magnification (M = 400X), the focal length of the lens (f₀ = 0.6 cm), the distance of the tube (L = 16 cm), let's look for the focal length of the eyepiece (f_{e})

         f_{e} = - L / f₀ 25 / M

Let's calculate

        f_{e} = - 16 / 0.6 25 / (-400)

        f_{e} = 1.67 cm

The minus sign in the magnification is because the image is inverted.

          f_{e} = 1.7 cm

Physics question, help please!

The change in potential energy when the block falls to ground is -480J.

The maximum change in kinetic energy of the ball is 480 J.

The initial kinetic energy of the ball is 0 J.

The final  kinetic energy of the ball is 0.148J.

The initial potential energy of the ball is 0.187 J.

The final  potential energy of the ball is 0 J.

The work done by the air resistance is 0.039 J.

<h3>Change in potential energy when the block falls to ground</h3>

ΔP.E = -mgh

ΔP.E = -Wh

ΔP.E = - 40 x 12

ΔP.E = -480 J

<h3>Maximum change in kinetic energy of the ball</h3>

ΔK.E = - ΔP.E

ΔK.E = - (-480 J)

ΔK.E = 480 J

<h3>Initial kinetic energy of the ball</h3>

K.Ei = 0.5mv²

where;

  • v is zero since it is initially at rest

K.Ei = 0.5m(0) = 0

<h3>Final kinetic energy</h3>

K.Ef =  0.5mv²

K.Ef = 0.5(0.0091)(5.7)²

K.Ef = 0.148 J

<h3>Initial potential energy of the ball</h3>

P.Ei = mghi

P.Ei = 0.0091 x 9.8 x 2.1

P.Ei = 0.187 J

<h3>Final potential energy</h3>

P.Ef = mghf

P.Ef = 0.0091 x 9.8 x 0

P.Ef = 0

<h3>Work done by the air resistance</h3>

W = ΔE

W = P.E - K.E

W = 0.187 J - 0.148 J

W = 0.039 J
